Oregon Dredge Rules

[Hoser John]

Online or in the magazine is a great article by a Detector shop owner named Mike Evans. He has taken much time collecting all info and related clickable links to get you every horrible form,fact and assist you in the process. Permits gone for the year,done by some insane lottery based on past performances and multi permits needed in 95% of the MINISCULE area open to those whom have already dredged Oregon. Capped at 850 and 1/3 of last years sales. All this goes away next year to get even tighter ,if even existant at all. Don't plan on a dredging trip to Oregon,Kalif or Idaho unless you don't care. Anyhow fantastic job done and what a convaluted read. Copywritten materials so can't post but go to ICMJ.com click on pic of latest issue and article will be there. -John
