Bait ladle, Hotei bamboo, lacquer finish

These are two baitcasting ladle handles, modified from commercially available ones by replacing the original handles with bamboo and applying either lacquer paint or varnish coating. They have been used for fishing trips, and as you can see in the photos, the paint has chipped off in places, revealing the bamboo, and there are some scratches. However, there are no issues with their use. I put a lot of time and effort into making them and have grown attached to them, but I no longer go fishing, so I am putting them up for sale. Thank you for your consideration.

Thank you for viewing.
