hmm... you gave me an idea! thank you, Tony! ;)
If the idea is to collect tabanid larvae then: use a large sieve (1m diam), a small shovel to dig up the mud/soil/sand at edge of pond/lake/river, and a bucket of water to wash away the mud/soil/sand. Tabanid larvae are usually close to the surface so take shallow horizontal slices of mud/soil/sand.:p
