Blue Ribbon Nets

The company was started in 2000 here in Bozeman, Montana. We all love fly fishing, but what really draws us to the sport is the nostalgic experience. The idea of being in nature, teaching your kids to fish, learning from friends, and the tradition behind it all.

 

That’s what led us to start making fly fishing nets that were traditional, heirloom quality, and functional. Starting out we thought, let’s just design something new, yet traditional and see where it goes. So we started exploring what it would take to design a unique fly fishing net.

 

The thrill came from the challenge of designing an ultra light rubber net bag it hadn’t been done before. The end result was our trademarked BRN AquaFade Ultralight rubber net. The design is unique because it mimics the look of a Native American dream catcher. An homage to our Native American owners, the Little Shell Tribe of Montana. Today, over a decade later, we provide the distinguished fly fisherman a net that is not only functional, but timeless.
