Hi Everyone
Im from Mackay with a new found hobby/sport. Im a keen Fisherman ( not so successful and a crabber (successful). Now I have also picked up a new interest which brings me here.
Bought myself a Minelab gold monster 1000 and a pan to try something new. Unfortunately Mackay seems to be not so popular for fossicking or close to popular spots. I have to learn everything about this hobby. Even though Mackay is not famous for gold but I believe gold is everywhere, its just that some places have more and others (like Mackay) not so much. I have 2 kids 8 and 9 who are absolutely stunned by the idea of "Treasure Hunting" and I wish to take them out and find at least a piece for each. Leaving kids aside, I would am very much interested in getting my first little piece.
Im not going to nag anyone but would be greatful for any pointers anyone could throw in. Im sure its just like fishing and hunting where you have to put in the hard yards and im ready for it. Would be great to meet someone from Mackay region.
Thanks for reading Guys/Gals
