Gary, I'm a new prospector from Australia and just want to let you know, your videos are hands down the best videos on you tube, I have watched them all. keep them coming mate!!
Gary, I have a degree in geology and my professors did not have the have the knowledge you have to share. Thank you so much for passing this information along. Do not be concerned with the length of you your videos, every minute counts.
I always say better to do it than to read it in a book.
I could watch 3+ hours straight of you doing this NP. I learn something every time! Thank You...
perfect vid. don't worry about the length, we need this content. thanks!
Always awesome, I’d watch every minute even they were hours long!
Great video! It's never to long when you're listening to a great teacher.
You are the most knowledgeable gold prospector on TH-cam. Love your videos! I have learned so much from you! Thank you!
Great lessons Gary I enjoy your long videos seems like you give plenty information and usually a great adventure two thumbs up thanks
That was some good gold Gary! Those were some bread and butter tips about scratching crevices! It was so kool to meet you at Oregon creek and hear all your great stories! Thanks for all the great tips and much aloha!!
Good to hear from you, hope you had a great summer!
I keep forgetting that rocks are heavy. Thanks for sharing - I cant wait to get over there 👊
Only the heavy ones are heavy
Two Toes your sense of humour keep you young!
Thanks a million for sharing your knowledge and life experience it's worth more than a million as you are teaching the next generation of gold miners!
Long live your wisdom and need to share it
There even heavier when they bounce off your head !!!! I know this from experience !!!! Looking forward to mining with you and you can teach me the finger snap !!!!
@@TwoToes fact
@@Smithsgold lol you Gota watch out for the "rock fishermen "
I have been prospecting my local area lately, and I am almost overwhelmed with so many spots that look good to me that I almost don't know where to start. This video will hopefully help me to better look for where to start concentrating, because right now I'm all over the place and I feel I end up wasting a lot of time. Thanks, and great video as always!
Who cares about the length of your video. It's all the knowledge I'm here for and you've got a lot of that to share. I've learned so much from you and truly appreciate you sharing it
This is one of my favorite videos of all time. This really helped me out in the field to pinpoint better areas to search, when at first glance they ALL look good. Thanks Gary!
Don't ever think your videos are too long. Every minute is straight knowledge. I always look forward to seeing your notifications in my feeds. Have you ever thought about setting up classes? I'm local and would take some vacation time from work to attend such a class.
I like the long videos and the knowledge you put out there for us.
Hi Gary, sorry I called you Jeff in another comment. LOL What I really thank you for is taking the time to give out all of your hard earned knowledge. If it were me after taking all of the time and energy, hiking, gas, etc., I wouldn't waste the time with all of this explaining as I would want to get every minute out of the day looking for gold. Granted, I do explain myself thoroughly when doing plumbing repairs to any of my interested clients to help them do their own next time. But I am getting paid and didn't have to go through what you do each trip.Thank you so much!
Aloha, Paul
thanks for posting Gary you are the master. I learned three new methods in this video.
Great video Gary, thank you for sharing your years of experience. I would also like to see how you move large boulders and then clean underneath them.
Like your hint about reflecting sunlight into a dark space!
Just finished your video. Quite informative as usual. Thank you for teaching me everything I know. I'm just not in a good location. It's only a few miles from my home, and just wanted to experience it before I made a 2 hour trip. I was finding everything you show, iron, lead, red sand , black sand, everything but what I wanted to find. So thanks to you, i feel, i was in a decent spot. I only have one lung, so it's harder for me to hike with a whole lot. I carry my 50 inch sluice on my back. Long handled shovel in one hand, and a bucket with all my tools in the other. And after hiking a couple miles, I'm ready to start in the first place that looks half decent. I think I'm going to invest in a small cheap rubber raft, that way most of my hiking will be one way.
Great lesson Gary as always. Thanks for taking the time to teach the rest of us.
Even though I have been prospecting for a very long time, I always learn something new from your videos. I only wish we had so much water to work with. It looks to me as though the gold replenishes it self there much more than it does here in AZ. It must be gold working it’s way down from the ancient river channels up on the hill above!
I seek out the creeks that are fed by the old channels.
I would love to see you move a couple of the larger boulders and see if you can locate some big nuggets!
Gary, these video should be 5 times longer, with the results of 20 pans or so. The more I see, the harder I want to get down on it!! 👹👍
Another great video Gary , very informative as usual , if anything we need instilled in our memories it's look for the trap ,gold needs something to get caught in ,and it can't sink past bedrock , thanks for sharing your knowledge, cheers.
