Where's the biggies

Just spent 5 days around Maryborough
and picked up 105 littles for 8.2 grams

The biggest being 0.6 cant to get onto any size
So where are you guys hidding the buggers





Over the last 3 trips have collected over 200 bits
for about about 15 Grams BUT NO REAL SIZE
Tis doin me head in





Paddy the piddler picker upper

Geez Paddy! Gold is gold mate. Most folks wouldn't find 200 bits in a lifetime.

If you're so worried about finding all the tiddlers, let me come along and relieve you of them.

I think we're stuck with the littlies now mate. Maybe the biggies are down below 30" but I have enough trouble digging a foot now.

Robert

just got to walk over them bro

looks like you are setup to ping the small ones, what size coil you running?
maybe slap on a 18in plus round coil and max out your machine for more depth on the big stuff

Hi guys

Thanks for the replies and advice
Might be time to stop using the little coil and
start using the 11 and 16 round coils in the future

Paddy

Yer want big ??

Take a look at me fuckin guts feller, me mates call it the fuckin Keg of smeg.

at least some a you blokes can see yer fuckin coil, i cant even see mi bloody arm rest

must be all them pork scratchings i eat ay

FG

Holy hell, he ate the 4WD, and the caravan and a few to many emuroos

Hey Fatguts

If i could just get a few nuggies half the size of your gut
By the way is there anything you have not eaten

Paddy thats a nice haul of little un's....I'm sure the 11" would still sniff them out too and with better chance of hearin the deeper ones, if there are any left out there.

Coil size should be selected by the ground depth you are searching, obviously you are doing a great job with that detector you are using....If you walk over one in range of that coil you will score it no problems!

Thats a nice collection of pieces and it all adds up. Now go find some more

Paddy whack the 11" mono on m8. If there's abig one down there it'll find it.
I found a scout buckle at a measured 28"(I have marked etched on my pick at 2" intervals)using a 12" NFA mono. I went thru 15" of pushed wash, 6" of topsoil, another 4" of natural wash and there it was a further 3" down in red clay. You can believe I thought it was at least a 5 ounce nugget.
I've dug lots of other targets at 12" a better with the same coil.

Robert

Hi guys

Got these in the past few years all with the bigger coils
maybe i need to leave the little sucker at home

Nice work Paddy.
Time to man up though mate and get out the big coils like a 24inch eliptical or 22 inch round.
Remember,there is no such thing as a small gold only field.
Ditch the bungy as what dosent kill you will only make you stronger

Aaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrr!
