Well, I compared an early prototype to a Bazooka and confirmed the Grizzly was just as good. Since then I understand they've improved the Grizzly's trap further so I'm excited to get my hands on a production version soon!!
...maybe in a week or two (fingers crossed).

I have also been keeping an eye on the grizzly Kevin. Been keeping an eye on you also and have come to respect your opinions. Keep posting.

That video shows that this is NO light weight , flimsy sluice and should take a beating and keep on ticking!


Any idea when they'll be available?

Website is set up for "pre-order" only.

I'm glad you used one, Kevin. It appears as though you have the Bazooka. I ordered the Grizzly Explorer a few weeks ago and am looking forward to using it.

Yup, I have three Bazookas: Prospector, Sniper, Supermini. Also an Angus Mackirk for low water. In the next month or so I expect to get a Grizzly Goldtrap and a Gold Hog too. Hope it all fits in my truck! Actually, I'll probably sell whichever Bazooka the Grizzly is similar to...or maybe donate, we shall see.

I pre-ordered one too, but it seems they are already behind on the predicted shipping dates. ???

I didn't get that email. :dontknow:
I did get this one back on June 2nd: "Our fabricator needed to make two adjustments on the thermoform molds (needed on all three models) so the first run of products is moved back to next week. So shipment of products will commence around end of next week."
That should have been around the 9th. I haven't heard anything since.

I didn't see any bashing in your post russau. The post was very complementary.
