Prospecting Q?

[JrallXS]

the gold bearing creek I go to used to be a swimming hole back in the 70's until the dam that made it got tore down in 2000. Is it best to prospect before or after the dam

Upstream from where the dam used to be. Then downstream since I'm sure there has been a lot of water moving through it since 2000. Good Luck!

I'd check both sides.

Gold is where you find it.

Keep in mind what happens to the stream when it encounters a large body of water.

I might be inclined to start poking around where the stream entered the swimming hole before close to and downstream of the dam.
