Popular Post PhaseTech Posted July 15, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 15, 2018 There was a spot that I had driven past hundreds of times over the years, and always in the back of my mind was some old timer telling me "I got a few bits there back in the SD days". But it just didn't "look" good. Well, I will never think that again! I decided to finally stop there after having a bad spell, and a bit of renewed interest in the GPX5000 teamed up with the 15" Evo coil. Well in short time I got 3 bits for 1.4 grams, and a heap of junk targets. I decided to go back for another look, but this time with a 12" Evo coil, and this was the next lot of finds: 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that was super frustrating on the day. I think the nugget slipped back into the hole at some point and then I got a signal on that bit of ferrous off to the side of the hole. I couldn't work out why it appeared to keep moving, and then it was all of a sudden back under the dirt!! It all made sense after I filled the hole in and rechecked, and got another faint signal. Luckily the hole wasn't too deep! Got a couple more videos to come on future hunts at that patch. It was very fun while it lasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigsAlot Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 I learned that less in my area. Now I pull the dirt at least a foot from the hole. Then move the checked dirt to another pile off to the side, never back in the hole. Just never know if the is a deeper target. Plus some times it just seems gold wants to run from us. Good hunting.
