The Weed-Ripper: The Ultimate Lake & Pond Weed Puller
Tired of aquatic weeds taking over your waterfront, dock, or swimming area? Stop cutting weeds that grow back in weeks. The Weed-Ripper is the ultimate lake weed removal tool engineered to pull unwanted underwater vegetation out by the roots, providing a long-term solution for a cleaner, more enjoyable lake or pond.
By targeting the root system, the Weed-Ripper disrupts the growth cycle, meaning you'll spend less time clearing weeds and more time enjoying the water.
Get to the Root of Your Weed Problem
The Weed-Ripper's unique design is what sets it apart from simple cutters or rakes. It’s built to solve your weed problem, not just manage it.
-
Long-Lasting Results: Unlike cutters that simply trim the tops, our tool grabs and rips weeds out from the base. This slows regrowth dramatically, keeping your water clearer for longer.
-
Highly Effective on Rooted Weeds: Perfect for tackling stubborn underwater plants. If the weeds are too deeply rooted, the Weed-Ripper’s aggressive teeth will still remove them by cutting or ripping the stems close to the lakebed.
-
Eco-Friendly Weed Control: Reclaim your water without the use of harmful chemicals. The Weed-Ripper provides a powerful, manual, and environmentally safe solution for lake and pond weed management.
-
Improves Water Access: Easily clear paths for boats, create weed-free swimming zones, and clean up around your dock for better fishing and recreation.
The Perfect Tool For Clearing:
The Weed-Ripper works best on submerged aquatic weeds with stems under 1 inch in diameter. It is the ideal solution for removing:
-
Lily Pads (Water Lilies)
-
Pencil Reeds (Slender Spikerush)
-
Milfoil & Hydrilla
-
Eelgrass & Coontail
-
And most other common lake and pond vegetation
Important Note: Not for Cattails
The Weed-Ripper is designed for submerged aquatic plants and is not recommended for cutting emergent vegetation like Cattails. The fibrous, dense stalks of cattails require a specialized blade.

Weed Ripper | Great tool, but I didn't think...
I purchased this tool for our family ponds after herbicides weren't effective on an infestation of dollar shield. I bought the 11ft version. Tested it with the extensions and handle and worked well. Didn't seem to get the roots I was hoping for though. So, I had the bright idea of attaching the rope to the short "throw" version and then pulling it in with the winch on our UTV. Great idea, not thought out though. The head of the ripper came out bent under the increased pressure. Fortunately I was able to bend it back into it's original shape...mostly. After that I simply used the short version attached to rope and worked it manually. This was actually the most effective method and began pulling huge root balls with the weeds. Again, great tool so far, minus my extreme testing.

Weed Ripper
It worked great on the bulk of the lake weeds but not for the last remnants of smaller weeds close to the lake bed. I modified the rake by adding some longer hardware and a wooden spacer to put it at a 30 - 45 degree angle with the pole. That helped it get some of the smaller weeds but not all. Might need another slightly different rake. Overall, It was very good.

Great!
They shipped it so quickly and it got delivered sooo quickly. Does what it says it does, easy to use, easy to remove the weeds from it as well, just by shaking it on either side.

Weed Ripper
This works great in removing weeds and holding on to them so they can be taken out of the water and not spread around in the water. I use this and the RakeZilla and it makes a great system for cleaning our swimming area.
