Just a amazing day out fam. Nice Au indeed. Keep at it. Gold Squad Out!!!
Thanks man, you know I'm living the dream
Another great video, I’ll say it again, you are on a killer spot. Maybe you could file a claim because that’s some really good gold your on!
Thanks for sharing!
I was thinking about doing just that haha, there are no claims for a long stretch where I'm at. Just gotta scout out the best spots and stake em up :)
I like the illinois river!
The Illinois is amazing!
Amazing how the blu pan make the AU pop huh. Awesome adventure today, thanks for sharing 😅
Those XP pans are amazing! If I'm using my Garret super sluice, sometimes I transfer the cons to the XP pan just to see the gold better haha
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors same, actually gave up on super sluice and use it for fellow prospectors signatures. Only use XP, cause I lost lots of flea poop with the super sluice.
Awesome, thank you :)
Killer spot congrats and thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
Thank you :) I can't wait to get back down to the river
Was just reading up on Oregon laws for sluicing…. Don’t know if they’ve changed them yet but you have to have a 10k permit to sluice but dredging is ok???….
I think that may just be in specific locations. I can't sluice or dredge on the river in the videos, but most creeks and rivers (that are not esh) I think you can sluice and dredge. The only place I think you need a permit is on the beach. Don't quote me on those though
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors 👍🏼👊🏼
Gold gods have blessed thou 😅
Haha I sure am lucky. I just hope they won't require a sacrifice or anything weird lol
Those are good pans! Good little pocket you are working. When it peters out imagine where the water was running when that gold got deposited and look for places in that same high water "stream" above and below. Gold is not randomly laid out and follows trackable patterns. Very cool to watch! Thanks!
Thank you! The gold has been petering out on me, and I've been trying to think of where to continue the search. I'll keep this in mind next time I'm on the river :)
You are such a gold digger😝 So amazing, like always. And yeah that's right! Stay hydrated today and everyday!
Also, I really love your new friend Blue Jay♡
Haha, I am a gold digger ;) and I'll defiantly stay hydrated and safe :) I decided to call the blue Jay Jayson
Always nice to see bedrock gold😊 that was a nice spot. Need a small batt powered vacuum.
I really do need to get me a vaccume, I know there is just a ton of gold just sitting there haha
Nice ! Thanks for sharing! I’m in GP now and I don’t get out as much as I’d like! Very motivating!
I'm glad I can give you some motivation :) when you get down to the river next you will have to let me know how it goes!
Great films,,,, nice fines,,,keep filming !!!!
Thank you :) I've been having a hard time getting back to the river with the weather. I really need to get back down there and make a new video!
nICe ! !
Thank you
Over from Secret Creek...great trip
If you can...pack a small tool battery vac ✨️
I'll have to tell him thank you :)
I've been taking a look at some of the wet/Dry Vacuums, I just haven't decided which one to go for yet
@SkovianGoesOutdoors I have a Ryobi because I have the batteries...both Ryobi and Milwaukee are about the same size now.
The Ryobi I bought is really good but bulky to backpack 🎒.
You would kill those spots with one 👊🍻
Those are the two I've been debating on 🤣
Try Iwaki sump pump 36gpm
That's a great spot you got there . That bookleaf shale acts like natural riffles . Very nice pans , i would say you left that spot still producing gold , but Aye !!! there's only soo many hours in a day , lol . Top job Buddy . 👌👍✌ Cheers Ned .
Thank you, I need to go back to my spots with a brush and a vaccume sometime. Clean up everything I missed :)
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors That's for sure , 👍
Bloody beautiful 👍
Gotta love it :)
You had a good day just panning. To bad there isnt a spot to setup a sluice there. Water is still pretty high. Just subscribed, so keep the videos coming. 🇺🇸👍⛏️
Sadly I can't find a spot anywhere on the river, but there is a creek a few hundred yards away I've been thinking about lugging buckets over to haha. I'll defiantly be keeping the videos coming :)
Looks like it'd be a good sniping spot! That old crumbling bedrock especially when its bookends all lined up can keep you busy awhile. Pay close attention where those cracks continue underwater in the river. Thats where your NUGGETS are.
It gets deep really quickly, but I really wanna try out sniping, hopefully the water drops a bunch lol
Awesome!
Heavy pans bro!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it :) Heavy pans to you too!
Your doing great man keep it up like that area all the way around
Thank you, I will :)

Hello graves creek
shhh
Do you live in S Oregon? Looks nice and I'd love to pan out West. I'm in Michigan. Nice Job!
It really is beautiful out here, if you ever get a chance to pan out here, hit me up!
@@SkovianGoesOutdoorsYes I will. Thanks man, Thanks for that offer!! Ive been meaning to go to Portland this Summer and Fall So Yes I will have to do that. Good Fortunes to you!
You as well, Heavy Pans :)
what river? not asking for a spot. just curious to the river
Graves creek
Hello friend 😅
Good vid, nice gold, have you had previous experience with editing or are you just a natural?
No previous experience, I'm still trying to figure out how to use the editing software haha. And thank you, that means alot :)
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors you getting it right pretty much straight off the bat.
Taken me 3 yrs to start getting it right and you are blowing me away on ya views. Well done!
Your videos are really good! I could learn a thing or two from you
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors Thanks Man
I sure hope u have tightened up your panning skills.
Can you compare prospecting on the Rogue and Illinois for me?
Sadly I don't have any experience on the Illinois. I've been wanting to take a trip over there though.
@SkovianGoesOutdoors dredging costs $550 a permit for illinois. Chicago creek higher up in california feeds the illinois, naturally. Not sure if the laws are more strict on either side. Althouse district next door east a couple clicks finding 22 pound nuggets, few 17 pounders. So far i only find nuggers at mcdonalds and theyre filled with metal shavings.
Its called Waldo Mining district. Under the bridge there unpilfered
Hey brother, what's that hook called. Been wanting to pick one up
It's called a crevicing tool. This one is handmade, I got it at Umpqua Valley Mining Company in Winston Oregon, but I'm sure any mining store will have them. Another alternative that you can get from Harbor freight or Lowes is the "Pick and Hook set" or "Radiator hose Pick" similar set up to what this tool is
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors yea I may get a pick set if I can't find one of those thicker hooks. Time will tell, keep it up🤙🏼
It sure beats a screwdriver. . .Night and day difference
You can also take old butter, bread etc. knives and use a grinder to make thinner crack hooks for the narrower cracks which can catch alot of flakes.
That's a good idea!
what was the weight??
I didn't have a scale at the time. I just recently bought one to add a weigh up to the videos. The larger piece is .07g. My best guess is .75g total for the day. . .maby more (I'm still bad at eyeballing gold)
What river
Rogue
@@SkovianGoesOutdoors try the chicago feeding illinois takilma under Waldo bridge in town, its left of Althouse district where gold nuggets bigger than a footbal, 22lbs, 17lbs unearthed out there.
I personally making my way over to weaver rich hill arizona Stanton dutchman mining over a billion dollars in nugget pickets found there still many more waiting.
That's awesome! I hope you find something heavy!
I will definitely have to check that spot out! Thank you :)
