What Is the Fish Dip Net Used For?
The flat edge of a D-shaped frame sits flush against a stream bed, pond floor or tank bottom, so very little escapes underneath. Students use it for kick sampling, where the net is held on the bed while the gravel just upstream is disturbed so that dislodged animals drift in, and for sweeping through weed beds and along banks to catch small fish, nymphs and snails. The 4 ft handle lets them reach out from the bank while keeping their feet on firm ground.
Because the net is encased in the monorail bow, it is not dragged directly over stones and sand, which reduces wear on the mesh. Empty the catch by turning the bag inside out into a tray of water, and rinse the net before moving to a new site. Hang it to dry after use. It is a dependable part of an ecology science kit for school and college stream studies.
