Thanks Agate Angler. Im down here in Utah, sometimes I make trips to Wyoming and Montana. Thats a stunning river....I missed the location, what River did you find those beauties?
You have to watch your videos in slow motion, and when you do, you’ll know why I was yelling at you all throughout this video. Boy oh boy, so many treasures you missed. Lovely finds though. I got agate fever now.
Agreed! And even some beautiful stones that might not have been anything with a fancy name, but were SO pretty! I think they’d be awesome for the tumbler.
Like many of the previous comments, the fish rescue made me immediately know I'm in the right place. I appreciate that you're not just ripping, roaring, and greedily taking the all pretty things, like some of the other rock channels, but genuinely appreciated and showing care of your environment. Thank you, it's a peaceful joy to watch!
Many of these agates hide their true beauty within. When you've sawed them open, you'll see beautiful patterns and colors. I opened some that a friend of mine collected in Germany. You get curious and very excited, because it feels like opening a gift from Mother Nature. 👍Thumbs up for your fish rescue💪
Oh my gosh! A channel that focuses on finding gems (without being clickbait-y), has a dog, AND is a kind and compassionate person?? WOW! I'm a complete beginner in terms of rockhounding (planning on getting a tumbler for Christmas, looking for agate) and I could not find this channel at a better time!
I don't know much of anything about rocks, gemstones, crystals, etc- on a whim I just wanted to look up what people find, and I can find anything in my backyard. This is so incredibly wholesome and now I've subscribed. I also asked my dad about getting a rock tumbler, and he said he's got a friend trying to give one away so great coincidence!
You should hunt with agate dad. You guys are so much alike. I love how you both just love rocks not just the big ones looking to sell but appreciate the beauty of the rock
I definitely would love to hunt with Agate Dad at some point. I'm not terribly far from MN and lake superior so I'll probably have to take a little mini vacation to there at some point.
I know that feeling.... Light rain making the rock hunting a visual feast.... I love rock hounding in the drizzle and, besides the rain making the rocks easier to "see" I think cloud cover makes the colors more vivid...Bright sunhine tends to wash the colors out IMPO. Anyway great video... Your doing a great job. You are correct, you should stop second guessing yourself. Oh and dont worrying about coming off like a goob or dork... Anyone watching this video is a rock loving ground gazer and, what you're doing, is why they are watching!! Besides your adorable!! Happy Hunting!!
The beauty in rocks is amazing. I would never be able to find them as you are, but when polished, I can identify some of them. And rainy days can be quite beautiful and peaceful. Thank you too for saving the fish.
I’ve been starting to collect rocks, but i know nothing about them i just see one that looks cool and pick it up, so it hurt me every time you would spot one and i would see another one that looked very pretty but you never picked it up. I also want to expand and learn more about rocks and how to spot out the good ones
So love everything in this video! The rain, the frogs, the swallows.....the gorgeous and diverse variety of agates you found.....Kip's joyful energy....and the beautiful, wet stones along the Yellowstone. Just wow...thank you Alex! Such an oasis of wildlife and peacefulness and beauty. So happy for your finds, and I look forward to seeing what you do with them moving forward. Take care! LeeAnn
Wow, I'm just so flattered by your generous compliments! It is my pleasure to share this little beautiful corner of the world and I'm so glad that you enjoy it.
Just start by going where fill dirt is dumped or where tgeres a stream or a crop field? And just stand there or kneel? And just llok at the rocks. You want to train your eyes to look for a rock that stands put as.. different. And that's how you start...
It's always great to go hunting with you and the Kipster, two of my fave rockhounders! Thanks for the beautiful stones, scenery, and thank you for saving the little fishies
I've only watched this and the "what rockhounding dreams are made of" video but I love your channel already! You've got a great attitude, you seem respectful and appreciate of the environment you're in, and your dog looks so happy to be out there with you.
Around here i keep my eyes peeled for arrowheads, meteorites, nice chunks of quartz, fossils and minerals. Just outside my house i can find some lovely olivine. But when i travel it is anything that catches my eye. A friend of mine once flew me to a remote beach in Alaska that was agate city! Wish i could remember the name of that beach. I havent been out looking for a while so your vids are super therapeutic! :) Thanks for making them!
