Caught up with a few of the PA boys on sat. Had an awesome day with sc75, chewy, Chuky boy and hard luck.
I only managed one bit for the day and sc75 got a few for the collection. Not the sort of ground I usually detect and it was great to have a crack in a new area.
I had an rdo today and went out to redeem myself after only getting one the other day haha.
About 10 mins in I got a signal in bedrock, spent 3 odd hours smashing it up for 20 nuggets which totaled just over 2 grams. Was hard yakka. Funnily enough it was as hard as rock (dad joke).
Here's a pic of the bedrock after I retrieved the first nugget or 3. I lost a few nugs in the process as well. I found one and then dropped it and couldn't find it again. I didn't bother looking too hard as there was still signals in the bedrock.
Here's a pic of the bedrock when I was done, my hands, arms and back copped a flogging lol.
And here's a pic of the finds minus the ones that got away haha.

Slipped over to Beaufort yesterday with young Matty. Went out today and got the 2 on the coin out of an old timers hole. They join the 2 from last week that are the ones on the right.
