You all are so funny! I loved Sandford & Son back in the day and TBBT now too!

I got out for an hour or so yesterday to a local creek... 0.12 grams of beautiful Colorado placer 😄 I was on a tiny creek so I built a solid dam and ran the whole creek flow thru my Bazooka Prospector. Was SOOO nice to be outside on the stream. I wore river sandals and quickly had numb feet, last time in sandals until next spring I guess

Hope you all are getting some gold!

I last got out on Sunday to Montana City, the river was nice. Not too many leaves and only one other prospector!

Now though looking out the window and the "feels like" temp at only 8 degrees, I wish I would have stayed longer. Still have a fat pan sitting in the garage, got all my pumps drained and inside just in time. My fat pan was a solid block of ice this morning hahah. That probably killed those weird worms in there (if I'm lucky)... Probably some decent color in there though. I went DEEP. Was a hell of a chore filling it up though. Items of note were two golf balls, 3 iron concretions and a spoon. (stainless, but I was just thinking to myself the other day I needed a new spoon for my arsenal..)

<3 Yep, looks like waders, flannel shirts and the long gloves from here on out.

Yup, fleece and waders season commences! Won't stop me but may slow me down just a little. My biggest gold production in the last year was in Feb tho so not toooo slowed down!

I know its nothing sketchy but keep in mind that there are some young ones on here that we don't want to get in trouble with the parents. it only takes one link for the parents to say "you cant get back on there again". I enjoy listening to some of the adventures of the younger kids on here.

Oh that was not just in reference to you. i cant remember his name but he was interested in drywashing and things of that nature. i believe his dad wound up joining the forums as well. i think he was like 10 or 12ish

Props to Kemper for respecting my request...thanks Brother!

Kevin, If you would like a 48" Bazooka Miner, I know someone who has one for a great price! $275 shipping included!!! You can find him on FaceBook...Mike Talaga.

I also gave him your treasure net ID to contact you to see if you're interested as well.

I think it has been, which is fine. It was a link to a bikini contest if anyone is wondering. I posted it under your random thought request, but if someone was worried that some youth might see it I can understand that. A PM would probably have been sufficient. If someone is allowed to view your thread only they will find it free from the content. If anyone has such a concern I hope they are aware of what else is available for viewing on the internet. I don't browse looking for anything obscene and my post was not. I noticed you capitalized "MY" in your complaint. Excuse me for thinking otherwise.

thanks! Guess I can be a bit of a prude sometimes....

30" Sniper is the perfect machine for what you are about to encounter.

Do you have to classify for the 30" sniper or can you shove right on that.
