This spot has definitely not been worked before because I find it can play for gold that I thought I would be fine. Good morning or good afternoon everyone. Welcome if you're new here, my name is Pauli. Today is a hot summer day on Vancouver Island and me and Cody are gonna go sniping. I haven't been to this spot in over a year and a half so for sure they'll be gold waiting for us there. There should be. There's tickles. What a beautiful place. Look at that relief. How majestic. Watch this. The tools we're using today is this Poke Stick. Good for scratching crevices. This other Poke Stick good for moving bigger rocks. The snuffer bottle. You just suck up handy. And of course the GoPro to film the ventures under voila. And now we're ready so we're switching to GoPro. There we go. I accidentally took Emily Rodell's left boot. So my left boot is actually still a normal ask. The plus side to sniping in the summertime is that the water is so low you're able to reach the deeper crevices. The negative side however is how salty and dirty it becomes. Here's our first piece of gold for the day. Now I'm accidentally shooting the GoPro in wide so everything might just look a little bit smaller than usual. I think I was pretty fortunate to find a pocket full of little pieces of gold. Especially as my first spot that I went to. It's kind of hard to tell with the colors of these GoPro's but there's a lot of gold here. This is another reason why I just love this spot. Gold keeps showing up year after year. So I keep showing up. There's that little pocket. There must be like 15 little pieces in there and the two nice ones. It's these intersections of cracks right here that typically hold a lot of gold. Especially the further you go down. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. I've been getting a lot of requests to make more underwater gold videos. If you want to see more let me know in the comments and hit that subscribe button. This stuff is called hard pack. It's gravel that's been sitting for so long that it almost turns into concrete. They'll be gold in it but more importantly there will be gold underneath it. I just saw another little guy hiding underneath the clay. I just found a nice little picker. It went up the snuffer so it's not a nugget. Anytime you see lead you want to take that out of the river too. When you're working with clay underwater it's important to be very patient because there's going to be some times where you're just going to wait. At least four decades until that smoke clears. I'm going to clean up all the overburden in the area to make room for more crevices because there's just too much material that's falling down into the crevice. Coating just found a little piece of gold. That's a nice little crevice. This spot has definitely not been worked before and I know that because I'm finding way more gold than I thought it would be fine. Even though gold this size doesn't really add up to much it is still super addictive to find gold in nature like this. If you've never been underwater gold hunting before I highly recommend it. How you doing? Moving things. Moving things. I had to open up my wet suit so I could cool off. It's actually really really warm here. Plus these eight-mill wet suits are ridiculously warm. People think that since I'm in Canada it's really cold but on Vancouver Island we get really hot summers and oh decent winters but nothing too cold. If you ever want to get into sniping get an eight-mill semi-dry wet suit. Shout out to Wilson's diving. Victoria, let's see. I'm predicting there's going to be a couple pieces of gold under the floor rock here. Right here we got a boiled Cody croc waiting for the right time to snap for the gold. So we just keep swimming swimming swimming swimming. I found this thin crack here and after spending a lot of time trying to clear out the rocks I found one little piece of candy. I just spotted a piece of gold that I didn't even see until the fog went away. Ooh, a piece of candy. It went up the stiffer so it wasn't that big. Cody just found three pieces at the bottom of this little crevice. Check it out buddy. This little guy stuck set. Where'd it go? I started to get really tired but it's so hard to stop especially when you keep finding more gold. After messing around for just a little bit longer I decided you know what? That's it for Polly. So that's it for me. I'm already exhausted. It's only been a couple hours but I think we did really well so I'm going to get out of my wet suit and I'll take a look at the gold that we found. So I'm out of the wet suit now obviously and it is a really nice day but it's even better because I found a lot more gold than I thought I would. So let's go have a look. First let's check out Cody's pan. Hey my signature is on there. Oh that's not bad. Look at that. Not tea bag. Not tea bag. I really like the gold here. It's always so yellow. Nice and shiny. How much weight do you think that is? I love to keep you going. Perfect. Alright now to the little pan. Don't be deceived. It's how you use it. Alright here we go. Look at that. I got some lead pellets in there. It's always good to take those out of the river and then you got the beautiful yellow candy. I'm going to say that's probably... I'm usually wrong. Four ounces. No honestly probably about a gram and a half. Maybe two grams? I don't know. So here's the gold all dried up. Doesn't look too bad. I'm actually really happy with that. I really really do like this spot. Unfortunately no big nuggets today but maybe next time. Let's put it on the scale. 45 ounces. On the nose. Wow actually two grams on the nose. Very rare you get a solid number. Cool. So two grams of gold isn't bad. However if you were to calculate that in dollar form it's around 128 dollars so luckily I don't do this for the gold value. However I have found over a thousand dollars worth of gold before in a single day but those days are kind of rare. Anyways that is it for this video.
