Barcaza Smith Root SR-7

Simplify Electrofishing in Wide Streams with the Smith-Root SR-7 Tote Barge

Ideal for wadeable but wide streams: portable barge with adjustable electrofishing system, up to 3 anodes, and integrated livewell

The Smith-Root SR-7 Tote Barge is a portable barge designed for electrofishing surveys in water bodies that are too large for backpack units. This mobile solution allows biologists to move easily through shallow streams thanks to its flat-bottom design and minimal draft. It includes a fully adjustable electrofisher, capacity for up to three anodes, and a compartment to keep fish alive during sampling. It is ideal for operations where maneuverability, stability, and efficiency are crucial.

Key Features:

• Durable Design: One-piece polyethylene construction withstands motor vibration and is easy to clean.
• Adjustable Electrofisher: Compatible with Smith-Root systems like the Apex, secured with rubber straps and mounted on shock absorbers.
• Support for 3 Anodes: Allows simultaneous use of up to three anode poles for maximum coverage.
• Integrated Livewell: Safely transports live fish during sampling.
• Standard Bucket Capacity: Includes support for three 5-gallon buckets for specimens or tools.
• Insulated Handlebar with Safety Switch: Automatically shuts off power output when one or both handles are released.
• High Buoyancy: Flat design supports 80 lb per inch of draft, offering excellent stability and load capacity.
