    I really enjoyed watching your video. You are such a calm and mellow guy. Thanks for this... I will be watching more of your videos for sure. I live in Apache Junction, Arizona. Maybe I will run into you someday and you can show me a thing or two about a thing or two. Be safe out there

    Haha as a native to Arizona, the sounds of the desert did not correlate with the current month of November and I had to check when this was posted. 😂
    Those cicadas and other insects only come out to sound off the sizzle when it’s like 110 degrees or hotter! ❤️‍🔥🌵🤙🏼
    Happy prospecting and stay hydrated!

    Nice Kit Fox. The wildlife in the desert is very sparse til night falls. I'd go out and set under the stars and wait an hour and then the critters would start to prowl. I'd see jack rabbits and kit foxes and all kinds of mice and rats. It helps to have a night vision scope.Prospecting is still good now but it's going to get hot soon with April only a few weeks away. Quartzite will soon be a ghost town with all the snowbirds heading north.

    I had two razors passing going up the mountain from chloride lol . Be nice to know if it was you or not . Well I hiked up past the murals . Didn't find much of anything on the detector but seen a lot of possible spot's including a coyote hole someone dug out . I didn't bring a good enough flash light to head off inside . So I continue going up from there . Following the iron fisher . Probably head back up after this cold weather clears up . Sure wish I had a razor to ride because walking 20 miles isn't fun at all lol .

    Awesome video. I'm just starting out in Nevada. Would you recommend the Gold Bug 2 for a beginner? (Right now I have an ACE 200.) I see when you found the nuggets you had switched to the Minelab. Would you have found those nuggets with the Gold Bug 2? Thank you!

    • @IBRAKEFORBEDROCK
      @IBRAKEFORBEDROCK  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      When starting out, you must have a proper metal detector that is known to find gold. The fisher gold bug two is amazing. However it has a bigger learning curve. The mind lab gold monster, 1000 is easier to use and find gold very well.Pulse induction metal detectors punch, deeper than VLF metal detectors. The AC 200 is doing you no good.

      Hi , camp is small and compact . ATV for all the travel. I guess it just depends on how much time I have off but usually just weekends.

    I went out yesterday for the first time with my new Equinox 800 I tried what you do laying the detector down to wave the scoop over the coil, what I'm finding is as soon as I lay the detector down it starts to scream? It doesn't matter where I rest it? As soon as the shaft is horizontal it starts making noise that I can't use it to scan the scoop? I tried different modes. It's been noise cancelled. Why does my 800 do this? I'm using the 11" coil still trying to get the 6" . Probably going to buy it online and hope it gets to Quartzite in time so it can use it before we have to head out of the LTVA.

    Looking good! Some gold is better than no gold, huh? You mention the ruggedness of the desert and that you were at one time pretty remote. What are your concerns about going out like this alone? I know you’re experienced, but $hit happens. Is there decent cell coverage for an emergency?

    Hello, I'm a mom of a 12 yo and a 14 yo. I just ordered them the minelab 1000 gold monster in an attempt to get them off their phone and hopefully get them on a prospecting hobby. Can you guys give me some guidance as to where I can take them metal detecting? Or do you ever take other people with you in a group?
    Thank you

      Hi there 👋 I’m sorry but I do not take people out at this time. You did good buying that very capable detector, and the only thing I can recommend at this time is to join a prospecting club in your area. Most prospecting clubs have mineral leases that their members can use freely to detect for gold nuggets. I wish you all the best

      Detectors can hear electical type interference , so generally they do not run super quiet. Although my GPX5000 is a very quiet machine.
      Find a used Minelab Gold Monster 1000 . Lots of them sitting in closets

      VLF`s in general are really sensitive to black sands / heavily mineralized soils. It can do it but with that deep of ground a PI like the GPX series would be a better choice. The Gold Bug 2 would have to be dumbed down , but you will lose sensitivity and depth to targets.

    at 5:06, ummm your flawed opinion is noted. and, i feel compelled to say that, that sort of test is NOT telling you how well the detector works, in a real world situation. ALL that NEEDS to be done to change that is to pile some DIRT and rocks on top of your planted target. but, oh well.

    • @IBRAKEFORBEDROCK
      @IBRAKEFORBEDROCK  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Sorry, it does apply. Most people should only be hunting bedrock with the Gold Bug 2 anyway. . The air test is only to see if the detector can even see the gold at all. As explained in the video. Depth tests in air are the ones that are flawed. I think your misinterpreting the two different types of air tests
