Hi Everyone, I'm new to prospecting. I've done a bit of panning around Creswick and found some specks and a couple of flakes. Well, thanks for having me aboard, I've learnt a lot by reading the info here. I'm looking forward to learning lots more. :-)

Hi KD, I haven't had a dig around the Yarrowee yet, but I'd like to. I've been to a couple of the main spots around camp ground 1 at Slaty Creek. I made a sluice I wouldn't mind getting people's opinions on, I'm just in the process of panning the cons to see if it works. I copied the design, and prob cost a bit more than a bought one, getting the aluminum, but I like to build stuff if I can, cos I can learn. Just gotta figure out how to put a pic on here. Lol

Awesome, thanks KD, I'll definitely look around a bit more for good spots. I've got two weeks off so I will be trying to get out there as often as I can.
