Although my wife and I have been to Western Australia you have covered the internal side of view where we travelled the bitumen roads. Including the wonderful shots of Australia via the drone. When driving the Nº 1 highway and seeing the outskirts we miss the best part of Australia. Thank you so much Krissy and Mark.
In 1987, I built an ULF detector using the rim of a 5 gallon plastic pail as the coil form. It operated at a frequecy of 5 kilohertz. It could easily detect an object the size of your hand at a 4 foot depth. I stll have it and it still works. I used to have fun, following people with a conventional detector and dig-up targets that they had just missed. It used to drive people nuts.
Eastern brown snakes eh! Really good idea not to get too close to those little buggers. How come the bees aren't stinging you? Not that I want them to, 🤣 it's just I've never heard of bees that don't sting. The Pilbara is a very strange place. It even looks like it belongs on Mars or somewhere similar when the drone got a shot of the mountain/hills that look like they have been stripped bare of trees and plants AND grass after the fires. It doesn't seem to matter what the conditions are like to you. If there is gold YOU will find it. Thankyou again Krissy and Mark for another entertaining adventure. Cya! 🇭🇲🤗
The snakes were a real worry out there! Never seen that many in one spot, they must have hatched nearby. The bees were native bees, they don't sting but are even more annoying than flies because they crawl into sleeves and up the shorts. If the country is rough, it usually hasn't seen many detectors yet 👍🏻
@@OutbackGoldFever Thanks for that info Krissy. I'm still a bit stumped with the "Native" bees. Kinda sounds like they wear masks and throw spears. 🥴 Somewhere down deep in the uncharted scary recesses of my mind lies a thought that maybe, just maybe Krissy is trying to tell me that the stingy bees are from somewhere other than Australia and that is why she calls the non stingy bees natives. Is that correct or am I having a misfire in my brain again? All the way into the shorts eh? 😳!
Ms. Krissy try taking a couple brush piles of dried wood not alot but enough to kindle a small fire in a circle around where u want to prospect then put some green grass or green tree limbs to create smoke bees hate smoke

Hey Chrissy love watching your videos. Just wondering if your prospecting on land that requires permission and if so, who do you go through / contact and besides a miners rights what else do you need to prospect in the Pilbara? Thanks for your continuing entertainment in getting the gold , you’ve just made me want to get out there NOW !!! 🙏🏼
Hi Kim, it really depends on the situation, sometimes I seek permission, sometimes I detect vacant crown land or pending tenements, other times I get a 40E. No matter what you should always notify the pastoralist before entering 👍🏻
@@OutbackGoldFever Ex-spurts will argue all day which is worse but one constant they can be sure of is the speed at which I will be running away. Maximum. I'm a new subscriber. I haven't detected in decades, and that was in Wedderburn, but I'm currently waiting for my Gold Monster 1000 and my shiny new pick to arrive in the mail. I love your vids. They are especially helpful as I now live in the Pilbara and you are covering home ground by the look of the terrain. Good luck out there and stay away from the creepy crawlies.
We absolutely love the pilbara area and can't wait to get back up there. I hope you ordered some gaitors as well, the spinafex is thick in some places. Great that your geting back out for a swing and intersted in how the monster will go. Best of luck and hope your GM arrives soon 👍🍀⛏ Stay safe 🐍
I clean out an empty household spray bottle and fill with water then put in 15 drops of peppermint oil then shake. Makes a good bug repellant, smells good too. Had to wear repellant every day for a years tour with the US Army in Vietnam and I cannot stand any chemical repellant. Found it works with Mosquitos, Bees, Hornets, flies and wasps. Got em all on my property. Hope this helps.
Looks like your search head needs a coil cover before it is damaged or is that a dark material cover on it?? Good luck hunting! You must have been a good source of moisture for the bees. Nice gold !
Sacraficial wet towel on a branch near bye, bees will go to it, for the moisture, they are collecting the droplets to cool their hive down to a balanced 37° , same as the termites at night the ones that fly around, when the temprature is exactly 37° they leave the termite nests , basicaly speaking they are the future kings and queens of new nests, only a very small % make it to that point, davi b
Does that Creek ever run? I can only imagine the amount of smaller gold in that area if you were to bring a sluice or highbanker. Those nuggets were nuts! And sitting right on top??!!!
Try a spoon of sugar or honey in a cup of water then tip it in 3or 4 shallow sardine tins & hang them in the trees with a piece of string. This can sometimes keep those pesky "buzzers" away. Oh yeh pretty nice gold too.
Just a foot note, driving through the spinaffex can collect over time under the car, might be ok for month's, but then one day its so clogged and so hot, it catches fire, and now your car is in jepordy, love ya vids, where you at now? Davi b
Hmm what if you put a water dish out for the bees (with rocks in it so they don't drown :D ) and maybe they'll pick the.water dish over you? Haha love the vid thanks!
@@OutbackGoldFever probably the salt......my neighbors are big time bee people.... they feed there bees.....try a bucket of water with sugar or corn syrup or something sweet in it and a board going in the bucket with hay or dried grass on top of the water........water alone should work with a stick or limb or 1 by 4 board
Just a question what do you do with your dog while out there swinging as we have a dog as well and normally have a sitter for her. Thankyou by the way loving your channel 🥰
1. you can collect the dead snakes freeze/dry freeze the. Might be a new species not that long ago a new big venomous snake was found in Australia's outback. 2. why dont you dig/metal detecting at night to dangerous? will the snakes/bugs swarm you at night?

