You both did well this trip. You got a nice little patch that no doubt there'll be more for sure.

[@Smithsgold]

there's more there but it's getting close to being worked out or just a few little ones left

[@GrooberNedJardine]

What a classic !!!! , It was worth watching just to see Gary dig up his gold the second time around Jeff . I guess we shouldn't be Smug about it , i reckon he must have been really pissed about that lol , Anyway , you guys killed it once again ,👍👍 great idea getting rid of the log , and doing some gardening , it sure payed off . A great day for sure Buddy . 👌 Cheers Ned ✌

[@Smithsgold]

Thanks Ned best of luck on your next hunt !!!! heck one day I might even come visit as I spent some time this weekend with one of your countrymen and he paints a great picture of Australia !!!!!

[@GrooberNedJardine]

@@Smithsgold Thanks Jeff , Well you would be welcome here , No worries !!! Ahh it's not a bad place to live i suppose , i have to say that because i don't know any different lol 🤣 But my best long time Buddy and Drummer in my Band went to live in California and then to Texas for about 2 years , so i used to call him often over there , he would tell me a lot about life over there , and the things he would tell me were Very interesting to say the least . I don't know whether i could handle the flight now , i think all up it took him 32 hours on various planes with stop over in Hawaii to get to Cali then to Texas . It's a long way , . Who knows , if i ever win the lottery i might just visit . Cheers Ned . ✌

[@CodysGarage]

How does the old whites TDI compare to the SDC?

[@TwoToes]

I would say they are pretty close, but the SDC reads off the side of the loop (whites didn't) and folds up so you can put in the backpack. Hands free hiking is the best part!.

[@Smithsgold]

yep what Gary said !!!!!! plus it's water proof

[@oak699]

When I saw with cutting that tree, I thought you were going to BBQ a bear or something 😁.

[@Smithsgold]

there are a few right around there we have seen them !!!!

[@cisummar]

Nice lumber work Jeff, did Gary help you move those big logs ? or was he still looking for gold while... Are Hydraulic pits claimed? or can anyone look for gold on them?? Wow, that's a nice chunky nugget Jeff. Right on, end of day gold for you, that deserves an ice-cream, well almost end of gold, you should have stopped taping. Funny, what did Gary do shake his bottle & the top come off? Great vid. I was hoping to make it this Sat. but my health hasn't been good lately, hopefully I can make it to see the great miners. Serg

[@Smithsgold]

No I did it all myself he was busy finding Gold in the road. Yep one shake and it went over his back I guess the lid wasn't on very good. Hope your feeling good enough to make the Nugget Hunt !!!!

[@Smithsgold]

some are claimed and some are open there are thousands of acres of them out there hope that helped

[@Smithsgold]

You got that right!

[@johnsaucerhunter]

Geez Jeff... this may be one of those few episodes where the two of you were pretty evenly matched both gold and weight wise. It's a shame that Gary lost that one last piece he was hunting for. Surely there's more to the story of how Gary lost the gold in the first place (one would think). So does that mean by a strange chance of fate that you also retained the "last Gold award"? BTW... Hope Gary can knock that dent on his bumper back out (which again... I'm sure thats another story of how it got there)>

[@Smithsgold]

One Nugget still lost in the yard and the bumper is back to looking good it popped out with a little help I might have to go try and find that nugget it's in the shade Might make a good video !!!!! LOL

Y'all need to stop showing videos of road finds. I see in the near future, every road in the motherlode is gonna be dug up!!! 😂 I love your guy's videos. Quick question though. I'm new to prospecting, and want to eventually invest in a metal detector. I have one concern though. I have a screw in my wrist. Supposedly titanium. Would that set of the detector. Not worried about false targets per say, but when it comes to pin point it the way you guys do half in the hand, half in the scoop..any and all. Thanks!

Couple weeks ago I was given a new visa lessons lessons How to pan and gold. A really good spot I got him some dirt I knew it had three for Penny Weight But yet they got nothing beginners.I did a pan at the beginning of it for nice nuggets. Gold fever instantly . I had my bucket that I’ve been working on for a few days you know you shake it down throw off the top gallon of half bucket and I told him it was mine don’t mess with it . Well I turned around had my bucket targets dumped in the screen a quarter inch screen turn think it oh shit He looks in a quarter inch green for second I don’t know like it’s in there dumb shit and he standing 3 feet of mud the only spot around Oh no I had a coronary but worse than that he didn’t have a pan under the fucking screen. And walking around in it get that back my God I didn’t say a word next year when we have more water I’ll dig 3ounces to gold out of their. Now that’s funny I didn’t say a word. Gary’s where are the few people and actually listen to what is detectors saying. One of the few I respect on KZbin I’ve been in Gary’s store several times
