Welcome to the site and please share some of your finds with us, we love to read what others are finding. Also please show some photos because some of us here can't read to well and like pretty pictures.

Thank all of you for the greetings and warm welcome.  Am back after dealing with some of life's curve balls.  My gold bug 2 has led me to find some nice clinkers and flakes, but nothing too exciting yet, in a creek that is walking distance from my house.  Am excited to get back out and find some more......

With dredging banned in California, I've been sniping and metal detecting.  No fabulous finds, but am still paying my bills and putting food on my table, as the fines and clinkers, along with pickers do add up.  Did detect a 6 dwt nugget though.  Had to put out an illegal fire on a nearby mining claim that an idiot started.  She tried to burn her boyfriends travel trailer...... and is now in jail.  That was an exciting (not good excitement) event.  I much prefer the excitement of finding pickers and nugs!  

I have 3 metal detectors.  Two minelabs and a gold bug 2.  I like the gold bug 2, cuz it is so much lighter (I am 71 years old and it's getting more difficult to swing the minelabs).  I will probably sell the minelabs......

Really enjoy reading what all of you guys and gals share on this site.

Jeffree
