The “ Sniper” mode is meant for sucking out submerged bedrock cracks and potholes or other hard to reach places, but it can quickly be converted to the it’s “ Prospector” mode by removing the sniper tip, adding the valve’d head attachment, and attaching to a remote bucket via a 1 1/2″ flex hose and our original “ Bucket Sleeve” ( Optional) to capture the material for later processing through hand panning or other separation process. The above picture shows the full sized MotherSucker in “ Prospector ” mode, and to the right, it’s being shown in the “ Sniper” mode. The full size MotherSucker’s are true – 2 ‘n’ 1 Hand Dredges – and are capable of operating in 2 different modes (Prospector and Sniper modes). Why pay double, for 2 units and have to carry extra equipment, when ours can switch back and forth in mere seconds? Yet, it harnesses the power of suction to easily vacuum up pay dirt from the bottom of rivers, creeks and streams and deposit it into a bucket for further processing, with simple and cheap “ Hand Power“. It is completely non-polluting and does not cause anymore of a disruption of the environment than a simple shovel. We developed the MotherSucker Hand Dredge to fall into the category of a simple hand tool, and into the realm of the small or recreational placer miner. Then, there is the potential of having to pay thousands of dollars as a deposit to ensure you do a proper reclamation on your work site. Paperwork is complicated and permits take a long time having to jump the environmental, fisheries and conservation hoops. In many areas of the world, it is no longer acceptable to use mechanical gas driven machinery in these area’s due to the pollution factor and the disruption of the natural habitat for fish and wildlife, even if you have a legal claim and miners license, you are still limited with what you can use, and how you can use it. However, as more and more people take to the streams and rivers, they are quickly followed by an ever increasing number of rules and regulations for preserving our natural spaces. Times are changing, and the price of gold is rising. * Backpacker – Sniper – 16″ ( not including removeable tips ) * Sniper 2 n 1 – Full Size ( Converts to Prospector ) * Prospector 2 n 1 ( Converts to Sniper )
