Golddiggerart - Detector finds...

Thanks Goldpick for that one.... Cheers Danny.... :Y:

Well I got back out for a late night swing after cooking dinner for the wife and kids....
No pennies or silvers but I did manage to pull out some spendable coins and more bbs....The surprise find was the Silver Ring with
another Topaz..... Oh well it's officially spring so hoping the weather fines up fast so I can get out for more digs.







Happy detecting all....
Cheers GDA :Y:

Gotta be happy with that one! Only 3 more months and spring might make its way down to Tassie!

That's a splendid result mate... still a silver tick on the scoreboard !
ower: :Y:

Couple of good hunts there, that topaz ring is nice too, you're a magnet for the stuff mate.

sad no silver 8.(

but good results for a late nighter

Pardon this question Golddiggerart, what are some of the reasons you detect at night? I like to be tucked up inside by dark. I'm not being a smartass, I'm curious.

Difficult job to keep the tears at bay and have everybody happy n smiling all the time when life holds so many demands, can only share yourself fairly by taking less and giving more, still all good as long as all the variables balance well ,..... it's what we do hey !

i`m still waiting, i started with nothing and ive still got a little left

It will be nice when the traffic picks up and you get a bit more reward for your efforts Art. But you still manage to find the goodies regardless. nice couple of hunts mate. :fistpump: I seem to be missing some of the posts for some reason. i stay logged in so i get new posts but sometimes i go back and see posts that slipped me by :argh: so sorry to all if i miss your finds it's not intentional. :Y:

I miss quite a few posts until I click on the actual Threads but soon catch up with everyone's digs mate....It's all good. One thing I do now is
stay out until I at least get something good, other times it takes till the end of the dig.
As long as I get a coin I am happy. :Y:

By nature I am a night owl and always have been so being out in the dark is my daylight. Other times it's because it's the only time I can go out for a detect, it's like a meditation for me as well so the quiet mixed in with the beep helps me to clear any thoughts when I am in a bad mood which is very rarely these days.
There's also no one to stop for a chat, I don't mind chatting now and again but getting asked the same questions over and over again gets a bit to repetitive and my answers are all rehearsed so I can move on faster. :Y:

Yeah I'll have to be content with the Silver Ring this time but I still have a bit of area to grid over yet so I may get a silver out of there yet.

Yes mate another tick for me, lots of trash in the area but the 505 seems to handle it well enough, it's always been my favourite detector.

Yeah it's been very enjoyable lately for me, hustle of bustle of family life and all. 2 Topaz within a week.

I think we have something in common, I also love night detecting, really allows you to concentrate on your tones without any outside distractions - quite a relaxing time to be out and about. Sweet little ring too, has been ages since I last pulled up any type of ring. :Y:

Thats a beauty mate , lovely silver ring . I also prefer to night detect for the same reasons already given above .

Nice hunt Looks a darn sight easier than cutting and making your own blue topaz ring :lol:

Well I got out a few times this week with the nice weather we've been having.
Goldie park is still producing even though it's slim pickings, someone teared up the turf with motorbikes the little shits.
Had a full 5 and a half hours today with Dan Detector off facebook whom I've met before only briefly, he absolutely killed it with the CTX and I
managed to get $5.12 but myself and Kiara enjoyed the day, it wasn't until we were nearly finished that I decided to check the ground balance...OOPS
It wasn't even tuned in....That's the difference between the 505 and 705 one has manual balancing the other auto....I will remember to check every time I go out,
I was wondering why targets that are usually solid were a little jumpy making me second think whether to dig it or not.
Anyway my finds for the week, nothing spectacular but I am happy with my finds.

Weekly finds...



Met this young fulla Dane walking around with a 7 - 8 foot Carpet Python named Marley...



Until next time, happy detecting all...

Cheers GDA :Y:
