I had a day to spend metal detecting "Nugget Bar' searching for those amazing gold nuggets I find at the "Dream Claim". I had a day to kill while I was getting the site ready for this year's machine operation. and I though what better way to kill that time than finding a gold nugget!

It's called fishing, not catching, and it's called panning, not golding. In any venture there is times of plenty and times of scarcity. As long as you're having fun it'll never be called work.

@mary-ruthflores4107 15 дней назад

So true, well said!

@marktemplin1159 15 дней назад

And a bad day fishing is always better than a good day at work,,,,👍👍✌️

@facel2 16 дней назад

lead wire is called twistons a brand name. it's a type of fishing weight. it comes in a pack like book Matches you just twist off a piece like a match and wrapped it around your fishing line very handy and Easy to carry

@robwilliams287 16 дней назад

that was my first thought as well.

@elyworsley3764 15 дней назад

I use it fly fishing. It doesn't cut your line like split shot.

i had the pleasure of having him as one of my teachers in high school. And then when i heard about his channel, i had to follow it and watch his videos because he's just a cool cat that people could learn so much from 🙂. Hope you have a great day, Dan, and happy gold hunting.

@Vitali_Osandor 15 дней назад

God, I can imagine him being a really awesome teacher!

@AaronTheViking250 15 дней назад

@Vitali_Osandor he was a lot of fun and his sense of humor definitely made his class fun 🙂

@laurasnyder5926 16 дней назад

Dan we still like to watch wheter you nugget or not. The scenery and you are wonderful! This is the real look at prospecting! Thanks!!!

@davidoconn9352 16 дней назад

Thanks Dan, for taking us along. I had fun ... I'd love to go fishing in that stream it is beautiful!

@robertslusser6753 15 дней назад

Fishing, for me at least, is where the "gold" is.

Dan's videos are the reason I went out and actually found garnets and gold in my area.

@ElyottRyan 16 дней назад

@CrazyChipmunk78 16 дней назад

Honestly showing that you don't get gold ever single time makes your videos more real, and it shuts the haters up for a sec....

@atadventures2336 16 дней назад

No nuggets but not skunked! Even with out big gold it was still full of golden content. Thanks for taking us on that adventure with you Dan

@bentationfunkiloglio 16 дней назад

Haha, the auto-generated closed caption wrote "pecker" whenever Dan said "picker." Certainly, makes the video a bit more humorous than intended. Gorgeous scenery!

@rodhenderson5635 16 дней назад

I wonder how often bears walk up on Dan when he has his nose in the dirt?

@TBMAvenger 16 дней назад

Your honesty about the business of prospecting, video production, and time spent is very interesting. Most people don't realize the work that goes into a production behind the scenes and our own mental critique on ourselves. Nice work as always... Stay safe.

@beansdad70 16 дней назад

@dondavis5633 16 дней назад

@susanturcotte3176 16 дней назад

It may not have been an overflowing pan of nuggets, but the value of the scenery is priceless! 😍 I could spend days just relaxing with my feet in the water. Absolutely gorgeous, Dan. So, you're a magnet for stalkers, Dan? The doe with her fawns were looking to steal some of your gold and sell it for food. 🫣🤣 Thank God she knew that your truck was not a drive thru for burgers! 🙄🤣🤣🤣 I have security footage of a doe with triplet fawns (very rare) for 2 back to back years. It's too back the city and bank destroyed the habitat.😭 No where for the wildlife to go. Sad. Thank you for sharing, as always. We appreciate you so much and can't wait to see the cumulative weigh in! You may need to buy an all-terrain wheelbarrow just in case the weight of your gold is more than 400 Oz !!! Tee hee! I wish. You wish. Seriously, I hope you have an incredible weigh-in my friend! Blessings from Alabama ❤️

@xyzabc4574 16 дней назад

Dan, I watch these videos 90% for you and 10% for the gold you can show at the end of the video. You shouldn't get into that stress zone.

