grubstake Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 My uncle and i tried this out at rye Patch, my uncle has tendonitus from being a Roofer for 47 years. he really liked it and so did I. It take every bit of weight off your shoulder and arms, and transfers it to your hip. Makes you detector feather lite. I sure wish I had though of it. a true american invention.

kamikaze Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Grubstake Gary, sorry to hear that the weather did not cooperate with your plans. Never the less, it sounds like there was great company and good times. You'll look back someday and say "remember our trip to Rye Patch in '06? The trip that it stormed...." Now go hunt your patch because there's a nice nugget waiting for ya' that will make it all better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grubstake Posted June 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Yeh I know it will Gaine, you better get all your stuff packed for Moore Creek, and take a extra duffle bag, to put all the gold your going to get up there. Take plenty of Deet with you, the moe- skeetoes are as big as hummming birds. Ha! Ha! Grubstake MOE SKEETOES than anywhere else up there!

shep Posted June 1, 2006 Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 I don't know if it was all that bad up there. The rain and snow wasn't real pleasant, but never heard my pager go off once Below a pic of my skunk supressant, only 1.1 dwt; but I'll take it. Also a couple of locals watching me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin nuggethunting Posted June 1, 2006 Admin Report Share Posted June 1, 2006 Hello Shep, You know regardless of how much the area has been hunted up there, I feel at peace when I'm there. Several years ago John B. and I made a 6-7 day trip up that way and I really enjoyed it. It's kind of a bonus when you find a nugget along with enjoying the trip. Congrats on the nugget. Wish the weather permitted more hunting for you guys. Talk with you later,Rob Allison Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
