He worked on a factory assembly line for 30 years, a brutally hot place without AC. He would take empty gatorade bottles, refill them with tap water, and place 4 of them in the freezer for work the next dsy Im in construction, thats my daily routine. Except, I buy cases of water, usually throw 6-7 in freezer at night. That saves me from buying ice. 3 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237415 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Come on Reg.

Reg Wilson Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 For short prospecting trips a few sourdough rolls (buns) and cheese and fruit are adequate. For longer trips (fortnight or so) sausages and chops (cutlets) which are used in the first few days and from then on its vegetarian, mainly pasta and rice based dishes, with whatever vegetables will last the distance. A few beers and a bottle of my home made whiskey are also included. Naturally plenty of water from my rainwater tank. 6 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237438 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goldseeker5000 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Mackerel stays in my ATV bag every time I'm out detecting. They taste great and it gives me plenty of energy. Better than vegetarian, pasta or rice. Sometimes Spiced Rum and Coke for a celebration swig when I pop a nice nugget out of the ground. Reg, take a hot bath with some camomile and Epsom salts and just calm down, the whole world has gone off their rocker. It's not just America. Australia is becoming quite Orwellian from what I'm seeing. Oh and by the way jerky is the bomb. You should try it more often. Packed with protein and energy. Just what we need out their detecting. 4 1 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237460 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gold Ryder Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 Canned fish and protein bars are my staple out digging and hunting. 4 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237461 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I have eaten a good bit of Roo several times and a few lizards also. Very good with the right person cooking them, the lizard is best over a camp fire with a little salt pepper and garlic. Yes I have been to your country once for about 2 months for work. 5 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237463 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sourdough Scott Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 What @klunker doesn't know, is that I bring two lunches. One for me and our doggies, and a special lunch for him. He doesn't seem to mind Kale, Tofu and Rice cakes. 2 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237468 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reg Wilson Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 GS5000, that canned fish looks disgusting, and I have managed to find the odd colour on my pasta and rice diet, so I shall give your culinary advice a miss thanks. You are right about my country going down the dunny. We bought the maps from you. PS the correct spelling for the second application is....there, not their. PPs Give up the smokes. Not good for your health. 1 2 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/22145-snacks-for-detecting-or-gold-hunting/page/3/#findComment-237477 Share on other sites More sharing options...
