Description

This is a trawl that can be towed through the water to collect samples of all particulate material, zooplankton, etc suspended in the water column. The pricing for a commercial one is roughly $135. The model is useful for anyone who needs to collect water samples. One would need to provide their own flotation devices, net, and weights to attatch to the main body.
