Looking for some answers maybe you guys can help me with. I know nothing about dredging so here is my situation. Locally I have some very narrow and slow flowing creeks with anywhere from 3 to 15 colors per pan depending on the bend. I want to build a small dredge to run off of my small AM sluice (I think it's the backpacker). There really isn't even enough drop to gravity dredge this. The only reason I want to do this is because I know it has never been dredged and the walls to the creek are too narrow for a big boy dredge.I have access to 12v batteries out the wazoo. I have some at work I wired in parallel to run a 48v motor, so power isn't really an issue. Let me know what info you need to help me out. Thanks in advance!
