Works great
Took it out to the local pond and within minutes had a full bottle of plankton. Works great. Only concern is that there is no lids to the bottles, and the rope can easily disconnect from the plankton net.

Good net. Tow line & ring are too small.
The net worked fine, but I worry about the strength of the open-loop ring on the harness. It held OK up to 3 knots towing speed, but could be temporarily subjected to greater stress in field work. I have added a thicker tow line ( for better handling) and intend to replace the tow ring with a stronger closed ring or shackle.

I am very pleased with it
The net was everything that I expected. I am very pleased with it.

The ring for attachment is steel and will rust completely away long before the net goes bad
It's a great set up except someone was trying to save money and did not use stainless steel (or aluminum or brass or other marine durable material) and instead used plain steel. It's a shame....everything else about this unit is a nice upgrade from cheaper "toy" grade versions.

Three Stars
No instructions how to mount the collection tube - will replace w a soda bottle I think

Mesh size too large.
Only collects large zooplankton, large collection container comes without storage lid. Secondary filtration necessary.

The metal ring inside the fabric broke easily
After a couple uses the aluminum ring sewn inside the sleeve broke .It is aluminum, I'm pretty sure, so it will be very difficult to weld back together.

disappointing
It was not clear how to use the rings and the cup. No instructions included. A much cheaper kid's net worked far better. not recommended.
