So I head out on my maiden panning voyage tomorrow. Filled with nothing but excitement and hope. We will see if I can put my theory into practice.
I'll update you on my effort in the evening with a couple of pics of the area and hopefully some colour
Wish me luck.

well depending on your view on lucky I had a good morning.
Weather wasnt as nice as id hope but when the sun was out it was gorgeous. The lady and I found a nice little spot with out anyone within kooee and threw a shovel to the dirt and a pan in the river.
No success other than some black sand and a gold flake the size of a pin head........wasnt found by me either.
I think I know the errors of my ways and look forward to getting back out there tomorrow morning for another go.

We learn by having a go. At least you got a speck of gold - so there is gold about where you are digging.
