Persistance Pays Off

[Jim.]

Hi all,

The wife and I went out for a swing on the weekend, after about 6 hours of digging rubbish, chasing ground noise and kicking hot rocks away I was well and truly over it and ready for a beer. The missus looked at me and never missed a beat (she was in the zone) I think she said something like harden up mate. Anyhow to cut a long story short we (she) bagged three before the sun went down.

I'm sure I'll never hear the end of it

Very nice indeed Jim, definitely prepare for a lifetime of banter from the wife :lol:

What sort of detector was used on these?

Nugget.

Well done to the missus, detecting definately takes a lot of persistence and patience but the rewards make it worth it.

re the hot rocks , did you crack any open with a hammer to check for nugs inside ?

Hi all,

Thanks for your interest in our finds

Nugget, we run a minelab 3500 with a coiltek 16" round mono, a great combo for our needs.

HeadsUp, no mate, never bother breaking up hot rocks, theres to many of them we just work around them.

PS I forgot to add we lrft a deep target in the ground as I left our big pick at home (I'll never here the end of that one either) we refilled the hole until our next visit

Always listen to the misses. Mine once told me to detect a spot, it was kind of a lame place to look at and I said "yeah yeah one day". 12 months later a bloke I know found a nugget there the size of your fist! He showed it to me and when he told me where, well you can imagine what went through my mind. It was only 6 inches deep too.

Jim - a great outing with those results getting a pass to do another trip will not be a problem!

Lots of character to that gold. May be worth a return!

Well done!