A bad day of panning, fishing or hunting(that comes in many forms animals, fossil, minerals, artifacts etc.)is still better than a good day at work!😂😎 We are lucky to live in BC, great content as always Dan!😎👍

@El-Diablo-Blanco 15 дней назад

I appreciate you showing not every hole has gold. If this were easy every one would be rich. Your a professional, at least more so than most, and even you struggle sometimes. Its part of the Dream. Its part of what makes it so alluring.

@VegasOriginal 16 дней назад

Dan, I absolutely love your videos. I'm a very amateur prospector, maybe been out panning 4 or 5 times. I've definitely spent more on my equipment than I've ever made, but its so fun and relaxing just to get out in nature and try your luck in the pan. You've got the right attitude! Keep huntin' and I hope your Dream Claim comes true! :D

@dougbarton4668 16 дней назад

That lead looks like sinker material. A rubber tube attached to your fishing line, and the lead is pushed into the tube.

@Cdr_Mansfield_Cumming 15 дней назад

I love your enthusiasm Dan. I am disabled after an accident that leaves me bed bound in my Midlands, UK home. You are my proxy in getting out into nature. I love watching your videos.

@shanemcguire170 9 дней назад

Dan, just a thought... while you're digging out the rocks... you might take home a bucket of sand and find out how much placer good is there on your claim. Normally where there's nuggets, placer is sure to follow.

@johnjamieson6368 16 дней назад

@Bobal27 16 дней назад

Spoiler warning: I liked this vid more than a video where you find tons of gold, so I hit like. I’m not saying I like when you find almost nothing, but your attitude on days that miss for you is awesome. Keep being you and having fun, and I hope you have more fun next time. Nuggets of fun. With more nuggets of gold.

@MikeBaxterABC 15 дней назад

1:46 Whenever Dan says "Nugget Bar" .. I minarine it's like a big all you can eat, salad bar, but with nuggets, and you just walk around it slowly, with your Gold Pan, and select some medium sized Gold Nuggets, maybe a few quartz included, a couple odd shaped nuggets, and sprinkle all pickers on the top! Then go to your table and weigh them all. :)

@ryanlewis4919 16 дней назад

@MikeBaxterABC 15 дней назад

24:57 I LOVE the "Dan-didn't-find-gold-today" Videos!! ??? WHY??? 100% proof!! Dan never fakes finding gold! :)

@tjs114 16 дней назад

Those little flat sided lead wires reminds me of the squeeze on weights my dad and uncle used for fly fishing in the 1960s and 1970s. They carried a roll of 'wire' with them and cut little pieces off and used their pliers to compress it on the fishing line. Do people fly fish on that river?

@rambozo_fpv176 15 дней назад

I always enjoy the Dan Hurd Prospecting videos. I've gone fishing many times and didn't catch any fish. I usually enjoyed the experience anyway. Dan and Family certainly make bank on some of the Ocean Picture Stones and from RU-vid.

@wldtrky38 9 дней назад

Beautiful area, thanks for taking us along 👍👍

@SalmonKing52 3 дня назад

Interesting that you’re not finding a lot of fines along with those pickers Dan. Like you, for me it’s the love of just being out there more than I gotta find the gold. Great video Dan, one of your best (IMHO). Keep them coming !

@lazyjackass77 10 дней назад

@kc8rbk73 12 дней назад

Dan could post a video of just that beautiful river flowing and the sound of the water. It would probably get a billion views. We put the fireplace or camp fires on our TV all the time when we aren't watching anything else. That water looks amazing but I bet it's ice cold.

@lt.guppypatrollt.guppypatrol 16 дней назад

@scuss2 16 дней назад

I like them both too. Big difference between Frank and Dan. Frank says at the beginning of his videos "you got to be crazy" and he isn't a-feared to go into any mine or rappel into one. Dan on the other hand Doesn't like to enter "caves". I'll side with Dan and stick to the easy way of finding Gold. Hey! Let's not forget Jeff Williams as I think at times that Dan and Jeff graduated from the same Geology University.

Hey Dan. I believe the lead wire is for fishing...... I have used similar looking lead weight a while back while fishing. It was so you could wrap the lead wire on the string about a foot or so from the bait so it will float off the bottom a little bit. Thank for the videos. Always enjoyable Sir
