That amethyst was a beauty. Excellent find. And the agates too. Sooo cool.

You should tie the bucket around your waist with a leash or something. Make it long enough that you can still use it, but that way you know it won't float away when you're showing the camera everything youve found!

Gorgeous rocks, though! Purple is my favorite color. So, naturally, amethyst is also one of my favorites! That was a Gorgeous, amazing find!

So much fun running into you that day! Thank you for sharing your find and your excitement with my wife and I! Hopefully we'll see you again in the spring!

How about putting a string from the bucket to your belt? 😜

Watching you get so excited about your finds is totally giving me life this morning!! I know nothing about agates or rocks in general, but I’ve become a huge fan of your videos and could watch you hunt and cut these beauties all day long! Can’t wait to see you cut into some of these! 🩶

Tether that bucket my friend 🤣🤣😁. That amethyst is gorgeous 🎉🎉🎉

If I felt safe about that I might do it! 😂

Good to see Scoopy back at it. And picking up that sweet amethyst too. “Scoopy is the man!” It is the way.

That amethyst is a stunner. Also my birthstone. Years ago, while camping in southwestern Maine, my older bro and I used to go rock hunting at the many abandoned mines open to the public. We'd stop in at Perham's Maine Mineral Store at Trapp Corners for maps and advice, then head out. Always hoped to find some watermelon tourmaline, but no luck. Bit too old at 71 to go bushwacking and mountain scrambling, but I do have the memories.

Holy moley, the size if the amethyst is huge. I would have just gone home then, but you continued and found a lot more sweeties. Keek having fun!

I've watched this video three times because your happiness is so contagious. 😂 The excitement and laughter I just so genuine.❤ glad you had such a successful hunt 🎉

I enjoyed very much seeing the agates and the other ones. I love watching everyone cutting them in half.They are sooo beautiful.

Gotta see this...that's amazing! I think the bucket also needs a name and smile like scoopy.

I miss it there so much! Gosh is Lake Superior spectacular. I haven't been there in about 20 years now. I grew up in Wisconsin but I moved out West. I have every intention of getting back there as soon as I can! Gitche Gumee, Big Sea Water!

Some stunning keepers! Love the agate at 6:00. Congratulations on the Amethyst!

I love your laugh and excitement!! I get like that as well!!! Love Lake Superior!

Haven't watched a video in quite some time, but your happiness is just contagious it feels like I'm out hunting side by side with you! Thanks for all the videos of rockhounding Lake superior.

Those are fantastic!!! 💜🪨 We love that beach too! (we went there three times this year)

That amethyst is spectacular!

Omg that Amethyst is incredible. It was so much fun watching you find it

I have found a tiny amethyst, yours is over the top. At first glance I thought an amethyst rose! I enjoy that you are so animated. I understand, you make me smile.

Tip: Put a string on your bucket and tie it to yourself/belt or whatever, then you do`nt have to worry that the bucket shall slide away. That Amethyst was great. I think it is the first time I have seen someone find an Amethyst around that lake🤩🤔👍👍Good finds.

Tether the bucket viewer to your belt so that you won't have to swim. That amethyst was amazing. Delightful finds!

That amethyst is such an incredible find! 😱

I've never found a piece of amethyst that big! 👏

Glad you got back to the lake! Amethyst is incredible! And agates oh my goodness! Thanks for helping me cure my rock picking itch a little when I can't get up to the lake. I was waiting for this one keep them coming 👍

That was awesome to watch. I love how excited you get when you find a great rock! That was fun.

I love your rockhounding videos. We all get excited just listening to how excited you get when you find such cool rocks! Great video!

One of the best hunt videos this fall.... congrats on that amethyst beauty & happy hunting, stay warm.

Taylor when I lived in MN we took a trip up the north shore to Superior Ontario and visited an amethyst mine. Really cool. That rock may have traveled a long way!😊

You're too funny, my family thought I was the only one who got that (silly) excited while rock hounding 😂 I just love watching your adventures!😎✔ "Bobby" from Rock Bottom💥

A great day to be out there. That amethyst, wow.

