[QUOTE="Dihusky, post: 575064, member: 10304"] Never seen the show, but they obviously have a following. I would imagine where they were prospecting would be fairly recognisable by anyone knowing the area, if they have broken the law they need to be 'hung out to dry' and it made very public. We have enough problems keeping fossicking areas open without idiots + TV cameras flouting the law. If guilty of the alleged offence, the fine for a 'commercial' venture needs to be huge to make the message loud and clear that they were breaking the law and nobody is exempt. :mad: :mad: [/QUOTE]
