Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic....
Hi Vo gus Prospecting. love your vids. Can you tell me if the gold from the Channel Maximov Ro the guy finds is real?
God no. He's just faking it for RUclips revenue.
@@VoGusProspecting Thanks bro. bloody thought so coz you cannot comment on any of his vids.
@@mohammednovalija Well its true.
@@mohammednovalija I was being nice. At best hes an entertainer and that's fine. But it is fake and i'm not going to pretend otherwise.
This Maximov Ro is a scoundrel and a knave. Preying on the uninformed is not nice.
I compare Gold Prospecting like fishing. You spend big $$$ for tackle gear and accessories to catch a $10 fish. However, you never know when you'll catch the big one !! Like you said, it's the pleasure and memories make it fun. Cheers !! 🤠
Hi chris a fellow country man taught me to rewind electric motors. Yes its about being out doing the hobbies. Talking to others doing the same. Its great your out there. Thanks Russell
I am with you. I do not understand why people sitting at home do not understand the fun of getting outside and seeing/experience something no laptop/tv/computer can ever give them. please keep it up. i love your knowledge and show thx for sharing your knowledge
Some people put a price on everything and value nothing
You are so right . I have spent thousands on metal detectors that I will never get back . It's a hobby . The anticipation of knowing you will find goodies but not what said goodies will be does it for me . Keep on diggin' my friend .
Was rewatching this video and my dog Smokey caught a glimpse of Griz. I wasn't fast enough to get him on video of talking to Griz. But now Smokey looks for him every video lol. Keep up the awesome job. FYI enjoy B.C. it's a beautiful place.
Smokey is a cool name!
Thank you.
It is the best hobby I ever took up. If I didn't have 2-3 hours of driving every time I went it would more than pay for itself. Regardless I would be out on a creek somewhere whether I was prospecting or just sitting quiet watching the world. Thanks for the nice video Chris Vogus!
I forget to pan sometimes and i find ive been sitting and thinking for like 40 minutes out there
People struggle to understand, gold prospecting is just like fishing...only way more enjoyable.
I love the bush & finds are only the icing on the cake.
Gold isnt as slippery as a fish
Vo-Gus Prospecting And you don't take that smell home or need a 50k boat, launching fees, service costs, expensive tackle etc, etc.
in fact, gold prospecting can even make you money. Imagine that for a hobby 👍🏻
I dig that enthusiasm vibe .The Costa Georgiadis of prospecting.
Ive never been compared to Costa before, i like it
Just purchased a Gold Monster today, was helpful video Thanks. Kind regards David
I learn something new everytime I watch your video. The scenery tree's and the creek is spectacular. I could sit there and listen to the water running down the creek. It's is so calming.
Glad you like them
you're right mate, it's all about the fun of looking and maybe finding something, never about the money...I know an old bloke who has been going out for years, gold was about three or four hundred an ounce then. Now he has a pile of it worth about 20,000. The point being, gold keeps going up and all those 10, 20 and 30 dollar finds finally add up to a decent sum.
Hi Chris. I’ve been watching your vids for a few months now and just wanted to say thanks for all your gold panning efforts. It is a pleasure to watch real guys like you, Pioneer Pauly, Dan Hurd etc. I have been panning for a lot of years but you can always learn more from others as well. Keep on keeping on and I’ll keep watching...thanks!
Who says you are being stupid? They must be stupid. You have always said the way you do you isn't all about getting the maximum amount of gold. I have found you to be very knowledgeable and I thank you for making these videos. Thanks Chris!
You'd be surprised at the comments I have to remove.
That was a great instructional video on the GM, which coil is stock? The 5" or 10"?
Both coils come in the box when you buy it. Most go right to the 5".
Klesh, I’m surprised your not swinging one of these already. If ya know someone with one try it out. Will catch smaller bits the GPZ 7000 misses even. And like Chris said comes with both coils. I just got my 3rd in yesterday. Long story hah but think third is the charm packed properly and not bashed in shipping. 👍🏻
Hi Chris, im so glad that you went with the original into music at the end, it brang back some good memories👍
Spot on Chris. It's not about making a ton of money prospecting or metal detecting. It's about the hunt and being in the great outdoors!
