oldies1955 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Well..after replacing the timing chain on the 22R in the 4runner....which is about as much fun as pulling nose hairs for 12 hrs straight...I felt I needed to get away. Went out and hit some creeks and got the big skunk. Its amazing you you can go waaaaay back in a creek and still dig up little bits of metal and wire. Where does it come from??? I usually go all the way to the head of the creeks and dont see any kind of mining operations or anything. Its just a mystery...kind of like where is the gold! Oh well, I got skunk #4 out of the way....one less skunk till I find some gold again. Hope everyone is doing better. Taking Pops out on Monday. Hes my good luck charm Tom H.

fishing8046 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 I'm working on my 30 plus skunk and I'm starting to wonder why I stick with it but I can always catch a fish that skunk is very rare for me. Maybe that is the draw is that I can't figure the pattern as for wher and how to find gold but look out when I do Ha Ha !Merry Christmas to all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick in Havasu Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Hello Greg. The only pattern and location I ever found on Mead was Vegas Wash.Jig & Pig, and white spinnerbaits.Too bad you can drywash and detect that area now !!keep swingin'Patrick.....

Its fun just to go out and explore. The gold is a bonus. You'l get over the yellow stuff eventually. Just keep at it.Tom H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldies1955 Posted December 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Tom, I sure hope you are using a genuine Toyota belt on that...Anyway , the next trip will produce gold for sure! EETs a chain!....And just a single roller at that. Dern Toyota crippled themselves by not going with a double roller and a couple of beefier chain guides. Its the weak link on 22R motors. Other then that they are a little better then a Chevy 350 as far as durability. Just dont run them out of water! Warp city. Next trip....may get it ...may not....either way it will be fun Ive got about 15 more washes to explore in the area before I try another place.One of them may give me a little goober or ...not.Tom H.
