[QUOTE="nuggetino, post: 253836, member: 1884"] Sorry to hear you didn't have much luck up there. I found a couple 1 grammers when I was up there for about 5 days. Was at McMasters GPA near an area which had been pushed. You wouldn't have found these nuggets with the SDC though because the coil is simply too big. I had my 10X5" DD coil and used it's narrow profile to search between tight scrub. I met a local at the end of the day and he reckoned he uses an even smaller 5" round mono and agreed the best place to pull gold now is running small coils in the prickly stuff. Definitely need to pull the tricks out of the hat nowadays to get onto the yellow up there. Reason I left was the mosquito's! Never been eaten alive in the way I was at the Clermont. They lifted from the ground in a thick grey fog each morning and even with copious application of bushman repellent it didn't do squat to ward them off. [/QUOTE]
