If you have a pool, then one of the most important things you will need for your pool is a pool net. Without a pool net, your pool can become pretty dirty. Pool nets are great because they are easy to use and effective.
Our 17" wide Pro-Strength Pool Leaf Rake is the ultimate tool for removing leaves, twigs and insects from all depths of your pool. Our rake is designed with an extra-strength plastic frame and 14-inch net, so it's capable of scooping large loads of sodden leaves out of your pool with ease. The Pro-Strength Rake also includes a beveled, leading edge for lifting debris from the floor and better scooping power.
The leaf rakes netting is specially made for use in both above-ground and in-ground pools. The frame is covered with a plastic guard to protect your pool deck and edges form marring. Made to connect to tele-poles using EZ clips to clean out deep pool bottoms and hard-to-reach corners, these leaf rakes hold more debris at a time, ultimately reducing cleaning time.
Durable ABS plastic frame
When searching for pool nets look for mesh blends that are not easily ripped or torn. Pool nets should have wide mouths that can catch anything that might fall from a tree or flow in from a strong wind.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this skimmer help me keep my spa crystal-clear for nightly relaxation rituals?
Yes. The fine-mesh double-layer nylon bag captures hair, skin particles, leaves, and floating debris before they sink and cloud your spa water, so every evening soak feels clean, fresh, and inviting as part of your wind-down routine.
Can I use this to maintain a clean fountain for my meditation garden?
Absolutely. The lightweight 1-pound build and gentle fine-mesh bag make it ideal for skimming pollen, leaves, and petals from decorative fountains and reflection pools in meditation or wellness gardens without disturbing the water's surface calm.
Is the skimmer gentle enough for use in a jetted hot tub with sensitive skin?
Yes. The soft nylon mesh and smooth rounded plastic frame will not scratch or irritate sensitive skin. Many spa owners prefer a manual skimmer over robotic or suction cleaners because it provides quiet, controlled cleaning that complements a calming soak.
Does manual skimming feel like a mindful outdoor chore or a hassle?
Many wellness-minded owners treat their morning or evening skimming routine as a mindful outdoor ritual. The lightweight frame and quiet operation let you focus on the water, the sky, and your breath while you clear the pool — turning maintenance into a small moment of presence.
How does this compare to an automatic pool cleaner for spa wellness use?
Automatic cleaners can be noisy, disruptive, and use electricity near the water. A manual skimmer is silent, chemical-free, and lets you skim exactly where you see debris, preserving the calm atmosphere of your spa or hot tub retreat.
Will daily skimming help me avoid harsh chemical treatments in my spa?
Yes. By removing organic debris before it breaks down in the water, you reduce the burden on your spa's sanitizer system. Many wellness-focused owners find that consistent manual skimming lets them use fewer chemicals overall, supporting cleaner water and clearer air.
Is the skimmer quiet enough to use during a sunrise yoga session by the pool?
Yes. Unlike electric or battery-powered cleaners, this manual skimmer operates in complete silence. You can skim the pool before or during your morning routine without disrupting meditation, breathwork, or a peaceful poolside stretch.
Can I use this skimmer in a cold plunge or ice bath setup?
The molded plastic frame and nylon mesh handle cold water well and will not become brittle in low temperatures. It is a great tool for keeping leaves and debris out of cold plunge pools between uses.
Will the fine mesh capture pollen that triggers my spring allergies?
Yes. The double-layer fine mesh is designed to capture very small particles including pollen, seed pods, and dust that float on the water surface. Regular skimming helps reduce the pollen count in your pool or spa, which can be a relief during allergy season.
Is the skimmer ergonomic for people with joint pain or arthritis?
The lightweight 1-pound build and the one-handed weighted-tab dump design reduce the strain on wrists, elbows, and shoulders. Combined with a standard telescoping pole, it allows for a comfortable upright cleaning posture that minimizes bending and reaching.
Can I use this to maintain a clean plunge pool at my wellness retreat property?
