- In this one, we head over to a spot and do some wading to reach a pristine and untouched island! This pristine gravel bar was just loaded with fantastic finds! We unfortunately did not have too much time to spend on the island, but we found soo many amazing treasures in the little time that we had! I hope you enjoy this one, and I will have another one out very soon!

my endless cycle:
watch an agate hunting video
feel bad because i can't be there
watch another agate hunting video
again suffer because i can't be there...
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: I sure enjoy your videos! I feel like riding in your napsack looking over your shoulder. I feel like I'm 50 years younger... out rockhounding...feeling the wind....smelling the wild...enjoying the views! Makes me so happy!!!!
You are such an awesome personality, my 5 yr old granddaughter giggles the whole time watching you.
Thank you so much! That truly means so much!😄
I am not a rock hound but I do love rocks. I am unable physically to hunt rocks so watching you rock hounds is sort of a spectator sport for me. Thanks for putting your hunts online.
Awesome you show your gratitude love that 😊💙✌🏻🐶, thank you 😊
Just wanted to thank you for driving positivity into us all. Here are a few of your wonderful words from this video that really make a difference: Got a good feeling about this! Today’s the day! Spray this off. That’s amazing! There be Agates! Sweet! I found a good one! :) you are spreading rock love Theo!
off the charts adorable rockhunting video
These were beautiful today. Lots of bright colors and pattering.
We want to see them cut open 😍
Beautiful stones 👍
The blue flat one is a dream!
Greetings from Germany 🙋♂️
Do you ever have a keen eye to zero in on all those beauties. 👏 I can't chose a favorite they're all so beautiful.
Everyone shall fear the trifecta of the Yellowstone river there will be stories past down for generations to come😎
😂🤣dude i was so excited to find the trifecta in ONE rock! Just insane!
I would hate for you to have to step outside so I think that beautiful piece of Montana should just sit on my shelf. Very nice day!
@@jimlancaster6120 😂😂
Theo you remind me so much of my older brother James who passed away not too long ago, keep on keeping on young man👍✌️🪨💕
You need a digger to take all that home! //you are not cooperating, I keep pointing out rocks but you do not pick them up! What a beautiful shepherd, I had one too. Best dog ever. Bet your back hurts. But I concede you picked up some great rocks.
Totally agree!👍 nothing like shepherds; they really are just the beat dogs! And im sorry for not grabbing those rocks for ya!😂🤣must not have heard you! And yes the back was not happy, especially since this was actually the second hunt/video that day so my back was already pretty mad at me BEFORE this hunt started😂🤣
That trifacta is incredible. You should deem it, "Montana's Magnum Opus." So many stunning finds. 😍
All I can say is BEAUTIFUL
What a Rock Hunters dream location... I would of been like a kid in a sweet shop. Great finds 👍💕💕💕
Orange and pink agate was my favorite. Then all the rest of the rocks.
That orange and pink one is really awesome! Ive found pink agates, and agates with orange quartz pockets, but the two combined is just too cool!😄
I agree the trifecta stone was the best but jasper, jasper, jasper are all great. Never met a jasper I didn't like. The pet woods were amazing. Thanks for sharing. Woof to Floyd! Be safe and stay healthy 😷⚒🐶
Oh you can't go wrong with Yellowstone river jaspers!😄 such a rainbow of color! Thanks so much for watching!
Dude! That Yellowstone river trifecta stone is rad!
Right!?😄i was so dang excited!
I got excited along with you on that one! Your sense of glee and just pure joy over what you do is contagious. I told my husband I want a t-shirt that reads "droozy jaspagate" it just sounds like a statement lol! Love your videos, thanks for bringing us along 💕
@@cathw61 I believe that's a line from an old western ... "You, sir, ain't nothin' but a drewsy jaspagate". If not, it shoulda been!
I don't think I've ever seen an area with so many different colored perfect-sized rocks. I wonder how many great stones are just under the surface. Love this channel!
These stones are beautiful, inspirational and will bring awakening, but seriously, I love this.
It was one awesome day for sure!😄thanks so much for watching!
I would love to spend a day hunting with you! I just love rocks for personal use and envy all your finds!
Just realized you found the one rock, to bind them all....
😂🤣the one rock to rule them all!
@@TheoKellison do you still make necklaces?
That yellow jasper agate is mine blowing!
That was fun.
Beautiful agates. 🤩 Fantastic landscape.😍👍
He’s a rockin rock dog indeed.
He definitely is my rock hound!😄
I know this is an old video, but I wanted to comment anyway. You seemed to be so excited about everything you found and they were all awesome!! 😁♥️
Sitting here in south Texas tapping my foot in frustration.... grrrr ... How can I get to that island before Theo gets all the cool rocks?!!!
