Then Sharpe's of Aberdeen built a reputation for quality and innovation and this continues today. Sharpe's of Aberdeen landing nets (we made the original Gye nets and they are made to the same exacting standards and materials today as when they were first made) and wading staffs that faithfully follow a long standing design and are widely regarded as the industry standard and market leaders.
