ABSTRACT:
A skimmer for removal of debris suspended in a clogged bore includes a handle having a strainer basket assembly at one end and a wrist loop at the other end. The strainer basket assembly includes a hinge block to which more than one strainer basket portion is pivotally attached. Each strainer basket portion is foramenated and attached to the hinge block in a manner such that when the strainer basket assembly is inserted into a clogged bore the strainer basket portions pivot to a closed position and when the strainer basket is withdrawn from the clogged bore the strainer basket portions are pivoted to an open position to catch and remove debris. In different embodiments of the invention there are weights and stops incorporated to facilitate pivoting of the strainer basket portions to the open position.
