Symon my friend!!!!! I’m here still, just have had some massive changes in my life that have been hard to be happy filming and editing while going through them. I feel the urge building again and am looking forward to coming back though. I miss it so much! Hope you’re keeping well my brother!!!! Thank you for checking in dude. You’ll see me again soon.
@@Rookie_Rockounding I figured that there was something going on in your private life, I was hoping it was not really bad and something you couldn't come back from. I know you have a deep passion for this rock obsession we have been cursed with but I did fear that the orient had reclaimed you and the addiction of the bonsai had taken over, ( I had thirty trees before I realised I needed help). Bounce back when you feel comfortable again, i'm sure there are many people who miss you and miss seeing that nasty beard every two weeks. Stay the course but only if it is not putting any strain on your personal life, family and work are the most important and in that order, plus I will be comming after you if you quit before sending me my Prize from the symon thirsty bet. Chin up, go on an adventure find some gold and bring back the pleasure your followers are all missing. Stay safe my friend.
@@symonrocks9847 oh shit! Symon! The prize! I still have it! I know where it is! But yeah pretty much what you’ve mentioned are the two most important things, are the things that have changed. One for the better… (the job) But I guess the other for the better as well. I won’t know until time fills me in I guess. Sending love mate. Give me your address!!!!!!! Email rookie_rockhounding@outlook.com I’ll send it. But don’t let me forget pleaaaaaase!!!!
@@Rookie_Rockounding - These changing times have everyone questioning their relationships. You’re not alone. Nature is the best medicine, alone if necessary-best wishes
@@markmcarthy596 Yeah, alone in the wilderness, just you and nature, talking to the birds and rabbits, learning the flora and fauna and when the rabbit comes closer , feeling relaxed and safe, stamp on its head , that's dinner.
I wish I knew that many other rock hounds to go exploring with. Everybody just looks at me and rolls their eyes- they just don’t understand the joy of the hunt!
Hello from Australia. That is where they are and so am I. My parents were at a place called Wilson's creek and it had some nice choice carnelian. Most had a very thin skin. I saw a little piece or pointed part sticking out of the ground and struck it with a pick. Seeing dark orange material in it I knew immediately it was carnelian. I dug and dug until finally a big almost twice the size and shape of a human brain appeared with the skin on. I call it my petrified brain. It's really heavy and had a hole showing crystals. Love to get it cut one day. Another stone I found there was the shape of a six to eight inch geode with a thin dark red skin on. I smashed it in half to find it had white crystals all joined in the center. If you live in Queensland I could tell you of a few good places. Happy hunting.
Rookie: your vids got me through the covid lockdown..wish I could give you the encouragement that would see your channel contributions continue. Your way is so open and inviting, its a pleasure to hound with you through the magic of youtube. I don't know what you are going through, but know you are sent best wishes. In our daydreams, you are continuing the hunt and finding fabulous things. Be well and rock on! Nancy and Ray
"put it in your prison wallet!" hahaha Thanks as always for sharing sir, what an excellent adventure day out on the river with good mates just killing it on the hunt! Awesome goodness my friend, thank you for bringing us along and showing the goodies. Hope you have a spectacular week ahead brother~
That was an epic hunt. And what fun you guys all had going out together. Really enjoyed watching and drinking my coffee with my favorite Aussie this morning 👍
HOLY what a hound.Can’t wait to see them polished up. Will now go and join the other guys channels. Thanks for the awesome video yet again Jesse. Cheers dude.

