[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 12082, member: 147"] G'day Scott, Riffle section is way too over engineered. The section Tone outlined should answer most of your questions. If there's anything missing feel free to chuck some more questions out there mate. Most river sluices run on low water speed so moss and a sheet of expanded is all you need. Take a quick look at my vid on how to build a Hi - Banker and that will give you some idea on trapping proportions.(just scale them down to suit a river sluice). Your egg crate left as is will fill with gravel and immediately clog. The section TONE is talking about shows my sampling box at the bottom of the thread. Keep the trapping section no more complicated than that. Hope this helps mate. Cheers Wal. :) [/QUOTE]
