Review: Kind of small but that is a good thing - So as a naturalist I am a big aquatics fan. Some of the insects I look for like dragonflies and damselflies have mostly aquatic lifestyles. This is a great tool for kids and grownups to use when dip netting. I have used this many times and it is very nice. A bit small but it works well. I like the small size for it keeps you from getting massive amounts of algae and things in your water buckets. I dip net with kids and other groups in what I do and I never leave home with out it. You never know when you might want to poke around for a few scuds, a few water fleas, water scorpions, and other cool aquatic arthropods. Nature tools are the best and if you are into aquatics you don't have to have some of those big nets that will collect all the sticks and muck that you can hardly rifle through. These work just as fine. I would add you might want to add a wrist band on these puppies for I was doing a research project in a river and I almost lost it. Luckily the river was still in the area I was in and I found it. Yeah... talk about a close shave of losing a neat tool.
Review: Good quality. - As expected. Cheaper than some but definitely not the cheapest i have seen. Paying slightly more did keep me from having to go into Hell (Walmart)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Economical. Easy to clean
*by S***L on October 28, 2025*

I used this net to scoop 'things' out of the birth tub during water labors and water births. Worked well. I will not be reusing it, but it was easy enough to clean. Economically priced.
