Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t...

The spider is called Harry. I got him for the summer bug season. Here in Australia they sell them at pet supply stores and they catch the flys that tend to hang around your face. They can't hurt humans, but they are wicked on flys. Best repellent ever.

Lmbo, Harry! Look at the gooollld!
You know when Chris let's fly with an expletive, it's something to be watching for.
What I've found is the reason the paystreak runs out no matter if you go up or down the river is because it's an ancient deposit from when the river flowed in a completely different direction because it was snaking around and went through the bed of the river at a different angle to how it flows today! So in theory if you follow the line from one side of the river to the other you will find it unless the high pressure has been powerful enough to wash the rest further down stream. People mostly think that the line of gold is going on the same direction as the the river but in different layers from when it's moving but if you watch before and after one big flood alone the coarse of the river can change completely and if you imagine hundreds or thousands of years of floods like that you have many routes where the river has snaked about. The best way to look at it is a plate of spaghetti with all the strands crossing over each other. I hope this helps you and anyone else who reads this! Put it into practice and make a video showing it and if I'm right give me some credit please 👍❤️💛💚
Hi Chris ! Fantastic video ! You guys found some awesome spots !! I think you should get back on the creek with the conglomerate bank. That's where the gold deposited anciently. The current creek might not have been in the same place thousands of years ago, so maybe a good chance more to be found. I apologize for not tuning in as often. Just been crazy busy. Best of luck to you next year, and keep the dream alive mate !!🤠👍💪⛏⚒
If anyone who deserves a great day it's you Chris. I love your channel, thank you for all that you do. Cheers.
Wishing you the very best in 2023. Looking forward to watching you find gold and hearing all your stories and advice. Good health and good cheer.
I love how excited you get Chris! Keep it up my man! Love these videos!
Oh man that first tributary... you're gonna have some more great days there!
I love your gold prospecting videos. as I myself am an amateur prospector from Sweden who has only been doing this for a year. since you actually helped me with a little how it works with looking for gold, so thank you and happy new year! :)
I love seeing you get so excited!!! The sheer happiness on your face is exhilarating:)
Really enjoyed that mate, looking forward to your next adventure
though I had some problem with sea water It also kzread.infoUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn
Pet spider on your right sholder at 2:46, all the ladies go EEEEK! lol, keep up the good work my friend

Can I scratch you or Mick or Gadzee behind the ears?🤣 Loved the video Chris, & though I've been watching your videos for years,I have finally decided to become a Patreon member. With golden hopes of getting an autograph, or any other nuggets from you. This is the first time I have ever supported anyone, so I'm looking forward to an interesting new year. BTW happy New Year to you and your mates!
Great episode Chris!
Graet vidieo Chris, a wonderful year of great content and entertainment. Thank you for the time and effort you put in to you vidieos. Happy New Year to you, Mick, Gadzzy & Fern.
I wanted to say a big thankyou for all your advice and tips I tried Panning for the first time in Gympie Qld and picked up myself a few flakes, nothing to crazy but was just super happy that your knowledge and advice paid off
You are so bloody Hilarious and Informative 😁 Been watching for ages, love your Video's.... Happy New Year to you and Family.. 🍻
I love theses videos keep it up and happy new year bro
A magnificent spot and you all was very lucky , thanks for another wonderful video as they keep all our dreams alive
Enjoyed that. Happy New Year to you from here in the U.S.
I love the "this was a mid-shelf day" comments in your videos and today immediately after the video ends a Whiskey commercial lol. Cheers!
"Sweet necters of life... I'd snort them if they weren't covered in Mercury"!🤣🤣🤣 Oh my, your gettin better every video Chris! BEST comedy Gold prospectors of 2022🤩
Nothin like quality time with good mates. Thank you for sharing your fun times with your buddies. 😉👍
I don't watch prospectors shows Chris, but I like yours. It's dry here in Arizona desert, they damn up all the waterways, so whoever goes out with me we put dirt in buckets & I pan it, they don't wanna! I brought a friend to my place & showed him what I dug up without a metal detector , about an OZ of Platinum in 1/3rd a bucket some raw silver & some chunky gold flakes...Many specimen rocks too! I was bedridden for almost a quarter century until a few years ago & now they can't stop me...good show matey
Love the sound of your shovel scrapping on bedrock!
Glad to see you getting a new pocket. Gold day Mate
Happy New Year Chris 🎉 and your Friends Always looking forward to your video posts.
Great run there Chris ... Happy New Year from Alaska.

Hi Chris! After yesterdays video, I can see what this one is about!!! Many thanks for sharing your great experiences with us, be safe!! Cheers, alwy
Some nice gold you all had in this video mate, I wish I had have been there for a shot at that, I'd have to get you guys to help me out with the clean up though because I don't have the practice in that area. Have a ripper guys and a great new year!
Great video Chris. My guess by the look of that fat line of Gold in the paper was 1.8. 1.47 is still really good. I loved the variety of sizes of the gold you found in this video. Thank you for sharing your adventures. Cheers
Nice work dude.

Nice vid' again. Sadly, I can no longer give our Murphy boy a scratch behind the ears. We lost him to cancer at the end of October. We actually took him in to the Vet so he wouldn't suffer unnecessarily and we have his ashes here at home. Naturally, we miss his antics. Give Fern a big hug and belly scratch for me, please.
Love those tubes for classifying. I find the large tubs handles Are great, but the smaller ones break at the drop of a hat
Happy freaking new year mate! No click baits here.

On Christmas Day I took my pans to my in-laws place and took a couple of test pans out of the small creek / drain that runs inside the fence line of their 1 acre property in a area surrounded by known gold deposits, firs few pans got nothing, then a speck , next pan 2 specks , nobody could believe how happy this made me …… 3 specks ….. yup
Just bought a devil forge furnace. Making my own aluminum, copper and brass bullion. You can do the same with gold! Ebay is your friend. They come from Lithuania.
@2:45 your spider friend makes an appearance on your shoulder, haha.
That was cool.
Very nice spot!!!
Have you ever used a trinity pan? My experience I've been able to get gold flower out of the ground it's such a good gold pan. With my Trinity pan at home and a little bit of Jet-Dry to break water surface tension I find that super duper fine flower gold in this video I see you showing some
Vo I like your excitement. I can remember when I found those little guys. But now a moldy side and crippled plus eye sight isn’t the best no more.😂
Spiderbro on your shoulder at 2:46, whispering where to pan into your ear!
5:38 I need that tool... 9:40 Dolly pot is cool... 10:40 Jaw crusher is awesome. 12:28 Great advice, do you have videos on these 3 methods?
Hi Chris! Long time watcher, first time typer. It's been great being able to live vicariously through your adventures and learn a bunch about panning and prospecting. The closest place near me to fossick is over two hrs away near Oberon so it's hard to get out often. I'm actually lucky enough to be doing a road trip through Beechworth, Bendigo and Ballarat over the next week and a bit. I'm going to be teaching some of my wife's work colleagues how to pan so I'll hopefully be able to find a good spot along Reedy creek to teach them :)

I'm not into panning but dam boy there some unbelievable pans 👌👌
I find that squatting to pan is rough on my legs. My knee pads have neoprene straps which are stretching apart so I need some sturdier ones. I have a Jobe 10" sluice with legs, a Keene 6" sluice, an EZ sluice, Tom & ?(Massie brothers) cleanup sluice, 3 roll up pack sluices from Canada. We seem to have some fine gold to very thin flakes mostly though some nuggets have been found here. I'm wondering if I need to change the mats that came with the sluices to something else. I do have a Minelab Xterra 70 and a couple of old Bounty Hunter detectors and a cheap pinpointer.
i love your content man, just an idea you may choose to humour at some point. but hour long specials where you go from explaining your theory behind choosing a location, it's history and the journey with conclusion. traveling to different part of the country / world. like a documentary on adventure prospecting. kind of like how Jeremy wade looks for river monsters based on stories . anyway. thank you for staying genuine and keep up the good work. :)
Love these videos'!Wish we had more gold in Virginia-U.S.I'm in the Shenandoah Valley and the gold-vein does not come through here.There is just placer/flower gold,as far as I know?
Doing a clean-up with this single malt single barrel good whisky Is in one hand and a little tiny baby shovel in the other
Hey you said you got size. That's not what my wife said. Hey how would she know? Seriously love the videos brother keep them coming. I hope to make it down your way after I retire and get me some reedy creek gold.
try floating the buckets over the water as you walk. it should reducen the weight of the buckets
Love your pet spider Bro ♥️
That’s some crazy gold
You guys are having quite the stellar day! 🤔 🇺🇲🇺🇲👍🏻
You need to bring the high banker to that spot. I can guarantee that you will get a ton of gold if you do. I can tell just from the amount of gold you are getting in those couple of pans you will probably end up with an easy couple of ounces for the day!?.
You know its great gold when Chris starts talking like an Aussie :P