Gary I love all the videos I've learned so much from you in the past 2 years. 3 years ago I got all my crevicing tools from you and I've changed so many things when I'm down on the river looking for gold. The amount of gold I have been getting has slowly gone up from changing my techniques and tools all thanks to you! I left a voicemail last week on your work phone number listed on your website I'm hoping to chat with you about the TDI detector. I'm looking at buying the TDI SL special prospecting detector. The only thing I want to do is pick up the 4 x 9 loop just for helping with crevicing rather than the one that comes with it which is a little bit bigger. I know that you run the Jimmy TDI loop, The Miner John's 8 x 12 comes stock on the new TDI but I like the 5 x 9 for trying to pick up the smaller nuggets in crevices. As soon as I get the new detector I'm going to be up in the gold country in the next 2 weeks or so. Thank you for the great videos, it doesnt bother me if they were 2 hours long!
My answering machine is slowly dying, I can't make out the recordings anymore. When the weather gets bad and things slow down, I will replace the whole setup - like I was going to last winter. lol I'm old so I have a excuse - I keep forgetting.
You can pick up very small gold with the stock loop but, the smaller loop will allow you to get in between the rock and allows you to detect more areas.
Your videos are very enjoying. Please keep them coming. I’ve learned a lot from them.
Well done Gary, just what I needed. Thank you
Thanks Gary for your dedication to finding gold. Waitng for the Klamath water level to go down. Joined the New 49'ers. Ready to get in the water using a floating battery operated hookah and snipe the deep parts the old timers could not get to. Happy prospecting Gary.
An excellent teach-in with great content for beginners. Me? I'd snuff up every little piece because given time, it all adds up and with the price of gold per gram these days, given time you will have a nice little earner and there's no doubt about that. I've been gold sniping 20 years since I was a kid, and every stash of nuggets, pickers and smalls are safely laid into my bank's deposit box. Now my 10 yr old daughter has her own. Many thanks Two Toes - you're a star!
Thank you Gary for a most informative video. All the best from Australia.
Thank you!!!! Your videos are interesting, entertaining, and inspiring. I live in Alaska and just started prospecting this summer. Haven’t found anything yet but keep running to the rivers every chance I get before they freeze, especially after your videos.
Brilliant as always. Hey GArY please could you consider doing one on how to find gold in smaller rivers?? Here in UK (and no doubt parts of U.S.) our gold bearing locations are often on very small rivers or even streams. They are maybe between 1/10 to 1/5 the width of your giant creeks! - and it's not generally nugget territory for sure - we tend to find tiny flakes, and on a good day a picker or too. I know the principles are the same, but I'm guessing, as always - you will have tips that are unique to the situation. Big Thanks.
Its on the list, that will be a good late fall video, when there is to much water in the larger creeks.
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I'm just getting into panning and I've really found your videos to be very helpful. Just bought one of those long crevase spoons from Pioneer Mining in Auburn and I can't wait to try it out!
Great video, you do such a great job with your commentary that I don't notice the time. Most informative videos out there on this subject, thank you for your time and effort!
I know this is 5 years old, but this is my favorite channel
You an me, we got very different ideas of "large"! I would love to find gold that size on the creek's I work. Nice vid mate, perfect length, well informed commentary all anyone could ask for really.
Holy Mackarel Gary you are Teaching Us a Successful System, Thank You Very Much, You are a Great Person!!! Again, Thanks For Share!!!🤙
I like your shinny tool comment, I have always carried an inspection mirror with me, cause the big fire ball in the sky throws out a whole lot more light than any flashlight does. 😃 Thanks for the video!
Thanks for the educational content! Don't worry about video length, if its quality stuff (which your vids always are) we want to see it!
Dear Sir, thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with us all. I did my first crevicing last Summer, and now thanks to you, I am excited to go back and apply some of what you have taught me. Best.
Gary, you did a FANTASTIC job of demonstrating the process. Please do not think that your videos are too long.
You are the ONE prospector that can make a video too long!!!
You explanations are so beneficial to me and prospectors throughout our industry.
Your Knowledge through the years of Experience .....they just cannot teach that in ANY School !!!
The other prospectors just do NOT have your experience and to be honest your Passion!!
More instructional videos with your passion and wealth of knowledge would be a sellable commodity!!
I as well as the 6 buddies I have agree we would gladly pay cash money to have access to your Prized Instruction !!!
The Bonus to us is your unbridled Passion that is infectious. America NEEDS to be exposed to the Passion you exude.
Thank You, Gary.
You ARE, " The Gold Man!!!!"
Thanks!