Just spectacular treasures! No argument from me about the trifecta 👍🏻👏🏻 very nice.
😂i promise there are more out there!🤣 with how huge the yellowstone is, there is definitely no shirtage of treasures to find! Plus runoff is on its way ti refreah everything again! Thanks si much fir watching!😄
@@TheoKellison Okay, I’ll trust you but if I come all the way up there in the future from south Texas and 😱 scream, “Where are all the agates!”
And the locals laugh and say, “There haven’t been agates here in years not since Theo Kellison built that mansion up on the hill for his wife, it’s the one made of all those pretty rocks!” 😲
🤣
@@barbymccain2436 You should have lots of pet wood in the creeks of South Texas.
@@angelsinthearchitecture7106 So much I built a massive fireplace out of them. Huge petrified logs that came from a rock quarry on the Brazos River. One of the coolest things I’ve ever done. Each one sparkled like it had a gazillion little stars in it 🥰❤️ ... but still, I’ve never seen anything like the river Theo’s walking. The colors in the rocks are spectacular!
@@barbymccain2436 Awesome. We worked over there and found some nice wood and as few artifacts.
Well, we have at least 2 things in common, dogs and beautiful stones!
So exciting..go back, go back arghh I can't wait
The three main things you hunt for....
Reminds me that there are 3 types of people......Those that can count...and those that can't......
😂🤣
Lol
Agate heaven 💞💞
It really was!😄
Yes the one with the 3 is very pretty but I have a fascination with petrified wood! It’s just amazes me.
Oh absolutely!😄 love our petrified wood in Montana; its some amazinf stuff!😄
Nice bunch for you. You are so fortunate to be able to hunt that river and find rocks such as the trifecta. Stay safe and havagudun Theo.
I definitely make sure i dont take it for granted😄Montana is a magical place for sure!
I agree with the trifecta stone being my favorite 🤩
What a location! Awesome finds. Can't wait to see some slabs.
Theo I barely heard the wind with your happy exclamations so don't worry about the wind and just keep having that much fun :) You had me at churt . I would love a piece of blue churt :)
Just phenomenal finds. Wow. And I just love love love the multi colored jasper. That would be a find of the day for me. Those all were definitely awesome finds. I was getting just as excited as you and I didn't find them.
Its hard not to get excited about the yellowstone!😄 definitely no shortage of treasures on it, but those rainbiw jaspers are something special! Thanks so much for watching!😄
Really enjoyed your video. That island is a rock hounder’s dream. Thanks for sharing. Nice dog too.
I love the red, yellow, blue, white jasper. It reminds me of watercolor class 🤩
Absolutely! The yellowstone has some absolutely amazing jaspers!😄
So many wonderful Pieces for cutting👍fantastic. Great Video👏
Oh yes! I am going to have a date with my saw when i get home for sure!😄
@@TheoKellison i really hope you show us your date with the saw😁👍
Thanks for taking us along! Love your videos and look forward to the next one! Hopefully next year I will be there...that is the plan!
Of course!😄thanks so much for watching! Hope you can make it over here! Montana is a rock lover's dream state for sure😄
Theo my dear Friends perfect vídeo...beautful Stones.
The tricolor is gorgeous ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Right!?😄thanks so much for watching!
I'd not be surprised if some day you edit a video from Floyd's point of view with you doing his voice. New spin off channel, Rock Dog Tales (Tails?!). With your snark, I think it would be hilarious. Guest appearances (with voices by Theo) of Katydid and MRM's pups.
😳.....that sir is a golden idea!😂🤣 i am probably gonna have to do that
What a great idea!!! Theo - get on that soon as you get home!!!!
I wish i could go to such places
They are ALL so BEAUTIFUL!! The petrified wood is really pretty; I would LOVE to make some jewelry out of ANY of these materials!!! Love your awesome attitude and pure joy over finding these lovely works of art, made by nature! New sub here!
Gonna check out your creations on Etsy next! 💎 ⛰️ 🙏🏼❤️🛡️
My favourite is the 2 jasper stones!! So beautiful!!
I don't know how I wasn't subscribed to you yet, Glad I finally did!
Awesome Finds cant wait to see them cut.
Wow…!Theres a lot of amazing stones．．．！😲💞
Loved the variety and colours thanks for sharing your trip
"Good Agate" is a redundancy of terms! You made some killer scores and I loved the roll backwards, backpack toooo heavy! How may times have we said 'okay, that has to be the last one of the day' too funny. Love Floyd, such a good dog. Great video, cheers!
Right!?😂no such thing as a bad agate! Im thinking a "no agate left behind" shirt may be something i need to make😂 also yes😂🤣 my legs were already wobbly from a DIFFERENT hunt/video that i recorded that day so that was the second time in one day i was hauling rocks and my legs were firmly telling me to stop it😂and yes my boys are just the best, mr floyd is my shadow for sure!😄
Wow. I've collected petrified wood before from AZ but I've never seen it tumbled in a river rock form before. Just killer.