That's good luck to find a horseshoe! Seems luck was on your side too. Talk about a fun day man! My "yacht" would be sunk trying to bring all those beauties home. 😂
Wishing you well from the U.S. (Virginia)! My wife and I love your channel and hope to see you back at it soon, happy, and through any hard times which might have arrived! What is the old adage? When you're going through Hell, keep going? Here's to brighter days and more rockhounding adventures! :)
Haha dude Pauly, I just love capturing the good times of the day. We’ll get out soon brother. Thanks for being such a rad mate man. I don’t know if people know how much you gotta put up with out there with me 🤪🤣🤪 Hope you have a good week ahead brother 👊
Thank you for a nice lift from you and your hounding buddies. I needed a bit of friendly fun and you all provided it. Wow, did you find some sweet rocks! 😊
Hey Jesse, just wanted to say thanks for all your awesome videos. Long time watcher and a SEQ local so love seeing you highlighting the beauties our neck of the woods has to offer. For those of us with a love for rockhounding but health limitations preventing us from doing any proper adventures, your videos are a life saver, giving us an awesome privilege to do it vicariously through you. Thank you so much for your joyous disposition and for taking us with you on your adventures. Take care mate and hope life improves for you soon.
I have loved your shows and friends. I have been disabled for 10 years. Recently I finely felt good enough to garden and sort through by bought gems which are brilliant some up to 30 kg and a magnificent collection of stones from a secret island. I went outside to plant beans. Fell on my head a 2 mt drop. Fractired my neck my nose,all my sinuses ribs, zsczpula an part scalped myself. 3 more months but must realise I’m not young. I will make an effort to be more careful. My dear past uncle use to travel all over Australia in a combi with his wife. He got me interested. I must still have a few decades left. He was an expert in the bar Rosa valley are. Great collection of fossils and opalised cockles. Also a spot I know are 3x3 cm cleargarnets. Tourmaline and iv lost the memory of all the other stuff. Sorry for your loss. Mine went mentally I’ll due to wrong malaria medicine in Africa. I married aChinese woman . 17 years December. Best decision in my life. But must be introduced by rich intelligent family. Will keep my eyes an ears on you.RobbyAU
OMG loved the duck! That strange crystal that your friend found was amazing! and the gravel bar produced some just amazing finds! That gorgeous jasper that pauly found, and that huge carnelian you found was awesome! i love that saying "a big chunk of your passion", and that last waterline find was amazing! You all the best finds and such amazing different types and sizes! I love how you really dont spot light yourself on these types of hunts Jesse. You sit back and film your group of friends amazing finds! and you were perfectly happy with your one big carnelian and the awesome waterline. You are such an awesome friend. What an amazing hunt in some amazing areas! that looked like so much fun. Thank you for sharing your passion with us and all of the incredible finds of the day!
Such an awesome day rockhounding with friends! All of the finds were so great, but the red and orange carnelians, the big common opal with crystals, agate fortification & little vug, the spherical rhyolite/orbicular jasper, partial thunder eggs and thunder egg cores are so amazing! I love how you get just as excited for your friends as you do for yourself when you all find those beauties. You are truly such a good guy. Thank you for sharing your incredible day and gorgeous finds Jesse!✌️🤠
Oh how this put a smile on my face. Legit good times right there! So many treasures I can't even begin. It's always the best with such great company too. I think your friends are super cool. Thanks brotha for taking me on a much needed adventure away from the daily grind. Cheers and much love💫
Oh mar I wish you were here I know that this crew would be twice as good if you were able to come along. Always have you guys in mind while filming these days out. Hoping you’ll enjoy the videos kinda thing. I hope you and your fam are keeping well mar. Sendin love from Carly and I!
Dude! What a freakin awesome hunt!!! The finds just kept coming!🤣 to many to pick a favorite man, craziness!! Those agates, the chalcedony, the freakin crazy thundereggs, what a day! Loved seeing that monster chalcedony you found man! Thatd be gorgeous cut and polished😁 Fantastic video as always brother!!!😄
Ayoooooo theooooooo! Man I haven’t had a chance to watch your latest one but the thumbnail looks hilarious and awesome!!!!! Thanks for watching brother. I hope you and Alexis are keeping well dude. Need to catch up and say g’day soon. Big love theo man!

