I’m not particularly interested in prospecting myself, but Chris’s videos genuinely make me happy. Thanks buddy.

I'm in the US...in Florida, where the only gold in the ground, was dropped by some unlucky soul, so, it's my dream to be able to do this one day!😉 Chris, Fern, Gadzee and Mick are my therapy, and the comedy is better than watching anyone on a stage❣️🥰

From one sufferer to another I use detecting as my meditation but not brave enough to film it like you - good job Chris and not just on the prospecting

Me too!

Love the sharp, chunky gold, totally different from the river rounded gold. All is just so lovely!!

Sometimes I think finding a specimen is more exciting than just straight gold. But these were all awesome finds!

I always love how excited you are when finding a nugget .

You and Cadzee and Mick get on great together and your narrative always teaches would be prospectors and when you talk with them the conversation is nuts. You always do describe what you are doing. Keep on making your funny yet interesting videos

You killed me with that "between 2 ferns" comment. Brilliant

Thanks for all your videos man, your personality is awesome and when Gadzee is there makes it even better. Gotta love having a good friend to share your hobbies with. I just got into the hobby a few years ago, my grandpa used to take me with him when I was a kid to go rockhounding and to all the local gem shows and shops. He even won a quarts hunting competition in the 80s, paid for the whole trip for everyone and still had a little money in his pockets when he got home.

Man i love seeing specimen gold when the quartz is melted out. Really nice take you found there. I wish I lived somewhere with gold like that.

Love watching you and Gadzee on your adventures. Fern is a beautiful pooch!

Just realized I wasn't subscribed, give your lovely boxer some extra love for me, she's the main reason I took up panning, I lost my boxer last year and have been suffering from depression even more so with her gone. I love seeing your pup grow up throughout you videos, and it brings a smile to my face seeing my dogs personality thro fern. Boxers are truly amazing. Keep up the great videos.

Hugs to you; losing a friend just sucks. You'll get another when you are ready.

Wifey and I have only been chasing gold and watching Vo-Gus for 6mths, since retirement. We blame Chris for us having some of our best times, out in the bush, away from the rat-race. This is despite us having collected a grand total of bugger all grams so far.

You, Gadzee, and fern make your adventures look really fun, and informative.

Never fail to watch your channel even though I will probably never find time to try it for myself. Always good content and educational. Keep up the good work.

@@markfryer9880 true Mark, but it takes a little more effort when one doesn't live in a gold producing part of the US. Got two boys in college, so money is spent on needs and not dreams right at the moment. Maybe one of these years.

I love these videos where you teach with great patients. I've learned from watching you.

Turning all the rivers, Working in the rills, Tunnelling the mountains, Sluicing off the hills, Sweating in the sun, and Shivering in the blast, Mighty Vo-gus prospecting Living very fast!

I've never prospected, will probably never even get the chance to, but I've learned so much from your videos. I really believe if I ever found myself in a gold bearing area I could find gold and would know how to pan it out. Thanks, Kris.

I really look forward to your videos. I have always wanted to prospect for gold but in the USA in my area there isn’t any. What a beautiful specimen can’t wait to see your next video! Cheers mate

What I do when I'm speed panning is I pan down until I see Black Sand. Then I dump that pan into my Cons Bucket. To make sure I am still on the Gold, I pan down to the Gold each fifth pan full. I concentrate this way because panning Black Sand is a pain in the bum, and my Underflow makes quick work of it while capturing everything down to Micron Gold.

everytime i fall in love more and more with this hobby... nice looking gold and those specimens are amazing

Love the work you guys put into making this stuff. Always a pleasure to watch.

I think you and GadZee should definitely start a podcast!!! Doesn't have to be about prospecting or gold.... Just you guys rambling on about nonsense. I think it would be good!!

I most definitely agree! I could listen to y’all two speak all day as it is with your accents, and you’re just entertaining people! Only downfall is it would take time away from the creek..unless you do it on the creek, almost like a live stream. I can imagine that would be difficult however, regardless I support the idea of a podcast, but would understand myself as to why you wouldn’t do it.

