I am on some good ****! I will be back out tomorrow, cold or not, my ass cant stop wondering when I will expose the true source of the gold.
I was taught to work up stream about 10 to 20 feet at a time, when on a little creek.
When you find some, move 10 or 20 feet and don't find any, you've got it narrowed down.
I doesn't take very long to cover a good distance that way.
