Hello all,
Need a little input. I'm building my first dredge. I have a 10hp 3" trash pump, A52 sluice, 2 inflatable pontoons from a large one man fishing pontoon, I'm building a frame, I have a suction nozzle and hoses. help I need: What do I use or where do I get the flare, dampener flap, and do I need a jet nozzle on the flare since I have a suction nozzle already? What else am I missing... -------------------- James

Definitely tough to run a smaller high banker, 2.5" and especially a 4" on day trips. Made the trip in/out of the canyon a few times and it'll definitely wear you out! Gave that up and save it for multi-day trips where I can leave it set up!
Congrats on the new baby! -------------------- Find Colorado Prospector on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/170314493176558
