Tired of finding only flood gold. Set out to find larger gold. 

Nice take Gary! I love seeing you smile! 😁

Thanks for the video . There was a time when I would hike for hrs. just to fish a spot like that for native brook trout . Got the big C. about 4 yrs ago , now I'm lucky to swing a metal detector in the town park . And yes I'm envious , keep making these videos I love watching them . Thanks again !

I hope to put this lesson to use this week on a Colorado stream. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Gary, I watch a ton of videos about finding gold and I'm a newbie to it down here in Arizona. You're videos are so very well put together and informative. The time you put into teaching on your videos is simply outstanding. I love that there's no fluff or hoopla, simply straight forward knowledge and teaching. I just subscribed to your channel. I've been finding flood gold in the washes but it is a ton of work vacuuming and cleaning the bedrock. I'm ready to start hunting for something larger and this video is awesome information. Thank you for what you do, I'm a fan.

Gary, I've said it before, but you are such a wonderful teacher. I really think you missed your calling. Keep up the good work my friend and may God richly Bless you and your family.

Best lesson in panning I've watched. It all made sense. You've won Me as a fan .thankyou

I’m gonna have to start hitting the big gold too!! I never thought I’d be tired of flood gold but after seeing those bigger peices you’ve sold me to dig lower :D I like that you showed the heavy dark gravels in your pan. That’s a top knotch tip for people who don’t have the experience to know ... I swear by the ironstone gravels lol. That is for another awesome video to hold me over til I can fly up there and scratch around 🤙

Drop water DROP!!! Can't wait until Winter here. Thanks for the videos.

TWO TOES. there's a few of you guys that go out and bust your butts hunting and teaching about gold Thanks !!! for living our dreams for those of us that can't get out due to health and other things ,about a month ago I won a small pan , 30x loop and a small bag of panning dirt it had some fossils and GOLD all small stuff but with the 30 X loop they look like nuggets I have spent a few hours of dream come true time just like your videos !Thanks TANK

4.83 grams is about $233.!! Not a bad day at all! A terrific day, and a matter of fact!!

Wow Gary, you make building that retirement fund look easy....Great video

Another great video Gary. Nice nuggets. Wow that steam was rippin! Hope your arm is doing good.

You are a great teacher . I like your cause and effect method . Anyway you could do a video about your tools and how you pack them around ? I also like how you just get to the point no jibber jabber . keep up the good work

You sure you found enough nails? WOW! Excellent video and great gold!

Nice to see you find some good gold.

Great video

Nice finds,was that area already claimed or was it a random spot u chose?

very slick stones may be gems.

Hey man, what are up to? Something's up, this is the. Second time in a row that you have skipped a weekend. Is everything ok? You didn't break another limb I hope, well hope all is well and you can continue killing it in the gold fields.

We can hear you easily. Those mics pick up well and you are ahead of the background noise.

Awesome day of fun in the sun.

Great fun, but lots of work🤗

Awsome gold

How do you find out where prospecting is allowed and how do you know if someone has a claim where you want to look

Use a hand suction

yes, FINALLY got a nice chunk of yellar ~ yeaaa ~

I really enjoy your videos for the gold they produce but most especially for the knowledge you impart.

Two toes gets more gold in 1 day than I do in one year.... so depressing but thanks for sharing. Its videos like this that keep me searching

You are quite the superstar Gary! You work really hard, long hours at it; you deserve more! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. You are really appreciated.

In this one video you have explained everything that has taken me months to observe in the wild, and then added some more! Thank you!

Great Gary ! Like the way you find gold. Your like a investigator ! The clues will lead you ! Thanks for another great video Gary 👍🇺🇸😎🍀⚒

I have been wanting to go out for bigger gold for a while now but really didn't know what to look for, as I'm used to going for flood gold. Thanks! Now I can go out with this knowledge and see if I can find me some chunky stuff! Have an awesome week and see you on the RU-vid soon!

Gary you really know your gold! Enjoyed watching No BS down to business smart man doing what he loves in Retirement.

You are awesome! I'm in Dallas Texas and only wish I lived near a location where I can start prospecting. Never do it and always been dreaming of getting into it as a hobby. Thanks again for your vids and great lessons/tips.

_"Guru"_ is the Sanskrit word (roughly) for Masterly Expert Teacher who Dispenses Knowledge. I'm thinking that no other word will do. From here in UK, we say _Thank you Guru Gary, for dedicating so much of your time, both in the hills and on "the next morning", to patiently and skillfully sharing the biggest treasure of all : knowledge._ Thank you.

Love your videos! I spent this weekend up in the Downieville area trying to get some larger gold myself but walked away with almost nothing but a busted power steering system from the crazy dirt roads out that way haha. I'll find a 1 gram+ nugget one of these trips!

