Finding $1000 Worth of Gold Every Day 

Man even without the gold it's such a beautiful little creek, perfect bench for camping under the ferns. Thanks for sharing Rob!

I'm so glad to see you are still making videos. Living vicariously through your adventures every time you post. Thank you.

Watching this is very therapeutic. I think the uplifting music at the end is a nice touch, I didn't mind the music in the previous videos but this feels like a nice compromise. Either way, keep up the good work, I always get a little burst of excitement when I see you have a new video out.

Well done Rob, pleased to see that you had a great reward for the hard work you put in. Your excitement on finding the shovel just shows your dedication to the history of Tasmania.

"Enough of that!". LOL agree. Taking living vicariously to a new degree. Thanks for sharing Rob.

9:10 - my fav game as a kid playing in the stream - creating dams, 30 years old memories just surfaced :)

I see how you use your pan; not just you but Levi & other young fellas. When I first started out with my steel pan all they had was an indented ring an inch from the top edge. The emphasis was put on the constant swirling action of the material in the pan & the gold would be difficult to lose. When plastic pans came out (I still have my original one) they had concave steps on one side like yours does. Rob, you can work the material harder in the pan if it's moving because the gold will always stay at the bottom, irrespective of heavy sands, after all, gold is 24 times heavier than water by volume. Try swirling Rob, truly really. Great shows btw, regards Paul BB FNQld

Miners moss is good for small gold that gets trapped. Try dream mat or one of the others that have larger holes. A shower curtain works well to dam a small creek - weighs little and is quicker than rock walls. Your pan has riffles - use them. Learn to top tap and back wash the magnetite - you lose less gold. Hope that helps.

Right on, every time I watch your videos when you're sniping and seeing the gold you find. I always wondered what it would be like to run a sluice on those creeks . Now I know. Thanks for sharing. 👍

I love the high quality zoom in camera you use, gives me the gold fever even more seeing the nuggs so clear

I love the videos brother. Thanks for sharing the adventures with us!

Ripper weekend Rob well done mate yes, it is so cool coming across old time relics wherever they be. Stay safe.

Great work, Rob 👍🏼. That is hard work and dedication to bring home your bounty, mate.

good story Rob, thanks. next time you sluice block out underneath it and on the immediate sides of it- especially with your sieve throwaways. lots of flow loss was happening right around the sluice itself.love your work!

Nice work Rob. I'm surprised you and Levi don't do more sluicing on your trips. There's plenty of nice inside bends on your journeys but you guys know the rivers better than us. Thanks for sharing your journey

👍well done ,love the description of the larger bits, could see everyone. Over two thirds of an ounce can't be laughed at.

Well done mate, I would have ran the sluice a little deeper and your looking for a V waterline to pull in evenly at the top end. It’s hard work and loads more equipment to drag around panning, sluicing, and highbanking. Saying that I have done for 15 years and now only less than a year I have found more Gold snipping in one year than 15 years with all the equipment. Much easier on the body too. Love your videos rob. 🙌🏻👍

far out, Good On You Rob! awesome effort. thankyou for sharing

Gold fever will ruin this river once the word is out. I would keep location a total secret even if you're far from the west coast of Tasmania. There's almost 600,000 thousand people that live there that would want a piece of that action. Exciting video to watch.

Magical filming Rob, the foliage and picturesque shots were phenomenal to see on the big screen. That amazing piece of history found of the old timers digging tool was epic. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences and passion with us mate. Stay strong and golden my friend. Do you have any merchandise with your logo on them. 🫶👊💪🇺🇸⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️

Thanks Andy been doing it hard lately, separated from my wife august and lost my best friend 3 months later. Good of you to put it out there,thanks for the ride

Bro I'm sure you figured this out by now, but you can use the riffles on your Pan to help ensure you keep as much gold in your pan when washing away. The smooth parts are mainly finishing areas. If you did not know this I hope it helps😁

He calculated this in Australian dollars as a disclaimer. Really cool haul. Thanks for sharing!

Unreal, it just keeps paying out🙌 Congratulations👌

Incredible, Mr. Rob! I swear, you should have 743k subscribers not 74,3k! The world needs to see your unique perspective on Tasmania - it is truly captivating. I love your gold trips and the recent film-style posts that you've shared with us are just breathtaking. Keep up the incredible work, young man! It's an honour to be able to live your adventures! Best wishes, always. ~~ Ray

Wowzer! I learnt so much here! Thanks for sharing!❤

Great haul!! Thanks for sharing 🙏❤️🌲

As soon as you said coffee I hit pause 😊. Between interested and old I forgot 😂. Coffee ya,ya that's it coffee!🎉🎉🎉 Good morning and nice job Rob 👍 Such a beautiful place, it reeks of ancient...

