Dredging out by Stanton? 6385 2
Started by joe@hi-standard.com
This year the wife and I were out poking around, not at camp, just out S/E of Decision corner, and we saw a guy in one of the washes dredging. We just had some pretty good rain and some of the washes were running.
We have a little 2 1/2' triple dredge, and I was thinking of bringing it out when it's too wet to drywash and give it a try. Has anyone on here done it before
We do belong to a couple other organizations, so there are plenty of washes to try, but just curious if it is worth it, or ...

I'd like to meet a few other people interested in dredging within a few hours of Boise. Just more fun and productive with several people.
Been dredging for about 5 years and prospecting 10. Looking for others with the fever too....my family is immune. I have several dredges.

Miners moss VS Carpet? 25933 6
Started by cowboybrj81@gmail.com
I have a 3' gold king dredge/highbanker combo and need to replace the carpet. I was wondering which is better since I need to buy new matting, I was thinking of going with gold hog matting. Also when switching from carpet to miners moss do you need to do any modifications to the riffles Just looking at it I dont see how the moss will fit as it seems much thicker than carpet. Just looking for some input! Thanks!

Dredge Adjustments 12272 3

I have a 2' Keene Dredge with a crash box sluice on It. When it runs the weight of the water brings the end of the sluice down near the water. That point is can be adjusted by moving the sluice on the dredge frame. Question is how much or how many inches should the end of the sluice be above the water
