- LETS DREDGE UP SOME GOLD 🤩 Ladies and gents I welcome you to another west coast gold prospecting adventure. Today I’m with my buddy Mitch and he brought his 3” high banker dredge combo. And we decided to start dredging in a spot I left off on a few years ago.
I hope you enjoy

I absolutely appreciate you being part of the adventure my friend. Thank you. And yes I do have some stickers for you. Your comment means a lot and I’ll be sending you a little something else with the stickers 💥👊. Email me in the next video and chat with me. I don’t think I put the email in this one.
Great times indeed fam. Nice Au. Keep at it. Gold Squad Out 🤠
Thanks GS 👊😎
Oh yea snuffer time. Dang black sand Is hard to pan
That looks like so much fun. We didn’t get to dredge this year. But there’s always next year. Great job guys 👍🇺🇸⚒🍀🍻
RIGHT TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH
It was a blast. Except packing stuff in and out. And how about we do a dredging trip when you come up this coming summer ?
Bro that hole was deep AF. We didn’t even hit bedrock on the other side of that chunk we moved.
Great camera work brother Mitch and you are getting that SHINNYYYY!!!!! Looked like a blast
Thanks brotha, it was a blast. Maybe I’ll be seeing you soon 👊😎
I meant to type .081 for two buckets. This was a great live
Thanks brotha.
Right on Damon. Looks like loads of fun. Aloha
It definitely was, appreciate you watching brother. LBPA 👊😎
Heck yeah! Fun fact, I've never dredged
Thank you and you should meet up with us sometime
Nice work man, must've been cool to hang out with Mitch! 💪🏻👍🏻✨️⛏️
Thank you and yes he is great company and a good man.
Damn right P.A.😂
Nothin better than a day dredgein. 🇺🇸
It’s been so long. I forgot how fun it was. Thank you for stopping by Dan.
That looked like a blast I want to get my dredge out this year!
It absolutely was bro. You are always welcome to bring it over. I’ll help you pack it in and out of wherever 👊😎
@@WestCoastGoldProspecting we will definitely have to plan that.
So awsome
It was fun. Definitely expected more than .415 though. Lot of work packing stuff
It was me! Last time i was there with Mitch in August (I think) of 2022, totally forgot. Crazy it didn't get washed away. Glad you finally got a chance to dredge down in there, great video too
😂🤣, that’s awesome !!! 👊😎. If you are available, we are headed back this weekend 🇺🇸💣
@@WestCoastGoldProspecting I'll see if i can make it, thanks man!
Awesome!
Thank you
Wait. Lol I was in a live chat now I'm just in the normal comment section.
👊😎😂🍻
I need a cameraman. That would make it so much easier. Great job...
Absolutely, and thank you.
Keep your hands outta that box! 🤣 Looked like a fun day!
I’ll put my hand in any old box I want😆
😂🤣, I love touching the box 🍻

Fell asleep last night before I could watch this. Great video brother. I think this one is going to do well. I feel you on the back. I feel so lucky to be physically well in my 40s, but even my back muscles are tight the morning after digging. I really wish I had a dredge. A brand new Keene with all the trimmings costs about the same as the transmission I just bought.
I feel ya…. Just dropped coin on a new bighorn 2500 … ouch - hurts more than my back !
I'd rather have a new bighorn than a $6,000 transmission on a 2017 nissan lol. That will have to wait until I have a couple thousand patrons haha@@FlourgoldWizards
I hear ya, and no worries bro. Both are expensive. It’s just one is more important than the other in your situation.
That’s a definite ouch 🤕
Top Job you guys ,!!!!!! great underwater footage too . The Dredging is very addictive , and lots of fun . A nice end result on the AU Damon , a great day all round Buddy , keep up the good work👌👍✅ , Cheers Ned , from a land down under
Thank you Ned, it was absolutely a blast. Appreciate you stopping by my friend.
Git dat gold! Nice work fellas!
We gave it a go for sure. And thank you.
Dang it man missed the premier my bad.
No worries bro, I try to do it at 4:20 but it took forever to upload and edit.
That was so much fun! Lots of work to do up there. Thanks for coming out!
I look forward to the next one with ya 👊
@@WestCoastGoldProspecting 👊🏻
Yo brother, nice work!
@@Pa.PatriotProspecting nothing like dredging!
