Nice lookin' Gold! Beautiful creek to sluice! With some great buddies on new years Eve haha nice. I noticed my Ace bucket gets scratched pretty easy, but the orange Home Depot ones seem to hold up nicely. Take care out there and thanks for sharin'! 🙂🤙✌
Dude, that’s an awesome snuffer bottle carrier looks robust in the way that I think they should be now that’s freaking awesome , I had to comment before the end. Gosh, you guys are finding nice chunky gold.
I think the umbrella is cool. Keeps your gear dry. . That's a awesome spot. Great gold. . . I've been looking for a nice creek. All my spots are on major rivers. The gold you are finding there is chunky looking stuff. Great time out with great guys . I like the inspection mat u have in your sluice. I need to put one in my bigfoot dream mat sluice. That way I can see what I'm working with without cleaning up
Wow great 3 day trip bro!! Wish I could of made that run down,I'm totally jelly!! But,we will get after it soon and we will have some great trips,and yes we will get some gold too!! Thanks for sharing this amazing adventure,and put it in the 2023 vile,get a jump on Damon and rob!Rob!! Lol🇺🇲👊
Yeah bud really wish you could've come, nice digs, nice diggings, and a good crew. I'll be headin down about once a month, you're welcome to come anytime! Lol yup it was fun to kick their butts for once
My beautiful amazing wifey surprised me for my 30th birthday this year rented a tiny house out in southern oregon real close to some killer pickers/tiny nugget gold! I can’t wait! ❤ thank you for sharing you adventures truly inspiring! Nice shiny too!!!
Loved that snuffer bottle gift from Matt and his daughter. How cool was that?? It was great to seeing you again and wow you did great on the gold! I look forward to our next meet up!
Nice work Matt, sniping that spot worked out well for you! I’m glad we met and am looking forward to the next time. Thanks for sharing bud and I hope you hit that 1000 mark!
Yesssir brother! Not bad at all. Looked so hot out there, good to see you staying hydrated in the rain 😅keep slaying man and I’ll keep sweating here in the tropics 🤙🏻
Yup some of us are out here workin in the rain for scraps, while some others are getting paid to sit on a yacht lol. Cant' wait till your next visit bud!
Great job and nice gold, that's a nice start 2023 and you start early in the season so I'm sure you will have lot more gold and of course a 1000 sub before the season comes to an end! Cheers 🍻
Nice video and nice gold each day. I live in N California Gold Country and do a lot of panning and then sniping in the Summer. So much fun and the goal is to get an Ounce every year. Keep up the good work👍
Great videos, I can’t wait to start sniping at a creek I go to in the mother lode of California. I started my gold prospecting hobby beginning of this year, I’ve found also 5 grams so far. With the amount of gold I’ve found crevicing this winter I’m positive there’s a ton in the middle of creek but haven’t been able to get close to it due to amount of water coming down. Gold prospecting definitely by far has to be the most peaceful enjoyable natural high rush I’ve ever experienced haha. I feel fortunate to be able to drive 20 mins to creek whenever I want. What are your thoughts on thickness of wetsuit to wear to stay warm? Hoping to start sniping next month. Thanks for the videos you share, there great.
Hey Joshua thats awesome, you're in the right spot for sure, thats a great take for just 3 months. Once you get the hang of sniping you'll get really good gold, the heavier gold stays towards the very bottom of the creek and it really ads up sniping. I use an 8mm Hollis suit for water 37-55 degrees, then i switch to a 5mm from 55 up. Good to have 7mm boots and 5mm gloves for the colder months too. Good luck man!
Its awesome, good for about 42 to 60 degree water (too hot over 60). With an underlayer i can go down to 35 degrees most the day. Pockets are super handy too
Thanks man! Sorry can't give the creek away but if you're visiting Oregon both Josephine, Douglas, and Jackson counties have good gold. Check out mylandmatters oregon, helps alot to know where the gold is and what's claimed
How do you know of all these awesome spots? Are you a part of one of the mining clubs you pay for membership and they fill you in with all the knowledge?
I started with youtube videos, google, and just getting out there. Then meeting up with people that teach you tips and tricks and have spots of their own!
i worked for osmose once, do you work for them? it was a good job as long as your a single guy, got to travel a lot and i was younger then, lotsa digging and lotsa drinking then, lol not anymore, but awesome video i love the gold.
what's up with that umbrella ??? LOL I get so much grief from Gary about mine . Nice Gold haul
Hey it might not look cool but no soggy lunches! Thanks Jeff, was a nice end to 2022
@@insidebendprospecting LOL !!!! Staying dry is always a good thing
What a wild digging deland in the wild ? Lol good to see all the guys out digging for gold 👍🇺🇸⚒☘️
In the flesh, and out of his natural habitat (underwater) lol. Was a good crew that day

