HIGHBANKING FOR GOLD

Ойын-сауық

Hello and welcome to episode 68 of West Coast Gold Prospecting. Today I am using my small highbanker to find some gold. I brought my son Tanner for a little extra help and he did great.

    Awesome video! Not bad colour at all, some of those bits were actually rather large It was suprising to see those show up that high above the river (altough I guess thats how it is like our biggest picker/small nugget was on a clay bank well above the water level). Keep it up!

    Damon, first time here (i think). Great golden smile in that pan, Tater. Can only imagine how much you'd got if you worked it all day. Looks like Tater-tot getting a handle on it. Going to be a good hand. May all your days be golden.

    You know that the angle is too high. You are losing gold . And having to feed much slower. Set it at half it's current height/angle. Smaller shovels but quicker
