    Hi guys nice to see people doing small dredging which doesn't hurt the environment. Because up in Alaska they just tear everything right down stripped everything trees and all open up the permafrost cause major damage and causes severe. Thks for doing it right

    Back in 88 i held an over 4 oz nugget in the chicken saloon. Dredger on the north fork found it. He wanted 2000 bucks for it. Almost bought it. Should have lol

    Bryan, I dredged with a guy 36 years ago that lives there and he said the river freezes from top to bottom and during breakup the whole bottom moves also and replenishes the place you dredged with new materal almost every year. Good luck.

    Just for the sake of time, maybe replace that corrugated vacuum hose with some flexible spa tub hose. Couple hose clamps, cut the adapter off the old corrugated hose and done. I imagine it takes a while to clean it. Love the videos by the way. Im saving for a trip somewhere and I think this might be the place.

      @@briankenison7995 vacuum hose was not smooth. Those corrugations will catch gold. Maybe it's really easy to wash out and there is no need for a smooth hose. I was just giving a suggestion. No one knows everything, no matter how long they have been doing it. Surly you are old enough to know that. 😉

    Nice touch adding in a smoker to your dredge, awesome idea. But I couldnt help to notice all of the smoke getting in and around the motor. Be careful that the smoke doesnt get taken up by your divers air intake... that could be a deadly mistake!
    Great clean up indeed. Thanks for sharing mate.

    I'm pretty new to subscribing to you guys and I'm enjoying your content.. I used to watch all the old Handergard dredging uploads 10+ years back.. Ok I'm from UK and will never mine or prospect gold, probably ever but have you tried using a sex toy.. (no bullshit) Touching a vibrator to the side of a pan or mesh will shake that gold down in seconds and reduce the clogging in the mesh by 100%. We use industrial vibrators 3 ft long to shake the bubbles out've concrete before finishing it..The aggregate goes down the bubbles come up and the concrete increases in strength 10 fold.

    if that current is so strong down where you guys are dredging now why not try changing the current further up river just before the bend to your straight using larger rocks etc.
    Later on you might think of changing that current to work for you better when you if you guys do the opposite bank.

He had a rock in his one hand scratched the back/side of his head with his other hand (not pulled an ear plug out) and when he put his hand back down he chucked the rock that was in his hand. Watch a little closer before you insinuate things and call people you don’t know “bogans”. 🙄
