Howdy all,
I'm thinking of procuring two different hand dredge devices and would like to know if anyone has used these and if they are any good? I'm getting a Chucks Gold Trapper and the Adult Gold Sucker. I've seen Chucks unit used on Gold Fever and looks like a great way to get into those spots where dredges dare not roam, and to do sampling. The Gold sucker unit has two check valves and doesn't need to be lifted out of the hole, which makes good sense. Any opinions? -------------------- Evil Ernie

I used to have one of Chucks Gold Trapper hand dredges and sold it at our Club meetings in Fort Collins. I did a search online and noticed Chuck Cummins recently passed away.
Now, I'm looking for another one to take to California and work some crevices, most of the available units today look cheaply made. Not interested in making one if I can find a Chuck's Gold Trapper. Does anyone have one for sale or not using theirs anymore???  Bill Laporte, CO. |
