I see what looks like Koa, Walnut, Lacewood, mahogany and maple.

Am I close?

Looks nice!

What you probably think is Koa in the right pic is Curly Cherry

Well I don’t care for fishing – but if I were to take it up it would be to use a beautiful landing net like that one. Outstanding job.

I love how you one-upped the nets you can get down at the local market with the fish-tail handle. Nice touch. I can’t think of anything more satisfying than catching a fish on a fly I tied, and landed in a net I made. Thanks for the inspiration.
