Been trying to get him to dredge the last couple of times.. But he wanted to stick with the sluice and the shovel. I think I might have converted him.

It's much harder to shovel after being on the business end of a dredge hose and seeing the difference in results at the end of the day.

Good looking gold u all got. I recognize the dredge u are using it is a gold grabber built buy my good friend Allen Trees out of riggings Idaho. I also have one of his dredges I have the 5inch dredge. they definitely work good.

Yep, I been running it next to a Keene, for the past few weeks, I think I am about to convert him to a gold grabber.

Let's the the pro's

It's lighter..

Less concentrate..

Catch more gold..

It's great and does a very nice job.

I live in North Carolina.. I ordered the gold grabber because of it's ability to catch the fine gold, we have alot of that up here. The keene users seem to be hard core with their dredges, and when they get spanked over and over again with the gold grabber, they think their keene isn't doing right..

And on the 7th day he created dredges....and it was good so he could relax from all that shoveling and pick work. NOW you are missing a blaster nozzle to increase your productivity X 2, Simple 5/8" non kink hose,elchapo water volume control ,with a lawn sweeper nozzle(think mini firemens nozzle) and you blast through impacted gravels,clean then crack and crevices completely in seconds and simply melt that gold grabbing clay so globs and balls of gold robbing clay don't roll through your sluicebox-party on-get a mask as soon as you can so you can see and you again DOUBLE your ease of work and get some gloves whilst your at it or you'll bleed like a stuck pig and be fingerprintless in no time-John-PS=last post was the best laugh I've had in 10 years,spanked :tongue3:
