The pressure of 20 to 30+ lbs hanging on your pants is about as comfortable as it sounds. I tried using carabiners on the pants also. You will get to a place where you are satisfied and then you will just enjoy the hobby and the exercise. Then it might close faster but, I like my gold sucker just the way it is.Īs long as you seem to get flour gold too, the device is working in my opinion. I thought of attaching a round leather piece to the top of the rubber to make it heavier. Then you could use leather with a large spacer instead of rubber or use a combination of the two. If you could mount a spring on the inside, it might keep material from coming out as you pull the device out of the water. I think this will always be a problem with this design also. Just jam the sucker unit a few times to dislodge the rock that keeps the flap from closing. The trap system will always clog up as you said. I have experimented with this hobby to an extent. It is inane in my opinion to use a low pressure Hookah system when a high pressure system is only about $100 more. I used a separate hookah system but the 2.5 uses the same motor for the hookah and the dredge. A 2.5 inch motor dredge has too many limitations when it comes to depth. I got this dredge because I could use it by myself and break it down to fit in a small place for transporting. I have seen recently that NT has taken a hit with the economy and stores are closing. I modified it with the same type of hose. The bazooka is no longer available but it was for flour gold and did a great job. My first dredge was a Bazooka 3 inch with a 5.5 HP Honda trash pump engine and pump. I was going to mention that when I saw the 5 gallon you were using.
