Awsome day out in the river. And some color too. Great stuff thanks for sharing

[@kiheirc3195]

How interesting thank you for the video. I took my little Outboardrd way up the south fork pass Salmon Falls for the first time this year since the water was so high really got me thinking best of luck.

This video keeps me motivated to not give up prospecting. I go out to South Fork as much as I can as I am a Orangevale resident.

Nice i live in sac. The weekend before that video i found 4 nice pickers just a little above that area. But it was a small spot and i worked it pretty good so it was time to find more spots. Im hitting the bear river this sunday. Going to go check above the campground area. I usually work the gravel bar by the parking lot. But i know there's gotta be some bigger bits hiding up river.

Nice test pans. Busted knuckles... a good sign of getting at it! Ha! Thanks for the video!

Cool vid bro, theres some wicked flood gold down around salmon falls up river. I picked a nice nugget out up by the ravine last season to. Fun river for sure 🤘🏼 gonna sub up now peace

[@ProspectorRalph]

That's awesome. Im still waiting to find a nugget. Not gonna call it a nug till it weighs more then a gram. Ive gotten into a few small pickers. But that's what keeps us coming back for more of that shiny 💪😎

Thanks for the sub, hit ya back. And thanks for taking me along on the American. You done good at the last spot. All that bedrock looks so amazing. Nothing like what we have here. And I hear ya on the bleeding knuckles.

[@ProspectorRalph]

Gotta fight that bedrock to get her to let go of some of that gold for sure. Even if you win the hands well surely look like you lost the battle lol

Nice. I have spent my 6 mo prospecting journey mostly on the north fork. I've been eyeing spots all over via Google maps. Lots to explore.

Just subscribed. Nice vid and commentary, I’ll be heading up that way in the next month or so, up near salmon falls 🤟

[@ProspectorRalph]

Thanks bro. Been panning off and on for years now. Trying to get more serious and find like minded people to start doing vids to upload on youtube. Hit me up any time 😎💪
