[QUOTE="Willsy, post: 520223, member: 16906"] Hi folks, The old man and I are closing in on a long held dream of ours to try out gold prospecting. We are booked in the do a 1 day guided tour/trip on a Saturday out of Creswick, Victoria with 'Gold and Relics' in early December. We have decided to make a weekend of this and are camping at Slaty creek for a few days just south of Creswick. I have heard that you can go panning in the creek and fossicking around the creek. My question is.....on the Friday before we do the tour should we just try our luck panning in the creek or should we hire a detector (1 days hire) from Ballarat as we pass through on our way to Creswick? We are completely new to this and are just looking to have a crack so any advice about Slaty creek and whether we should just do panning or detecting (or both) that would be great. We are thinking its safe to assume that the creek is running. Thanks in advance Dale [/QUOTE]
