[QUOTE="Jon, post: 114829, member: 717"] The GT and FT will find small gold if you could somehow be lucky enough to find a 6" coil for it. Years ago I had an FT and had a 6" coil on it and found lots of sub gram bits with it. I was using it one day and an old bloke came up to me where I was and said the gold there was only small so I should get the 6 inch coil to improve my chances. I got one and was glad for the advice. Don't go too fast swinging it, don't run the sens too high, if its screaming and groaning all the time you will be. Bit long in the tooth but something's better than nothing. Who knows, there might be a good bit out there shallow with your name on it. My best on the FT was a 5 ounce bit down 10" in a mullock heap. Was a good signal too. That was using the 11", think it was 11 was a long time ago now, DD coil. [/QUOTE]
