We went to a creek only a few know about, Savage was calling it one pan, now we named it to 3 pan..
First pan I didn't get anything, second pan bam, the biggest picker I ever found was in my pan.. It's a clinker.. 3rd pan blam a slightly smaller picker, but still rough as the first. I ended up with 2 pickers and they ended up with some bigger flour gold, none of it was flattened and hasn't travelled far from the source. I think the source is in the bank.
After spending a few hours out there, I took them to my gold spot.. Ran a A51 mini sluice, bank running shovelling straight into it. Blam we was hitting the gold pretty hard. Ran for about 20 mins and Mike and I split the gold.
Waiting for the pictures from Savage and Mike, but I will post it..

We call it first pan creek. You usually find your best gold in the first pan, after that, it seems like the gold hides.

I'm ready to go. All rivers and creeks here have been at or near flood stage for the last 8 weeks. Time to hit NC or is all that NC water running south and flooding us? Lol.