Rob, you’re an artist. i i live your videos for the way YOU make them. I love the artistry you bring that few others do. You make documentaries, not short 15 minute youtube videos. Use your music. Ignore the neadrathols who have never experienced the beauty of your artistry. Keep exploring, keep sharing what you find. Most of all keep sharing in Your own way. You are spectacular at it!

What a fascinating trip. I think the scenery is just as eye watering as the gold. Well done on a great trip.

Love the way you filmed the tally at the end! Great gold!

just amazing storytelling and cinematography

you actually have more money in your hands, as some good sized nuggets would sell for more than their weight

Thank you for making the video! It was funn to watch. Greetings from holland

Thats an incredible video and really well shot well done dude 🤜🤘

Weigh-ins Rock, thanks 😊. Nice work again 👍. Cheers 🍻

Nice haul mate, I think you need to sharpen your scraper pick tip! Worn it out! Also you need to refine your panning technique, the riffles use them. Use a big stick or log to direct your water flow/dam wall. Cheers mate enjoy seeing you back out there. ❤it😊

Gold is actually 3.7 times heavier than magnetite(black sand). I like to keep my water level at least half as deep as the sides of my sluice, and flowing at a rate of about 2 seconds in and out. If the black sand is getting washed out, then lift up the outflow end to slow it down a bit. I also like to use a glass jar as a way to view what is in the sluice clearly. Can't wait to get back at it in N. California.

Well done my brother. That sure looks like alot cooler way of finding gold than swinging a detector over here in Western Australia's 40 plus heat at the moment..😢😢😢😢😢😢

Excellent , so Happy for you. Hey Rob Look up Pocket hunting in the quartz I learned from an Old timer for almost 300K worth in one set of pockets.

Awesome Rob not a bad haul in a magic place keep them coming.

Great videos. All the best from Oatlands, Tassie..

Definitely woodboogers watching you out there in that forest !! Awesome stuff though wish I could find gold in Pennsylvania!! Be careful out there sir keep finding them nugs!!

Great episode! Reminded me of Tom Massie's old Gold Fever program!

Hope you’re all right! Waiting for another video! Love the channel

I love how it's a survival video and gold hunting lol some of the most videos I watch lol

You are indeed an expert when it comes to forests and looking for gold. I salute you, a profession from Indonesia, friend, warm greetings

Rob, has anyone ever told you that you are a legend? Well... you are a legend mate.

At 19:22 that piece has a face on it. Nice to see you out there again Rob, keep up the good fight.

Hey Rob, another great video. I think an old miner cached some of his gear in that spot and left the shovel that way to make it easy to find when he came back. Just a thought. Might be fun to metal detect around that spot and see if any thing else cool pops out. Cheers and thanks for sharing your adventures. Can't hunt for gold like that in Texas, I am jealous as hell! LOL

Wow, that is some very Very nice gold! Nice haul!

That old shovel etc looked stashed,God knows what else could be tucked away there,cool video great stuff,all the best.

My compliments on the underwater camera work, looks clearer than the air!

Another awesome 31 minutes 💯 Thank you The only downside for me is when the music plays louder than your voice. I love the nature sounds. The music does tend to drown out your voice.

Great trip, fine chunky gold bits! I thought those orchids were only on Flinders.

Great video, i feel like a skinny stainless wire brush would help to dislodge nuggies or clean out the crevices

Ohh yeahh been waiting for you to get to using that sluice box, this is my therapy

Great gold mate. For as much as I am in to gold I definitely live in the wrong area lol. Again great gold. Totally Epic for sure.

"Nice little.. shit" I am laughing so much right now 😂😂😂

Peter and Donna from Corrina love your videos keep up the good work,

Great Haul Rob! Youd be able to stop working and rely on gold prospecting 2 days a week if you could reliably find that much

Woohoo been looking forward to this one Rob

Congratulations! Looks like a good time!

I would definitely do a weigh in on each video. Stay tuned for part two is really annoying to most viewers. You did great and got some beautiful gold to boot.

Epic trip, as usual your filming and editing are so appreciated. 👍🏻💥🍔

The rabbit piece looks like a little bulldog to me 😂 Great stuff

I remember my River prospecting days. The wetsuit wasn't due to temperature, but stopping march flies from stinging my arse and back. Do you run a 3mm or 5mm suit? Some suits can really cut in depending how you sit and lean over.

Just caught yourself a subscriber. Wandered over to your channel after a Dan Hurd video.

