- The general rule of thumb for setting up a sluice box is a 1" drop per 1' of box, but there are other things to consider such as water flow in order to capture the maximum amount of gold.
Alright Kevin, good to see you on CZcams. I hope you have more vids or are making more vids. Great demonstration, definitely wet your pay dirt. You have a load of info & it's appreciated, especially on metal detectors. Finally getting out this coming week for camping, gold mining & fishing. thank you for the vid, Sergio
Thank you Kevin. Also, it did help me become a better prospector. I'm at a known producing river with a sluice for my first day really prospecting. EXCITED.
This is a great lesson.thank you
You're very welcome!
Kevin your the man I’ve been learning from you from the time I seen you on gold fever thank you for your excellent teaching skills and for continuing to help the community of prospectors
Nice demonstration brother
Thanks!
Thanks for the walk through! Looking forward to spending some time with my young sons in the creeks with our sluice
Good video! Awaiting warmer weather!
You and me both!
I got a sluicebox for xmas and I'm super excited to use it this spring up in Maine. Thanks dude. Love the way you convey info 👍 👍

Gold Squad Out!!!
Always!
Great info again!
nice tips thanks!
Thank you for the good information.
Glad it was helpful!
Does anyone know where Tom Massie, from the Gold Fever show, is at nowadays?
Great idea to not put your scoop with material above the water. Where were you running your sluice and did you find some gold?
This was from a couple years ago up in Oregon. Found a couple specs... Wish I had more time to really prospect that creek. It was a beautiful spot!
What do you do after the clean out of your sluice box? I just got my first set of pans and a small pocket sluice but I don’t know the next steps to recovery of the gold
What if I made my own sluice box and it’s about a inc under a foot what should my angle be?
We're is the best place in a river to start to look for gold.
Stay tuned over the next few days. We've got a great video lined up that helps answer this question! Press that bell to turn on notifications :)
Can you expand on "hit, stick, and flow" ? thanks
Sure thing.. We'll do a video on it, but the basic principle is that when dumping the material from your scoop, you want to see the material hit the sluice box, stick for a fraction of a second, then flow down through the box. If it is not hitting and sticking, and just flowing, then your water flow is too intense and you could be losing gold. Either adjust the angle of your box, or slow the water heading into your box by constructing some sort of blockage.
Thanks, much clearer.
Hey I just started a prospecting group in yreka California you don't mind if I share your videos do you
