gday out there im Jason. just recently joined this site and glad to see quite a few west aussies here. like a lot on this forum i am quite new to detecting and have recently been able to do 2 trips trying my luck. first trip i got quite a few small nuggets but the latest trip i managed to find 231 small peices. i still cant get over how lucky i was finding this spot and gold. so thats it im totally addicted to this. i love the bush and to be able to travel freely. im no longer working due to a leg injury which flares up out bush but just cant sit around anymore. i brought my first detector which is a gpx 5000 and has paid for itself already. hope to meet some of ya,s and great to be here. cheers jason |

Jason Welcome to you. I'm also brand new to the forum. I just love this site and wow! 231 bits how exciting that must have been. love to see some pictures of the gold I'm here in Northern California USA. Sure am envious of you all in the West. I was there in 2006 for 5 weeks in the bush swinging did not do that good on the gold, but came to love it there. Here's a nice 1/4 oz bit I got dredging a few years back in California.
