Hello,
I'm a newbie Tasmanian prospector who after many a number of hours searching (using GM1000) has found a decent amount of hot rocks, spent bullets and assorted junk . I am still hooked but would not mind some of that shiny stuff. Due to the bush density (especially around Queenstown) I have focused on creeks. Currently I have been detecting everything in the creek: creek-bed and creek-bank mainly, but I am wondering if this is the wrong approach? Should I walk until bedrock and then detect? Should I focus on areas where the creek flattens out after a steeper section? I am honestly quite unsure.
Any advice would be appreciated.
(I understand that this has likely already been answered, I was just unable to find it on the forum)