Take an Australian 50c coin and you will see that its exactly 1/2 a troy ounce. That's handy to know if you want to make a little set of bushcraft scales.
@@OutbackGoldFever When I was in the bush, I had a full body mosquito netting type suit, over my clothes, from Cabellas...Kept woodticks out, and skeeters at bay...Did not even know it was on...Maybe that will help? On another note I contacted Tourism...seems like no problem, except this virus thing...We may never travel again, if the "tardelites" have their way...Cheers, and Thanks for info...
White's GMT Goldmaster E series. Works real good for me in very hot rocks area. Lower Death Valley area, California. Computer memory stores signals of junk including hot rocks and only sounds of on gold or new junk to be programmed. Very hot area dessert. Be prepared with water and fuel.
Sounds like a great machine, would be handy in areas like this. Carry water in multiple containers so you don't lose all your supply if you have a failure 👍
I think when you find a place like this you probably wish you had a backhoe to dig deeper. That seems to be the beginning of financial burden for most prospectors because they have a machine to pay for? Krissy would it help to drop a wet cloth ten feet away to attract them away from you?
Hi from Linda, What do U do when U see a snake? I thought the noise from the detector would make them move to another area? I'm terrified of snakes but would still like to try detecting in the outback. Is there anything that will keep them away?
Most snakes will stay where they are if they feel they are in a safe spot as you approach. Being scared of them is good in a way as you'll be more aware of your environment. Move slowly away from them if you see them and you should not have any issues with them whilst detecting. Watch our bush safety vid for the precautions we take Linda. 👍 Happy hunting
There is an electronic device available to deter/ repell snakes. We have not done any research to know if it actually works. Check out some youtube videos on snake repeller. We don't see that many snakes to know if it was working or not. Most look like they are made for your home but you could probably carry one with you.
Hmm, if that is WA they are probably dugites- yep, they are brown snakes. There's also one brown snake that the aboriginals in WA call something like 'walk around snake' because it's literally so dangerous that they walk around it rather than approach it. The browns in WA are apparently the most dangerous brown snakes in all Aussie so be extra careful.

I live near Sydney and I can't believe how big WA is. I love the drone shots and wish you did more of them and they lasted longer. Danke!!!
Those drone shots sure give you an idea of how vast this country is, and the gold can be anywhere. We'll try and include a few longer shots. 👍
Freaking insane how much gold you find. Here in CA, we have big gold too but finds like yours seem exceedingly rare.

The common brown snake in the Pilbara is the King Brown. It will kill you a couple of seconds slower than the Eastern Brown. So you were in luck.

Hi Sue, unfortunately Phantom found a poison bait behind our camp and didn't survive. Getting a sitter for your dog is a good idea...
@@OutbackGoldFever I’m so sorry to hear my apologies 😔
The bee field is probably loaded because they do that to everyone snd they just leave. Need a face net and really search there.
Maybe one day in a full body suit 😂
If you took a towel and soaked it in water would the bees leave you alone and swarm the wet towel? Enjoy watching your videos!
we've tried that at camp and it hasn't worked...
The snakes could be Pseudechis australis/ Mulga snake. Similar looking to an Eastern brown, and also extremely venomous.
Maybe, wasn't going to get close enough to count scales 🐍
My word even bees want in the gold action
It was like we were stealing their golden honey 🐝

What about couple of fly-traps with water + a bit of meat maybe. There aren't that many bees/flies, they just are all on you.
I wonder if you shared a little water with the bees, fill a small hollow in a rock or something, they might have left you alone.
We didn't, water is scarce out there and evaporates in no time in the heat. Good idea but not practical in desert country.

How often do you have to replace the skid plates on the coils ? Have you used the 19 inch coil on the 7000?
Skid plates last about 3-4 months for us. We use the 19 rarely because of its weight 🐘

You guys be careful .😁🇬🇧❤️
How much is a gram
Put out a pan ofwater for the bee's

hi guys I'm Hassan from Africa which detector do you recommend for someone who is in dry zone same like yours for hunting gold nuggets ?
Anything from minelab would be worth a look! 👍🏻
all right then thanks
Please invite me to visit Australia, but we have winter and the season is over)))
Thanks for watching 👍🏻 hopefully the plains are flying again soon...

Ready to fly to australia after 15 years prospecting with metal detector in switerland do you have any tips or a good adresse thank you
If you come to Western Australia make sure it in our winter time ⛏
Why don't you get a bunch of dryed leaves together and smoke them out with the greener leaves.
For that to bee effective you have to stand right in the smoke 🐝 🤘🏻
People pay up to $1,000 and more for those types of bee nests the honey is really good
