Wayward Trading Post Update and Fly Fishing Net Giveaway

Trout handle classic christmas.png
Tina Lewis started Wayward Trading Post in hopes of offering some unique art valued by anglers in the local fly fishing region with hand-made fly fishing nets. Wayward has been expanding and growing their reach to more than just the region.

I had a chance to visit her shop last year and learned firsthand her accomplished work in making her handcrafted wooden fly fishing nets. A fun operation in the Philly suburbs working out of her father’s garage.

Follow along to learn how you can enter for a chance to win one of these beautiful artisan-made fly fishing nets from Wayward Trading Post.

Latest Updates
Since Tina opened her shop a few years ago, a lot has happened. Recently, she has developed a custom-designed net in conjunction with TCO, a keystone state fly fishing retailer. The Madison River Fishing Company has selected her nets as part of their new product catalog. The list of retailers carrying Pennsylvania-made goods keeps growing, and the biggest news has yet to drop. Wayward is now a wooden net manufacturer for Orvis. This start-up has gone from a sawdust-filled wood-shop in Philadelphia to having an account with the largest brand in our sport.

Hand-crafted Nets
All the nets at Wayward Trading Post are sourced from Pennsylvania wood, using mostly walnut, hickory, and cherry. Each net is created by gluing together strips of wood to form the hoop and adding a previously crafted handle to the glued-up hoop, setting the pieces into a mold. Once the glue is set, which takes about a day, the net is then planed, sanded, and engraved before being treated and having a rubber net attached. It's a very detailed process indeed and personalized for custom orders.

Along with her nets now being available across the region and country, you can contact her directly to have a personalized net created for you or a friend. This makes for a great and special holiday gift for any angler.
