Hi everybody, bitten by the gold bug!

Hi all,

My name is Rob and i'm new here, I bought some chips for everyone, I'll leave them on this table here.

After accidentally watching a bunch of YouTube videos about panning my gf and I finally got off our butts and gave it a go last weekend at Slaty Creek. I filmed it and am gonna upload the vids to YouTube to document how much better we get (hopefully). I am now 100% addicted. I wanna save up for a metal detector but I foresee every weekend being spent panning from now on.

I have learned so much from this forum it's been an amazing resource so thanks everyone

Welcome Rob,what is the name of your YouTube channel?

 

[Wheremuhgoldat]

G'day Eldorado

The channel is only new so its hard to find(damn algorithm) but its called "Dunky and the Rav3n". Weird name but theres a long, boring explanation.

There are a few videos on there but our first gold one is called "Beginner Gold Panning || Adventures in Slaty Creek Australia Part 1"

Thanks for asking mate any interest is appreciated
