[QUOTE="Marked, post: 34651, member: 1246"] Back ON TOPIC for the OP... :P YES, YES, YES...the matting (whatever you use) needs to be held down at the top to stop material (AND GOLD) from flowing under. In some sluices the riffle-grate wedges down to do the job...in others there may be a screw-down bar, [u]but this is essential[/u], and sounds likely to be your biggest issue given your description of the mat behaviour. Similarly, if the Riffle-grate isn't holding down on a mat, and water can flow between the riffles and a mat, the riffles won't be doing squat. [/QUOTE]