Spent many hours fossicking on the Avon River Victoria Australia. This makes me long to walk the gravel banks. As I'm 70 probably won't happen again. Vicariously living through your wanderings. Thanks for posting.
Maaan ,what a wonderful video! Your cheerful mood there rubs off on the viewers:) Awesome finds and so many. These blueish agates are so pretty and banding on that little one is awesome. Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks so much for your supportive comment! I do my best to share my true personality with you guys and it's starting to come through a little bit as time goes on. Thanks for watching!
Fond memories of stone hunting on Yellowstone gravel bars in the Laurel-Pompei's pillar area 50 years ago. My folks, four kids and a dog in an 18 foot Grumman canoe. I live in the east these days, only rarely get afloat.
Sounds like an absolute blast! I love going down to the Pompei's Pillar area. Sorry that you are unable to get out as much as you once did. I hope my videos help to being back some memories.
Such a beautiful spot for hunting and such beautiful little finds. The small ones do seem to compete with the big ones by showing amazing details. The colors in the petrified wood are amazing too! How fun for Kip to be able to run with complete joy! I love watching dogs do that. I'll be looking forward to seeing your tumbled rocks. Take care, I hope the class work and job are going well. Thank you for a great video!
Kip was an absolute nut that afternoon! I think he'd been a little bummed about all the rain and didn't think we'd go do anything so he had a lot of energy to spend. Thanks for watching and for your wonderful amazing support!
Love those waterline agates.....and don't you just love the river tumbled finish. Great video. Look forward to seeing a good Septarian hunt.....Please and thank you.
Thanks for saving the little fishies! It seems to be agate, jasper, petrified wood heaven there, it must be amazing to live nearby. Love the Kipster! I wonder if that could be fossilized coral? Wet dog is not a bad smell, hehe!
I was glad to save those little guys. They are in for a big crazy ride as the flows have nearly doubled since the time of that video. I was wondering about coral as I know it can be found here. I might share it on a facebook page for Rock ID and see if anyone knows.
@@AgateAngler What FB page is that? I could use help with some I.D. on rocks too! As for saving the fish, you remind me of "The Starthrower" story. A story very close to my heart
Your video made me so excited. It’s not because of the agate you found. My eyes keep moving with your lens. Every time I find that you missed a lot of complete agates and didn’t take them, you just picked up a small piece next to it. In front of the screen, I was more nervous than watching a football game, and yelled: "There is...the left side...then that...why didn't you see it?!" The feeling like the team I like was scored by the opponent Ball up.
Just found you.....subscribed now cause yeah....NOT missing out on going along for the ride! I'm 63 (the end of this month) been collecting all my life........I DO have a small business (will NOT plug that here but it has "Stones" in the name) but due to medical issues I can no longer do what I use to......I am sitting on a gold mine of collections and inventory but I REALLY miss working with the stones and going out collecting!!! All my boys are into it as well (some more than others)....no road trips for me or festivals/craft shows......not for awhile anyways..........LOVED watching you....I TRULY miss being around the young folk who appreciate natures gifts!! I'll be watching........ENJOY!!! OH..........that tumbled petrified wood is AWESOME! Do you know how much I pay for a pound of that (?)........GOODNESS..........and that was quality stuff!!!!! Never stop "rock hounding"!!!!!
@@AgateAngler No sweetie......I am in Pa.....Lancaster county.........been in business for about 28 years and a mixed media artist for 35........everything for me is on hold until I figure out my medical stuff..."Keeper of the Stones" here.....no brick and mortar shop, my late husband and I did festivals and craft shows across Pa.....eventually I will get back into sales and possibly custom orders again....for now.....just takin a break : )
my brother brought me 2 buckets of agates, from Lake Superior, I've yet to get them in the tumbler. some of them are just gorgeous. I'm going to do it this weekend. I wanted to make a necklace out of some of them.
