Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations Pumping muck

I may just call for a price on one of those Piranha dredges -- unless somebody here has an idea of what they cost.

I'm lucky. As is somewhat normal, a friend left a trackhoe and dump truck parked in my back driveway. I'd love to take the trackhoe down to the pond and clean out some muck, but I think it would cause more harm than good. (We did use it to dig a about a 1/10 acre grow-out pond last Friday. Saturday and Sunday's rain filled it up.) It sure can tear up shoreline, and I'm afraid of what it would do to the water.

But, those small dredges really look like a neat contraptions. I'd sure like to see some posts from anybody who has any experience with them.