Wow the trifecta. I bet it looks even better slabbed out.
I like all of them but the jaspers this time was absolutely amazing
There were some great ones for sure!😄
You always find such fantastic specimens..
Good collection. Quick trip. You done good. Love to Floyd.
Beautiful finds. Congratulations!👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏
I like the multi-color Jasper
My Theo you found some really beautiful stuff 😍. Thanks for sharing
Thank YOU for watching!😄
Dude, that session rocked and no wonder you seem stoned
You have some awesome finds.
Thank you!😄
Wow tell you there’s a lot of fancy stones out I don’t know how do you spot him on those island but God love you and they all enjoy your time on vacation or should I say wood while Kyle I will talk to you later bye
It owsome as always tku for sharing
ooops, behind commentin' on the vid cause watched it on the tv. what a haul, enjoyed the adventure Theo. 👊
Love your channel, Theo.
Haha! Dude STOPPPPP IT! I’m 3 mins in and havin a great ol time out with y’a! The finds, the river and goodtimes brotha! Heck yes! On to watching yo!
Okay 4:56 feeling the pull of the sand around a rock is a brilliant feeling! And THEN seeing it get even bigger as you expose it! Ughhhhhhh! This is what we live for!
Oh my gosh Floyd melts me! So happy!
I neeeeeeed to learn more about fossils in my area.
11:49 😲
Okay I’ll stop commenting now, sorry for the comment bombardment, i just have heaps to say haha! Plus I think it helps the Algorithm... 🤪
Love it man! Brilliant video!
Beautiful aggets ❣️❣️✌️
I’m not done watching only half way through but broooo. Your bag had to be so full when you leave. That was a nice monster agate at 5:10. So many good finds
Yeahh😅there was definitely some weight in this one😂 and yeah dude o was so excited about that agate! With how little was poking out i could not belive hiw big it was!
WildKyle brought me here. Great channel Theo.
I want my own trifecta rock!! Great video. Another great day 😎
I have been hunting the yellowstone for years and years and years and i have never found another trifecta rock! Just si cool! Thanks si much for watching!😄
Some very nice finds.
The "trifecta" is a fantastic piece, and I appreciate the "civilization" hyperbole. And I truly like the tri-coloured jaspers as well.
The heavy blue agate is my favorite
Just love your enthusiasm:^) awesome finds
Like always Theo good job on your hunt.I can't wait for when you cut them. Hay I'm giving you an idea 💡 I was thinking if you could slab those rocks 🎸 and have them under epoxy on an electric rock Guitar with small LED lights Imagine how cool that would look. Anyway I hope you could get into something like that. Anyway thanks for listening Ray
It’s Theo’s Island of Hyped!!! That’s it... I have to move to Montana! Okay, okay... I guess I’ll have to enjoy it through your videos. Just keep em coming!😉
😂that was one magical little spot! Unfortunately i will not be able to get back for awhile; river just started coming uo apparently so it wont be a wade so much as a swim😂🤣 and no problem boss!👍more videos coming soon!
Awesome finds and cute dog!
Great hobby
Linda pedras parabéns pra você 👍👏🙌❤️
You don't need to bring the dog... you need a pack mule!!!😂😂😂
Love the blues in those agates 😃💕
I was hoping to see these rocks, after you cut them and see how fantastic they must be!
I am almost positive when you picked up that honker at 4:34 you missed one next to it! I call the fortification agates like the one at 11:50 American Boulder opal!😂🤣
very lucky today...
Amazing and good job!😍
It looks like Floyd is a border collie. If so, they are great dogs!
Great finds Theo
Great video Theo, awesome finds. Looking forward to seeing that ammonite prepped.
It'll be on the bench as soon as i get back home!😄
Awesome video and amazing rocks!!
Keep it up, my friend!
Love stones
So many
gorgeous, incredibly stunning finds today, Verily very fortunate of you.
Very cool been finding a bunch of agates
So wish I could learn to spot them. Would love to make an excursion with you guys.
There was a piece of petrified wood u missed it was one of the biggest looking rocks it was at 2:48 right next to the piece you did find you could've taken that! Tip: spray water at a bunch of rocks at the same time some might look normal but if u spray water u can see there fabulous
Thank you very much for your video's. Just came across you last week. Looking forward to watching more, am learning more about the rock's i have been finding.
I love your enthusiasm and your finds and your videos on faceting stones. However, I would like to ask if at all possible if you could hold a find in the camera for a short count so we can see it better. They disappear so quickly! Thanks!
Love the blue Montana agate!
Those are some of my absolute favorite to find!😄
