Massachusetts Gold Dredging -- February 2008

Hey Gold Adventurers...

O.K.  I am reaching REALLY far back into my picture archives to show you the first every use of my used Proline 2 1/2 inch high banker/dredge combo unit running as a suction dredge.  I traded an ounce of gold to the guy selling this unit in good used condition.

Despite the wintertime snow & ice, I just HAD to try it out...  I worked hard, learned a lot, froze my butt off in that COLD snow melt water.





Funny, it was below freezing the whole day, so I had ice freezing on everything that didn't have running water on it...

Here's the box, running clean, catching glacial gold:



Got for decent gold for my 7 hours:





So, I learned a LOT, got cold, got wet..............had a great day.
