[QUOTE="aushunter, post: 149821, member: 195"] they are being used a lot more I believe. In saying that, the place I go to to get my little lovelies i.e. gold, has been flogged big time by dredging. These are bone dry gullies that is usually only good for crevicing. Well this weekend , busted, a guy was using a 3" dredge in the spot I was working getting good gold. He dammed up the gully lugged in one of those clear 1000 litre plastic water pallets and took 8000 litres of water from a stock dam then proceded to dredge his heart away. That stuffs it up for others, the guts of the gully is a mess and now I wont be going back to my little spot anymore. Boasting how he has been dredging in the state forest and so on. Ticking time bomb for sure, wont be long before someone will catch him. I don't see the reason why but just pure greed, he didn't get enough gold to justify his run and the farmer wasn't to happy when he found out that 8000 litres of water was taken out of his dam.
