that's a sweet set up on your gold cube!

Well explained and a phenomenal product. Thanks for sharing and thanks Mike for keeping us prospectors on top of the blk sands 👊✌️😆🇺🇸⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️

Sweet sharing, nice work & excellent cinematography 👊✌️😆

Picked up one, excited to try it out. Excellent cinematography & editing. Thanks 😅👊✌️🇺🇸

Cow Creek has been good for gold through the years. I wish that Windy Creek would have had the same kind of gold. Oh well. For some of you that have heard stories about big stinky critters with hair all oner their bodies and walked upright like men that lived around there, yes, they were around there. Some people called them bigfoot. Around Glendale we usually just called them hippies.

you asked the crab wheres the gold my dad would ask the crab where do you live lol

Of course they want money!

with my experience with dream mat I've come to the conclusion it just isn't what the hype makes it out to be I use the gray the green and micro purple and unless you classify it to 1/8 it just fills up and clogs the cells and gold blows out you can't beat expanded metal and moss with v rib or goldhog matting I feel I wasted my money buying dream mats

Band name?

your just a 3 to 4 mills from the mother load. con tack me and I well show you where

Hey here’s a video where is how you something cool, but I don’t actually show you…. Clickbait bs

hello sir, I just bought this combo product for France. I'm also a little disappointed. Much more detailed instructions from the seller are missing! . I notice that if the flow is too slow, the rifles open their mouths, if the flow is faster, the rifles open their mouths, in return the fine gold flakes tend to leak from what I have observed. I saw that it had a slope of 9 to 9.5%. It remains very difficult for the 2 smaller rifles! the vortex should work better. I will add that the carpet I ordered is 8x36, it does not respect the dimensions! 36 goes to 34 so really 2inch difference 😂

How much does that cost ?? I wanna buy a sluice

Works great, felt is much better.

I would say the Mollala, but the gold is too good. 😊 Let's see, what else is "near" Portland -- Washougal?

I am looking at one of these hand dredges myself, like you, here in Australia, no pumps are allowed, but Victoria you are allowed Highbanking and mini trommels, how long that will last is anyones guess. Well done on the gold and great video

Destroying stream beds looks like fun.

Helps when you put the gold there first 😂👍

Hay, i know that spot! My friend Louis is always there for me when I need a quick fix for the fever.

1957, good year.

"Tell me where the gold is!" lol

Great video, thanks for posting

Private claim or not, as of 2017 the Rogue River is part of the salmon protection plan, and dredging is illegal. What say you?

What if you left it the way you first had it set up with less water flowing through. Having gold situp in the flair seems like a good thing.

Which river was it? I live in Yacolt Washington and it looks like this. Great video.

Nice picker. Hope you get some more.

Nice video

Time to put that Dakota Fred signed bucket on the shelf as a saver. :) He was a legend. Great vid. Keep it up.

Can you link me to your magnet?

Vickie and Ryan's gold adventures here. On tight budget, and I traded a to heavy and bulky for me dredge for a 1 1/2" highbanker dredge combo. Wanted to purchase a combo dream matt but, $ and taxes and shipping stopped me. I already had a big heavy long dream matt Incan never get pitched right nor have enough water flow to use. Could just be me. So I decided with the highbanker extra water flow I would cut the matt I already owned but never use. Surprise it was exactly the right size. And it is the big not combo dream matt. Was happy to hear someone already discovered what I was wondering before I lost any gold. Thanks. Appreciate the test.

interesting video, will be trying the spoon test at a couple of places i have been going too, here in the desert i am jealous of everyone that has oceans and rivers to supply unlimited water.

Miners moss is the ticket. Has been for years.

The way i see it . Dream mats are the best general use mats. you still need to match size to the material Size and water flow or use multimats . if you know your specific needs and will be repeatedly dealing with the same or similar situations , goldhog matting will let you dial in your boxes for those situations. no matting is perfect. Most people suggest a saftypan when possible. Dredges are very inefficiant because of their short wide boxes and always lose gold. the only real fix is making a much longer box .

You don’t find flattened nuggets… try it again

I bet this is a game changer on getting gold

I live near a Beach in Oregon and brother I see exactly what you are seeing. What's your best way to extract this beach gold? I see you using a couple of gold cubes so I would assume they work well for this type of deposit. There is a story of two old timers who found their fortune and glory from a beach now called Whiskey Run. They made history and the gold rush was on!

I’ve been mining up here in Alaska for over 2 decades. There’s a reason why I don’t know a single person who uses any of the new fancy sluice mats. No one can prove any of these fancy sluice mats produce better than a properly setup sluice with standard metal riffles. Given that, do we go with a silicone (or whatever) fancy mat that, if it gets damaged, requires a long delay for a shipment from the lower 48 or do we go with metal riffles that can be easily replaced? Easy decision. As the old saying goes - if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.

I'd like to see a test with Tungston, I understand that it behaves just like gold in the sluice/pan

Be careful. Hand dredges are still considered "dredges" by the state.
