cjadair3 Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Second time out since I bought my Gold Monster and hadn’t scored any gold thus far. Went out this past weekend with Mike Slater to a place that’s been “hit hard” and we both scored some nice nuggets and our fair share of trash. I love those “hard hit” spots. These are mine. About .8 grams worth. Mike scored a bunch too. I wish every hunt could be like this or better. 😃 12 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcgator Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 WTG Chuck! It was great fun watching you get those nuggets. Now you have the ear for it so theres lots of nuggets to come for you. But you do have admit you eyeballed one when it popped out from behind that rock. When I get back from Montana I'll post mine. Cause some poor dry washer fella missed a nice 2 gram sitting on the bottom of thier hole just waiting for someone to come along and grab it. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micro Nugget Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 The "fair share of trash" may help explain why others missed these nuggs. Just goes to show you what a determined prospector can accomplish especially if armed with a high tech detector like the GM1000. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started pulling some birdshot right off then snagged two dinks and 4 birdshot in the same spot. They either didn't detect it at all or just gave it a quick listen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again for takin me out there.Ya, can’t believe I even saw that one, especially without my readers on.🤓 That was in that pocket where I snagged like 3 other one’s. The monster kept going off, pretty cool. 😉 Edited May 16, 2018 by cjadair3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugget Shooter Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 Good Job man and yes that area has been pounded with PI and VLF by many a great detectorist (forum members too) over the years and you earned every one of them. Keep up the good work my friend! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t score much in the first couple hours. Mike hit a couple, then seemed like an hour or so of trash. Then we hit a nice patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boulder dash Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I think I recognize the look of that gold. If so there's gobs of nuggets left. He who digs the most wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
