    Oh this was fun ! Very exciting ! We have lots of gold here but I think you have found the better way of doing it compared to having a pick shovel and bucket and planing by hand . It sounds like you have a good spot you have the signs of gold for sure ! Good luck !

    My question is does it mess with the fish habitat? Knew a guy who had a gin pole setup on front of his flat fender jeepy. 😊

    • @BackcountryAlaska
      @BackcountryAlaska  11 днів тому

      It’s supposed to stir up the sediments for the fish to feed and aerate the water. Then spring floods come through and you can’t ever tell a dredge was there. Pretty low impact form of mining

    what are the rules up there in Alaska for dredging like that ?, looks like a lot of fun....from a holy shit to a holy snechk, that made my morning, have a great fall hunting season up there.

      @@ericmartens5930 oh it’s a bit of a learning curve to figure out all the rules! Two permits required for recreational dredging on state land. It gets more complicated from there. Thanks for the kind words!

    Why dont you move large rocks before you point the nozzle anywhere near them so you only suck up small gravels ?.

      @@prospectorpete most of the time the large rocks are falling in front of the nozzle. Ideally yes you’re moving the big ones first but it’s also hard to film and move rocks 😂
