Thanks for the tips guys. The Arrow River bust its banks with some heavy rain recently and someone found a pretty big nugget, so looking forward to getting out there...

befor you start washing the material out of the pan you need to fill it with water and just shake it back and forth to get all the gold to sink down to the bottom then get a fan and wash the top of the fan off then agitate it again then wash it til you get just the heavy stuff then you backwash and tap. look up a video on here called the backwash and tap method

i like my cheap pans for down on the river too. my blue pan i like for home and doing finishing work. yep those 5 dollar pans you cant beat them....
