I found an older model 4 inch keene dredge online but I am not sure about it. Does anyone know if they are as good as new ones? What are the downsides? Are they: heavier or less likely to retain fine gold? It has an 8hp Briggs and stratton engine and a keene 4x3 pump. New 4 inch dredges come...

I am seriously considering buying a 4 inch gould bazooka dredge and was wondering if anyone here has any experience with it? The main reason I want it is that it is portable with the ability to process as much as a 4 inch dredge can. I read a few postings on a few websites but you can never get...

Ok, so I have known about this for about 2 weeks now and I am surprised that no one has posted it here yet. In short, Siskiyou County is back open for dredging! This does not guarantee that you wont get a ticket, but the DA will NOT prosecute you. So at worst you are out time and small court...

I first started gold panning about one year ago and moved up to a homemade sluice box but never could get any gravel from the deep pools in some local creeks.

Heya everyone; I wanted to ask a simple question. How much would you pay for a California legal dredge? Lets just say that you could have a 100% legal dredge but it had to be fully underwater, electric and limited to no larger than a 1.5" hose. Run time would be 2 hours non stop dredging, use...
