The town of Geraldton rangers have taken their "power" to new extrems in this town.
Although I have a miners right and have tired to explain the rules and rights that it gives me, I have been kicked off beaches and parks by the local rangers who have threatened me with trespass and or vandalisim charges.
No I do not leave holes and I do not dig up grassed areas, all I was looking for were coins and relics.
Now the only time I use my detector is when I go bush or looking around ruins out of town, after I ask permission of coarse.
So all I can say is do not try detecting within the main area of Geraldton or Big Brother will try to put his boot into you.