@@graveyardprospecting the only thing better than dredging is dredging an area with lots of gold! 💪🏻👍🏻✨️⛏️
Fun video. Thank you blessings
I appreciate you stopping by Todd 👊😎
your new gopro looks really good. I ALWAYS run mine in a underwater case when I put the water. They say they don't need it but It will make the cam last a lot longer.
Thank you man, my waterproof case just showed up today so I won’t be taking anymore chances. I beat the heck out of my hero 5.
That looked like a fun project! Stay warm🍻👊
It was definitely fun. Packing stuff out though was the pain 😂
@@WestCoastGoldProspecting I definitely feel for your back🤕
Dayum, Damon 🤨🧐 Looks to me like you need to go back and finish that Hole 😆👌🪠💪🇺🇸😎😂
Yes indeed, I was thinking about going back but it’s a pain in the butt packing stuff in and out.
nice
Thanks
I know right where that is at. Very few places that allow motorized equipment 😅 hello apple
😁👍
nice!!
It was a blast. Except packing stuff out.
I better keep up last i new dredging was not aload in southern Oregon. and Oregon was not giving out the permitts for it.
Just depends on where your at sister.
You might want to try cow Creek or Wolf Creek last time I was up in those areas there was a lot of gold there's another Creek up by sixes River I can't remember the name of it though I remember it a lot of good gold there too good luck 🤞
Thank you
LBPA4LIFE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
LBPA BROTHER 💥🇺🇸👊😎
Weld a screw on the end of the suction pipe! You don’t want all those rock. Going through your pump! You will destroy it maximum wire 1/4 inch wire! Weld it to the intake pipe! So it doesn’t come off!
I like this idea 🤩👌
"SUCK IT UP GENTLEMEN!!" as they say.
😁👌
great film !!!! how are you able to run a gas powered dredge in the river/stream ...??? thought the greenies have it all banned ...
Thank you, and this is a non ESH creek. Meaning we are allowed to dredge. There are still a bunch of places in Oregon that we can.
Lot of equipment you use for the operation! How often do you dredge with the keen/year? Greetings from Germany
It takes a lot of stuff to work properly. And I don’t usually dredge, this is my buddies dredge. It works great though.
3.2 grams
Hmm some test panning maybe next time you had .2 from your first miners moss so you only gained. 2 from roughly 4 hours dredging. I'm sure it was a good time but could have been a better time
I hear ya. We have pulled ounces out of this spot in the last few years. I think we were losing gold due to a couple things. He had the water ripping through the sluice box and it didn’t seem like the riffles were exchanging properly.
Nice shiny ^5. What model / yr scoot in background?
Thank you. It’s a Honda shadow vlx 600 👊😎
Awesome video, looks like you guys had some fun :) how heavy is one of those dredge setups?
Thank you bud, it was a blast. So I’m not to sure on this one. It’s all packed down in pieces. So several trips up and down and not the lightest stuff either.
I think it was more the steepness of the trail, at some points a goat might have a hard time..
Atleast you guys got back safely
I am new to prospecting in southern oregon. I would like to do this kind of stuff. Just dont know where to start.
Join my Facebook group and let’s chat.
what do you think of the spinning gold panning machines?
I have never tried one to be honest. I would like to though.
I wonder if someone like me who is fairly fit, can pan out maybe 2 oz's per month if I did it full time...around southern Oregon?
Even with all our knowledge, equipment, and tricks……it’s really hard to get more than 2 ounces of gold in a year in our part of Oregon.
@@graveyardprospecting oh wow
Ok. Thanks
You might be able to do that if you stayed on the spot 5 days a week and panned 10-12 hours a day. Maybe. Appreciate you watching Fabian
@@WestCoastGoldProspecting what about if I brought in a battery and used a spiral panning machine too?
I got rid of Facebook. I live near where you are dredging in this video. At least an hour or so.
I’m thinking about it as well. And I’m in Medford. Sounds like you might be too ?
@WestCoastGoldProspecting I am more interested in getting information from you about claims and dredging. I am trying to get my own claim going but the government website is not very helpful. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Myrtle creek. Just a bit north of you
@@BeakerLFFL , you need to call Armadillo mining in Grants pass and talk to Sam. She is the one to talk to about potential claims.
Sweet. I greatly appreciate the info. Thank you for time as well.
You want to suck up sand and 1/4” gold tf anything bigger shows up it will be on the screen put in your wetsuit!
Ok 😆👌
