Hello Everyone new member from Canada living in Sandringham

[Broncox]

Any local advice would be greatly appreciated. I hunt with a Ace250 and have recently purchased the AT Pro about a month or so before leaving Canada and have had really good luck with both machines. Is there any local laws that I might need to know about? Or anybody interested in a hunt?
Thanks
Trent

Hi Trent,

Are you coming to Australia? If so, do you know which state you're visiting as the laws and regulations can vary between each of them.

Cheers,
Nugget

Hi Nugget. I have been here since Sunday. living outside Melbourne in Sandringham...about a block from Port Phillip Bay.
I'm here till April

Ah yep I see :lol:

What sort of detecting are you planning on doing, local parks, beaches or bush?

Check out this topic regarding permits and regulations, just look under the Victoria heading https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=125

G'day Trent, being named "Broncox" should REALLY mean you are going to live in Queensland where the Bronco's are one of the 3 Rugby League Teams playing in the National Rugby League competition.
I suppose Sandringham is ok, i was brought up in Melbourne in Noble Park.
Good luck with your fossicking/ hunting and we'll here from you in the future in the "yella " pages.

G'day Jack..lol I kinda got the name by mistake many years ago and it stuck, used to drive a Ford Bronco XLT and tried using that username but the site would only accept 7 letters.lol I hope to get to Brisbane in the near future as the girlfriend works there occasionally..

Thanks for the info Nugget, I will give it a read.
I have done mostly park hunting for the last 20 years or so, but now with the AT pro it opens up a lot of doors..would love to try a bush hunt or some e-prospecting
