Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t... - บันเทิง
All that work for around $25 is that right?
One hours work for $30. So good.
Vo-Gus Prospecting Ok. Thought it was more like most of the day. So that is good 👌
He did think it took a whole days work which clearly wouldn't be very good if it's your job.@C c
@@VoGusProspecting One hour ? Unless you live right there I'm assuming there was travel time there and back, time working the site, plus fuel cost, plus equipment cost. At today's gold price of $1305.00/oz. you made roughly $23.00. Don't get me wrong, it looks like an enjoyable way to get outdoors. Just not a very profitable one. But more power to ya
@@thomvogan3397 at $23 per hour its still more money then the average wage ,if you did that as a 48 hour a week job it works out to be $1104 thats pretty good money whats wrong with that ? That is good money
I am a retired Air Force disabled veterean. Lately I have been diagnosed with PTSD. I use panning along with medication for theraphy for treating my PTSD. After watching every video from Vo-Gus, I have tripled the amount of gold I have been finding. Biggest difference is test panning now, before I start digging in one spot. Thanks for all your wisdom and keep with all your great videos.

Great to hear mate. Its fantastic that you're out there getting some gold and good times.
I am a disabled army vet with PTSD and several other issues. How would I get into this
@@VoGusProspecting how do I get started. I am a disabled veteran I love the outdoors and doing things that not everybody does
@@JohnSmith-om9rd best wishes. The way I got started was by looking up a local hobbie store. Look for your local Garrett metal detector dealer. Garretts page will assist you with this. This gave me a local association along with getting my basic tools. Best wishes buddy
@@kristophergossett8753 thanks, I live in Florida but want to go do this somewhere with gold. So I am thinking a week or two camping would be fun. Unfortunately for me I have to go somewhere other than my backyard. So any advice on places would be much obliged.
Work all area behind the rock bar and funnelled area then work towards the banks. Dig down till you hit rock floor or clay layer. In dry season clean out creek or work area completely, including cleaning out the crevices, then process. I've cleaned out many small creeks over the years in far north Queensland and had lots of success with gold, tin, gemstones. I use home-made sluice box in a kit form for easy carry or a "Banjo" type sluice box set up once on a good run that's long term working. Any old timers reading this will know of a " Banjo " type sluice box set up. Best way to remove ironstone from pan is with magnet from underneath before you fully concentrate your fines or use magnet in old film cannister gently gliding over top of fines in pan. Hope this little trick helps those who read the comments. Cheers from an old fart now in WA still, digging gold.
I'm willing to come out n b ur aprentice
Cool!!!
Cheers for the tip. Legend
Chris I'm so glad you do these videos. I have been doing this for a couple years and I have learned more from you in a couple weeks then the whole time I've been digging dirt. Thank you so much!
I get this a fair bit lol, hope the Gold gods are smiling on you
I've had this idea for 30 years that one the creeks on our farm might have some gold in it, so I watched this video last night then went out this morning and with in 15min I found some colour very happy. Cheers for posting bud.
I am so thankfull for having found your videos Chris, Im just starting but ive done alot wrong so far getting put on the right track is awsome !
15 seconds in and I realized I could hang out with this guy! He would like my company too!
I work for oceanaGold a Aussie commercial outfit. Great company , great people. Gold mining puts food on my table. Great videos , I subscribed!
Great video with lots of gray tips and knowledge as usual. Thanks again for all the fun content.
Love your work, Chris. Am just starting to appreciate the effort/skill involved in the technical, camera/editing side of what you do. Bravo! :)
Thank you!
@@VoGusProspecting noice
@@VoGusProspecting u look like muslim
Thank you so much Chris. I never lose concentration with your educational videos. And the snow melt is well underway here at home. I'm doing a new river sluice(again) with Gold Owl mats.
Good luck mate, I hope you find lots!
Amazing! You've inspired me to go out & prospect for GOLD in Thailand. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Absolutely brilliant video Vo-Gus. Clear, concise, informative and a sensational source of information for any beginner. Well done mate!
thank you!
