Two Days Ago In An Old Patch


Recommended Posts

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.

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".

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.