Well said. Some people miss the point of going bush and just looking around. Finding a little bit of gold is a bonus. 👍
Personally I don't care if your making a living off this. I justl enjoy the videos honesty and the absolutely great knowledge you leave on the web for novice and experienced prospectors alike. You the man! And loved when Pioneer and Klesh came over.
I don't prospect for gold but I do metal detect as a hobby. You are absolutely correct in that a day with a bag of pennies and pull tabs is better and more fun than not doing anything..
Ahhhh, pull tabs
This is the best video I have seen about how to properly use the monster...I like it especially because you have a great attitude towards prospecting and life in general
You’re videos rock. Love the enthusiasm and the knowledge you give us newbies. And the dog is a STAR. Thanks for your time.
It's really Grizzlys channel
Your explanation of why you do it. Yes, it's just another hobby that gets you into the outdoors. As a small kid, I looked forward to Easter and the challenges of finding the most eggs. So, I kind of look at it as an adult version of Easter egg hunting.
Thanks for another great vid. When I want to make money, I go to work, then I can afford to enjoy myself fossicking with no illusion of getting rich. The real golds is simply enjoying what you do!
Gold prospecting is a way of life!!! I have a creek in my back yard. I never even went to it for 7 years after we bought the 10 acres of land. I had been watching videos of prospectors and decided to go check out my creek. I absolutely love it now! I don't give a damn if I find a bunch of gold or not. I am retired at age 46 so prospecting is just for fun now and always will be! I may go get a few claims out west later but for now i am fine here. If anyone gives you bad comments just ignore the idiots! They have no clue of how fun the prospecting life is! Basically, we all enjoy different things so go do what you like and if it isn't prospecting then go watch the videos of what you like and leave us the heck alone! Some of us don't need money because we already made all we need!! Oh, I just ordered the gold monster 1000!!! Yay for me!! Next I will be buying the gpx5000! For those 2 detectors is $5k. I have already found some gold and I hope Noone else gets in the hobby so I can find it all, haha j/k!
Regardless of what other people think. Your a happy person enjoying what you do. This makes you a legend. Troy from Kalgoorlie.
Hi Chris, you're NEVER wasting your time making us happy! You're fams appreciate what you do😉
NEVER STOP!💕
Cheers Mate, i wont
Your camera work is getting so much better! Loving the transitions and video lining up with the tunes, loved this one most!
I am finally ditching my old gold bug 2 for a monster! Thank you I'll definitely try the larger coil on as high manual as we can.It should be good for our channel as well it's such a good popular machine ..cheers🙂
Trolls are a sign that you have a successful channel. If you're finding lots of gold they will accuse you of salting it, if you are finding very little they will say you are wasting your time. Ignoring and or blocking them is the best cure. Have a great day.
Awesome video!
My favorite tip that I just discovered - if you want ULTRA COMPACT, put on the small coil, and unscrew one section of rod. Attach the "stick adapter" that comes in the box (the thing that allows you to attach the coil to any kind of stick) to the end of the section of rod, and put the rest of the detector together on the one section. It all fits.
It works for me, it might work for someone else, too :)
OMG! Chris you are like one of the few that can get my name right! Thanks!!! :) People just don't understand it's not about the MONEY. It's about just doing it. It's Therapeutic...but it has a chance to pay for itself. Like Crafting...ya do it because you like to. If you can sell some of it- GREAT. You doing the things you do helps others while helping yourself as well. It's a win-win as long as you keep enjoying it.
After a life time of people getting my name wrong i feel like i have to try really hard to get others right
I've had my GM for about 3 weeks and have been looking for some info on the coils cheers mate!
Small coil on clean bedrock, it'll pick up dust. But big coil in the field.
Love your video mate, I really love your attitude too. Keep doing what your doing, you are a great encourager to others who just want to get out there and have a bit of fun.
And wat a wonderful hobby my friend! Nothing better than getting out into the Australian bush and looking for a bit of mustard, awesome stuff mate nice looking ground
"It's hobby. It's a bit of fun". So true. I feel the same, every time i go prospecting. Thanks for sharing another great video, Chris. I hope you are well. Good night!