No words can explain how well you have done this video. Good job 👍
I've been wanting to learn how to do this for a while. Thanks for the vid. Very cool
Thanks for the simple speak. I’ve had the habit of not testing enough/properly. And it frustrated me every time! “Good pan on the first go! I’ll keep working this section.” 3 pans later... “Where’d all the gold go?” 🤔
Yes, the hills are starting the thaw right now here in Canada. Creeks are slow enough to do some preflooding work and then in a few months will be low again for flood gold/flour.
Thanks for the contributions!
You have sparked my interest. Great way to get outdoors and the only hobby that I know of that can actually pay for itself!
Fantastic video Chris, very informative
Paul
Very Cool! You have a great technique and the personality to match!
Thanks much and many happy adventures to you!
I love this golden oldie. This is about the time I found your channel!
Thanks buddy for the info and tips. Had a dry run without this knowledge with my family on holidays. Second attempt will be awesome thanks man.
Best video I've found so far,thanks from south Australia
Thanks mate
You've come along way with your video editing chris, good job as always.
It's been a great learning experiance
Refreshing to come across an Aussie video. I'm now a subscriber. Bloody good stuff mate.
As always Chris, a fantastic informative video. I really enjoyed it. thanks mate.
thank you sir! i appreciate the knowledge. i wish you the best of luck!
Great vid man 🤟🏾😉 love that spot ! Looks like a win for the yella 👍🏾😉
Gus!! Thank you brother man. I have watched hundreds of videos and it always begins with a camera in a hole! Thank you for teaching how to read the creek.
Hey Dude, awesome. Great to see an Aussie on here. Really well explained. Thanks. I'm very new to this, just starting out on this particular journey and appreciate your clear teaching. Just found you and subbed. Will make sure I watch all your content in the coming week while it's so hot. Stay cool and happy and prosperous prospecting to you. From the Aussie Aunty on the NSW/VIC border. Thanks again :-)
Great video dude and good gold. I doubted that little sluice first few times I saw it but thing really kicks ass and holds that fine gold really well.
Awesome video Chris that creek sounds like one I go to if you dig deeper than 12inches the gold vanishes.
This is awesome man! You are the only gold prospecting channel i truly enjoyed watching. Thanks for the good information. Will definitely do better test pans next time i'm out at the creek.
Cheers buddy
Hello there! Thanks very much for all not only interesting videos but simples right to the subject and fun to watch! Me to i am a PDSD Major (Officer in special Interventions and emergencies team for 31 years and i got a bad parachute landing on a rescue mission and broke my back! There we go saving life and now Paraplegic! 3 Neuro surgeries 1 1/2 years to learn to walk again and 2 bones transplant and getting stronger for the last 5 years!! I had enough of seing the worst atrocities of the human being i gave up! So now i found , like you. a new great activity gold Prospecting and detecting here in the wonderful North of QUÉBEC City Canada. I am just a bigginer but your video gives me so much easy info that i go slow but i bought the best equipment for my 2 new activities! Thanks again and hope to see more of you soon my Prospecting Mentor!! Sincerely Frankk
Supreme video here folks and that catchy, Sonic the hedgehog song is the best. It's not the number of views that makes a video. it's the prospector that makes it great keep up the great work.
How many people would rather do this everyday than go to your job?
Probably every one lol
I would love to, but keep in mind that he found only max 15/20 dollars of gold in 4 hours.. I don't know what the avarage wage in the US is, but I make that in an hour of normal work...
No thanks. I make $60 per hour doing what I like. This looks too much like work.
@@luukzsyou can find 2,000 dollars worth of gold(1 ounce) in less than a month which is pretty goodwill
I love panning!! So soothing
Thanks Chris. This will help to prevent too much disappointment
Love the videos, just discovered your channel after a weekend panning with the kids on the Shoalhaven river NSW.
Only 10 little flecks but great fun out in nature. Love your vids, great editing and cinematography mixed with super helpful Gold info. Subscription earned!
Thanks mate, hope you're enjoying the channel
Just Found you , I'm a new sub, really enjoy your style, good stuff, best of luck to you !!
Informative. Watched the whole thing.
Quality and informative as always mate, thank you.
