DEVICE FOR THE REMOVAL OF AQUATIC VEGETATION ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An aquatic harvester device is disclosed for the safe and efficient removal of vegetation from a river, lake or ocean bed. The harvester device comprises a mesh-form, rigid, elongate body of generally S-shaped cross-section, which has a raised forward face with a smooth edge and a downwardly extending rearward face carrying a plurality of spikes or teeth. In operation, the smooth-edged forward face engages the vegetation while the teeth disposed on the rearward face of the device uproot the plants, effectively removing the plants from the water bed. A method of using the aquatic harvester device is also disclosed and comprises the steps of: lowering the aquatic harvester device to the floor of a body of water at a suitable distance from shore, over which distance it is desired to clear vegetation; pulling the harvester device while submerged over the floor of the body of water towards the shore, the forward face of the device engaging underwater vegetation while the teeth of the rearward face uproot same. The uprooted plants are carried with the harvester device for the duration of operation; and can be released from the harvester device after retrieval of the harvester device from the body of water.