That looked like so much fun! I am from WA state, US and I don't think we have such beautiful specimens in the Pacific Northwest. There are so many different rocks that all of you collected. We do have Chalcedony and some thunder eggs. I have not been out to any good sites to rockhound as I don't have a car. But someday soon! It was such a great video and I always love your adventures.
Heyyy Jackie! Yeah we are definitely spoilt out here. Once you get that car, head out exploring. It’s such a great time when you find a creek full of these beautiful nature treasures 😊😉
@@Rookie_Rockounding I definitely will do that. I have a river 2 blocks away from me that I have explored a little and I am just an hour from a good spot I want to go search up the mountains. It's 4am here so goodnight and thanks again for sharing.
Good friends, great rocks and good fun on the yachts... I'm envious. Front horseshoes are more rounded in the toe area with rear shoes being more pointy. Looks like you found a hind shoe.
My bucket list ?? I want to go rockhounding with you Jesse . Ever since I was a kid nothing has given me peace like searching for the stones that capture my heart and imagination ... Thank you Jesse !!
That is by far my favorite hobby. Fresh air and finding beautiful rocks. I live in Queensland Australia and these guys if you don't know fossick there.
This video was definitely worth the wait Jesse!! Spectacular finds by you and all of your mates! It is such a wonderful feeling when you can share your passion with friends and have amazing adventures. Thank you for sharing this mind blowing hounding event. Sending the love from Canada.
Wow you guys really scored this time! Rockhounding at its best right here. What a great excuse for a fun day outdoors. Now you have some real treasures to enjoy on a rainy day. The thunder egg core and crystals were really a surprise I thought! You might have to polish one of those big boys 👍🏼
I love your videos! As a senior adventurer, lifetime rock-hounder, and retired art instructor, your videos are some of my favorites! Your photography and great editing have made me look forward to every new adventure! Vicki - USA
Looked like an amazing day Jesse, some lovely rocks found by all. You are so lucky to have so many places to go find. I would love to have some of those thunder eggs. I have started to polish some of my finds with a dremel. Love doing it, not getting much house work done lol. Keep the vids coming and stay safe and well. Love your enthusiasm. Cheers.
Only my husband and granddaughter would go rockhounding with me. Y’all had some awesome finds ! I would be on cloud nine with those beauties. Great job and it was good to see you on your adventure.
You’re adorable!! Love that full body pure joy laughter of yours!! This would be my dream creek of a lifetime! Good on ya! We love long videos by the way!!
ROOKIE! WTF! So jealous but happy for you guys all at once! Haven't been able to hound in ages, so glad you could get out there and share the love babe 💓
Oh man I hear you though. There’s more and more people out the doing it and it can make it hard. After all the exposed finds from these rains are picked out, it’ll be back to trying to find anything possible on these gravel bars.
@@Rookie_Rockounding your agates and chalcedony that you found in this vide from Australia are pretty much the same as what we find in state of Washington
Wow, Jesse, seriously beautiful rocks, but besides the amazing rocks, Mt favorite part is all the fun your having with your friends! The excitement and people all being in nature is grounding and energizing. Well done buddy, beautiful video!
* OMG ~ So Many & So Beautiful... Fabulous . . Love Whole Video... You had me wanting to climb thru the screen to look with all of you ! ! There were so many of the Red crazy-lace-like-stones on that beach like the one at the 15:04 mark.. Drooling... Don't tip over grabbing water lines out of the water under the boat... LOL..
Good to see you well and back in the creek of possibles 👍, great time and worth the wait, you could make it a hour long and it wouldn't be long enough for me 😉. Take care Gent's
Jesse!! What a hunt, man! That massive chunk of chalcedony you found was awesome, as was all the orbiscular japser/chalcedony. What a great group of mates! I'm a bit jealous! So glad y'all had a great time! Hope you're feeling better and looking forward to another cutting vid when you see what's inside these treasures. Take care! See ya in the next vid! ❤️
True meaning of ABUNDANCE! You have no idea how much you inform and inspire 💜 thank you for this video especially. We have been hounding on unpicked gravel beds and at first we were in disbelief about how much good stuff we are finding. This video is confirmation that it CAN be this great! Cheers to you and your friends! Stay swell homie 🤟🏽💜🌊🪨
Oooo what a wonderful day of finding treasures !!! Love watching your videos always !!! I know you had a blast for sure searching through all of those gravel bars. I would be in heaven myself lol. Take care and be safe always !!
Heyo Jessie just lettin you know even if your not putting out videos we will still always have all the love for ya brother and if you do feel like making any again I’ll be waiting and more than happy to watch em and drop a like as the kids say😂😂😂 … I may still count as a kid to most the population tho…
Wow, what a great spot. Some really nice gems all round, with everyone but the ones Locky found, were very interesting. You find a lot of Carnelian gems which are a nice dark colour.
Rookie, rookie, Where for art thou rookie.

Look into joining your nearest lapidary club people! The world needs more rock hounds ✌️🇦🇺💜
@@blueyoshi8231 awesome, I’m in Newcastle NSW so I’m hoping there’s cool stuff around the area. I’ll have a look and see if I can find a club.

15:04 😲 I live in Michigan and our state stone is the Petoskey Stone. If I didn't know any better that fossil looking rock is an Aussie Petoskey!!! Here in the USA Petoskey aren't found in many states. Mainly Michigan's Northern beaches.

Man, I'm so jealous. I can't wait to see them all polished up. Got to talk my dad into taking the kayaks out now.

Good friends, great rocks and good fun on the yachts... I'm envious. Front horseshoes are more rounded in the toe area with rear shoes being more pointy. Looks like you found a hind shoe.

A good day 😁🥰. Can’t wait to see the results.
Great video! Thank you for sharing.

WOW!! Jessie, Guys and Girls!! absolutely awesome adventure with some stunning speccies to boot. Cant wait to see come cut and polishes
You and your friends and the creeks and rocks and your laughter make my heart 💜 so happy 😊✌️
What incredible finds! The colors and shapes of those rocks are interesting!

I could watch this all day lol I'm mezmerized...Can't wait for summer rock hunting in Vermont USA
Heck yeah Tracey! Hope you get some great adventures and equally brilliant rocks!!

Wow you guys really scored this time! Rockhounding at its best right here. What a great excuse for a fun day outdoors. Now you have some real treasures to enjoy on a rainy day. The thunder egg core and crystals were really a surprise I thought! You might have to polish one of those big boys 👍🏼
How fun! Thank you for the adventure.
So nice to search with friends! 👍
Pretty awesome day of pickin i dig that green chrome quartz that kept showing up

Dude....so many awesome finds! That big chunk with all the little eggs will look amazing cut and polished!
Yeah I reckon at the end of the day, that would probably be the piece of the day I reckon. It’s gonna be stunning on the inside.
Hope you’re keepin well brother!!!!
Only my husband and granddaughter would go rockhounding with me. Y’all had some awesome finds ! I would be on cloud nine with those beauties. Great job and it was good to see you on your adventure.

Oh man I hear you though. There’s more and more people out the doing it and it can make it hard. After all the exposed finds from these rains are picked out, it’ll be back to trying to find anything possible on these gravel bars.

@@Rookie_Rockounding your agates and chalcedony that you found in this vide from Australia are pretty much the same as what we find in state of Washington
