I'm in the Bath area. Have panned a bit east of the US127 bridge - not good there. I assume you are west of Lansing. I've waded and fished from Airport Rd to Portland and know the river improves. Your description sounds interesting. Let me know if you would like to do some prospecting some time.
Other side of Lansing. I have what I think is a great spot. Tons of cobble, large boulders, and a curve with a large cliff that has cut into the bedrock. Also, my stream is all cobble.
The Looking Glass. I panned for a few hours last summer. Found tons of black, magnetic sand and little nuggets of iron pyrite. I am thinking about getting a gold cube out there.

I am looking to unload some of my smaller gold to finance my next dredge trip this spring.
Is any one interested?
I Currently live in Sanilac Co. but grew up in Eaton Co. and have fished the Looking Glass.
I would love to join you and do some sampling some weekend.
