    Great vid Misha! Finding flood gold can be a lot of fun. Especially when the really big floods that come along every 25 years or so redistribute massive amounts of material. Leaving new layers of deposits higher up on the gravel bars and river banks around the inside bends. Usually gives us new prospectors several years of good digging.

    G'Day Misha, It's good to see how far you've come in 6 months. Your videos are way better now dude. You're now helping others in finding gold bearing areas in rivers...Lilly (The Manager) is getting bigger and cuter...Give her a scratch behind her ear for me. Great that you're now getting sponsors and referring watchers to them. You've grown this channel with every video. Might want to start wearing neoprene gloves to protect your hands from sharp rocks and the cold...It's summer soon here in Australia, so shorts and t-shirts will be out of the drawers. Remember to follow the line of big rocks to where gold will start dropping out to find the gold. Looking forward to the next six months. Great to see the channel growing and growing...RUclips Bronze button will come shortly if you keep releasing great vids...maybe have your codes or links on the screen when you mention them. Have a weigh-in at the end of each video no matter how small the amount. Keep up the great work...and thankyou for being you...some people try to copy others but you're keeping things simple and easy to understand. Maybe have a Patreon channel where you release vids early...it'll keep gas in your tank and help you to update your gear. I'm glad I found your channel when you were just starting out. Cheers!

    Absolutely loved the video Misha, GREAT JOB! ⛏️🤠👍
    Very informative and My great nephew's and nieces enjoyed every moment, their little hearts just thumping for the next time they get to go out with Uncle, to play in the dirt and the creek.
    It always helps immensely to have someone else explain how it is all done and show how that, more often than not, it is all trial and error in finding the gold... But so much fun getting there! Again; GREAT JOB! ✨⛏️🤠👍✨

    PS. I have NO gold bearing rivers where I live (just West of Houston). It’s all silt around here. I have to drive about 4 hours into the “Hill Country” to find bedrock.

      @ I can find gold up in the Frío River, but nothing where we live. We live on silt that has been building up for 40 to 50 million years.

    Also a really hot place to get nice amounts of gold is where the yuba flows into the feather right in marysville also below 5th street bridge since they added the new bridge there was lots of black sand. Also what no one talks about is the BLACK DIAMOND IN THE FEATHER RIVE IN Oroville!!

    About 8 to 10 years ago, I used to go out tonight‘s ferry with the gold hog gold pan. It’s like a mini sluice box and gold pan all in one and I would pull out between two and three day just right there off the trail where it turns left at the end of the main big trail.

    Any part of the Auburn recreation area is hands and pans only! You have to be upstream of the end of the Pennyweight trail before you can sluice. It's a big fine if you are caught by a ranger including the loss of your equipment.

    Your best crevice will be crossing the river (horizontal) not following or (parallel). If the crevice goes the same direction as the river it becomes what the old timers called a race.

    If you decide to go to the feather river DO NOT AND BE AWARE OF THIS WARNING!!! If you go to the oroville dam you will be arrested for taking gold out of the river..there were many construction employees fired because of this… also be extremely attentive to rattlesnakes as well .. ALSO THE YUBA RIVER DO BE VERY CAREFUL AT PARKS BAR BRIDGE. If you’re thinking of camping in your car DO NOT!!! Pay the money and go to the camping place. Atleast there there’s people and it’s safe.
