@@SkovianGoesOutdoors that’s ace, I’m still to build up my portfolio of locations in Scotland. It’s takes time though, how long have you been prospecting for?

[@Digita1Noob]

Great day on the river. S.O. Love!

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

It really was a grat day :) what part of S.O are you in?

[@Digita1Noob]

@SkovianGoesOutdoors I'm in Glendale. Used to own some property in Wolf Creek that was a mine in the 1800s. Panning is very relaxing. Good luck on your prospecting!

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

@Digita1Noob that's awesome! Heavy pans to you too :)

@B3A5TGAMING thank you for your support :)

[@connordunckel8544]

That’s an awesome spot, being from the northeast even your “bad” pans would be great ones for me.

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

@connordunckel8544 I was blown away when I first got to prospect on this river. There seemed to be gold everywhere haha. Hope you have some great pans soon man!

[@gregroth4696]

Great work. I panned the lower Umpqua. That was very fun. You’re doing better than I did. WTG

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

I've only ever worked the south umpqua, what's the gold like down there? I was finding mostly really fine flour gold with the occasional teardrop shaped flake every other pan or so

[@gregroth4696]

@@SkovianGoesOutdoors I worked the hard packed gravel bars. Fairly fine gold, no pickers.. Pretty but small and beautiful. A vacuum would have helped. Not as plentiful as your bedrock gold and no pickers like you had in today’s gold. I enjoy your channel. Thanks man!

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

Thanks man :) I wish you heavy pans on your next adventure

[@arrowheadlee]

Congratulations to you for your largest piece and to Nathan the winner as well.

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

Congrats man! I hope you hit 100 soon too :) I'll get that paydirt sent out today!

[@Leaveittobubbles]

I love your content. I’m only 9 and my da got be a detector for my birthday. My question is, can you detect at a river bank or will any “flower gold” make it hard? Thank you for inspiring me to be interested in finding gold and silver. Bubbles

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

A metal detector would defiantly work on the river bank :) while most detectors won't pick up the flour gold (the small glitter sized pieces) but they can pick up some of the larger flakes and chunky gold. It will also pick up Lead and Iron (good indicators you are in the right spot) I wish you the best of luck on your next adventure Bubbles, Heavy Pans

[@Leaveittobubbles]

@@SkovianGoesOutdoors thank you sir. Waiting for your next post.

[@kaceymarkus2558]

Man I'd love to do this. Gotta get some gear for this.

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

@kaceymarkus2558 It's an awesome hobby! All you really need is a pan and a digging tool. (Most people use shovels, but I like my crevicing tool ) A classifier isn't necessary, but it makes thing a little easier. Should be able to get everything you need for fairly cheep. You'll have to let me know how you do on your own trips :)

[@mohammednovalija]

Head Cam works for me.

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

I always have it stashed in my bag just in case. I like the way you film your videos and how they look, so I've always brought it as a back up :)

[@mohammednovalija]

@@SkovianGoesOutdoors If you lashed out and bought an old camera , you could run both head and chest cam and when you get home , you can maybe get more knowledge on which situation works best for each mode.

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

@mohammednovalija I think I got a buddy with a old go pro I could borrow. I just wish I could see the viewfinder to make sure I'm on target haha

[@mohammednovalija]

@@SkovianGoesOutdoors Yes I know. There is an app what turns your phone into a viewfinder , but then you may lose the freedom of having 2 hands available. It depends where you are going with your channel. Do you want to enjoy your day out , or do you want to spend ages filming and processing so others enjoy your dat out , possibly at your expense.

[@Highplainsprospectors]

You seem to pretty consistently hit a gram a day doing what you are doing. That is not a bad day for a hobby!

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

Thank you :) nothing beats a day on the river

[@AdamWeise-t2y]

Adam form FL. How won the 1 gram of gold

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

You'll have to wait for the Premiere :) Hope to see you there

[@fabianasensio1168]

so that's about $80 worth...how long did it take you to get that much?

[@SkovianGoesOutdoors]

@fabianasensio1168 I think I was only at the river for 3.5 - 4 hours that day

[@fabianasensio1168]

@@SkovianGoesOutdoors oh cool.

@fabianasensio1168 my trips are usually arround 4-5 hours. I would love to be able to do an overnight trip sometime

[@fabianasensio1168]

@@SkovianGoesOutdoors I'm wondering with some electronic help instead of hand panning, like a spinning wheel gold thing, if I can pull in like $150 per full day? Bedrock seems to be the thing to go to.