Love the videos mate, drop the end of the sluice down for more flow , ideally you want a 9 to 11 degree drop. I’m a bit worried you’re going to cause a mad rush of people to crash that pristine forest. Never lets them know what your true take is , we won’t mind , keeping your personal safety first. There are too many crazy people in this world today. (Like Levi) lol😂 God bless , stay safe and keep it Shiny 🍻

If that shovel really is 100 yrs old then it is a great find and souvenir for you. I'm amazed at the preservation as I'm assuming it's a temperate rain-forest climate? A minor miracle for iron/steel to survive that long outdoors? Please publish your research / dating results on this lovely piece of history. And keep living the dream!

Your Killin it mate well done!

My fave moment has got to be your reaction as you dropped that speckled egg.

Bro love your vids so glad you hitting it big

Great stuff my friend! A little more water speed over the sluice would really help clean in out with less material to sort though when it comes time to pan.

I love your office, watching from sunny california,

I enjoy watching your video. Great!

Faster flow for sluice id say its also about angle and water flow helps it not get clogged so flakes dont flutter out

So I come home from work and this is so relaxing.

It was an enjoyable watch as per usual. I keep meaning to ask you. Over here in the uk we call the small stones Gravel. And I keep hearing you say Gravels. Is this a local dialect thing or just all over Taz

Awesome haul mate. Well done.

Shovel’s the number 1 cruel piece of evidence in a crime. During a confession, tells em EXACTLY where it is for deal…. NO DEAL! 😳

I thought I saw a NUGGY in fast motion😂😮. I must have..Ya training my eye.

Really interesting footage. Curious if you brought the old shovel home for your collection.

What’s funny is years ago people traveled through mountain ranges from spring to spring remotely, and then came across an untapped place. Where a person can leave with 30 lbs of gold in a stream. While nowadays people only go to places that others have already found gold. So they go there and find scraps. These places are still untapped in some box canyon nobody ever walks up etc.

That shovel looks useful. You could tune it back up and find some more gold with it.

Best gold discovery, friend Very useful and inspiring ...Good luck Greeting from Indonesian traditional gold prospecting 🇮🇩⚒️⛏️💎😍😍💗👍👍

Blows my mind that you can spend all day working on such little food.

Gold prices are Sky-Rocketing 💰

You ever think of going to NZ and doing the same thing? Would be a cool adventure..i enjoyed the video...😀👍

woow, so much gold man, i will join you there soon

Watching you sluice I knew it wouldn’t take long for you to get bored with it lol

I love watching your videos, Rob. They are calming and relaxing whether you're prospecting in or out of the water. The unique beauty of nature runs through all of us to a certain extent. I imagine myself listening to the birds, while watching the water for hours. Thanks for sharing this with all of us. As far as the gold you find, it's impressive every time you 'name' the nuggets and weigh them. I guessed over the biggest nugget's weight at 1.5 grams. It is very difficult for me to guess a weight based on a view through a camera's lens and the colors of the water. Which actually is the basis for my question (no one can call it a stupid question because I am asking it 🤔). Why is the waters of Tazmania so clear, yet so yellow? I'm screaming at my phone for you to see a piece of gold, when it wasn't, and vice versa. So, why is the water stained? Iron? I would love to know. In the meantime, I send blessings from Alabama ❤️

Rob great video mate. I have a question for you. Will there be gold in Scottish rivers.???

On your sluice box, aim at one inch drop per foot of sluice. If you run a 4 ft or 1.2 meters you would have 4" or 10.16 cm drop.

You should metal detect that whole area. I would. If I ever get to Tasmania, I'll get in touch with you to see if we can explore together.

That last crevice is what dreams are made of

Looks like coastal Pacific Northwest of the USA to me -- until I see the tree ferns and the podocarps, and other remnants of Gondwana. 😊 ... bet there are some interesting _Psilocybe_ species up in there. Wish we still had some streams like that here in Oregon, gold-wise. Much larger population = hammered streams. Closest drainage like that to me would probably be in some very remote part of B.C.

29:27 I’ll guess 1.12 g back to the vid…well I got lucky on that one lol I’m never that close great couple of days in the beautiful tassie wilderness not enough flow in the sluice for sure and I reckon you realized it’s a lot more work than sniping lol (different muscle set anyway) thanks for sharing see you on the next one 👍🏼👊🏼

Aussie Rob, giving Pioneer Pauly a for his money . Awesome to see another Aussie kicking goals.🤠👍

Ok, you convinced me... Now I have to buy a plane ticket, from Toronto...
