Guy at bait shop had to sell them listed as fancy carp instead of koi. He bought them from some bait dealer in Arkansas. Well, I had a few left in a basket floating in my parents' pond. My mom felt sorry for them and turned them loose. WE know have a big koi pond.:). I can tell you one thing they are smart and fun to catch on the fly rod. So many colors and variants. Some have gotten very big over the years!

It was due to Cameron’s blog a few weeks ago that I was introduced to Hellbenders nets and the discount offered persuaded me to make the leap from my cheapo net to an heirloom. I had been looking for a longer handled net and was about ready to lay out the cash for an aluminum big name brand my friend had just acquired. Luckily, TFM saved the day! I was (and am still) awestruck by the beauty and simplicity of these nets. An added bonus was the excellent communication from Hellbender and a surprise extra gift of some hand tied flies as well as a handwritten thank you note. Truly, a top notch small business all around. Seeing how the process is carried out only adds to the pleasure of owning and using this net for me.Mojohandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11422202894003288827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9072465054494499379.post-19938799399189429752023-05-28T11:11:31.462-04:002023-05-28T11:11:31.462-04:00just ordered a couple. 25% is a home run! happy to...just ordered a couple. 25% is a home run! happy to find rod tubes available. nctruckernctruckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07040777193346621894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9072465054494499379.post-55721424418190303532023-05-18T12:56:13.652-04:002023-05-18T12:56:13.652-04:00Thanks!