Gary, I havnt watched you in a while and after watching this I wonder why! Thanks, you are awesome and you always manage to give me a smile or a chuckle or two, and you make me jealous.....peace brother

One of my favorite videos so far! What a great find! I don't think you can get this wisdom from any book. Thanks for sharing Gary! :)

I agree with Top Cat,you are a detective when it comes to finding gold.

Dry, self deprecating humour, mixed with masterful, hard won insight. Thanks Gary for another entertaining and informative adventure.

Viewer 1,623 approves this video bigly! Nice result on that nugget quest, Thank You as always for filming it Gary!

One of your best videos as far as describing what’s on your mind when reading that river. Almost 5 grams too, helluva day Gary!!

I’ve really enjoyed watching all your videos Gary, good to see you getting bigger gold again! Your helicopter/sniping videos were super exciting to watch, thank you for all the effort you’ve put into making them

Howdy Garry 🤠 I’ll be back after I finish watching the video

with all those nails you could open a hardware store.

Standing with my sign in hand at the end of ur driveway >> “ Plumber will work” for free “ for one trip to the hills with Two Toes !!! Nice video Gary ....

Best videos on RU-vid! Thanks Gary👍

Congrats on the nuggies. Good job! What you did show is that there can be nuggets in canyons and smooth bedrock. The old timers believed gold got crushed and flushed out of canyons and that smooth bedrock was a poor trap. They would have avoided such spots.

Now that's some nice chunkie gold there Gary great work! The low water is great but I forgot about how brutal the sun is this time of year lol.

Love the education you put into your videos - thank you! I'm hoping to get my family out and panning soon... and actually find something (so far all our trips just end up playing in the creek without any gold) - still fun, but no color :)

New subscriber Two Toes as I found you today. Me, I'm a 72 year old guy who used to play in the gold fields as it is where you find it not how much as we have god days and great days and the bad days are when we can't go. I think about how many pieces had to go over that rock for one to call home. I hope you find a ton of it some day, who knows, you might be driving a new rig yet

Really nice pieces Two Toes. There is nothing like that here, what you have and can do by looking for gold i mean It is really cool. No gold to be found here. At least i never seen or heard of it around here and I'm 50 this year. Love to be beside you looking for gold. Dreaming is gona have to do for now.GOOD TIMES

Congrats, Gary, on those nuggets! I absolutely love your videos, so informative, and so exciting to see the gold finds! Thanks for all your efforts in making these great vids!

Always makes this old guy happy to see a new video you put out Gary. 🍻

Greetings Gary; Now that your injury is more or less fully healed, will your video production go to a new vid every week? Will the vids go back to being 28 min. each?

Well, you really nailed that one! Nice chunky gold. You had a very good day. Man that river is fast. There's some pretty big bolders it moves. Heavy heavies. Thanks Gary, really enjoyed.

Big gold! I loved every second of this one! Go big or go home I say!

I am really enjoying all the tips and knowledge a bunch of you guys share.

Its not are fault it was getting late. I want to see a 2nd part to that one nice area.

Noogies is the way forward.I know what you mean about just finding small stuff then buzzing when you find bigger bits.🌟😉👌

Ya buddy cool adventure and good tips! My creek i frequent is like that box canyon not much flood gold but when ya find some usually pick em up!

So far there's 5 jealous people... Great job.

Your video’s are awesome! I learn something on every viewing. I really appreciate and value your adventures.

PioneerPauly told me about you! I enjoyed this video, and like how you teach, too. Nice finds!

To be in crusted in rust. Thank You for the info. 👍👍

you know Gary , i thoroughly enjoy your shows. thanks for the information on finding bigger gold. i listen and sometimes watch parts over again until i get all the secrets.

By the way if he was out there for 8 hours he was making around 28 dollars an hour. Very nice

On a trip to Alaska, Juneau, up on Gold Creek my plan was about the same as yours. I looked up on high bank shelves that trapped gravel. I found 3 pieces of gold in 10 minutes. I had to pack up and get back to the cruise ship! I had to turn in my pack shovel to the pursers office because they thought it could be used as a weapon. (well, so can a bottle of catchup, I guess). I had some gold to show off at the dinner table. 2005.

Always nice to see mr two toes chargin aboot the criks doin a mighty fine job there pilgrim..😁

So..5 grams and 500 dollars. I'm going to quit my day job!

Thank you for an amazing video. You are an amazing teacher. Again thank you

Whats up two toes? My name is no-toes or you can call me Dale. I lost all of my toes to frostbite. Why do they call you two-toes? I subscribed to the channel at 25,000, congrats.

Seems like it would be fun yo set up a base camp there and stay for a week or ten days, no travel time and a chance to really know the lay of the land.

Well gosh Gary if your so enthusiastic about fixing that plumbing I have a hole slew of stuff to do that you can come get enthusiastic over! LOL Another great video and I look forward to your next one.

