5 String Banjo Picking Pattern

I'd like two basic 5 string picking patterns for "G" tuning.
I already frsail some but I'd like to get ahead with some three finger
stuff. Not necessarily bluegrass but Kingston Trio? Chad Mitchell TRio type stuff would be fine.

Thanks

Don

Try this from Uncle Dave Macon;

Ub 2/4 time;

3 2 1 5 1 2 3
T I M T I M T


When you can do that, then double time the roll.
