There is a dock that I can pull up to and drop a pump into the water. I ahve a 400w invertor that hooks to my truck battery, the pump I use is a mag 18, it hooks to a 3/4 vinyl tub to get out of the water, then to a 1" PVC pipe that runs to the truck and back into a 3/4 vinyal tube to go into a barrel. I have 2 55g barrels in my truck that I installed a uniseal and a 1" ball valve in. When I get home I roll the barrels over and hook the mag directly to the barrel, open a top vent hole and pump from one barrel to another that is on the ground. This is where I run it thorugh a filter sock. If you wanted to youcould easily run it through a 1 micron filter, just find a single housing from an ro system and plumb it in, might clog quickly but try putting it after the filter sock. Next time go gather Ill get some pics but wont be till next week at the soonest. The water is pretty clear after running it through the sock but I personally dont want to filter out all the particulates, Im sure that at least some of them do some good.
