Has anyone ever been to Gundagai to prospect there for gold and/or gems? I have been doing some research and the place seems decent for fossicking and also fishing. Any information regarding the gold brearing waterways would be greatly appreciated! :Y:

I didn't end up going this weekend because of the weather and other reasons, but these are the results from the last trip; probably 4 hours of crevicing and I didn't have enough time to get the whole crevice! Hope it's still like the way I left it! :/ :Y: The bigger pieces of gold that I...

Has anyone ever been to Golden Gully near Adelong? I have heard great stories about this place and was wondering what part parts of the creek people have found gold at (top half or bottom half or whatever). Not after anyone's glory hole or anything lol :lol: . Going to Adelong so I'll post what...
