  • why do all the dredges i see use corrugated piping wouldnt smooth piping be easier and keep from gettin things stuck!!

  • @holymonkeyshiza ...Do you mean the hose we use for suction? If so, its not corrugated on the inside, its nice and smooth. Thanks for asking.

  • wonder what thier best day has been (ounces) and does it cover operation costs?

  • The best day at that certain spot was 12 DWT. Cost were usually covered everyday. The dredge is only 2 years old, has been used for 2 seasons. At a higher grade spot I'm we would have gotten even better gold return. Now that they kicked us out of California we will have to look eleswhere.

  • Can you still dredge in California???

  • Wow what a beast. Tearing it up!!! I have a 3in Keene dredge high banker combo. What kind of recovery should I get in the fine gold department?I running miners moss in my box. How about you? I live in Arizona. But I'm like you. You have laws and I don't have much water hear. Not many people hear have dredges of a decent size, So you really can make it a nice pay day since not many people want to invest in a dredge because of a lack of water. Super video!!!

  • Alan Greenspan (former Federal Reserve Chairman) now works for John Paulson's fund. Guess what John Paulson's fund's BIGGEST position is right now? GOLD. . Don't say you weren't told. Protect your families wealth. Visit: goldsave.co/

  • @bearkat4160 Hay Buddie Yea we were averiging about 4 to 6 Dwt a day not bad for what gold was at at the time but a comercial 8 should be doing at least an ounce a day or more I know I did 62 ounces in two weeks with and old mining partner in 2005 on an 8 the gold was everywhere even on our wet suites and I have an idea of where some rich gold streks are but the politicans shut that down Thanks Arnold

  • @corey19772001 Hello There it was 18'-6" when the video was done over the winter we did some Mods. and extended the rear so now she is a full 22' long and 8'-6" wide vary stable for working in Fast water where we do alot of our mining.

  • cool! Sorry to hear about getting booted from Ca. in terms of dredging and thanks for the response! My Christmas gift from the g/f this year is GPAA membership. I want to build a dredge but live in Michigan (very little gold) I am planning to try to talk a buddy of mine into an Alaska trip this spring.Thanks again and hope ya' find alot!
