Here is  a video of some panning I did a while ago.  I actually found a piece of gold big enough to be seen by the video camera, not a bad day down on the creek.  When I get a chance I want to check out the sucker tube that Grandma mailed me.  Thanks Grandma!  Hopefully I will be able to upload some "sucker tube" video action with a pan full o' gold.

Cool video Jake. If I were panning in that creek, after the water receeded somewhat so you can cross, I would go across the creek and get my pans by those big rocks. Move some of the smaller ones, and get the dirt from underneath. Trying right from the top dirt, and going deeper. I would go up the bank higher and try some of that dirt as well. Also you were standing by some grass in the video. Did you pull any of it up and pan it out? Grass roots are great gold catchers. Good luck.
