Welcome to Midwest Dave's Gold Prospecting adventures:
This is probably the last Prospecting trip for 2022 unless I go panning. Chuck Lassiter and I hit our usual hot spot, where I jump around for the biggest part of 2 days. After struggling to find a great spot, I finally hit the best pocket I have seen all year. Now, I am hoping for next Spring, so I can hit it again !
It is our wish to bring fun and educational videos to you, while having fun in the process. Please let us know if you have any questions or have any ideas to share. We are also always interested in investigating new creeks and rivers in the Midwest. We can show you how to find gold in your creek or on your property :)
Good luck prospecting. Hope you have heavy pans of gold !

looks like the white river nice job
Thanks for watching, Good luck out there in 2024 !
I needed a gold fix so I thought I would stop in. You didn't disappoint. Awesome gold! Looks like I am out of business for a long while. Tore out both shoulders. Having the left side operated on next week. Will have to live through you so get more as soon as it gets warm again, Dave!
Sorry to hear about the shoulders. I was told 2 years ago that I need both of mine replaced. Had 4 surgeries so far, but am hesitant to get them replaced. You will be back at it soon ! Thanks for watching Jerry :) Get well man !!
Im from OHIO i can't bleave that gold you got in Indiana GREAT JOB.
Thanks for watching. It is out there everywhere. Just have to get permission and go get it. Hevy Pans !
Thanks for sharing the adventure. Nice looking gold coming out of that pyrite spot. Good luck, happy hunting and take care. ✌️
Thanks. Those Pyrite pockets are of course always on the bedrock and are the lowest places where gold could have settled during the Ice melt offs during the glacial events. I can't wait to see what is in that spot. I believe I just hit the edges a little. Thanks for watching !
Awsome bro thanks for sharing. There is some nice gold there
Thanks for watching Kris. Yeh, that spot is just going to prove better in future episodes. At least I hope !!! Take Care and good Luck out there.
Nice score man, thanks for sharing.👍
Thanks for watching Rich
Great video! Hope you got back to that spot this past spring! Good to see that Chuck is still out there hitting it!!
Have not been out once this year, with the exception of California. Hope to get out in the next few weeks. Thanks for watching !!!
Awesome Dave👍 I've subscribed. Cheers Kev
Awesome. Thanks for watching and welcome aboard. Hopefully, we can get some great videos coming your way. Take Care and Heavy Pans !
Good video great gold . Have to go to Sugar creek with me sometime this coming spring .
Sounds like a plan. Thanks for watching !
Hell yeah nice gold .
Very nice dave. I'm going to have to invest in building a decent setup so I can start joining in when you go on the hunt.
There ya go Lewis. We still need to get into the Vermillion ! Thanks for watching !
35 deg air temp, I hope you are using a dry suit. That is why it is called prospecting and not mining. We are always searching for that spot. Good color brother. Thanks for sharing your cold adventure.😎😎⛏⛏🔥🔥
Thanks Chuck. Hope things are looking up out there. I am aching to get back to that spot. The weather got warmer here the last few days, but i am too busy trying to downsize some stuff around the house. getting too old to have all of the stuff we have :)
Hi Dave I have subbed your channel regrads Johns detecting Adventures UK
Have you prospected any in Northern Indiana?
No, I have not, but the gold had to travel across Northern Indian to get to where we find it. They also find gold in Michigan, Northern Illinois and Wisconsin, so there has to be considerable deposits in Northern Indiana. The furthest I have prospected is about 2/3rds up the state. Good Luck. Thanks for watching
Any where near Madison County
No. Noblesville is the closest to you that I have prospected. I believe it was Mud Creek. It had a little gold in it., Thanks for watching !
I live in Southern Indiana Washington County, wonder if there is any gold here?
There should be some gold there. Just look for real big rocks in creeks, especially where bedrock exists, and you should find gold.
A gram a day keeps hard labor away....
Why is it Always the Last Pan, or Clean-up🤔🧐‼️🍀🦾⛏️🪠🇺🇸🎯😎👍
Exactly. If I would have found that spot on day one in the morning, I may have found a half ounce for the weekend. Guess I will prove that theory next year, especially when the water is low enough to hit that spot. Thanks for watching ! Good Luck out there.
The sluice rafts are clever, but I think they're wasted in Indiana. I'd love to see those things perform in real gold country.
I use a Keene 4 Inch and have had several others on my claim in California and Oregon. THis homemade floats design still uses the Keene Sluice box with a modification for cleanout. It is very effective in Indiana and would be just as effective on my claim in California. What is real gold Country. We can go out on a weekend and find up to a half ounce. I can't even do that on the warn out claims I have been on out West .
Thanks for watching.
That is some nice shiny,was that the Wabash
Thanks. Unfortunately, I never reveal the stream or location when someone else takes me to their spot. It is a great spot we have been hitting for 12 years and in Chuck's case about 20 years. Good Luck out there ! Thanks for watching :)
What part of Indiana is this that your doing this I live in Jackson county indiana I've never looked but would love to get into it.
From Martinsville (Morgan Monroe State Forest) North, all over the State. Thanks for watching.
Do you need a permit to pan or dredge in Indiana? Just getting started in panning
You only need them in Morgan Monroe State Forest and a couple other locations. You just visit the ranger station or email them to get the free permit. Other places, you need land owners written permission. Thanks for watching. I recommend attending one of the club outings or meetings. There are several clubs in Indiana and Northern Illinois. You can search Facebook for those groups. They are happy to invite you into the gold family and will share a ton of information. Good luck !
