[QUOTE="Jadedigger, post: 424735, member: 13047"] Hi Everyone, I am wondering where the best place is to find gold in Creswick? My dad and I first tried detecting in a place where there was too much metal rubbish. The minelab we hired went off like a siren. Can't believe how many beer cans are under the ground and old nails. My dad has a Garrett Ace 250 that he got for $14 second-hand, except the display screen not working which seems to be a common fault with this one. Not worth buying new screen for $300. But it does pick up a tiny nugget I purchased from Sovereign Hill, when I hide the nugget. It is picking up nails and metals inches under. Any advice to find a nugget in Creswick? Or the closest place to Pakenham. We thought we found one today and dad was nearly hysterical, turned out to be a golden tree root with metal around. Thanks! Jade :) :D :rainbow: [/QUOTE]