I would absolutely listen to a podcast that you two would do! And even more so, The Further Adventures of “Yer a prospector, Harry!” 😂

I am in America and I have to tell you, that Your methods and insights are applicable inbso many ways. Your infectious enthusiasm keeps me IN THE GAME as I oo enjoy this hobby of Ours. Thanks, "Mate".

Aww, to be young once again. Watching your videos bring back some good memories. Thanks Chris!

I love your videos. I would love to try gold panning or metal detecting. 🇨🇦❤️

I have Lyme disease I'm home bound mostly now. Your Show brings me a lot joy . Thanks for what you guys do down under.

I would love a hard rock specimen to put on the shelf at home. It would make a good conversation starter and a good way to get my daughter interested in some more outdoor activities!!

Your storytelling and sharing of the joy you take in your hobby has had me coming back for more, hope you two enjoyed the drink! Love that you are willing to share some of your hard work with your followers.

Love the method of melting quartz. It allows to show true character of gold speciments.

Another great video. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.

Your enthusiasm is contagious and always a pleasant watch keep up the good work

I look forward to your videos every week. Thank you for taking us on your adventures

I appreciate your sense of humor and style and am thoroughly entertained by your take on life. Keep true to yourself and I intend to keep watching.

Nice haul! Tell Fern(?), your cute 4 legged sidekick, the viewers said hiya! Give her a good scratch! My chihuahua, Fancy, really watches her closely.

I love being able to armchair mine by watching your videos. Keep up the hard work

Another great vid, Chris. Good time with good friends. Fwiw I'd actually love to watch a bit of you and Gadzee kicking back with a few whiskeys!

Started watching and haven’t stopped. Pretty cathartic watching you chip away at something you love!

I would LOVE that specimen. All I find in my area is flour gold. Good luck, everyone!

Love the optimism in all of your episodes.

I really like how you explain what and how you do to look for gold in different areas. Cheers from Canada.

it's amazing how much gold the Oldtimers tossed on the waste dump. Glad they left some for us.

Love seeing your videos, Eldy has a special place in my heart and it's so nice to watch someone who feels the same xx

Metal detecting and chemistry lessons. Perfect sunday morning.

I just love those specimens you pull out of the waste piles! Probably my favorite part of your videos, and to think I might have a chance to get that gorgeous specimen is the root of this comment!

What an amazing day and rescue!!!! You never cease to amaze!!!!

Glad you got the specimens, I love the look of the gold fresh from the quartz peel. Spectacular!

Your videos make me feel like being there side by side with you. I grew up used to 100 degrees in the summer so hot weather is normal for me. Watching your videos I learn a lot every time. Love your dog and when you get the whiskey, bottoms up Kris.

Those specimens are beautiful, most gold you see is so smooth.

This specimen is lovely - and the others that came out of the caustic soda look really interesting too. Lovely weather but those flies look a bit bitey. Fun video 🎉

Great to see the 10x5 Goldhawk smashing those speccies Chris. All the best.

Great shot of the pooch just sitting enjoying the sun so cute

One of the few prospecting channels left that I actually look forward to those notifications! One day I hope to make my way to Australia and if I'm lucky enough, I hope to be able to shake back a couple of pans!

That specimen looks like a miniature castle on a mountaintop. Great vid, love your work.

I love the variety in these longer videos. Amazing specimens, even if one washes their salad in a hat and the other drools a bit. Great gold too!

That's what she said 🤣 I almost choked on my food. Funny

Great job as usual! I've learned so much from your channels over the past year, and I don't think that's gonna stop anytime soon!

I never miss your videos. I live in New York where the only gold is in Wall Street so will never get to go panning so I really enjoy.

Powerrrrr! All hail Clarkson! Great video Chris

Chris your content alone is solid gold!!!

Watching and listening to your wise words is inspiring. Thanks so much for all the learning and entertainment at the same time. Xx

I truly enjoy wanting you, Gadz and Mic going out on your adventures. The fact that your fur baby gets to go out on your adventures is a true blessing 😊. Some day I am definitely making a trip to the land down under, and being a whiskey connoissewer myself, you'll have to show me what great whiskeys Australia has to offer.