I want to do that so bad! Here in Michigan the bedrock is 13,000 feet deep. Do you sell any longer crevicing tools? Another great video. You have a wonderful day!
another brilliant and informative lesson on what a pro like you does to find gold. thank you :)
Gary, I have been watching your videos for a couple years now and I love what your sharing with us, keep up the good work! Note I notice that you don't use knee pads, please take care of your knees as I live vicariously through you, someday I hope to get up and work where you're at.
Love the Video Gary, like the rest have said, never to long a video ..... been watching and learning for years from you and this is one of the best ..... hugs to all from the mighty Rouge River and valley of S.Oregon ... Historic Gold Hill mining district⛏⛏🤠
Great video! Thanks for sharing your day. Great information.
Your knowledge and experience really shines through and translates very well. I have learned much already. I am in the desert and have still been fairly successful in applying the "Gold Science" you teach. I wonder if you might possibly have any info or techniques that might be specific to working "dry Washes" and other desert geology?
Nice gold. Thank you, very educational.
30 mins and under is good for vids. Even if longer it keeps us entertained. Dont let any youtubers say vids are too long because sometimes the short vids keeps you searching too much and it's good to have some time spent watching rather then looking.
Excellent video, well edited, didnt even realize it was long. I could watch this all day!
Nice video, i've been mining for 9 years and I got great information on this one , Thank you.
great information you can never learn enough from old two toes
I just don't get how you can say with a straight face that your videos are too long. You are so naturally well suited to keep any serious gold seekers attention. I'm a relative newbie to this gold digging, panning and all and I KEEP re-watching as many of your videos as I can find the time for.
I've had plenty of time lately as I'm recovering from a Total Rotator Cuff Repair Surgery.
Please don't worry so much about the length of your videos. They are chuck full of valuable information that most of the time I am still wanting at the end...That is in no way or any fashion a complaint.
Your knowledge is amazing and the more I learn from you the more I crave for more.
Thanks for not only your Service but the information you so freely impart to the rest of us with a sincere and recognizable passion.
Thanks again,
Idaho Guy with the FEVER...LOL
PS. I made a small order last year and am very happy with ALL the Items you sent me. Good Quality STUFF... I was slightly surprised at how quickly they arrived as well. Once the Surgeon gives my release & I'm back to work I'll make another order of your goodies. Thanks.
LOL Public School....... Great teacher, Thank you Gary!
The thing I really like is I think this is the first video of its type where the presenter didn't talk about gold being deposited by low pressure zones created by obstructions.
Loved the video, watched it from beginning to end, great information that I'll use on my next trip upshitz creek thank you
Another great vid, sir! Winter is definitely coming here in Alaska. When you said "Why this area" I think of those huge flakes you've pulled out of that place over the years!
Gary from another Gary thanks I have learned more from your videos than I have anywhere else please continue the good work and teaching that you are doing,
There is no such thing as a ridiculously long video of you crevicing! I love watching you doing something I can just dream about. Keep 'em coming :)
have you watched my last video with Gary ? Check it out I'm sure you will enjoy it ..
Your videos are never to long! Keep the videos coming, great teaching and happy New year Gary!
Always look forward to new videos and this one is awesome. Loved it.
I like when you say : look at what WE found...
Please just send me my part. Ha !
Nice video.
I just started to pan this year. Little amount of crevices where I am panning.
Great knowledgeable video and not too long !! You keep it real and I never know what I'm going to learn!! Awesome thank you for pointing out such cool facts about gold reaction in rivers..and types of rocks .. Thank u. Hope to share a day in the future!..
Great Video Gary !! I was hoping to see you back at that spot to metal detect those crevices ! Thanks for your sharing .
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, much appreciated. This video was very informative and painted a good picture of a rivers deposits . Semper Fi.
Thanks for the lesson. Found out a couple of new tips.
This Information is worth lots in future gold. Thanks for the knowledge.
Nice looking gold Gary, I sure like the sound of it when you drop it on the scale!
I think diving season is over for me in Michigan, it's already getting cold so keep these great videos rolling. I might have found enough jewelry this year to take a road trip, that scenery out your way is sure beautiful. Good Luck!
You are an inspiration-- your energy and perseverance. I can't move about right now, so I go out with you and really enjoy it.
Great vid old Two Toes
Never to long bro
Love seeing new places to find gold
I like your underwater stuff as it’s what I like doing too
It’s just nice underwater seeing pop out in front of you
Thanks for the tag along matey yew
The Crouch in Oz
I love your videos!!! Soooo much great information! Thank you!