To hell with working for fun
Chris don’t give in to the naysayers. You’re doing a great service for us who want to learn and it’s just fun. Keep up the great work.
It's not givin in, its making it clear where I stand.
I recently retired, I have a 4WD and 16’ caravan or a tent and my son gave me a Gold Monster 1000 for Christmas. What more could I want. I also photograph birds and plants and I paint watercolours. Thanks for your helpful video. Regards Susan in Nsw
That sounds like a great time
Love your attitude mate.
It’s all about the memories 👍🏼
Mate, so long as you are having fun, it matters not what others think. Being out in the bush with mates and your furry bestie, is way better than sitting on the couch or sitting on a stool in a pub. I've never hunted for gold, and more than likely never will, but still enjoy your videos. No bullcrap, just out enjoying yourself and if you pick up $5 of shiny stuff then you can buy a frozen coke on the way home. Keep doing what you do champ!!!
This is exactly the reason I do it.
Gold detecting is relaxing. Who cares if it doesn’t pay the bills. I had my sniffer bottle float away with two days of panning. We just start again 😁 invaluable time with my daughter.
I am glad you came up with the I am doing this as a hobby statement .. I enjoy the hunting for gold out in the wilds in peaceful and beautiful locations . your not going to get rich ,unless your very very very lucky .. but the memories will live on for ever .. My greatest fear is that I find a nugget that's too big and heavy to carry away with me lol !!
So true it’s not about what you find it’s about getting out there in the peace and quite in nature gold is just a bonus I love the bush and I find it so relaxing to clear the mind and nothing better than a good scratch around and wash a few pans love your vids matey
You are exactly right...it's about having fun and not the money. I truly enjoy you videos!!
Thanks mate
Thank you for teaching me some more about gold prospecting in another great video.
Your videos inspired me to head out with a gold pan and a hand trowel to my nearest park. I found this giant boulder that had been carved out by the river, scooped out all the loose bits, and found some specks I could actually see!
Next I plan on buying a yabby pump. I found tons of great crevices but had a hard time getting in there. I knew my hand shovel wasn't adequately getting the gold resting on the bedrock and I feel like the park visitors would be unhappy seeing me hacking away at the ground with a pickaxe.
Just go at night lol
Another top video Chris, and you’re spot on, it’s a hobby, a great hobby, finding gold is just a bonus.
Amen for the FUN brother!! Great video as always. Nice tips on detecting.
Great work, you sure are right have dig all targets never know what you dig up and if its trash you are just cleaning up the environment
Hi Mate you keep doing what you do so bloody well and your helping me with the black dog I'm fighting so great work as usual
I had a great time out with you and Grizzly.Best tips I've learned are from you two,respecfully.you of coarse.
Grizzlys the real star
My first nugget from WA was a 7gm inspiration.....value not much but as you said its the experience and being in the great outdoors. My machine was a Minelab SD 2100 awesome smooth machine. Picked up another at Cue and Marble bar. Good luck we all hope to find the big one
Cheers Mate, 7 grams is pretty awesome!
I've had some very good luck with the GM10x6 coil, even for coin shooting, it goes deep in mild ground. You can even pick between a $2 and 5c, the $2 has a way mellower sound and the 5c is really zippy. Still coming to grips with the GM 05, haven't used it nearly as much as the 10, but it seen to work for you and LDC and Busted Nuckles so I've tried it out but I've been nowhere near as successful as the GM10. Awesome vid😀🇦🇺
First time seen ya vid, great job, where were ya prospecting (country) liked your reply to the haters (waisting time etc) l’ve been 4wd/camping/fishing for many years, new to the prospecting, loving it, find it very therapeutic, it’s all about getting outdoors and having fun👍
Nice vid Chris, cheers for the pointers on the gold monster 👌
Cheers Mate
I dont do it for money. I do it for the journey. Getting out and meeting people and the fun of the hunt. Cheers HH
I've watched a fair few of your videos now and trust me I get it.