New subscriber here. That was fun watching you find the agates and petrified wood. I kept thinking "ohhhh... he missed that jasper and that green whatever it was and...and...and". I would've had a few hundred pounds to haul home! 💎💎💎
@@AgateAngler Oh, it was fun regardless. lol I saw a lot of your polished stones in another video today and saw you don't pass over much. They were fantastic!
Just discovered your channel and am enjoying it very much! Didn't realize how much I like looking at rocks, especially after being polished. Look forward to your future videos. Best to you from Gainesville, GA!
Daryle! Thanks so much for watching, and I am so glad you enjoy the videos. I feel like it is human nature to be attracted to beautiful natural objects such as rocks.
I wish I could revisit camping places when I used to collect rocks as a child lol... Now even as an adult I'm just now learning and seeking to collect again #learning - great video and your dogs adorable!!
I feel so incredibly happy, that there are others just like me. There is nothing in this world more peaceful to me, than just watching the ground beneath me, scanning the areas for visible treasures. It's a long standing joke amongst my friends and family. Don't let Sara wander for rocks, and will disappear for 3 hours, unprepared so every possible place to put.... HUNDREDS of these GIFTS! Cheers!
I am so happy that people like you exist on this earth bro. There are rarely people who appreciate the nature truly. Also, pls wear a mask, I dont want one of my favorite youtubers to get Corona
I just found you today and I was pleasantly surprised. I have always enjoyed rock collecting. My husband and I took our vacations on K1200 LT BMW that it became impossible for me to collect my rocks but my wonderful husband would pack them in a box and mail home to FL. It was always nice coming home because my finds would be waiting for me.
I Love doing this!! watching you, I'm learning about my beloved' rocks', I live on the east coast in Mass.You have helped me identify some of my own little treasures,I thought were just pretty.. "You Rock" Love your channel, new sub, Blessings!
Old video, I realize, but my husband and I are just really new to rock collecting and tumbling. Not going to lie, we have a lot of granite and duds in our tumbler right now. But it’s been a fun four weeks - one to go with the polishing. Let me be a little more clear, I’ve ALWAYS picked up rocks all my life. The tumbling part is new. Too dang fun. ❤️
Can't believe what great colors you pass by. Makes me want to go there, definitely have the rock finder itch. I started taking rocks home from around 3 yrs old and after finding them in my drawers parents gave me a nice cabinet to store them in at age 6 lol. I'm now 68 and still have rocks in every room boxes bags tins... will need to go today.
I never knew that these stones are precious! We have lots of this kinds in our river. Traditionally, we go there to do wash our clothes and it has many precious rocks and agates too, I have seen lots but I don't have the knowledge. Now, I am learning and watching to gain knowledge about its differences. Thank you for sharing!
I spent many summers in the late 70s thru early 80s picking rocks in Montana. Loved it. We had a summer business in west Yellowstone and a summer house outside of Bozeman. From 9 years old thru 22 thats pretty much all i did. The Yellowstone river, Gallatin, Madison, cougar creek and hylight creek. Also fairy lake and the sheilds river. Man i loved it. My dad and brother would fish and i would pick.
Thanx Alex & Kip for another great vid. Your finds are absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to see some of them tumbled, especially the petrified wood. I find alot of smaller stuff, but even the little guys can out do the bigguns. Isn't our world just amazing 🥰✨👍
My kids were pissed when I told them it's time for bed and they couldn't finish watching all of your videos today, school, they can watch more tomorrow. They keep saying that they want to watch the rock videos with Kip. What amazing agates today. Not too many river beds with rocks in my area, so we are getting some waders so we can get to the rocks in the middle of the river. Thanks for sharing this, really inspiring me and my family to enjoy nature!
I just don’t know HOW you pass by all the pretty rocks! 😂🤣 Looks like you had an enjoyable time. P.S I’m getting better at not taking EVERYTHING I like
I suppose I've developed a bad case of tunnel vision Kim! Haha! There's just no way I could pick up all the pretty rocks I see out there. I guess you'll just have to come hunting out here at some point.