Your excited laugh is infectious

Great finds! Looks like a wonderful day..Lake Superior being calm and in November... doesn't happen much!

Hi Taylor, love your videos and have watched them all! In puddingstone land here. Advice for the floating bucket - tie a small rope to the handle. Easier to retrieve when it starts floating away.

You need a retractable lanyard to attach to your bucket, so it doesn't get away from you.

your giggles of happiness are spreading the joy :) love it

Love watching your content! A friend shared this video earlier today. It’s her birth stone. Must have been good luck! I found an agate loaded with Amethyst. Probably the best I’ve found so far. Thank you!

⭐️⭐️⭐️ tie a string to your bucket handle and tie the other side to your belt loop then your bucket won’t float away‼️‼️👍🏻👍🏻. The bucket idea is awesome ‼️‼️

I love how excited you get. I have a suggestion about your bucket. Carabiners and cord. Attach one end to the bucket and the other to yourself. No more wandering Wilson.

So calm, great finds! I’ve never found amethyst up there, so excited for you 🎉

O my goodness, Taylor! This has been such a fun video! Who knew November on the Northshore could be so exciting!

Awesome finds!

Love your finds! What is the material that you used to replace the bottom of the bucket since it is clear? Your finds are so cool!

Put a rope on your bucket: when you found the purple I thought you were going to do a dance. Beautiful finds.

Very cool. Love your bucket with the clear bottom. Genius idea 💡

All I can say is WOW!

I love to hear your joy and excitement

Nice hunt and a beautiful place.

Oh, my, goodness golly gosh! Look at that amethyst!! What a beautiful day! Love the view finder bucket btw👍

That was such an amazing hunt! That amethyst was awesome! And so big! And all those nodules! The mary elken jasoers were so beautiful, especially that funky one! What a just, amazing day! You just killed it out there! Thanks Taylor!

THAT IS SO GREAT CONGRADULATIONS ON FINDING THE AMETHYST....❤😊

My husband graduated university with a degree in geology...I've been talking about this channel and one other one, he is impressed that I know about certain "rocks" because I never took an interest when he was in school 30+ yrs ago. Now I need a rock saw, tumbler and money to travel. lol

Oh man, can't wait to see the video of you cutting these open!❤

I have a amethyst skip-atom and this year I found a amethyst agate of somekind, I haven't polished the most recent one though! Anyway, that amethyst piece you just found is awesome!!! Congrats!

Omg I love your quiet enthusiasm 😂

Yepper that should polish up really nice.

My Mom brought me amethysts from the mines in Thunder Bay, Ontario ..you can go there and get pieces of beautiful amethyst so maybe some washed out into Lake Superior or its part of the same vein.

Love your Superior hunt for agates, etc! And I’m jealous, as I only found 3 very small agates there this summer. I definitely need waders;) Just an FYI about your opening comments - none of the Great Lakes (not even Superior) have tides, as such. Too small to notice. However, storms and winds cause larger waves, and can contribute to “seiche,” somewhat similar to the sloshing in a bathtub, and that can be about a foot of change at times.

another great video!!!

You might get a retractable coil or even a dog leash with the loop around the handle then you can clip the leash to your belt loop, it would keep your bucket from floating to far off and you could pull it back to you.

What a day! Happy for ya dude!

So good!

You need to put leash on your bucket - attach the handle to your belt and clip the other end onto the buck handle.

You should 'dummy-cord' that bucket, paracord and a carabiner to a beltloop. if you slip and go chest-deep in the water, the surge may wash the bucket into deeper water and out of reach. 😉

Very nice!

My grandsons would have a field day there. Great finds

Smart kid!

When I go fishing, I have snap hooks all over me with my buckets and things, all on cords and elastics so that I can leave them floating around me. That way a bad wave or gust of wind can't carry it too far!

You are so funny to follow, I am screaming with you when you get a super one. Bravo

You should put one of those bungy cords parents use to keep track of their kids on your view bucket.🙃
