Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

In a nutshell, I ‘m an avid dumpster diver, scrapper, picker, treasure hunter and underwater connoisseur. I prowl the city streets in search of dumpster loot, curbside treasures & scrap metal as well as scour the river bottoms for lost valuables during the summer months when I can scrounge up enough money for gas.

Hi Mike, I use to work in a small local wholesale fishing store. We sold tons of those Berkley gulp. Retail price on those gulp ranges from $6/bag and up. The spray is about $9/bottle. Berkley is a popular company. Love your videos.

My wife and I use to do some dumpster diven at our place of work. The owner's had lotsa moolah and would toss some good stuff and then go buy shiny new. Around 35yrs ago a buddy and me hauled scrap for a couple of years. That's back when there was alot of great stuff layin around. Our county and surrounding dried up and we were outta business. Once they counted truck weight at payout that was a good day. No he didn't turn around and tillem they gooft.

Hey Mike, you can take one of those crab sprays and pour it into the more empty container to recharge what you have in there. DO NOT LEAVE GULP ON YOUR HOOK, when it dries out it’s like concrete. Good luck!

Mike, I been watching you pick ballasts...for what I understand you sell them to the scrapyard as a whole...since you actually have the tools in your storage, I suggest you to open them...you will like what you will find inside since the smaller ballasts usually have between 150 to 200 grams of copper inside, and it's quite easy to pluck it out of the iron block that is around it. Usually all you need is a small tool like a fromer or wrench and a hammer... Look for the welding ( if it is even welded) and hit it a couple of times to break it, and most of the times after the 2 first hits it all come loose very fast. Hope this has helped you getting some extra bucks... The copper and the iron block are inside the metal sleeve, just use a wire cutter or something similar to open the sleeve .
