Bazooka sniper or prospector. Which should I buy?

We have all kinds of dredging up here. Some rivers are open as little as 2 weeks a year, others are open from 6 months to all year. As you may imagine, because all our rivers basically lead to the ocean, the salmon runs really predict the dredging season.

I am sure the running salmon have a huge part of when you can and cannt dredge. There is a couple parts if the feather river and the Yuba river I would love to dredge. And there a couple of creeks as well that would be good to dredge if I could do it

425 Jesse Keep in touch and let us know when your gonna be near Placerville. There are several of us here who will help put you on a spot.If your friend doesn't have one that is.

425jesse As Goldwasher says there are a lot of us here that are a just few tosses of a nugget from Rancho and/or Shingle Springs. If you hit town we go get gold. I have almost every day off of work in June so that would be a good time. Also to sweeten the pot a little I will throw in one of these

Wearing mine now. Killer shirts Mojo!

 

[b.jmining530]

What do I got to do to get one of those cool shirts?

 

[Goldwasher]

Show up in person

 

[b.jmining530]

That's it? I think I could handle that, but the real question is how big of sizes are they? So are you guys down in Placerville? I live up by Oroville and want to try out some new places I could take my 30 inch sniper

 

[Prospector70]

I'd like to change my answer to: Both.

I wanted to come down to California so bad when you guys were having your tnet outing a few weeks back. I would love to dig with you guys and rock a awesome t-shirt too! Thanks for the cordiality guys, I will absolutely keep in touch about when we come down. Cheers!

Y'all may remember this comment I made a while ago to someone nervous about how to properly setup their new Bazooka....our friends at Bazooka Gold Co made this :-)

 

[b.jmining530]

I remember because I think I was asking about how to set it up lol .

LoL cool!

 

[b.jmining530]

Yeah ....... Lol I cannt wait till i save up some money to get the big prospector and shovel a lot more and think way less, I cannt wait to see how much material it could run with 2 people shoveling into it .

 

[Aufisher]

Ha! That's quite a photo and logo. Caught a lot of gold in that sluice! Conrats HTD and Kevin!

 

[vaquero44]

you know I never paid much attention until recently of the bazooka gold sluice and after watching a few vids I wished I saw one of these sooner in action it might be ideal for small creeks that I'm always sampling and not dragging a pump along that gets old quick what is the recommended sluice for smaller creeks and streams for like 4' wide and under?

 

[KevinInColorado]

For sampling without classifying I would go with the sniper. You could go all the way down to the Mini if you want to carry a classifier anyway...that thing almost fits in your pocket and runs on hardly any water at all. I've seen one in action and it's amazing something that small works but it does!

 

[vaquero44]

hey thank you very much on the sniper, i'll have to check it out!

 

[b.jmining530]

The 30 inch sniper is pretty sweet!
