    Dropping it repeatedly like a clinker. I'd call that a thumper! 😂. I'd be doing the same thing while laughing and shaking, too.
    Thanks for sharing that. Great find!

    Excellent find! I cant believe that bedrock crack had been overlooked in that location, such a frequented spot and no one had ever dug that it looked excellent!

    Nice little nugget! In the early 70's my Dad and I often fished the Feather river below Sloat. On one trip I took a mask and did a little sniping. I found gold and have been sniping ever since.

    Nice picker. Not being able to move a little 100lb rock has old "Buzzard Thompson" Rollin over. Go back there, move the rock with a fulcrum and crowbar . I bet there's good color under it and on the upstream side, huh Jeff?

      There was spotty service on the way in. I can’t remember if there was service down at the river.

    I think the spot in the beginning of your vid where you said was old channel was actually an old hydraulic waste pile. still a good place to look! Nice nug! Makes me want to get out with the metal detector!

      Good question I added the info to the description. Bounty Hunter 3300 and it has a 4in nugget search coil attached.

    How much would a nugget like that cost?? Or how much could you get for that?

    • @Thomas_Nish
      @Thomas_Nish Год назад

      Probably a 4-6 gram nugget. Someone would pay easily $400-$600 for it, nuggets get a big boost over spot gold price

      @@The_fishingfool You proved what many are not learning is that a cheap detector can do what an expensive one will do in the right area. That is awesome. I have found good gold downstream many years ago in a crack above the water level behind a guy using a 5 inch dredge when it was legal. Is it legal to use a detector there? I heard it wasn't in the Auburn State Rec area..
