    Yessir, perfect technique,.... what did I learn, well nothin'. but that's not a knock, you put together what could arguably be one of the best how to pan technique videos, and I'm sure will help a lot of people. I mean, if I was new and searched for how to pan, I'd want them to see this video.
    The only other thing I will add, is if you're panning in a place with nothing but super micro-fines, stratifying while bumping it against your hand like you were showing will also concentrate those micro-fines to the side you are bumping on, which will help with recovery and snuffering.
    Awesome job.

      @WheezinGeezerTV Thank you so much, that means alot to me, I kinda winged it when I made this video. I'm glad it actually turned out good :)
      That's some really good information about the gold concentrating on the side you hit the pan on. I'll have to add that to the next how to video I make :)

    Here's my experience: if you walk up to a gravel bank in a steam bed and take a pan full off the top, you will be lucky to find a flake. Take a shovel, dig a hole down to bedrock, THEN take a painful, you could likely find some gold. If you scrape dirt out of a crack in the bedrock, even more likely.

      At the moment my schedule has been changing alot, and has been making it hard for me to get any plans set in stone, but I do want to have a subscriber meet up, get everyone together and go panning sometime. When it comes to the rogue vs the Illinois, they are both great rivers for gold. In my experience the rogue is easier to find gold (lots of small pieces all over) the Illinois I've seen larger nugget pieces being pulled out quite recently but there is alot of mercury still in that river.
      I've never panned at these locations, but two spots that are fairly close to you that look good on Google maps would be $8 bridge picnic site on the Illinois, and Indian Mary campground on the Rogue.

    Beautiful gold. But you should really put your cons in a container that closes securely, like Tupperware, etc. because you WILL inevitably spill or drop that pan and lose all your hard work.

    • @SkovianGoesOutdoors
      @SkovianGoesOutdoors  2 месяца назад +1

      @samshapiro9033 I really should find a good container. I've almost lost my pan a few times haha. A nice flat Tupperware would probably fit nicely in my pack