I've done a lot of metal detecting & so many people think it's all about what you can sell something for, nar it's about having a bit of fun & if you get some extra $ that's a bonus.
Thanks for the tips. I'm hitting more targets after going over same ground.
Good morning, if possible, I would like to know if the equinox 800 in the gold digging function can catch small gold nuggets in the same way as the gold monster ... if it is equal to or better than the gold monster in this function because it is multifrequency .... what if the gold monster works well in other functions besides fetching only gold ... i mean fetching artifacts ,, jewelry ,, lost coins inside the woods ,, lakes .... if you can give me an opinion. .. help me .... thanks ..... I still could not find any video of gm 1000 being used this way .... thanks.
Great video!
I’ve subscribed.
Had a good couple of days with my little MOSTER w week or two ago in a land far, far away...
A really good couple of days! Hahahahaha!
I’m still a bit shaky...
It’s out there boys!
One tip I could bring!
Secure you wire from the coil.
Velcro is great as it’s fast to put on and fast to take off as you swap sizes.
Believe me, you don’t want it flopping around one little bit...
Good luck prospectors...👍
Well said vogus time out in the bush is priceless I agree with u 100% so don’t listen to the hecklers I go detecting all the time and haven’t found a single piece yet
I took me a year to detect my first bit
You know my friend that the old timers always had a bad of gold dust so it does add up. I always enjoy you and grizzly on your adventures. Great video buddy
Damn right Brother. One thing we never have to worry about is seeing those knuckleheads out digging more then once or twice after they see all the effort. You either love the experience or you fizzle out after a few trips. Good news is we can buy all their equipment barely used. Love the videos and may you find gold in every pan.
Superb video , enjoyed watching immensely, grizzly doing a fine job helping as usual, brilliant 👍⛏🐶
Cheers Mate
That looked like a good fun day and on top of it you found a little gold. Thanks for the video.
Love your videos, and you are out in the field for the right reasons!
Yer bro, the adventure
G'day Vo-Gus, great show mate. Love the attitude that you are putting out there too man, good stuff.
I get finding shotgun pellets means gold could be near but what is the reason u keep them? Thanks. Love the channel bud!
Hi Chris great video, some people just can't comprehend the value is in the enjoyment !
People pay for these experiances after all
You make interesting and easy to watch offerings, i've never been prospecting, but find the process relaxing and somehow rivetting!
Must connect with the curiousity bit of the brain!
And ignore if you can the snide and malicious comments about cash values etc etc.
Some people know the price of everything and the value of nothing.
Do what gives you pleasure, Grizzly has it right, a good stick to chew and some water to splash in.
Makes for an untroubled mind.
Best Wishes.
Another quality video chris thanks for posting , have you heard of the xp orx detector ? If so what are your thoughts about it ? ✌️✌️👍
Friend of mine has it. Good machine.
The thing I like about the GM is it's an idiots machine, turn on, ground balance and go.
The ORX has a little more too it, so it's too complex for what I want to do. Not a bad thing, just a personal choice.
@@VoGusProspecting thanks for the info mate its much appreciated ,im going to buy either the gm or the orx they are priced similar and are both good machine's✌️👍✌️ wish you the best of luck for your future adventure's .
Nice one mate
Donnie said put in the gold mode full rip
And settles it right down
I have doing that no we’re near as noisy
When I think it’s repeatable I then turn on
The all metal mode and listen for
That wobble pop noise
And he also said coil to the soil lol
Cheers Crouch
HAHAHAHAHA ... LOVED Grizz getting in there and sniffing out a bit of something (Not sure if it was gold or (s)not)...
And LOVE Grizz with the "gift" ending (though I think we should have seen what was inside or him ripping it open) ... hahahaha
Just found your channel looking for some info on how to have fun and prospect👌🏻 now a eternal subscriber hahahaha great knowledge and even better content
Cheers mate, hope you find more that you like
Great blogs watching from Bris. Sure beats ,the rat race .Keep on doing what you have passion in. Learning a lot 👍
Love ya, man. Love your vids. Keep on doing what you do!
