The efficiency of a cantilevered bridle net was tested in comparison with a Wisconsin net and a pumping system to sample zooplankton organisms in three water layers (epi-, meta- and hypolimnion) of three Canadian Shield lakes. Variations among samplers were compared to variations due to within-lake vertical distribution of zooplankters and among lake variations. For each lake and water layer, we also assessed the efficiency of the three methods according to the catches of zooplanktonic taxa. The highest percentages of variationweregenerallyduetolakeorwater-layereffects;interactionbetweensamplinggearsandwaterlayers wasabove50%formosttaxa,exceptcladoceran.Samplingmethodsexplainedmorevariationthanthelake effect for some zooplankton taxa, indicating that using different sampling devices could potentially alter the among-lake variation interpretation of zooplankton abundance.