I would go crazy with all those pretty rocks to look thru! I would want to take them all! 😆 When my boys were young, I used to take them rock hunting. We’d come home n paint them. I still have some of those rocks. It was so much fun!
Hey, Thanks so much Cloe! I'm glad you enjoy and let me know what you think of the rest of the videos. They are slowly adding up after about six months of doing this. Do you rockhound as well?
Bonus points for rescuing those fishies 🐟 Alex! What a great guy you are👊😎 You find some amazing banded beauties dude. The blue and black ones tho are so tight! LOVE them! 💖 Another great adventure, thanks for taking us along as always. Cheers and HH🐾 Pause the screen at exactly 12:20... VERY TOP center of screen... You missed one☺ Sorry I had to haha!🤗
Gotta take care of those little guys that can't fend for themselves! Haha, kind of a fun thing to add to the video. Thanks for watching and DARN IT! I knew that someone would see one that I missed eventually. I always scan the area carefully before filming a find, but good catch! Have a great weekend!
@@AgateAngler haha! It just happened to me too. And it was a carnelian! "How did I miss that?"...I was thinking🤦Lol. I guess we can't win them all😄 Have a great weekend too🐾
I've always wanted to visit the Upper Missouri region of Montana and after your videos, I'm convinced of it. Perhaps next spring this Nebraskan will finally make it. Thank you Angler!
Hello 👋 I love going rock hunting. I used to have a tumbler as a hobby since we were in the Landscaping business we had all sizes of brown and white gravel bought by the ton trucks ❣️♥️
I just found your videos and I love agates too. I started hunting them about 30 years ago. I have not had as much luck in one day as you did in this video. I guess location is important. I live in the northwest of Washington state. I love a lot of rocks, minerals and gems. However, my health is not good and I rarely get out now. But I hope to get out on a beach at least one more time this summer. Happy hunting and thank you for sharing your finds for all to see.
Judy, I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. I've heard of agates in your area, but you are very right that some places are easier to hunt than others. I hope you do get out once more! Thank you for watching!
So glad I ran across you. I live in southern Utah and am a dye hard rock hound. I also make wire weaved jewelry from tumbled and cut stones. I appreciate a beautiful rock😉😊. I loved watching your pup Kipp. Does he dig any good rocks up for ya?😂
Thanks for watching everyone! Keep your eyes peeled for the Giveaway winners announcement. Should be sometime this weekend! Have a great weekend!
Ok my love From Brasil
Thank you! I'm going to check out your channel later today!
Thanks Agate Angler. Im down here in Utah, sometimes I make trips to Wyoming and Montana. Thats a stunning river....I missed the location, what River did you find those beauties?
You should look for gold in that area I saw a lot of it and you missed it by a little
I thought the stones were gorgeous but when u showed yourself... my heart beat 💗
You had me the minute you saved the fish!
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching. Glad I noticed those little guys, hopefully they made it.
😂😂😂
He missed one tho
Missed one though!
Honorary officer in the "Fish Police"...
My 7 year old gets jealous of all the agates you find and just said he wants to go where you are!
Haha! Well I can't blame him, we're lucky to find some pretty neat stuff on the Yellowstone. Perhaps a roadtrip is in order?
My childhood memory
You have to watch your videos in slow motion, and when you do, you’ll know why I was yelling at you all throughout this video. Boy oh boy, so many treasures you missed. Lovely finds though. I got agate fever now.
Can't take home the entire beach! ...or can you?🤔
Agreed! And even some beautiful stones that might not have been anything with a fancy name, but were SO pretty! I think they’d be awesome for the tumbler.
These littles tumble up really nicely!!!
came for the agates, stayed for the fish rescue
Thanks for coming along!
Like many of the previous comments, the fish rescue made me immediately know I'm in the right place. I appreciate that you're not just ripping, roaring, and greedily taking the all pretty things, like some of the other rock channels, but genuinely appreciated and showing care of your environment. Thank you, it's a peaceful joy to watch!
I really appreciate the genuine comment. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.