Awesome content, total newbie here. Gonna be moving to a farm with a small creek that occasionally gets heavy rainwater running through it, seems like the best place to start practicing. Your video helps a ton and is fun to watch for one. I'm gonna be aiming to make my own jewelry and didnt even consider the gemstones you could find. That mat is awesome btw
Great instruction. Thanks for the video!
That was AWSOME Chris a great lesson
What a top looking creek too
You could see the water mark in the trees
Nice deposits of Mr Yellow mellow
Keep safe love your work
Cheers Crouch
Thank you for such a great video my friend!! I wanted to try to start hunting with my wife (she’s incredible!!) here in Texas, and your videos are always amazing..as are you and your mates! Cheers from Abilene, TX!!
By far the most real gold finding video on YT I have found. Thanks man! Subbed
Wow, thanks!
You deserve my like, man. Excellent job and good Gold!
Hi there. Love watching your videos, particularly the tutorial aspect. My family (hubs, 2 kids under 10) and I have caught the bug and are still very, very green. So I was wondering if you could suggest a few places to go around the north east and also central (Vic). That's for your time and keep making your awesome videos 😊
Thank you for everything that you showed me I'm new at trying this 60 years old and hopefully it's enjoyable
Thanks sir. I always get inspired to go out and find gold, great video. More power and more gold to find
2020 lock down.. After watching this.. I'm gonna go panning.. That's my 2020 hobby/skill.. Thank you sooo much.. 👍
Good stuff bro
Hi Chris another great informative video mate thanks for posting, the more times i watch the same sought of thing the more your info sinks in keep up the great work and keep these awsome vids flowing please its much appreciated mate 🤠🤠🤠✌️
Thank you, its great to hear this sort of feedback!
aussie guy 8
Back to the basics. Nice work Chris
Awesome video will help out so many people, I've been know to get a bit excited by a couple of good pans only to pull the highbanker out and find more often then not that I hit a small pocket of gold and not a paystreak!
Had to rewatch to refresh myself...love these videos mate!!
I have to agree...I’ve learned most of what I know from Chris. I think I do pretty well...check my channel if ya want to see 🙃
nice Video. I am often to lazy to do this.But after your vid, i will try ist once again,.Greetings from Germany Goldjunge Tom
One of the best information videos I have seen on the subject! Thanks
Hope it was good and clear
You are a wealth of Knowledge. Your way you identify where to find gold is priceless. I am retired and have been panning for gold in Wa State the last few years. I subscribed to your channel.
Thx Again!
Great to have you on the channel. I hope you find my other videos as informative.
@@VoGusProspecting
Chatting with my wife about your video. I look forward to your videos.. Definately keep me motivated!
a bit of outdoors, a bit of workout, a bit of gardening and nature :D a bit of cash =p good day tbh
That looks like so much fun ♥
Because it is!
I have never paned for gold before and am watching various videos to learn how. This was a good start.
Its all about practice, just get out there and start doing it!
This is the best vid I’ve found to teach me about panning. Nice job
From piedmont nc thanks for the refresher
Love your channel brother you have a new sub
Great video, excellent information. I've been dabbling in gold panning recently and had little knowledge of how to actually identify a probable gold deposit location. Thanks!
An excellent video with lots of good information. You can't help but feel inspired watching how you approach the subject while at the riverside. Many thanks for sharing your awesome skills. Liked and Subscribed.
He had me at "Warning strong sarcasm and satire!!!" LOL
Very cool. Well I just quit my day job Haha. *Pan on* ⚔👨🏻🌾
Great video, lived in Oz for a year. Kalgoorlie for 5 months, big gold town. He's fair dinkum forsure.
Back home and this summer I'm doing some panning.
Great information on where and how to work an area for Gold. Camera work is very good. Love your channel. 🏆
I love that music!
Love your content thanks! Where are you in Australia? Also could there be gold in the Blue Mountains NSW? Bit of a silly question maybe please forgive my ignorance.. Cheers.
Maybe go panning
This was honest;y so helpful. You explain things so well and professionally.
