I actually grew up of the clear boggy. The one creek that surprises me that there isnt more gold in is the blue river. I have great pictures of me panning it but sadly I didn't even find any black sand. It looks like it would be great because of all the bedrock exposed. There is some gold found in the clear and muddy boggy but once again its just trace.

I have heard for years that you can get color near where the 23rd St. Bridge is located on the east side of the Arkansas in Tulsa. There's a Lost Treasure story about pounds of gold dust buried in what is now Brookside on the banks of Crow Creek, so that might be a source for the gold. Last I heard about it, a friend of mine said he could get $2 to $5 in a few hours on the riverbank. That would be a lot more at today's prices, if it's true.

Okiedowser there is gold to be panned on the Kiamichi,Little,Mtn Fork Rivers,,,Little River is in your Back yard. Its not easy to find you have to prospect for it. Not like the GPAA locations out west. But it is there. No one I know has had a payday on gold in Oklahoma...Buck....

I am looking for anyone who has ever prospected " Blue River " in Oklahoma, I'm unable to find out anything about the gold on this river.
I have found some flour gold in this river about 6 years ago but haven't been back. I live in NC but am moving back to Blue OK soon!
Thanks for any help!

We have had some pretty good results with finding gold in the Kiamichi River near Moyers, OK. Most panners can find a few flakes or flour gold but the best results come when using a dredge and going down several feet in the bottom of the river. Good access to the gold areas when the river is low. See pictures and info at www.kriver.com. We are listed in the GPAA Field Guide. Usually we have a big GPAA event here on Memorial Weekend.
