Hi guys,
I was fishing miles up a stream about a year ago and bumped into a random guy digging into bedrock with a spoon... yep, digging into bedrock with a spoon. In the middle of no where. I never knew anything about crevicing at the time, so was a little creeped out and assumed the guy was possibly not right in the head. I built up the courage to have a talk with him to find out what was going on. I was fully prepared to use my fly rod as a weapon to defend myself from the crazy bloke digging into rocks with a spoon on a random stream in the middle of no where... and that was the day I found out about crevicing. Have been addicted ever since!
Have been lurking around the forum for a couple days. What an incredible amount of information!
Located near Geelong and I am considering joining the local prospecting club as I am finding it a little boring going out panning and crevicing by myself all the time. Hopefully I can meet a few decent people to spend a day with out in the bush, rather than just talking to myself for 8 hours.
I spend more time on streams with my crevicing kit than I do with a fishing rod these days. I have found some good gold. Nothing huge. nothing of any great value. But geez I'm having a ball doing it.
I do plan on getting a proper detector soon. I do have a cheaper $400 one and it's not much chop so I'll probably give it away to a younger kid to have fun with.
I have a lot of research to do in regards to getting a detector, but I will get something toward the higher end as I tend to like having the best stuff! Got a bit more saving to do though!
I'll keep lurking around stealing valuable information and maybe one day give some back! Cheers
