Congrats dig'n'it. Great find mate well done. They're getting bigger buddy.

 

[Bjay]

Great find Dig'n it. Would love one like that. I got out for the first time in a while also. Got about 50 tinys that don't even come close to that weight.

 

[Bjay]

**** I can't count. Only got 46 the only reason I left cause was I thought I had my 50 even thought I got a couple extra just in case last trip I got 46 too so wanted to beat that but not to be. :8

Well done Dig'n-it. Now we've both the 10g target. First there buys the beers - damn, did I just pledge that?

 

[Heatho]

Nice nugget.

What's running inverted got to do with it? It might grab your attention slightly more on a deep low-high target but that nug at 12 inches should have been a solid signal either inverted or not.

WOW... Nice nugget Dig'n it well done mate.

 

[Bjay]

Yeah can't count Missus got 53 so I'm going with that. Love to be able to show some bigger bits but

 

[SC75]

It doesn't matter Bjay, you got plenty of gold there
Did you find all that over the weekend?

 

[Bjay]

Half day Friday full day sat plus half day today. Ran the 5000 for a couple of hrs each day for nothing so resorted to the Hoover .

Great find, Dig!

 

[Dignit]

Thanks all.
Heatho ....... Not absolutely sure what inverted has to do with it. Old Hand recommended it. He uses it and finds it helps. Thought I'd give it a go.
Bjay ....... that is a great hall. You must have been busy. Great work.

Gotta spend a bit more time with the 5000 looking for a bigger bit but its hard when ya can always rely on the sdc. Was pretty messy in the wet clay and a number of times the target disappeared only to be found after a bit of head scratching stuck to the pick

Know what you mean Bjay. Went to work along an edge of a surfaced area yesterday where there was a lot of wet clay. After a couple of digs I soon moved up the slope to a dryer gravelier ground. Couldn't handle everything sticking to itself, the pick and hands. Will save the surfaced area for when it is drier.

 

[mardymoose]

Well done dig-n-it a fantastic nugget
Look forward to catching up in the not too distant future

 

[BigWave]

Great haul there Bjay. Well done indeed!

After a bit of a dry patch over the wet winter I finally had some success on Saturday near Talbot VIC and found my personal best. A 7.3g. The 7.32 doesn't include the 50c coin. Have been waiting the day to show a nugget on 50c. It was about 12 inches down under a tree root. Was using a 4500 with new 15" spoked Evo mono. From memory I was using Deep, Enhanced, Manual Tune 80, Quiet Audio, RX about 9 & Stab 8, Target Audio 12, Signal 17, Inverted.
Big thanks to PA member Old Hand who suggested trying Inverted.
I picked out as much of the mud and iron stone I could with a pin, polished it with a bit of metal polish, and gave it a wash and scrub with a tooth brush in soapy water. It could do with a soak in Ali Brite, but is good as is.
Very happy!
