ABSTRACT:
Aquatic weeds are harvested by dragging a cable through such weeds in a direction substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the cable while rotating the cable around its longitudinal axis, whereby the weeds are wound around the cable and thus pulled from the bottom of the waterway. The cable passes around a drum on a frame, the frame and cable being rotated together on a platform. The platform is mounted on a land or water based vehicle. The calbe can be winched into the frame between blades which cut the weeds from the cable.
