Color me green with envy as we have NO water. Your playn' in the mud-d blood and d' beer there. Simply run a tarp from bank to bank(or roll black el cheapo plastic) at the discharge and clip to dredge frame. Hence you discharge on the down stream side and can dredge for hours in comparative clean water instead of split pea soup. That fine grit eats up them pump seals. I've posted many pics showing but going mining so maybe later again-John
