    It's a cool feeling to find a piece of gold with a detector. Over a gram piece along with quite a few smaller I'd bring a mcloud and scrape some bigger area's. Also with that jeep you could drag the field 😆. Good job out there boy's. Next trip you'll probably do even better and at seventy bucks a gram it's definitely worth it. Joe gold

    The area we were in is BLM. I think the 2300 is one of the best detectors out there, they are a bit heavy, but it folds up and will fit in my backpack. Waterproof, can work in the rain and if you drop it in the creek - no big deal. Reads off the edge of the coil and has plenty of depth, and will pick up gold smaller than you want to mess with.

    I have to ask why you do not disclose your locations. Let’s use common sense. Would I as a watcher of your videos jump in my car and go to somewhere by the location for at the most 5 grams of gold. I think not. However, knowing the location would allow me to study the area about its history. Just seems super silly is all when you think about it logically.