Many of these agates hide their true beauty within. When you've sawed them open, you'll see beautiful patterns and colors. I opened some that a friend of mine collected in Germany. You get curious and very excited, because it feels like opening a gift from Mother Nature.
👍Thumbs up for your fish rescue💪
Rock hound and outdoorsman here.I appreciated the fish saves!
Thanks for watching Robert! I was glad that I was able to save the fish.
Oh my gosh! A channel that focuses on finding gems (without being clickbait-y), has a dog, AND is a kind and compassionate person?? WOW! I'm a complete beginner in terms of rockhounding (planning on getting a tumbler for Christmas, looking for agate) and I could not find this channel at a better time!
You want bands. Come to the Cheyenne river in South Dakota. Most expensive agates in the world. Colors you've never seen in an agate. Fairburn agates.
Ted! It is on my list!
Yep, while out fossil hunting I never pass up a rock pile. I've found Fairburn agates as far south and west as Harrison, Nebraska.
No way. Iris agate are by far the most expensive agate
I don't know much of anything about rocks, gemstones, crystals, etc- on a whim I just wanted to look up what people find, and I can find anything in my backyard. This is so incredibly wholesome and now I've subscribed.
I also asked my dad about getting a rock tumbler, and he said he's got a friend trying to give one away so great coincidence!

I still cant get over how much petrified wood you find there, one of these days I need to get over there, Another awsome video Thank You Alex & Kip
There is so much of it on the Yellowstone. Thanks for watching Rob!

Good for you! It's not about finding certain particular rocks (At least not for me), but rather focus on what brings you enjoyment.
I was the same way! What about that green one! And that red one! Lol....I would have just taken a shovel😊
Deborah Danhauer yes! I would have done the same and just take a shovel and a big backpack 😂👍🏻
So love everything in this video!

Ah yes! I've heard of those!
Very funny!!🤣
I honestly wish I could do this!! I would probably spend the whole day just looking for treasure!
It is addicting for sure!

Kip is hard to not like....though he is a bit of a wild boy. Thanks so much for watching and commenting on the video.
We are from Billings and live near senior high school! So happy to support a local TH-camr!!! We also love rock hunting. I have so many agates.
"If we find anything cool"?! I want ALL of those rocks!😂

I love looking for rocks in a light rain! The colors are brilliant then!
I know! The rain is super helpful for rockhounding!
I love your attitude and vibe!! It makes me so happy to just watch how happy you are 😊 keep doing what you’re doing!
The best find was finding this cutie on his rock channel 🥺👉🏻👈🏻 I absolutely love rocks probably because my dad is a jeweller 💎🥰
No idea how you can easily tell them apart, but I love hunting rocks and sorts...thanks for the video
Just practice makes perfect. Thanks for watching!
Quite enjoyed this. Walking near a river in the rain can be magical
I completely agree! Thanks for watching!
Seeing all the non-agate rocks that would have been in my bucket :) great finds for you, keep on inspiring
Thanks Maverick! Appreciate your support.
You are lucky, you live in the most beautiful country in de world. Beautiful stones and a nice video. Greetings from the Netherlands.
Thanks for watching from so far away! So glad you enjoyed the video!
Love your enthusiasm and great rock finds, enjoy your identifying the different rocks!
Thank you! I'm so glad you enjoyed!
Great finds! Thanks for taking us along on your adventure! Happy hounding!

Yes Montana is an amazing place. I would love to move back there immediately.
Wow! You're selected few stones, but so many precious stones there with you.
Oh so cool and the best day are the days that drizzle 🌧

Don't let Sara wander for rocks, and will disappear for 3 hours, unprepared so every possible place to put.... HUNDREDS of these GIFTS!
Cheers!
There are MANY just like you! I couldn't agree more.
I am so happy that people like you exist on this earth bro. There are rarely people who appreciate the nature truly. Also, pls wear a mask, I dont want one of my favorite youtubers to get Corona
Man I loved your video. I have become a subscriber. Awesome and envious. Great job and I totally loved your pup.