Yes. The skimmer is widely used at vacation rentals, wellness retreats, and Airbnb properties with plunge pools. The universal pole socket and easy-to-empty design make it simple for guests or staff to keep the water pristine between bookings.
Will the mesh bag hold aromatic flower petals from my spa decoration rituals?
Yes. The fine mesh captures floating flower petals, herbs, and aromatherapy decorations from the surface without sinking them, so you can refresh your spa setup between soaks while keeping the water clean and inviting.
Does daily skimming help with the calming visual of a still pool?
Absolutely. A clean, debris-free surface reflects the sky and surrounding garden more clearly, enhancing the visual calm of your pool or spa. Many wellness-focused owners find this mirror-like quality an essential part of their outdoor sanctuary.
Is the skimmer easy to rinse and store after a spa session?
Yes. A quick rinse with fresh water, a shake to remove excess moisture, and a hang or shelf in a covered area is all the maintenance it needs. Many owners keep one stored right next to their spa for daily convenience.
Can this skimmer help me maintain a clean wellness or therapy pool?
Yes. Therapy pools, exercise pools, and rehabilitation pools all benefit from regular surface skimming. The gentle fine-mesh bag captures hair, skin cells, and organic matter without disturbing the water chemistry, supporting a clean environment for healing practices.
Will the skimmer interfere with my salt-water spa system?
No. The molded plastic frame and nylon mesh are fully compatible with salt-water spa and pool systems. They will not corrode, degrade, or react with salt chlorine generators during normal use.
How do I attach the skimmer net to my pool pole?
Simply slide the universal 1-1/4-inch pole socket on the skimmer frame onto the end of any standard swimming pool pole until it seats firmly. Most standard telescoping poles and fixed-length pool poles fit without adapters. No tools, clamps, or screws are required.
How do I empty the skimmer bag during use?
Tip the pole so the weighted plastic tab at the base of the frame tilts the bag forward, and the debris will pour out in one smooth motion. You can dump into a compost pile, trash bin, or lawn bag without using your other hand.
How do I clean and store the skimmer to make it last?
Rinse the fine-mesh bag with a garden hose after each use to remove chlorine, dirt, and debris. Shake off excess water and let it air dry before storing in a shed, garage, or covered area. Avoid prolonged direct sun exposure when not in use to extend the life of the mesh and frame.
Does this skimmer fit my standard 1-1/4-inch telescoping pool pole?
Yes. The universal pole socket is designed to fit any standard swimming pool pole with a 1-1/4-inch diameter end, which includes the vast majority of telescoping and fixed-length poles sold for residential pool maintenance.
Will it work with a 1-1/8-inch or smaller pole?
Standard 1-1/8-inch and smaller poles are not a secure fit in the 1-1/4-inch socket. We recommend using a standard 1-1/4-inch pool pole for the best fit, or adding a 1-1/4-inch adapter if your existing pole is a different size.
What exactly comes in the box when I order this skimmer?
You will receive one POOLWHALE pool skimmer with the fine-mesh double-layer nylon bag already attached to the molded plastic frame. The pole is not included, and the skimmer is ready to attach to any standard 1-1/4-inch swimming pool pole right out of the package.
Is this skimmer safe for vinyl, fiberglass, and concrete pool surfaces?
Yes. The smooth molded plastic frame with rounded edges is specifically designed to be non-abrasive on vinyl pool liners, fiberglass shells, and painted or plastered concrete surfaces. You can scrape along waterlines and bottoms without scratching or marking the finish.
Will the mesh bag develop holes or tears with regular use?
The double-layer fine-mesh nylon is built for repeated residential pool use and resists tearing under normal conditions. Avoid dragging the net across sharp concrete edges or pool fixtures, which can shorten the life of any mesh skimmer.
What is the difference between this skimmer net and a pool vacuum?
A skimmer net like this is a manual surface-cleaning tool that scoops floating debris before it sinks. A pool vacuum is designed to clean debris that has already settled on the pool floor. Most pool owners use both: a skimmer for daily surface touch-ups and a vacuum for weekly deep cleaning.