Love this channel as much as Victorian gold hunters channel both have great knowledge
Great video! Trying to get up with the chap that said he could find an ounce a day panning! Lol. 🤡🎈
Let me know when you do :-) hahahah
Great video mate
Thank you
Congratulations on 1,000,000 views! Awesome achievement. Well done. Love watching your videos. Cheers⛏️🏞️🐾
On the west coast of the states and we’ve had some monster storms the last couple of weeks. Can’t wait til early summer(post floods) to get back on my favorite river. Nice color Chris and thanks again for sharing your wisdom.
Good luck mate
How lovely to be able to spend time in nature and rivers and streams and still make a little $$$ for the privilege.
Most newbies don't understand its hard work. Only a few come back for another day. LOL
Not many have gold like you do. Good for you!!
Ya have to love the hunt. Great video as always. Thanks.
I love the work and the reward! ;) if you are not getting the gold just need to work harder with your brains! :D
@@-meganeura That's why I love you tube, sucking up all the knowledge I can.
Thanks for all the great videos everyone.
I am working on getting some up on my channel soon.
Very educational Chris. Thank you.
Fantastic educational video. Thanks Chris.
😅 I'm going to try panning I think theres some gold in California. I could be wrong but I'm going to check. ....... 😉 just being sarcastic . Lol thanks Chris weathers looking nice there! Theres been a bit of rain lately here. But ..... that rain helped me pull a half pennyweight nugget this weekend. So I cant complain anyways cheers and heavy Pans with zero yellow rocks!
Good work man, I saw the video! great find
Good explanation of testing. What are you going to say when you get a new hat!
Not sure man, trying to avoid that at all cost!
Great vid very informative and some lovely colours to boot !! cheers
Great video Chris, you the man!
When I was in Colombia I told the uncle there is GOLD right there . He said not here . I panned anyway , the black sand came up , I knew there was gold and more panning showed plenty of it . he was shocked , lived there all his life and never knew . Was kinda exciting pulling out a few grams .
How much do you charge for private panning lessons?
$0. Just bring snacks to share.
@@VoGusProspecting Sold!
Ha!!! a lot warmer where he is though!
@@PioneerPauly It's nice that you were able to negotiate your way to an agreement. That man drives a hard bargain. Does the deal include a snack for Grizzly too?
@@blueleadgoldproductions133 yes, that's a must.
Another great video pal, look forward to the next one 👍👍
Hello from Edmonton Alberta Canada. Another great video Chris, very helpful. Yes spring is coming and I'm getting excited and ready with some DIY gear. Unfortunately Alberta isn't known for nuggets but we do have flour gold for those willing to do the testing and finding that paystreak. So far I've built a multi stage classifier-condenser-saruca out of buckets and looking forward to testing.
You know that people say there's no nuggets in my area but hey, they were wrong. good luck
Whatta hoot ...carryon pip pips 😁
Because of this channel I now have"gold fever"🤒
Dont do that he will make you crazy
Love the Bunnings Fluro pick ive got two great little picks
I was doing a bit of research on gold prospecting before I went on a trip over the mountain pass and we briefly stopped by a stream that was completely littered with gold with some decent size flakes, I might start to get into this hobby
Great video dude, hope grizzly is ok didn’t see him, nice gold 👍🌴
He got the day off
i have a 8 inch wide gold rat sluice, dream matt and that i fitted a home made highbanker to it , i put through about 100 plus shovels through it before i clean up . is that to many , whats your thoughts i run a bucket at end of sluice to catch the sands etc even thou the bucket overflows my thought that gold would sink in the bucket ??, and pan it out as well seam ti find 2 or 3 flat specs in it , the other day i was out found 4 or 5 nice flaky pieces in the bucket, whats your thoughts mate
Never panned before. Wanting to get started. Even your sarcasm in the beginning gets it. Lot of other videos I've watched don't cover the simplest basics that you just did.
"Here's the gold, pan it out". That's their basic explanation.
Where'd you get your sloush box? (Yeah I probably misspelled that, lol). Like your sense of humor.
Keep it up.
I would love to go out searching for gold someday , I bought a $600 metal detector & a gold pan , thanks for showing us my friend !!! 👍😊
I will be smiling if it just a grain its soooo exciting natures treasure
Wheres grizz at.he my star of the show
Super adventure. Thank you for sharing. Happy Hunting.
Thank you
