Zach,
I was looking around for a long handle trout net a while ago and I also stumbled over Sperry Woodworks and their nice loking and decently priced products.
As having to have things shipped abroad is allways the biggest obstacle in my case I hesitated to place a “trial” order. Still very interested in their nets I´d love to hear about your impressions once you have your´s in hand.
Did you check with Brodin for their “down to earth” product line (forgot the name but I think these were even less than Sperrey´s…)
