Another great video, Gary! I was out this weekend crevassing on a very isolated patch of river and came up on some younger men working a bank with a sluice. We got to talking and the guy says to me that he’s learned everything he knows from this guy on RUclips..but he couldn’t remember his name. After listening to him talk a bit I said, “you’ve been watching Two Toes!” He was so enthusiastic with what he’s learned from your RUclips post (as am I). Anyway, I thought that was pretty cool considering we were the only people around for quite a ways and here we are two Two Toes fans. Keep it up!
Thank you - my Grandpa would be proud. He was very big on learning and instilled in me that you must pass on the knowledge.
@@TwoToes same thing happened to me 2 weeks ago on the Yuba River a guy was asking me for advice on how I got my gold there I told him to watch your videos he said he already did
My FAVORITE is panning out crevice targets and panning them out.. That shine in the pan is just indescribable. Taking that chance of finding big gold or nothing, is the gamble some of us with gold fever live for! I find there is a tough balance between being productive out there, and bringing the camera equipment to share it. Time gets lost when filming but ive learned that I would rather share my experience with other enthusiasts rather than find gold all by myself. I really enjoy watching your videos Gary and I cant wait to *actually* come and meet the king.
At my age you might not want to wait to long. lol
Every time you post a video, you are positively impacting 43,000 individuals. Stop for a moment and think about it. How many of us get to do that? You're a good teacher, and a great inspiration to many. Thank you for your efforts.
This is one of most genuine, honest and humble gold prospecting channels I follow, and also one of the most successful and educational in gold prospecting! I really appreciate the effort to make such great videos, you know... carrying cameras, mikes and stuff around... taking the time to explain and analyze the situation "live"!
You are the best. The goodness in you shines out. Good luck always.
thanks Gary, if you didn't find nothing, know we're with you regardless.
It's always a pleasure to hear that Bell go off of The Two Toes Goat!!
Two Toes is a golden god. I love your videos and appreciate your knowledge. Please make more.
Even without getting out as much as I would like to get some practice I continue to learn so much from you Gary. Sort of getting a sense of what you look for is truly invaluable. Thank you sir.
Awesome Gary! You could tell you were happy by your expression. I am REALLY looking forward to the next videos! Thanks!
It is really heart warming to see you get some real nice gold for all of your hard work! Not to mention what it must take to do the videos also! Really enjoyed the video!
Good video with some nice gold thanks for taking us along.
Now that's some good gold, close to a quarter ounce! Great job Gary!
Aww spoiler. xD
Thanks for making my day with that video ! Can't get enough of watching you metal detecting for gold !!! Keep e'm coming !!!!
That's some really nice gold. I tell ya, Gary. I always stop whatever I'm doing to watch your videos.
Wow! Thats some nice looking gold. Always look forward to mondays for a two toes adventure. Much love from Lake county.
Know any good panning spots in Lake Co.? You should see the crazy amount of lead (but no gold) I pulled out of the Russian River yesterday.
You're the man Gary. Your skill set is beyond impressive. Thanks for sharing the adventures, keep those videos coming and Semper Fi!
Fantastic results Gary , I just got home from work and I had a nice hot coffee while watching your video . Thanks for uploading such entertaining and just down right enjoyable videos for us to watch .
Nice Gary ! Great chunking gold ! 👍🇺🇸⚒🍀😎
Dang. That was a productive trip. Nice chunks of gold.
That was some kind of day Gary. Thanks for sharing it.
You're killing me, man! "Not a real big piece" is bigger than I will ever find in South Carolina.
RUclips knows to put your videos top left once I hit the homepage. That's some great gold!
Yes, I can see Gold prospecting and fishing have many things in common. Like, the further you are from parking the better your chances. Hiking is your friend.
Great Gold !!!!!!!! Nice job your on the Gold now !!!!!
Right on! Nice gold Gary! Thank you for sharing your adventures.
Great video, Gary. Grats on the beautiful gold. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, nice finds Gary! I'd pitch a tent nearby and spend a weekend/week prospecting a spot like that.
It’s Augest ! Thought ya went fish’n ? Jeff will never catch up now !
Nice video chunky gold ....Thank You Gary fer sharing.
he's fishing and I just got home from taking the youngest to college !!!!
"...had to strip down to my underwear, and that water is cold. I didn't film that part, so... you're welcome." LOL! Fabulous day, Gary! Well done!!!
Another great video Gary. Love watching a true master at work
Good take. I love watching the shows and listening in. Not much gold in Delaware but this would be an awesome day out of doors.
Fantastic natural wild-caught gold! Thanks Gary
Can't wait until next Monday morning. Great going, Gary.
YOUR NOT TOOOO OLD TO BE DOING THIS, YOUR A PRO!! AND A ROLE MODEL, DONT GIVE UP
Oblong targets like Wire, Nails and like can cause the Double Blip sound. On both VLF and PI machines. More so on VLF machines. Thankz for another cool Video Sir.
