Hello DMG.. I'm from Sydney as well down in the Sutherland Shire.
I both detect and pan. I haven't been detecting out much since I got started in all this.
Where are some places you go?
Cheers!
Jon

Hey John I dont go near the bush in snake season,so I just hit the beach till winter time then I will head off somewhere.
Just researching hard right now on a spot I will hit next winter but im always looking for potential spots,Im not a pro just casual/hobby type of guy.
I like to research hard before I try anywhere,but the beaches are a good place for me to keep up the practice till winter time.

Gotcha. I've only seen 1 snake so far this year and wouldn't you know it was an Eastern Brown snake in Ophir.
I do a lot of research as well. From 1851 onward usually. But I find that a lot of spot I actually go to, do not have as many details as other well known spots.
I've only been doing this since October, but I've already found a bit of flour gold. Still hoping to get my first nugget someday.

Welcome to the forum DMG.
I enjoy detecting, though am out of action due to my battery packing it in.
Most of my detecting has been further south round Mogo and Bodalla, though have also had a swing at Tuena and near Stuart Town.
