If you are getting 180-220 gpm I'd be tempted to drag and open the drain. Only downside to dragging is twofold. 1) grab too much material and can't get enough traction to pull the harrow. 2) pop the cable instead of losing traction.
esshup, I have a utv, tractor and 4wd truck. It is downhill from the dam to the 100 yard target and flat to 250 yards so traction is not much concern. However, popping the cable is something I would like to avoid. What size cable do you recommend? 3/8 inch X 1000 foot, 7x19, Galvanized Cable has a working load limit of 2880lbs and a minimum breaking strength of 14,400lbs. Would this be too little, just right or overkill? Thanks for your help!
