[QUOTE="Chewy, post: 166110, member: 4646"] I'm new to this to so still learning, but I think it takes a bit of trial of different pans to get a feel for what you like and what works. What I have found is that I suck at panning. So lots of practice is needed for me. I bought a turbo pan to start of with, and didn't like it. Bought a traditional type black 14", and had better success. (I found 2 fly 5hit size bits) and heaps of pyrite. Starting to realise all that glitters is not gold, but gold tends to sit where it is when pyrite travels around the pan very easily. I think the turbo pan might make a good clean up pan though. Experiment with some different pans and see what you like. A Garrett super sluice pan is what I plan on buying for my next pan to check it out. I've talked to a lot of people and they all like the super sluice. :) [/QUOTE]
