I lost my job last year and had to sell my truck, and I just had a surgery on my foot, so I can't get out myself and its slowly killing my soul...your vids are truly therapeutic to me, I don't want them to end, I'll get back on top soon, but until i do...thank you Jerry!!
Jerry and mike, great video. Love that mike found three pieces in that small hole. The small holes are always overlooked. They often have the nicest gold. Glad you didn’t get robbed by that guy!
Another great video, my wife heard ur narration and said, " he's has a nice calm voice, no screaming and costume wearing." From her that's a huge compliment. Again keep them coming. Tom
Thanks Tom and thanks to your wife! Thats good to hear, I think I know the other I was being compared to lol, hes great but yeah I can see what she is saying..
Sweet video again Jerry! 👊Loved the recap of day 1, but man my highlight was "Honey-hole Creek"! Enjoyed hearing your gold mining "detective" work with the hand stacked rocks. I love making those guesses with the signs of old miners too. Being a 2nd grade teacher I was laughing with your joke about Mike being the Big Bad Wolf and the three little nuggets...hilarious! 😂Mike is right though you should've been happy with gold in your pan! You're getting spoiled with getting consistent pickers Jerry! Just kidding, I know how that gets when a mining partner out does you...you just want to match what they have. Great Adventure, thanks for putting in all that time! Respect ✌️-Corey
Man that's one heck of a career and I bet it can be both rewarding and challenging! Thanks for the kind words bro, hope your getting out and getting that shiny!
Hah nice Shaka 🤙 mike! Dang those were some nice pans too bro You killed it with those pickers from that creek That was a sick camping trip jerry!! Man those hills look steep and rugged That stack wall looked beautifully done so you know there was good gold out of that spot... Thanks again for another killer video coming from the heart of the California motherlode!!
We need to get out with Mike soon, hopefully this weekend! So many adventures so little time lol.. Had a blast last weekend, can't wait to get back up there!
morning jerry , so nice to see part 2 waitn for me here at the machine shop to watch. man mountain mike looks like he has been hold up fer sure. poor guy. i told ya we shoulda mounted a rescue party. glad he is out n about. good morning mike !! so on to watchn the video, i know its great. always very enjoyable . thanks jerry for doing this.
wow, i tell you what jerry, you can borrow my rotty scotty, any time brother. he likes sleeping just inside the door. his bark is so loud and deep. he is a sweetie. would watch your stuff for a chicken bone and some treats.lol
Thanks for supporting Marko, My grandfather and his brothers were machinist, my dad still owns the shop which is now a auto body shop. He still has a lot of cool stuff like the lathe from the turn of the century..
That is a awesome camper trailer. Great time of the year (where permitted) to get out to no where travelling and looking for gold. Thanks again for a awesome video.
You are living my dream! Fun stuff....keep`em coming please🍻. You've got a great group to hang with and an incredible playground to enjoy......you are very fortunate! At this point the gold is a bonus🍻
JERRY AWESOME video nice to see Mountain Mike back out again lol his hair is getting out of hand lol his hair starting to look like a Mountain lol well cant wait to see the rest of the week brings u hopefully big heavy pans👍😎🇨🇦👍😎🇨🇦👍😎🇨🇦
I cant get enough of them pyrite cubes! Mountain Mike celebrates exactly the same way as Dan hurt EXACTLY! sounds kinda like tigger from Winnie the Pooh! Hahaha that little yellow flower and looking like a little Tweety Bird! Much love see you next time!
Jerry you are amazing with the cameras and editing. I feel like I’m watching a gold show on the discovery channel....well minus that NUT who was throwing rocks at the drone. Mike got some nice chunky pieces. Bottom line, you have the best channel and I look forward to helping you out soon! Oh, nice camper set up bud, I’m going to have to get one of those when I get back to California. Keep up the great job and day 4 will bring heavy pans brother!
California Mother Lode Prospectors I wouldn’t say it if it wasn’t true! You really make us viewers feel like we are there with you! I know I will be in a few months....lol
@@californiamotherlodeprospect that's the adventure part, you have to find the spots people have trouble going and maybe overlooked. Wish I was exploring with ya man looks fun.
Jerry, very nice series. Great footage and perseverance pays off. Those 3 pieces that Mike got out of the boil hole are beautiful. Fun times. That creek looks like it deserves some return visits. Thank you all for sharing.
Great part 2!! Its always unnerving when strangers act strange. Glad it turned out ok. What a beautiful trip you had. Some nice gold too. We just love what your doing. Keep up the great work bud. Much love from over here in Lake county.
Now THAT was an adventure! All you need is a little dramatic music for the crack head portion. Very cool work Jerry. Looking forward to the next episode. Heavy Pans.
It makes me wonder, the gold being rough and chunky, must be coming from somewhere close! Hang in there brother, get happy! A bad day in the woods is much better than any day at work! May God continue to bless your adventures!
I never used to carry an o ring pick until the other day I couldn’t get a nugget out because my crevice tool wouldn’t fit in the crack. Had to beat my rock hammer on the bed rock for an hour before the crack broke apart enough to pop out the nugget lol. 6.23 grams wedged in a tiny crack just out of range for the detector until I cleaned the crack and checked it again. Good job keeping your situational awareness that would suck to get robbed while you’re in the bottom of the canyon.
I saw you have a head lamp to be honest instead of using the bar and trying to move it that's where the car jack comes in you move the big rock stick the jack down behind it and turn the scissor jack putting rocks down behind it to hold the place just a thought
That’s some nice gold. Your videos inspired me to try and find my own spot. I thought I would have to drive a few hours away to find anything at all but I ended up finding gold at a creek that 5 minutes away from me
California Mother Lode Prospectors Me too !!! I got some more dream mats for my gold cube another tray and some gold cube clamps coming in. Once I get it all the modifications done and camod up to match the rest I want to get out to the Yuba with it!!! I think I light hot my parent creek for a little bit this weekend when I go hunting.
Sweet Video! You guys are really close to the lode. Can't believe the tweek zombies made it all the way out there! 🧟♂️Stay safe and thanks again for the awesome videos! If you come up to Oregon I would love to show you some great spots. I have 3 claims 👊😎
I forgot to ask what kind of drone was that? I bought my son the DJI Mavic Mini for Christmas, it’s really an awesome drone and it’s so dang compact!! Oh and I agree with you when it comes to ticks! I had one in my life and that was ONE TOO MANY!!!
Another good video Jerry! Sure; not much for gold on your end but, great location and footage. Glad everything worked out with your unwanted visitor. And to Mountain Mike, Way to go! I dream of finding stuff like that since I'm in Vermont. It's out there and, it has my name on it.
@@californiamotherlodeprospect Well, I got some good stuff today. Thought of you in the process and how you would say, (Well, I didn't get skunked)... To you it would be and ok clean out. But for me, it was pretty darn good.
Another great video man. My offer still stands to come join you and help out. If not I'm sure I will seeya out there. I'll be camping out on the yuba this weekend . Will shoot ya pics.. Heavy pans
My wife and I have had a few crazy I mean super crazy run in's while we were parked with our RV in the same place you were definitely some strange folks up there lol be safe
@@californiamotherlodeprospect we had had a guy yelling and throwing rocks over the bank feet from my sluice box that night I'm assuming that same guy parked nose to nose with our RV beeping flashing his high beams....and no cell service to call the cops
Sweet Videos sir and thank you for the time you put into them, I just signed up with the GPAA today. I've never done this before and watching your vids is getting me pumped. I'm here in El Dorado County any advice on good stores to purchase supplies.
Jerry, sometimes searching for gold can be frustrating and a half but for that day when the gold is a plenty it definitely makes up for the weak ones. I always try to remind myself that just being out is reward enough and it usually is but dam when gold isn’t there it’s a piss off for sure. Keep on searching good things are on their way. PS watch out for the weirdos they are everywhere 🤪
I wont give location names in this post. I seen that truck on the other side of the divide! I think he lives in the town above you. There was a homeless guy living under the south end abutment of the bride last year. I am told by a claim owner up stream that he will "BORROW" equipment if given the chance but the truck guy is a different guy. On the same side there is a popular hiking trail that save a lot of time to go up stream a couple of miles if you want to venture up that way. Most of the little creeks that can be claimed are claimed by few long time locals and speculators but the big creek you passed to get to your campsite is mainly claimed by speculators 4 years ago. so there may be a couple of claims open now if you look. Like I said, the big gold is under the BIG boulders. I'm heading up that today to my claim in a hour or so. Great video again! Keep up the adventures!
I hope you did good and thanks for the info! I really need to spend more time up that way, its been a while for sure but lots of neat area and good gold up there.. Thanks for the heads up and support!
@@californiamotherlodeprospect I haven't been there since the 90s, but I know lots of gold places. I do have to go there to remember where to go. Is covid being nice to you?
I'm glad that you noticed that f'n meth head thief ... he was obviously wanting to steal something from you.. he deserved a 9mm bro! Thanks for sharing this vid and all of your videos Jerry!! I hope you and mountain mike find the motherlode placer deposit!!! Good luck mining to you and mike and stay safe !!!
I tried to get some paydirt off amazon to help out but not available you don't have a small work light not a head lamp I could get you a milwaukee rover work light (small and bright) 2 AA batteries on low power runs for 16 hours (100 lumens) (high power 300 lumens) clips right on to your pocket or the 2 magnets on it lets you stick it to something I have one light up my whole room easy (milwaukee tools) bad ass tools up to you
I lost my job last year and had to sell my truck, and I just had a surgery on my foot, so I can't get out myself and its slowly killing my soul...your vids are truly therapeutic to me, I don't want them to end, I'll get back on top soon, but until i do...thank you Jerry!!
I am very glad to help Mark, thanks for the support!
Jerry and mike, great video. Love that mike found three pieces in that small hole. The small holes are always overlooked. They often have the nicest gold. Glad you didn’t get robbed by that guy!
I agree about the small holes being overlooked, seen it a lot! Thanks Della!