This is the second time i’ve watched this info packed video trying to soak it all in. I prospect in the Kaweah river basin which is not known for its gold deposits, so i have to make sure i use good technique. You are a gold mine of good techniques. Thank you for your tremendous effort.
I live in an area with over 400,000 square kilometers of almost untested placer gold. There have been commercial testing here and there and there are a few gold minds here. But as far as I can tell there is no one panning or mini sluicing local rivers and creeks and ocean shores, around here. Exposed bedrock is more common here than not! I just got a new Garret pan set and a backpak mini sluice. Creek and crack exploration is my first intention ,,, but considering there is so little gold information for around here,, I guess I may be one of the First Explorers,,, wow,, that's rare in this world!!
Love your videos.. went out on my first attempt today. I'm older like yourself. I dug, I sluiced, I worked my ass off, lol. For over 6 hours. Got a little black sand mixed with red sand, but no gold. I pretty much expected that. By the time I hiked out of there, and finally got home, I was totally exhausted. My big question is where can we find our youth again. Is it in a crevice that needs dug out, lol.. until then, I'll just have to settle for gold, if I can find any... thank you for your videos.. I can truly relate to you, how you feel at the end..
Hey, Gary! I theorize in some cases there is no source per se. Maybe some of that quartz veined rock is the source and as the rock is tumbled and fractured in flood, it gets broken out as the rock diminishes in size and rolls downstream. That might be why you only find one nugget in a crack and no fines.
plenty hot here in ozz mate 32 c keep up you work boy
You're one of my favorite miners! Thank you for the information, I do t see myself making it to California, but I'll definitely utilize it in washington, and if you're ever up here, you're welcome to go with us anytime thank again man you're awesome
This is absolutely awesome! Thank you so much. I have written it down in my little book of secrets 😎. Once again, thank you!
Always good information Thank You for sharing .
Nice tip on why shiny rocks are heavier! Thanks for the vid
As always priceless info thanks Gary for sharing you the man!
good info for sure !!!!
very nice gold thank you for sharing the adventure
Gary that makes a lot of sense. If you get a chance you should give us a quiz. I believe you did one last year where we got to guess which crevice would be better. Always nice to see if we would be right or wrong.
Great, thanks. A class with class. Length is more than ok
Thanks for another great video , I hunt for jewelry in the sea but a lot of the same principles apply .
Totally agree with "roastbeefoffroad", I could have watched another 30 mins of that video if it existed. So, I gonna have my 1st gold hunting adventure this spring in England. Now I know I can do it without getting my feet wet. Great video bro. Though I'd be happy if I found that amount of gold in a lifetime in the UK.
Your videos are not too long. All good. Lots of good insight and knowledge you are sharing. thnx
I love the long videos. You get to see more. Thank you for sharing. ;)
You outdid yourself 'Golden Sensei,' this video is going to take some amature prospectors a few rungs up the golden ladder! Myself included, Thank You Gary!
great video such great advice I would recommend a digging mat I am always sad when I forget mine because it doesn't add any weight in your pack and always pads anything in the backpack as well as the knees when I dig
Hey man I enjoy all of your videos and watch them again and again (IT takes awhile to sink in) I'm up on the Trinity River finding flood gold everywhere i go and would love to find anything bigger. Keep the videos going there very interesting and informative. Thank you. And oh yeah lots of lead.😁
Hello Gary, that video was fantastic. The length was fins except I wish it was 1 1/2 hrs long. I have learned so much from watching your videos and the way you explain things. Please don't stop making them. God Bless you Gary and may your gold pans turn yellow. Oh, and thank you so much for sharing.
Very informative video. Thanks for sharing your skill and knowledge. This just might be my new hobby, along with rockhounding and fossil hunting, since I love hiking anyway.
"Product of public school" that joke never gets old!!! Haha
Another good video! Thanks!
Gary very informative thanks for showing us how its done.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND SHARE YOUR TRUE HELPFUL KNOWLEDGE WITH EVERYONE !
You make the best videos Gary, I am so inspired by your content, thank you!
I live in Chico ca, and have been panning and sluceing upper butte creek canyon, have you ever tried that creek?
I dredged Butte creek in the 70's. That creek has some of the most beautiful gold around. Nuggets up to I/4 ounce were fairly common. There is a ton of fine gold in that creek. There are so many houses along it now, there isn't much access to the good area.
Got it,...thanks for the reply and again, your videos are the best! And your vids are not even too long! Keep up the good work!
Very informative Gary. Thank you for this video
You Sir are living your best life...enjoy!!!
Hope the fires haven't messed with you too much. Sure enjoy your videos always seem to find some gold.
