oldies1955 Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 Hey all: Well, it was a great day out both weather wise and gold wise Dad and I went out to Pizza wash and I detected the upper end where the tribs run into it. I was able to snag two of the small ones out of them.These washes are murder to detect. HOT rocks, black sand pockets and hot bedrock.After 5 hrs of listening to my detector squabbling I was brain dead! Moved a lot of hot rocks today.I worked back down into the main wash where I found Pizza nugget and found another small one in some gravel about 3 inches down. It was blown around by the monsoons and didn't have a chance to get down to bedrock about 8 inches below it. Found the bigger one in the gut of the wash in a fast moving area.Have a video of one popping out but I cant seem to get Uboob to upload?Guess if there is any moral of the story....check everywhere! Fast areas, slow, up on the bank,....everywhere. The monsoons have no rhyme or reason, just kind of puts the gold where it wants to Now I have to hit the other 3/4 mile of that wash Great day out and the good Lord blessed us with some more gold..3.6 grammys Tom H.

Admin nuggethunting Posted November 3, 2014 Admin Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Hey Tom, Congrats on the nuggets. Always fun to find more in the spots you have before. Glenn - Post the nuggets if you would. I was up in your area this weekend, but it was a last minute trip and wasn't able to make contact with you. Scott and I explored and I picked up 7 small ones. I have 28 nuggets in the last 3 trips, most being from the Bradshaw region. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I am up to 18 myself for three trips out, I hit our river claims Sunday, the rains didn't do anything much, tuff hunting in the back, someone has been in there rolling a lot of rocks on the benches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
