Surber Stream Bottom Sampler

This Surber sampler is designed for sampling riffle areas in streams and rivers up to a depth of about 18″. It consists of two folding stainless steel frames set at right angles to each other. The horizontal frame encloses an area of 12″x 12″ and marks out the limits of the sampling area. Attached to the vertical frame is a net to catch the invertebrates as they are dislodged from the substrate. The net is approximately two feet in length and is made of tough, rot -resistant 500 micron (35 mesh per inch) NITEX monofilament net. The Surber Stream Bottom Sampler folds flat for easy storage and comes complete with a wooden carrying case to protect the net when not in use. A base height extension may also be used when the horizontal frame must penetrate into the actual stream bed itself. Replacement NITEX nets and samplers with other micron net sizes are available.