Welcome aboard Aurora! Thanks for watching. I'll give Kip a pat for you.
I just love your videos. They are so relaxing and fun to watch.
I like it how you get less shy with every video.Excellent work,keep it up
I try. It definitely takes practice. Crazy to go back and watch the very first video. It's only been six months, but a lot has changed.
@@AgateAngler yeah man i'm proud of you
So I’m new to the rock and went up to the mountains and she was rite there with me . We collected a bunch of nice rocks . Hear video thank you
Love love love your videos and learning so much from them. Greetings from Ireland.
Wow, these videos are so much fun! Keep up the lovely work
Thank you! Will do! Thanks for watching.
I live in Minnesota and I never knew there was white/clear agates! I’ve only found blue and red ones!
Oh there are so many sorts of agates out there to find! Just do a little google search and prepare to have your mind blown.
I just found you today and I was pleasantly surprised. I have always enjoyed rock collecting. My husband and I took our vacations on K1200 LT BMW that it became impossible for me to collect my rocks but my wonderful husband would pack them in a box and mail home to FL. It was always nice coming home because my finds would be waiting for me.
That is awesome! Definitely hard to carry a ton of rocks home on what sounds like a motorcycle. Glad you can get out to go rockhounding though!
I Love doing this!! watching you, I'm learning about my beloved' rocks', I live on the east coast in Mass.You have helped me identify some of my own little treasures,I thought were just pretty.. "You Rock" Love your channel, new sub, Blessings!
Some of those blues were lighted from within! Bright
Pretty amazing stones! Thanks so much for watching Andrea. Check out my channel if you want to see many many more agates.
I love rock hunting, thanks for letting us come with you! 🤗
Thanks for coming along!
Watching you for the first time and now I fell in love... with rocks. 😉❤
Great Video.You make it very interesting.You tell what they are.You really know your stuff.I love this new hobby.You never know what you can find.
Old video, I realize, but my husband and I are just really new to rock collecting and tumbling. Not going to lie, we have a lot of granite and duds in our tumbler right now. But it’s been a fun four weeks - one to go with the polishing. Let me be a little more clear, I’ve ALWAYS picked up rocks all my life. The tumbling part is new. Too dang fun. ❤️
Can't believe what great colors you pass by. Makes me want to go there, definitely have the rock finder itch. I started taking rocks home from around 3 yrs old and after finding them in my drawers parents gave me a nice cabinet to store them in at age 6 lol. I'm now 68 and still have rocks in every room boxes bags tins... will need to go today.
You totally should. Montana is the treasure state after all! Thanks for watching and commenting, it really helps my channel out.
I never knew that these stones are precious! We have lots of this kinds in our river. Traditionally, we go there to do wash our clothes and it has many precious rocks and agates too, I have seen lots but I don't have the knowledge.
Now, I am learning and watching to gain knowledge about its differences. Thank you for sharing!
I spent many summers in the late 70s thru early 80s picking rocks in Montana. Loved it. We had a summer business in west Yellowstone and a summer house outside of Bozeman. From 9 years old thru 22 thats pretty much all i did.
The Yellowstone river, Gallatin, Madison, cougar creek and hylight creek. Also fairy lake and the sheilds river. Man i loved it. My dad and brother would fish and i would pick.
Very soothing and learning experience, thank you for making it possible
Thanks for tagging along!
I love that you saved the fish. #Respect
Thanks again for taking us with you
My pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Thanx Alex & Kip for another great vid. Your finds are absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to see some of them tumbled, especially the petrified wood. I find alot of smaller stuff, but even the little guys can out do the bigguns. Isn't our world just amazing 🥰✨👍
It sure is Sheree! Thanks for watching!
My kids were pissed when I told them it's time for bed and they couldn't finish watching all of your videos today, school, they can watch more tomorrow. They keep saying that they want to watch the rock videos with Kip. What amazing agates today. Not too many river beds with rocks in my area, so we are getting some waders so we can get to the rocks in the middle of the river. Thanks for sharing this, really inspiring me and my family to enjoy nature!
