Scottish Gold - New PB 

Cheers man, thanks for helping with the algorithm and it’s good to know it’s getting out there in the recommended videos. It’s a new found hobby of mines, lots of trial and error finding these places, but always a lovely day out in the highlands of Scotland.

Thank for your support, it’s a beautiful location. Finding gold was just a bonus.

Thanks Paige, it was a great day out 🙌

Hi Big Kev, thanks for your support and comment, really appreciate that buddy. 🙌

Even though it’s a tiny piece you never forgot the feeling of seeing gold that you found in the pan for the first time. Best of luck 🤞

Thanks Daz, I’ve still a lot to learn about creating good dams and preparing the set up for the sluice, I think I was just to keen to process pay dirt than actually spend the time to set up properly. Like I said in the video I think the sluice I have is great, but totally impractical. Especially for carrying into a spot along with all my other gear! But there’s no motivator quite like getting gold.

Thank you, do you think the sluices angle was to steep?

@@NuggetNinjaAdventures i dont think so but bottom was way to deep in the water

@@Glass596 thank you, taken note for next time 🙏

​@@NuggetNinjaAdventuresyou are very welcome

Thanks man, I didn’t try damming the water. I did try to control the water flow with large boulders, however it’s an art in itself trying to set a sluice up properly.

Thanks Wendy, I don’t think I set mines up up the best tbh. However was still catching gold. Also if I was to buy another one, I’m going for a slightly smaller sluice as the one I have is maybe just a bit too big to be carrying on longer walks in.

@@NuggetNinjaAdventures I think your sluice is great. I went for the smaller one for cost, convenience and gain confidence. There's a few videos out there with great tips on setting them up.

@@wendypritch I’ve actually just ordered a smaller adventure sluice, as I also carry my sniping gear and some locations I venture to can be a long walk in so trying to cut the weight down. I do like the big sluice for processing more material. However I think on this particular part of the river it wasn’t the best position for the sluice of that size. It’s all experience and learning from my mistakes. I’m still a rookie prospector, however looking back at my first video I’m seeing progress on how much I’ve learnt. Hope you’re as lucky as I was with the Dream Mat.

Thanks man, yeah I’ve recently invested in a gravel pump. It is a lot faster and less chance of losing material.

Amazing, thanks for your support! Do you prospect in Canada?

Thanks man, it’s just experience. I’ve still a lot to learn.

Thanks man 🙌

I did see some small fish, but I don’t fish 😅

I was surprised too! I’m still to earn my name finding a nugget, but small flakes will do for now.

All gold found technically belongs to the king! It’s just a hobby of mines. Not for financial gain.

Thanks for your support! The sniping method is my favourite way of prospecting too. Although my short experience in prospecting I’ve found more gold processing through panning and sluicing. Hopefully my sniping skills are required again in the near future. There’s something special about seeing the gold underwater before suffering it up.