Gary, your the man! Learned a lot from ya. Will be heading to the Yuba near Washington soon, wish me luck
Dan in Roseville
Great chuck of river, my first time in there was 1965. Caught a lot of fish and found some nice gold! Best of luck!
good luck
Exciting.....Gold Nuggets......Great Find......Congrats Two Toes !!!!
Two thumbs up for some good looking gold. I will be looking forward to your next adventure.
Your the king of big gold! Love your videos two toes!
ah cool, another video from Two Toes : that makes this a wonderful day.
That's some. nice gold there Gary good-looking chunks. That's a pretty area up in there. Thank you for sharing peace out
Well well well Gary, I would call that a master class in finding gold. Good on ya buddy enjoyed that one.
You mentioned you find very little lead at that spot . Any thoughts on why??? and/or.....is the difference in the minerals or human activity???
Thanks agaian for sharing this adventure.
The access is very limited. Most of the lead you find in the rivers comes from the solder they used on the old canned goods, bullets, and fishing weights. Most of the old camps are downstream, its a lousy area to hunt ( to steep). A few fishermen will hike up there and that's most the lead I find.
Thanks Gary for the reply !
I love the big gold like you.I'm also waiting for the water to drop so I can go back to the new place where I did not even a full 10" pan and found a nice little bit in bedrock.
Oh yeah! Go Large or Go Home! Loved every second of this trip!!!
Now your getting it! lol
That was a good day nice chunky gold. I’m really looking forward to the next video. I like the sniping and want to see more chunks. Great video
Always enjoy watching Gary , back episodes I haven’t seen , really enjoyed 👍 that is strange that it’s always one piece of gold .
Ok ok I'm up gary! Thanks for another video
Killer day detecting, well done!
Wow Gary! Great finds. Love those spots that are hard to get to because there's usually something left! I've tried taking a borrowed metal detector up to the spot I met you at, but the Gold Bug 2 just squeaks all over the place at everything at that location, definitely doesn't sound crisp and clear like the machine you are using, maybe too many hot rocks or something. I like the idea of metal detecting right against bedrock in the crevice though, that makes sense! Good job
ZOWIE! $296 Gold Value !! Big Day for Big Gold, You had that Whites TDI PI detector ZEROED IN DEAD NUTS, WAY TO GO!
I like that idea about going upstream in a wet suit. You are in a good spot. That gold was spectacular.
Time mark 14:01.Did that wall behind you use to lay flat before geological forces caused uplift?
Really nice Gold Gary. Always look forward to your adventures.
Will be checking out a creek this Friday. So you went for the crevices, not always down at the water, no goldbug2? Crevice tool, pretty big crowbar to hike in with, crevice "spoon", pan for cleanups. Nice not to see so much lead & iron. Hope to see those pickers.
What a day!! Congratulations Gary!
Whoa! Some nice chunkers there. Well done matey
Gary your the best out there bar none.I've waited almost a month for this video and it was worth the wait.To bad you don't have a dedicated camera man or women,You would be able to prospect so much more.Hope all is well and God bless.
Another great video Gary 👍👍keep up the good work and good luck in finding the golden nuggets 👍👍
I just love how much I can and do learn from you Toe Toes. Thank You Sir...
Looks like you're getting close to the source. Nice looking gold
Gary, I'm burnt out on small gold too... I will be going as near to Reeds gold mine\Little Meadow creek as I can get very very soon.... I just don't believe that all big gold has been found here in Americas first gold rush area in North Carolina. I've been prospecting since the 70's... From Haile gold mine and Brewer gold mine areas of South Carolina, and so over North Carolina gold belt region. I'm still using my GoldBug and all other equipment... One of my favorite sluice boxes? The Grizzly3. BearBottom Mining did a fine job on this design. I'm surprised that I don't see anyone using it to prospect with. Ok...thanks for all you share with us!
Awesome gold ! I hope you checked your Boot treads after the river crossing, knowing your luck there's one or three Nuggets stuck in there!
Gary,
Of all your videos this one was one of my favorites! BTW... Thanks for not sharing the underwear aquabatics in this video. That was a plus!
I just picked up a claim in LaPorte and my wife wont let me go alone... Apparently bears or cougars are waiting to eat me there.LOL Its on the other side of Slate Creek. If you ever have a chance? I would like to talk with you.
Just keep diggin!
" One of these days " If I get out your way , I owe you a number of beers - hopefully a cold rainy day , to not take away from find nuugets ;)
Howdy Garry 🤠.
Howdy BKP!
Morning! At the coat right now - getting ready to head out for tuna this morning.
Another great video Gary! great chunky gold!
Do you think the Garrett 300 detector is worth getting for my first detector or should I save for a better one? I would like to use it for gold hunting like you are here but I’ll probably use it more for detecting fields as I’m pretty much in the cities where I live.