Reedy creek has been keeping gold prospectors happy for 100's of years :)

Consistent gold.... the video that is! Another great bit of entertainment Chris. It's too darn cold to hit any creeks around me. Your videos keep me going through the winter. Thank you so much.

Born you are funny . Love the days lol . Blessings. Give that dog a hug . She puts up with you lol

Your hobby has a good return on time investment Chris, thanks for all the videos you've made.

Alot of people do not know how much of a process it is dissolving the gold out. Great looking specimens! Keep up the amazing videos.

Definitely loving your speci hunting. These golds in their "natural habitat" are gorgeous.

Love watching you and your mates. It's the dead of winter here in Central Alberta Canada 🇨🇦. Our Gold here is the same ,flour that was eroded by Glaciation Action and deposited in layers. Love the tweak with the Miller Table, pure genius. Cheers. Ps - 18C tonight going to - 25 next week Paulie is right for living on Vancouver Island.

I really do enjoy your videos and all the different techniques employed to find and extract gold. Your explanation on how and why to dig an area is really good - I'll never be able to use but very useful information, all the same.

Ever considered putting a metal detector on the end of your sluice? If gold is stuck to quartz (or anything else) it would go out the end. A warning beep might be nice..

Your videos never cease to amaze me I've looked at hedgerows or hedge bushes like that with flood debris in them several times on creeks and didn't even think about that thank you and that's an awesome looking bunch of gold nuggets good going

I love hearing the banter, makes it so more interesting, oh and your knowledge around it all is awesome, awesome speci by the way

Thank you so much for making my life richer. Not only have you made damp UK winter days feel bearable but I have gained knowledge as well. Much love and a stitch behind the ears for Fern.

Great fun, thank you so much for sharing!

Hey Chris. I like the multiple trips per video and ofc Gadsy. Thanks for sharing.

Happy new year Chris and Fern. Another fun video thanks. CJ and Flip (who loves all the scratches behind his ears!)

What a prize! Amazing little nugget! Thanks for the opportunity Chris!

Nice one, that specimen you found is a beauty! Was probably hard to leave a hot spot like that after discovering all of those.

Thanks for your amazing videos and give aways. This is my favorite prospecting/treasure hunting channel by far. Shout out to all the great pups out there and Fernie!

That was a great old mine dump. I think I would be spending some more time there for sure. Take care.

What beautiful pieces you found. Have a wonderful day

Just going through the motions of doing something like checking out new spots or old spots could be all that it takes to find that 1 piece or pan worth talking about. The creek is calling and I must answer it.

I have been watching Vo-Gus Prospecting videos for the past few years. Lately the video have improved and are very informative. TY

Thank you for the enjoyment and knowledge you videos provide.

Always a good watch for those days where the miserable weather keeps you indoors! Keep it up lads! Awesome content!!

Given my doggo a wicked scratch. Impressed by the finds. A specimen, I'd definitely like to have. Thanks for your work and videos, both on vogus and spud channels. Take care

I really love the chunky Shuweet color of your gold. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for showing how to check for gold and the efforts it takes to find it. Very inspirational!

Beautiful pieces when you dissolve the quartz. Just found your channel and I am enjoying it. Thanks for the effort you put into creating these.

Great job!!! Looked like a fun time on the creek!!

I'm living my life through your videos. I love gold prospecting but there is no gold bearing ground anywhere near me. The closest is probably a 10 hr drive

Thank you for the entertainment! Another great video! Love the hard work fern puts into every thing!😁

your videos are always so friendly feeling, always enjoy going panning with you

Looks like a great week of good weather finally and some good gold well done

I wish we had gold here where I live but if I want to go prospecting it's close to a 1000 miles. keep making videos, love to watch them.

You got me through my down time after surgery for months. So thankful to you and your BFF 😉

Cool. Glad to see you’re having a good time

Awesome video! Thanks for sharing your hobby!!

Always a joy to watch. Quite the specimen haul this go round! Amazing.

your editing, narration and above all confidence in story telling have come so far over your youtube journey keep it up mate enjoy that drink well earned
