[QUOTE="casper, post: 225723, member: 562"] G'day cecc, I love my Mackirk - the vee at the intake means you have at least the minimum requirement of water needed to clear the sluice of classified gravel and associated light material. Also you'll see that if flow and fall are optimum the retained heavies will be "dancing" around in the riffles but be aware that these sluices are sensitive to "surges" which can flush out the accumulated heavies and also your GOLD :( so be careful not to disturb the water flow entering the sluice for example by walking around in the stream behind the sluice. good luck [/QUOTE]
