3in Dryland dredge nozzle question 559 2
Started by c.butters74@gmail.com
I'm new to dredging. Just bough a 3in dryland dredge nozzle from GBE Mandrel. When I run it in my highbanker with the keene pump (2in) supplying it, it blows out the nose of the nozzle.

Place that's easily accessible 661 1

I live near Sacramento, and would love to take him to a place to pan. I'd prefer a gpaa claim, as I'm a new member. But anywhere would be ok. I tried the bear river at the campground my first time, which I know is accessable, but I heard it's just fine gold, and I got skunked my first time there (which honestly was my first time prospecting). Any and...