Great Gold, good luck with the plumbing, thanks eh

When map dowsing, my cursor got *abruptly stopped* around 39.919389, -121.531406. (I also heard anomalous sounds near me!). 39.823987, -121.542903; That's a 2nd one; If anyone's in the area - I'd check these out, or head over to Flea Valley/Creek; If you're wondering why I'm saying this, well, I'm surprisingly closely related to Noreen Renier. If my hand keeps sweeping the mousepad but my cursor has stopped, that's a convincing dowsing "hit". Sometimes I get a camera icon on my screen. I'm *confident* there's something to find at these GPS Locations.

I never prospected but now that I'm living in my van and in Arizona I might give it a try. I've been hopping around from BLM site to BLN site all across the west out here. I like the metal detector approach but not sure where to go to search. It's the start of the rainy season here in the Phoenix area from what I hear. This is the first rain I've seen since I left Michigan 25 days ago. Saw some flowing gulches on the ride down I17 from Rim Rock. Maybe that rain is washing some gold down the mountains? Not sure about the rules for prospecting or where to look legally, but I'll keep researching. Thanks for the tips. Any advice on a metal detector that will do the job without spending a fortune? Subscribed. And thanks.

Love the long video! This was great thank you sir :)

I worked that spot last year so that must be flood Nuggets !!!!!

My wife and I are traveling to the Lake Tahoe area wednesday and then on to Yosemite later in the week. I’m thinking about taking my metal detector [equinox 800]. Is there somewhere I could go to do some gold detecting? I’ve never gold detected before but I’ve been told that the nox does a fairly decent job in gold bearing areas. I guess first of all, do you think it worth my trouble to bring along the detector? I’ve been coin and relic hunting for over 40 years. Total novice on the gold. I also have a pan and might try to hit a creek while there. Your videos are terrific learning tools and I’ve been watching them all day! Thank you!

Thanks for the information very good video

An LED flashlight would be a huge benefit for crevicing. I have one that is 1000 lumen and uses the 18650 battery.

Best video yet Gary, keep up the great work watching from Australia

Hey brother, I'm not sure what I like most about your vids; the GOLD finding or the guessing where you are going to end the vid? Bahahaha! Love both either way! I ai wish that I could take a trip with you. But, until the company that I work for gets a newer truck(DEF system), they won't run me into Cali.

Nice video Gary..... Like your attitude toward life and prospecting..... Keep it up ..... Thanks for your videos and time ...... Manny

👍👍👏 thank you for another informative video that we can all learn from. Im hoping to utilize everything I learn from your videos here soon!

You need a large crow bar and a sledge hammer to move large boulders out to INSPECT UNDERNEATH THEM~! Or better yet some dynamite.

I am in Eastern Washington. I have found an unrecorded gold mine. An old timer, born in 1900, who told me "there is a lost gold mine up that creek that fed his family during the depression years, back in the 1930s". I have finally found the old gold mine near the creek and his camp site. If you are interested, please contact me and we can go from there. Thank you for your time... Gene Dionne

It is a wonderful video..i love the place..fresh water..fresh air..fresh gold..congratulation for finding some colors..i got excited too. I hope you will find more colors..take care..God bless your venture..Amen

I'm really enjoying your videos! By the way. If you want pay the travel expenses I'll come out and take care of that plumbing for you. After 45 yrs. as a master plumber I have retired and moved to N. Ga. where one of the first gold rushes were !

That was awesome !!! I was just thinking the same thing about that crusty washer and low and behold you were sure to mention it. Great bit of advise sir !!!! Great take for the day too

Wow the big boulder right in front of you leaning towards you looks like a giant carved turtle head, I was watching some other videos where the native people, I'm not sure what nationality, would mark their treasures with giant carved out turtles.

Thanks Gary, I learn't lots from this video. we appreciate you sharing your Knowlege. Cheers Mate.

What is your take on people that use an 8000lb pound hydrualic tool to distroy bed rock .... don't get me wrong I like the way you crevice but to destroy Bedrock like that just doesn't seem right

Nice Davey Tree Service shirt.... You be da man, Gary. New sub and lovin' the content. How do pin pointers compare to a detector for crevicing , etc?

great vid!! excuse me for asking,but how much do you make with 4.83gr??can you do this for a living or is it just a hobby?

Half way into your vid where you pull out that nice chunk with your bent neadle nose pliers I pray I find a chunk like that some day.! I have a gm1000.

Another Great video, Gary. Not a bad day at all man. very good... Have a great day and may you always have that, Flash In Your Pan.

Almost 5 grams. That is pretty darn good for doing something you enjoy. It is late 2023 now so that gold would be worth almost $300.

I'm wondering why Gary doesn't just run the gold detector over those crevices he is painstakingly digging out? Wouldn't that tell you strait away if there is anything in there?