Thanks Andy, my buddy Matt gifted it to me. You'll have to pay us a visit, he's got a killer sniping spot: 3-10gram days!

Yup it was dumping that day, figured I'd give it a try. Yup small creeks are ideal for winter imo, since the water is high everywhere else
Right On, nice Recovery 👍 👌 Being with Friends Priceless 👍
Yup its a great crew!
What a blast fam. Great job all around. Nice au indeed. Keep on having fun and living the dream fam. You're doing great work. Gold Squad Out!!!
Thanks bud, it was an awesome weekend!
You Northerners are a tough breed. That cold air and water doesn’t even seem to slow you down. Nice work. Aloha
Thanks Tim! If we didn't go out in the rain, we'd never get to gold mine! Lookin forward to the Nugget Hunt
What a beautiful Oregon day! Nice gold!
Lol yes it was! Least the rain stopped the 2nd and 3rd days
Wow great 3 day trip bro!! Wish I could of made that run down,I'm totally jelly!! But,we will get after it soon and we will have some great trips,and yes we will get some gold too!! Thanks for sharing this amazing adventure,and put it in the 2023 vile,get a jump on Damon and rob!Rob!! Lol🇺🇲👊

Hey that's gonna be awesome! Last year i did the same, rented a small cabin and prospected almost every day
Loved that snuffer bottle gift from Matt and his daughter. How cool was that?? It was great to seeing you again and wow you did great on the gold! I look forward to our next meet up!
Yup those snuffer's were too cool! Good to see you too man, we're gonna have to take another crack at that creek

Nice work Matt, sniping that spot worked out well for you! I’m glad we met and am looking forward to the next time. Thanks for sharing bud and I hope you hit that 1000 mark!
Hey Tony! Good to meet you that weekend, you sure got a nice piece that first day. Hope to prospect with you again the next time I'm down.
You smashed that creek! I didn’t know there was that much gold in the whole creek! Good job.👍👍💪
Thanks Mitch! Good to see you bud. I think it's pretty all over in the main channel, but sitting on the grey clay
Yesssir brother! Not bad at all. Looked so hot out there, good to see you staying hydrated in the rain 😅keep slaying man and I’ll keep sweating here in the tropics 🤙🏻

Right on Gary, you're livin in the right area that's for sure! Good luck sniping, that's been the way I've found all my biggest pieces
Nice! You did well in that creek. I was wondering if you could snipe it good job!!
Thanks Matt, good to see ya that weekend. It was tough goin (not enough water) but was fun!

You're so close to 1,000 subs! 🤩
So close! I still need another 900 hours or so watch time before i can start raking in $5 per month though
How do you like the Hollis wetsuit?
Its awesome, good for about 42 to 60 degree water (too hot over 60). With an underlayer i can go down to 35 degrees most the day. Pockets are super handy too
Man wish I could find gold like that in Alabama good job 👍🕳️🇺🇸⛏️
That's how i feel about California! Hope you make it out west to chase gold sometime
What creek is this . I'm prospecting for first time heading west in June or can you recommend me a place. Awesome videos bro

Nice color ⚒️🪨🇺🇸👍
Thanks! was a good weekend
Nice. I think it'll be a great start on 2023. Not 2021. Please let's not go there again🙂
Thanks Richard, I'm hopin the same!