Am watching you Vo gus cause your clearly passionate about it and it's REAL. Keeping hunting bro. You can't find anything sitting on the couch and when you find it, it will look awesome in your collection, not your belly :)
Cheers Mate, sometimes i find the remote in the couch
Awesome video Chris, keep them coming cheers
I live in Alaska. We only get about 3 months without snow and 24 hrs of sun. Unless I plan to prospect in the snow in the dark? Lots of different terrain and creeks, and rocky beaches. Looking for mainly gold, and also native artifacts. So with money aside. What do you recommend for an all-around detector with a coil? 6 in sounds nice! How do you like the DD coils? Would like some depth as well. Lots of mountain rock here? Your advice will be honored!. I found a 7.97-gram nug just by chance. Got the fever now. I'm only worried about a bear sneaking up on me at the creek or somewhere.🤠
You hit it on the nose Chris. Thanks, great video.
Cheers Mate
Awesome find with the detector
So many different places to go to for you Chris. Roughly how far do you travel. 1 , 2 or more hours from home?
My closest spot is an hour and a bit from home but not many choices there
Nice video and great attitude. I do gold panning because of the same reason :)
Ignore the nay-sayers. They're just jealous that thru aren't out doing something interesting. A lot of people ask me the same question when i show them gold i have collected. Where did you get it? They should be asking, "how" instead. Research, practice and just getting out - eventually you're rewarded with a little gold. But that is just frosting on the cake. Nevermind what they say. You are one of the people that inspired me tho get out and get it!
I have a gold monster.
A few weeks ago I found a good area to detect I got a few hits dug them up to find bird shot. Walked a little way along and found a pile of spent shotgun shells.
I turned around put the gm back in the truck and moved on. I'll go back there with a highbanker next time, as a detector would have Ben a waist of time.
Dammmmm mate the people saying your wasting your time only care about money I’ve been prospecting for a while and I’m not rich or even making anything I do for the love of nature and the love of history one of the best feelings is finding wild gold in my pan. And your videos are great almost the same stuff I deal with in my quest for the yellow stuff so thank you for your help in my quest
Mate if you love doing it don't give a damn about what the haters say good on you mate
I'm with you Chris i dont give a rodents rear end
if i find anything but it is a bonus if you do
getting out into the bush is worth much more
Dude I love what you do. Keep the videos coming
WIll do man!
Cheers Kris for another awesome video keep it up :D
What detector would you recommend for a newbie (Australian)
Do what makes you happy , ignore the other stuff, some people think things make you happy but it’s not true, peace and tranquility can be some of the greatest treasures we can give to ourselves, keep being yourself and enjoying your times in the bush with Grizzly 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻🇦🇺
you know, take the critics and throw them off a pier, i watch alot of different videos and your videos are very funny at times, educational- i learn from them. i love your dog. so tell em shove off mate. your doin a great job.
Another good video Chris always interesting Grizzly add that extra touch of Awesomeness to your videos thank you for sharing I've learned a lot from you peace out
Nice machine!! Seems fair for the price..do u have a gold bug2 Also?
No I don't, I've used the GB2 but don't own one. Good machine, struggles a little in our soils.
Quartz is one of the lightest rocks in the world. It can only be heavy when mineralized
But if you go test my theory you'll find I'm right. If you find a large concentration of it you'll find gold.
How far away from your home (time wise) is your creek (are your creeks)? MY nearest placer spot is 1 1/2 hours - makes "quick trips" tiresome and gas-expensive....
I am in the same situation. Wish I could just ride my bike out to the creek, 3 hours of driving is a pitb.
Pauly the vampire follower is watching. I love your channel sir, I gain knowledge and you bring me in your adventures. And I love your dog.
Mate I like your attitude. Perhaps these people making snide remarks would like to show what they've done with their weekend. Most likely got their exercise sitting back with a beer in front of the telly. Keep up the good work, I enjoy your videos.
You do a top notch job, Chris. Your videos are well worth the PATREON tier that I just committed to. Buy a bone for Grizzly. Make it pork cause he is already a ham.
Hahahaha, Grizzly is a ball of goofy love
