Popular Post brogansown Posted August 26, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2018 My brother and I drove to an old heavily detected patch on Friday and between us found over a dozen pieces/nuggets. Although we had our Minelabs with us, we just used the Gold Bug 2's as we immediately found a couple. Most of the pieces were within two inches of the surface, but the larger specimen (5.7grams) was down about 4 inches and was loud. My point is, I guess, don't give up on old patches especially if some time has passed to allow wind and water to alter the ground a bit. And we do have wind and thunder showers here in Eastern Oregon all the time. As usual stay tight to the ground and swing slow. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry in Idaho Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Gary, Those are some really good pieces, especially since they came from a worked out site. Keep it up my friend and when you are ready for the Equinox, let me know. Glad to see you postings some Success too. Tell the others I said "Hello".

brogansown Posted September 2, 2018 Author Share Posted September 2, 2018 Thanks Gerry. The guys all say hello back. Gus even got out to visit Mike with his new wife and he is recovering nicely and wanting to get out with a detector. We manage to eke out a few nuggets in all the old places, nearly all of which you've been to. Looking forward to seeing you again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
