I ran another half bucket and only got a single gold flake, but it was a little bigger than the rest in my vial. One is better than none and getting skunked. There was the usual amount of black sand though, so it seems like there should have been a couple more flakes.
I didn't take the sluice entirely apart when I power-washed, so that may have been why, or the area of the stream I dug into wasn't a good spot. Also, I let it go overnight again, that might have been part of it. If there is gold stuck in the sluice, I'll eventually take it entirely apart when I clean it again and find out.
