[QUOTE="SteelPat, post: 432339, member: 4467"] When I have decided on an area and want to work it properly (ie hill slope), I see a tree in the distance and use that as a marker and walk in a straight line towards that tree. If I get no targets, I turn around, pick another tree maybe a meter up from where I started and walk back. I keep doing this until I find a target. Once I have found a target that's gold, I tend to spiral out from that target and try to locate if its just a one off or its part of a run of gold. If its flat ground, I basically lay out a grid using trees, bushes etc until I find a target. And then I spiral out from that target and work the ground thoroughly. I dont always find gold but its always good to have some sort of method in place. [/QUOTE]
