Yes, the RakeZilla can dig down and pull some types of weed stems and roots from the beach bottom.

The kit includes two tools:
- The Weed Shear - a razor‑sharp aquatic weed cutter (cuts a 4’ wide path) with two 2’ extension handles, 25’ throw rope and sharpener.
- The Rake Zilla lake rake/skimmer/pitch‑fork tool, with a wide 40” head, 9” heavy‑duty tines, 25’ throw rope and float kit for surface skimming.
It’s designed for submerged and emergent weeds, e.g. milfoil, hydrilla, lilies, as well as floating vegetation mats. The cutter sinks to the bottom and cuts, the rake then pulls and removes debris.
The rake comes standard with a 7‑ft handle (2‑piece) and rope for retrieval. An optional upgrade to an 11‑ft (3‑piece) handle is offered. Choose based on water depth and reach required.
First run the weed cutter through the growth to sever plants at the bottom. After the vegetation has lifted or floated, use the rake to skim, collect, scoop and remove material.
After use, rinse off, remove plant residue, sharpen cutter blades periodically, inspect handles for wear, and store dry. The Weed Shear includes a hand‑held sharpener.
Yes—it removes vegetation rather than just trimming, which helps reduce nutrient recycling and regrowth. However many applications may still need follow‑up treatments (mechanical or chemical) and regular inspections.
It’s ideal for shorelines, swim zones, boat slips and moderate depths with manageable growth. On extremely large acreages or very dense mats, a powered harvester or professional may be more efficient.
For the tools in this kit: Rake Zilla has a 5‑year replacement warranty (non‑commercial use), the cutter has a 2‑year replacement warranty (non‑commercial).

Best Rake so far
I have owned and used another brand for years however this rake takes the cake The 15 foot handle is great but the two most important aspects are the quality rigid prongs that really grab and the downturned handle at the end that makes it easy to grab and pull in. It also has a flotation tube for grabbing the weeds on the surface. Lovin it.
