Just had another look at your youtube vids great shots, have a few questions,, what partof the southis it only answer if you want to . Also what are the long gloves you have on and where did they come frome,do they handle the abuse of handling rocks all day, i have spent a lot of money on gloves,,ie kevlar all over but, hav,nt found a pair that last more than a few days, at $80---to 150 its a bit expenzise Using nitril rubber gloves, they last but dont keep the hands warm. How far do you have to carry your dredge in to get to that great looking spot, aaand would like to see clean up vids please

heres the gloves i i use. although not neoprene they seal at the wrist and still keep hands reasonably warm they also have some sort of padded lining.
the outer layer is extremely tough should get a few months of dredging mayby the whole season outve a pair. they were $22.95 +gst a pair

Get them from B&S Tools invercargill email Brian [email protected]
