Great first video, Westy. Beautiful location and to your credit you took the pump failure better than I would, so kudos to you. Grats on the gold. Subscribed. Thank you for sharing!!!

I do like the way you set your sprayers up to be adjustable and build your own grizzly bars.

Thanks I enjoyed this- what a awesome looking spot- beautiful. Those highbankers do make a bit of a mess though, they are banned in nsw unfortunately...keep up the good work

Congrats on your first vid, you did a great job with your filming and your editing was excellent, loved the split screen. Great choice of music, not too loud, relaxing 😊 Looking forward to seeing the vids you've done since this. Chewy is absolutely fantastic, love the WHGP's 🐕🦺💖. Yes, what happened with the pump IS reality. These things do happen. Just subbed, you're not all that far from where I am, being close to the border, might see you about some day. Well done and good luck with it all. Have a great day 🦘🇦🇺🦘

Great video mate and some really nice gold for the amount of dirt moved! I was looking at getting the 8 inch goldrat but after watching this I might go the 12! Cheers mate
@highcountryoutdoors49294 жыл бұрын
Thanks mate. I love the 12inch goldrat banker. The dream mat works so well, catching even the tiny flood gold we get so much here in North East Vic. Thanks again for watching!
@beanysgold9634 жыл бұрын
Yea I think I'm sold ill get the 8 inch for sure, I've had the 6 inch but need something a bit bigger! I'd like to have a go up your way some time I'm down in East Gippsland we have some nice chunky gold here if your ever down this way let me know!

Yeh the one that failed was just too small and was running to hard. Eventually died. Now have a bigger one and use heaps less fuel to run it.

Pump was buggered. I drained the oil and there was heaps of metal in it. Cheap chinese throw away jobby anyway. The low oil switch is a good trick for young players
