I'm going on vacation soon and will be in search of micros as usual. While I've got my customary habits of hunkering down at the drift line or taking bags of drift for later sorting, I've never learned quite how to do screening. I'm trying to picture the procedure at the shoreline. Am I allowing the finer stuff to fall in a bucket...or a smaller mesh screen with a hard surface underneath it? What's used to catch the finer material?
Also, someone had recommended a cheap, good quality set of nested screens but I couldn't find it by searching in the archives.

Thanks for any info you can filter to me,
