[QUOTE="loamer, post: 40413, member: 981"] First baby nugget find - 1972, panning at Slaty Creek and still have it. First specie - probably the 1980s with an old VLF. Finding 'at will' :lol: - 14 hour days,latest gear, up-to-date coils, spend $$ on research, walking, walking, walking. Noticed an interesting reply to a post - I commented on another post that i spent a lot of time walking without a detector and a comment was made 'why have a $6000 detector sitting in the car'. I like to see the lay of a set of diggings -whats where etc etc. The detector is a distraction. I notice Teemore you are in Vic. I may get belted for this - find gold with a detector in Victoria, you can find gold anywhere in the world. we have the worst mineralised ground - hence the reason detectors get tested here. [/QUOTE]
