  1. If people would remember do not step over a rock but step on top of it and then step out away from that rock.

     Bye stepping over that rock you putting your leg right in front of that snake and he’s going to get you. 
     Bye stepping on top of that rock and step a ways off you have a good chance of being out of range of that snake hitting you.

     The best investment you will ever make is buy yourself some good snake guards.

     Above all boots is the only thing you need be wearing nugget hunting.

  2. Some years back I ran across a guy who said he had located something but he wasn’t sure what. The location was about a mile south of Rich Hill. 

     Each day he would come and dig then I’d see him go home I guess. The last time I was there he had a deep hole going but he keep coming. After 4 or 5  days I didn’t see him anymore.

     I come to the conclusion the nugget was so heavy getting it out of the hole that he pulled something and that put him in the hospital. He knew where I was camped at and the truth be known he realize he got the shaft for buying that trash.

  3. The snakes on the ground is not so much a problem as the ones that will walk up behind you. When nugget hunting I really like to have my headphones on being my hearing is not as good anymore .

     Think of it this way It would be better for you to miss that small low signal than to lose your life. I don’t care if you’re male or female we just don’t need to be out there alone anymore.

     I don’t know if my wife loves me are she just don’t have enough life insurance on me that she don’t want me going it alone anymore.

    Hug your wife and kids everyday but be sure to tell them you love them. Even like my oldest son just turned 56 I still do it.

     Would you say with all the settings the Manticore has to offer and you had the 8 X 5.5 it would out perform the Gold Monster 1000 running at 45 Kh? I know the Monster is somewhat a simple machine as in most would say a turn on and go machine. Bill Southern has a great video on it and watching it one time would give you a head start in nugget hunting .

     I’m just wondering if it’s really worth paying the difference if all you had planned on using it for was nugget hunting. It already comes with two small coils that’s ideal for nugget hunting.

     My reasoning for asking this question is I’m thinking about getting a VLF detector for nugget hunting and I don’t have the need for another coin machine. Another thing is bye the time you get that small coil for the Manticore you in almost twice the price of the 1000. That’s give are take a dollar are two.

     If anyone can answer my question would be you and a honest one at that.

     PS Maybe try Nome Alaska one more time.They got something like a bed and breakfast I want to try.hahaI 

  5. I emailed a dealer the other day just to see if maybe he knew something or even talked with the powers that be.

     

     

     

     I left this space so I could post all that he knew. If you’re having trouble reading it is because he didn’t know more than you and I.

     Sad as it is that’s it in a nutshell.

  6. John I don’t know how the weather is for you up there but down here in South Texas it’s hotter than two kinds of hell . It’s not that I’ve been there it’s just a roomer that I heard.

     Got my coat out for the week being it’s going to be in the low hundreds this week.

     Keep coming with the gold pictures.

     Thanks!

  7. Above all the dangers that’s been talked about here is man wanting something for nothing. It’s the guy with a big smile on his face that you think you could trust forever but that’s not true.

     I know of one person that got killed in Arizona and they still don’t know who done it.

     It really don’t pay to go it alone anymore!

     That’s the sad truth of it all.

  8. In about 65 the biggest still sites ever discovered was found in Mississippi. I remember seeing pictures of it but don’t remember what county it was in . My Dad did run moonshine and may been a customer more than a runner. I do know my mother and him parted company long before this took place.

     I’d say you’re going to find more trash around that site you found than money. The people working it most didn’t have a pot to pee in are a window to throw it out. They were working for the man and he didn’t get his hands dirty.
