Moving to California in a month. Seems fun even if you don't find gold!

J.C. cleaned up on those clean-outs. Justin always seems to find at least one good picker. You remain as the undisputed master of the recreational gold prospecting video. Thanks for another killer video.

[@californiamotherlodeprospect]

You are always a big inspiration Tim with your kind words, I appreciate it brother!

Damnit Jerry, you make me want to go out with you one time! This old combat vet thanks you for sparking the inner child again!!

Man I wish I would’ve know more about gold panning and prospecting while I was stationed out in California a few years ago. I’m back in Oklahoma now and I’m wanting to head to Colorado and California to try it out.

[@coloradoprospecting1034]

Heck yeah I want to see more videos of that place

[@parkerrowe4687]

Great video..thanks for taking me along I dream of helicoptoring a 8 inch dredge into that spot and spending a couple of weeks working up river......yup,,that would be nice

[@californiamotherlodeprospect]

Yes sir!!

[@cooperventures1984]

Hey Jerry it's Nick with Cooper Ventures just wondering when you guys are going out again and if I can tag along I go on a lot of trips alone solo because I don't know a lot of people into this stuff and just looking for some more people doing the same thing I guess keep it up you guys are awesome

[@bedrockbennett1827]

Looks like a good spot I almost made it that far didn't quite make it that day..... definitely will..... Thanks for the video

[@ronaldblack7222]

Say hey Brother, Love your show ! I've made my living on that river since 1978. I kind of giggle cause I have seen all of the spots that you go to. And no I won't say where they are. I found one that redeposits with every good storm. It's on that river too. You would drool over some of the pans that I get and they are consistent not like your good ones and then you're really funky ones this place is always consistent. We use to dredge that river with an eight inch and always did very well. I'm too old now too even go play, so I just wanted thanks ! Watching you kinda helps that old gold Jones.

[@californiamotherlodeprospect]

I really appreciate the support Ronald! Any time you wanna throw some location tips my way I'm all ears!

[@GrotyGold]

Awesome video Jerry. Sweet gold you guy's cleaned up. Liking the milk jug scoop idea, looks like it works really well. Cheers for sharing, happy hunting Alicia & Steve

[@MrWingo]

Just found your channel. Your videos are awesome. What's really blowing my mind is seeing JC in your videos. A few years back his brother and I were hanging out with him in Kaneohe and he was telling me how he was going to do this. Somehow I just knew he would make it happen. Just seeing him in these videos inspires me to find my way out there and make it happen as well. YOU'RE THE MAN JC!!! Someday I hope to get out of Kaneohe and pan for gold with you in Northern California.
