Gold Fever

Saturdays at 12pm Eastern Time on the Outdoor Channel (some repeats shown at 6am eastern on Sat)
If you are reading this and have never heard of the Gold Fever show... chances are you will like it! ;-) I was talking to a co-worker about Gold Rush and he recommended a show called Gold Fever on the Outdoor Channel. Turns out this show has been on forever with 180 episodes or so... but I never heard of it. Starting watching it and it's great! The main character Tom Massie is a Gold Prospector who loves to metal detect, dredge, sluice, hike down into old gold and silver mines... he's NUTS about GOLD and SILVER. He brings his whole family in on the hunt which is great. My only complaint is that they don't seem to have any marathon days of old episodes like they do on Discovery and the Science Channels for shows. I must see more of these episodes without buying $1000 worth of DVD's which are available. Check it out and discuss here if you'd like. I've been metal detecting for several years now, but this is the first time I've started seriously looking at gold panning equipment. Also notable, the commercials are short... and they are usually all about gold prospecting and minelab metal detectors! There are also tons of webclips from the TV show on the Outdoor Channel's website, so go check it out now!
