Versatile Carbon Fiber Fly Fishing Landing Net Built for Rivers, Streams, and Boat Fishing

The Fishpond Nomad Middle Fork 2.0 Net is a true go-anywhere, do-everything fly fishing landing net, designed for anglers who need versatility, durability, and fish-friendly performance across a wide range of fishing environments. Whether you’re navigating tight brush along a small mountain creek, wading a large western trout river, or landing fish from a drift boat, the Middle Fork delivers the reach, control, and reliability serious anglers depend on.

Built using a carbon fiber and fiberglass composite frame, the Nomad Middle Fork 2.0 provides exceptional strength while remaining remarkably lightweight. The extended handle design offers additional reach when landing fish in deeper water or across current seams, while the balanced hoop size gives anglers excellent control without feeling bulky or cumbersome.

This net integrates seamlessly into the net sleeves of sling packs, backpacks, lumbar packs, and vests, and its streamlined hoop shape helps prevent snags when bushwhacking through tight streamside vegetation.

Equipped with Fishpond’s PVC-free TPU rubber net bag, the Middle Fork is built for modern catch-and-release fishing. This durable, fish-safe basket is lighter and stronger than traditional rubber or nylon alternatives and stretches farther before failure, ensuring long-term reliability while protecting fish.

The integrated measuring scale on the handle (up to 35 inches) allows anglers to quickly document trophy trout before release—perfect for anglers who like to verify their fish tales on the water.

Ideal For

  • Trout anglers fishing rivers and streams
  • Walk-and-wade fly fishing
  • Drift boat and raft fishing
  • Backcountry and mountain stream fishing
  • Guides and traveling anglers
  • Catch-and-release trout fishing
