Its 1 x 1 meter square frame with 500 micron mesh balances capture efficiency with durability across varying water conditions. The white net enhances visibility as you disturb the substrate, helping you observe which organisms enter the mesh. Hemmed sides securely hold poles for quick deployment, and a reinforced bottom seam adds strength to anchor the net in flowing water.