Great way to spend a day... next to the water looking for pretty rocks
So many beautiful rocks and crystals there ❤️
I just don’t know HOW you pass by all the pretty rocks! 😂🤣 Looks like you had an enjoyable time.
P.S I’m getting better at not taking EVERYTHING I like
I suppose I've developed a bad case of tunnel vision Kim! Haha! There's just no way I could pick up all the pretty rocks I see out there. I guess you'll just have to come hunting out here at some point.
I thought the exact same thing, all these rocks are worth taking, they are all so beautiful !!
I would be the same
My kids love collecting rocks and pretty stones, but we don't know what we are looking at or collecting.
I completely agree
Gorgeous agates and other gems, I love this stuff! Thanks for sharing.😊
Nice rainy day finds! I look forward to how they turn out in the tumbler. Kelp the videos coming.
Thanks! Will do!
I love the way you saved tho fish 🐟 and kipp is so 😍
I find these so relaxing to watch. I would love to get out and rock hound, but am old and crippled up pretty good...
This brought back so many awesome memories from when I was little and lived in Tennessee. Hope to see more soon!
So glad you enjoyed it! There will be plenty more to come!
I would go crazy with all those pretty rocks to look thru! I would want to take them all! 😆 When my boys were young, I used to take them rock hunting. We’d come home n paint them. I still have some of those rocks. It was so much fun!
Thank you for saving the fish 🐟💗🙏🙏
What a sweet video 😭 I got just as excited every time you found one. You are so fun to watch, can't wait to check out your other videos.
Hey, Thanks so much Cloe! I'm glad you enjoy and let me know what you think of the rest of the videos. They are slowly adding up after about six months of doing this. Do you rockhound as well?
Lol you reminded me of the crystal collector when you said whaat?!
Haha! I'm beginning to get less shy with my videos, so my true personality is shining through.
That’s so funny! We love the crystal collector!
🤣 I found this channel through Bryan!
Bonus points for rescuing those fishies 🐟 Alex! What a great guy you are👊😎
You find some amazing banded beauties dude. The blue and black ones tho are so tight! LOVE them! 💖 Another great adventure, thanks for taking us along as always. Cheers and HH🐾
Pause the screen at exactly 12:20... VERY TOP center of screen... You missed one☺ Sorry I had to haha!🤗
Gotta take care of those little guys that can't fend for themselves! Haha, kind of a fun thing to add to the video. Thanks for watching and DARN IT! I knew that someone would see one that I missed eventually. I always scan the area carefully before filming a find, but good catch! Have a great weekend!
@@AgateAngler haha! It just happened to me too. And it was a carnelian! "How did I miss that?"...I was thinking🤦Lol. I guess we can't win them all😄 Have a great weekend too🐾
Wow Amazing different types of stones in your home.
Hats off to you for rescuing those poor stranded fish
Thanks for watching Mary-Anne! I'm glad I was there to rescue those little guys!
I've always wanted to visit the Upper Missouri region of Montana and after your videos, I'm convinced of it. Perhaps next spring this Nebraskan will finally make it. Thank you Angler!
I hope you are able to make it!
Hello 👋 I love going rock hunting. I used to have a tumbler as a hobby since we were in the Landscaping business we had all sizes of brown and white gravel bought by the ton trucks ❣️♥️
I just found your videos and I love agates too. I started hunting them about 30 years ago. I have not had as much luck in one day as you did in this video. I guess location is important. I live in the northwest of Washington state. I love a lot of rocks, minerals and gems. However, my health is not good and I rarely get out now. But I hope to get out on a beach at least one more time this summer. Happy hunting and thank you for sharing your finds for all to see.
Judy, I'm so glad you enjoy the videos. I've heard of agates in your area, but you are very right that some places are easier to hunt than others. I hope you do get out once more! Thank you for watching!
So glad I ran across you. I live in southern Utah and am a dye hard rock hound. I also make wire weaved jewelry from tumbled and cut stones. I appreciate a beautiful rock😉😊. I loved watching your pup Kipp. Does he dig any good rocks up for ya?😂