Phew, wasn’t sure if there would be a new video this week with your annual fishing trip! I’m glad there is 😅
Great video as always, you are my favourite youtuber, I love your informative, layed back style and I love all that nice gold you get. Keep em comin and thank you for producing such great videos👍😁
That was simply awesome, I love seeing those feral nuggets getting domesticated. It never gets old seeing them in the crevice before you pull them out! Thanks as always for sharing Gary.
Very nice....mission accomplished!
What a nice haul! I always enjoy your videos. Good hunting!
nice weight of gold, a great day on the coil cheers Glenno.
Sniping! I love watching your sniping videos. It always amazes me how much you find.
One of your best videos yet! Thanks for sharing.
Dang Gary!! Great day to have a pan in your hand.
Have your crevice tool which I love and drivin across next week. From Fla to TheN Calif mountains. Have a spot that never lets me down. Watching your vids on creviceing and I’m hoping your advice works for me! My question is I do this by myself and so I have to be careful I don’t get lost. Can you crevice in a hydraulic pit or is that a waste of time. I normally metal detect . La Porte area. Thank you Patty
Its nice when it makes a noise dropping back in the pan
Great stuff Gary, what beautiful gold. Why don't you try MineLabs SDC 2300. Not only is it waterproof but designed for what you're doing there. Apparently its a very good all-rounder. I know it's not US tech, but it is new technology that's meant to work a treat and probably worth a try. I don't have one, just been watching a few shows where people have been using them like WestOzAdventures where they use the SDC as a backup to their big detectors. The big detectors have the big coils that cover more ground faster, and probably deeper, where the SDC with the smaller coil takes a little longer but is more sensitive. Just a thought.
Beautiful area to be in, would have liked to see a bit more of the surrounding wilds, maybe a bit of the walk in/out.
Thanks for the share :)
mission accomplished, yet again. i very much enjoy your videos and would like to thank you for all the time and effort it takes not only to go on an adventure but also to make a video so as u can take us along. im not a prospector but would like to try my hand at it and i believe your videos have alot of good practical knowledge in them.
out of water? ...but...you're on ..?? Great vid. Looking forward to this coming season
Was it the same for the old timers you know with only one piece of gold in a crevice? Or lots ? How cool it would have been to see before the strike of 49...
Watching your videos to get closer with my step mom and GO GET HER THAT NUGGET! Thank you so much were in Colorado and have found probably 0.001 g of flood gold I hope when I go back to Alaska with the family we can find some serious gold with my grandpa too
Two tows heading to California could you let me in on a cool place to go panning and crevicing. Thank you so much to toast for all the knowledge I've gained from you so far it's awesome. I'll be traveling from Washington State, I am a native Californian I lived in the Sierras for quite some time but that was mostly as a child. If you could I'm taking a friend and we'd like to go picking thank you.
Very impressed, If I ever get to doing this one day, there would be no doubt about what it is with lumps like that coming up.
Nice nuggets! There is 'only one' because the big alphas fight for territory. ;)
Hey Gary good morning, you guessed it. Jon from Vancouver Island. What would the signs be of the source of the gold.. would it be on those Hills, or along the bank?
It was a really good hunthing treap , lots of sucess for you and your canal. Big hug from Holland.
As it is when you post, It's a good day. Enjoy your channel and am waiying for thr next "Movie". First one was damn good.
Great dig Two Toes..really nice!
Mr. Gary, i wanted to know your thoughts on the fisher gold bug pro and/or gold bug 2. i really want to get in the Mtn and start sniffing for Au but i dont own a detector yet and before i buy i would like to have your opinion on a decent starter machine for somebody that cant put the money up for a whites or compairable. Thank you kindly.
The Goldbug 2 is a great detector. Not to sure about the pro, I think 19 kHz is to low for the smaller pieces. The vlf detectors do have there limitations but they can find very small gold and can work in some areas where the pulse machines don't work as well.
Great video as always, Gary - well done!!!!
great video! I want one of those crevicing tools. What's it called and where do you get one?
You can get them at - honans-mining-supplies.myshopify.com/ But not until Sept 15. I am on my annual fishing trip and won't be back until then.
"I think this is flood gold"; Proceeds to show gold chunkier than anything I've ever found
me too lol
"I dont know how well you can see this" while large nuggets blidn me lol
Looks like you had a great day out, gold is a bonus too, happy days
Your video’s have been SO helpful for me! I have a Whites goldmasterII and your setup video has taught me how to use my detector! When I ran into the Whites people at the gold and mineral show in N Idaho they basically told me to buy a newer detector... so thank you! Also I’m curious why you don’t use a pinpoint detector once you locate a target?
I have tried them and I don't think they saved me that much time and I already have to much to carry around.
Great video and nice looking gold good work mate 👊🏻🤠👍🏻
Super nice gold Gary, another great video. Thank you sir! 👍🏻
Great job .... thanks for the update
