The design and use of large buoyant seine‐type nets for sampling coarse fish fry are described. These nets have been used over 2 years to take a total of ninety 100 m 3 and 200 m 3 quantitative samples from the shallow littoral region of an artificial storage reservoir. The performance of the gear is assessed and the efficiency evaluated.
