Always learn something interesting watching your videos. 'Reading the river" is also a fundamental of fly fishing. I look forward to your following clips on how to 'read the river" for gold discovery. You show nicely how "old school" work can reveal impressive results, even in heavily worked areas!! THANK YOU!!

I look forward to more videos on reading the river. Most of us have average detectors like a AT gold and they do not pick up any small gold. So its down to hunting for likely spots and panning. Our gold is so fine, a 1 gram day is a great day, so we live through your adventures. Keep em coming.

Good morning love your videos. Just began prospecting a while back. Have you ever tried a gold claw pan if so what are your thoughts on it? Thanks for videos I learn something new every time. You are a great teacher

[@TwoToes]

Yes I have, and I don't like them. The only thing that has improved in panning in the last 60 years is putting some riffles in the pan. I guess when you get old you get stuck in your ways. lol

Thanks for the reply and keep cranking out the videos

[@ScottBalbas]

Quick question: what is the least expensive metal detector that is still good for finding small flakes and such? Most of the gold that I've found up to now, is tiny!!

[@robertg9514]

Great information as usual Gary! Is it possible for you to do a video about reading a small creek (really small, able to cross most places in the fall without getting wet) in one of your videos? I had a claim on and off for over 30 years, and very seldom could I find flood gold, but 10 grain on up to 5 penny weight nuggets were common. Mind you, over 30 years it became harder and harder to find any gold, but the first 5 years was a sniper’s paradise. I guess my point is educating people not to overlook those small creeks.
