[QUOTE="cecc, post: 270972, member: 5894"] Smoky I hear you, what gets us is the draconian laws here in QLd compared to other states, the highest fees and the least area's to go and enjoy our pastime. Yes there will always be those who do the wrong thing and that's where an inspector can come and clean it up. But most of us would like to use a highbanker, with the utmost respect for the bush and surrounding area. I have taken so much garbage out of the creek, because I love it, being there with my mates having a chuckle and a good old yarn while digging and classifying and having a pan. NSW and Vic they can use petrol motors and battery powered pumps, and most of them dig a channel back to the original water source so it goes back and being filtered over the rocks and gravel.....yeah I was a cowboy too, chasing brums up in the Snowy. All we want is a fair go....and what get's up our nose is the highest cost of fees here in QLD, for what, little or no designated area's to go have a dig, draconian laws about how a bloke can just pump a bit of water into a banjo or banker, come on. See what is the issue here, no wonder people decide to step outside the law, when they get pushed too hard, all we want is a fair go and we aint getting here in QLD. [/QUOTE]