It was a ture adventure for sure! Hope you guys are staying healthy and getting out on the river soon!
Now THAT was an adventure! All you need is a little dramatic music for the crack head portion. Very cool work Jerry. Looking forward to the next episode. Heavy Pans.
HAHA good Idea Devin! Gotta re stock up on music soon.. Will have to expand my collection for these situations!
It makes me wonder, the gold being rough and chunky, must be coming from somewhere close!
Hang in there brother, get happy! A bad day in the woods is much better than any day at work!
May God continue to bless your adventures!
Thank you much Bud, I know it was not too far from the source for sure..
an awesome little adventure ☺ enjoyed very much ⛏
Glad you enjoyed it J thanks bro!
That was badass with the drone.. friken sketchers.. i thought he was gonna ram your truck.. nice gold guys!
HAHA thanks bro
Seems like a lot of fun out there ))
It sure was!
Great Video, Brother! Keep Up The Great Work! #LBPA4Eva
Much appreciated bro, LBPA4EVA!!
SamSkwantch!!!
Mike's gold was pretty darn crunchy!! It was probably coming off the hill right above him! Bob in Germany
I think your onto something there Bob, oh unboxed the sluice today, man that thing is sweet.. Thanks again I can't wait to feed it some gravel!
I never used to carry an o ring pick until the other day I couldn’t get a nugget out because my crevice tool wouldn’t fit in the crack. Had to beat my rock hammer on the bed rock for an hour before the crack broke apart enough to pop out the nugget lol. 6.23 grams wedged in a tiny crack just out of range for the detector until I cleaned the crack and checked it again. Good job keeping your situational awareness that would suck to get robbed while you’re in the bottom of the canyon.
That's a nice find Wes! I just found a pick like that and its now in my pack, I've found a lot of the tools I use actually lol..
I saw you have a head lamp to be honest instead of using the bar and trying to move it that's where the car jack comes in you move the big rock stick the jack down behind it and turn the scissor jack putting rocks down behind it to hold the place just a thought

@@13mjunky your point is
@@greedygringoprospecting6941 I never had the thought just saying.
Yes sir thanks for the info
This made me laugh!
Button bits for air tracks. Drill bore holes for blasting.
That land reminded me of some hollows in Tennessee. Great video Jerry 👍
It sure had that feeling! Thanks Dan
Man, keep working that tiny little creek. It's definitely close to the source.
I need to get back up there for sure!
Thank you for all the great videos, I have learned so much!
Hello, I was wondering what GPS you would recommend. Thank you!
You are so welcome!
I use a Garmin Inreach
That’s some nice gold. Your videos inspired me to try and find my own spot. I thought I would have to drive a few hours away to find anything at all but I ended up finding gold at a creek that 5 minutes away from me
Congrats Hunter that is awesome! I'm glad to have inspired you to find gold, I hope you find more soon!
Mike strikes it Rich!!
Yes sir Lester HAHA!
Those pyrite cubes r cool, nice gold cant wait to see day 4.

Nice gold buddy!!

Even a alarm sensor for movement on the trailer?

cool drill bits

I tried to get some paydirt off amazon to help out but not available you don't have a small work light not a head lamp I could get you a milwaukee rover work light (small and bright) 2 AA batteries on low power runs for 16 hours (100 lumens) (high power 300 lumens) clips right on to your pocket or the 2 magnets on it lets you stick it to something I have one light up my whole room easy (milwaukee tools) bad ass tools up to you
Thanks for the tip!
