Yeah didn't get out until 2pm so the mountain bike got me there quicker. You know those digging you pass out mountain bike riding and you think if only, well chuck the detector in a backpack and good to go.
Thanks Ant, It was a quick arvo session and it was good picking a couple of nuggets. I was lucky the rain didn't get heavy, there was no where to hide from it.
another totally enjoyable video Pete, got to hate those hot rocks and especially the mineralised ground noise it wastes so much of my time when i hit that stuff, love the gold you found great work.
Thanks Neil, glad you enjoyed it. The hot rocks and ground are a pain but you just have to work through it as some of those sounds improve and turn out to be gold.
I find it quite frustrating watching our regional friends having fun whilst we hide from the police helicopter here in Melbourne. At least I am pigging out on my homemade sausage rolls today!
Really cool video thanks Pete from northern Cali. Mountain bike work well I have a single wheel trailer on mine I carry Gear in and racks and pack saddles on the bike
That pick has history Ron, it dug up a 2oz nugget in about 1983, had to pack light and that's the best little pick i have, all in good fun. Cheers, Pete
Thanks Craig, the filming is a bit of work when your by yourself and when you head out for a quick arvo session you loose a bit of time, but with a little effort i hope to make the videos a bit more interesting. It's always good when you start digging into the yellow clays, you know you have a fair chance.
@@danpatterson9650 I've found if you block out the background the camera focuses really good on the gold and they were some nice bright nuggets, that helps. Cheers
There good boots, they are a composite boot with no metal, so the detector won't pick them up. I've prospected for years with a watch and ring on, I don't find they get in the way much, a lot of people don't like having metal on them while prospecting.
@@PetesGoldAdventures I have been using the 9” coiltek elite with some awesome results for the last 12 months and think it is a really good coil over the Sadie but that’s just my opinion lol 😂 it seems to pull better nuggets than the Sadie for some reason
@@Goldandtravel I've never used one of those coils, once I got the 45 I went to the nugget finders, I used the old coiltek coils when I had a 3000 and just stayed with the NF coils with the 45.
I've had a couple of enquiries for that shirt, I did look into setting up one of those print on demand merch suppliers but that didn't work out, I'll look into another and post it on the channel how i go. I'd like another myself with that and the channel logo also, I'll get onto it. Cheers, Pete
Nice one Pete bike riding and detecting and lots of hot rocks and some precious what a day.
It was good fun, I'll have to do it again soon and hopefully get a couple more nuggets.
.8 👌 - definitely worth a few more visits - nice work 😎👍🙏
For sure, load up the mountain bike and head in, be buggered if i'm walking there.
Cheers, Pete
Beaut little bits there. Makes riding the bike worth the effort
Thanks mate, beats walking km's and get's you on the gold quicker, it was good fun and something different.
Cheers, Pete
Beautiful colour, looks really pure
They are very bright, Central Vic gold has a high purity, thanks for watching.
Cheers, Pete
The perfect day mate. Mountain bike plus gold. Awesome work Pete i might have to try that out next time to. 👍
Yeah didn't get out until 2pm so the mountain bike got me there quicker. You know those digging you pass out mountain bike riding and you think if only, well chuck the detector in a backpack and good to go.

Cheers, Pete
Nice one Pete, good to see ya out there again - 2 nugs is better than none :) Shame about that rain!!
Thanks Ant, It was a quick arvo session and it was good picking a couple of nuggets. I was lucky the rain didn't get heavy, there was no where to hide from it.

Thanks mate, It was a fun arvo out and a bit of late gold was a bonus.
Cheers, Pete

Thanks for taking the time to make the video Pete, just what we need in lockdown to keep us going.
No worries Mark, It's something I really enjoy doing and I'm happy people are liking my video's.
Cheers, Pete

@@dataglasses Your almost there and then you can get back out on the creek and try out some of that new equipment.
@@PetesGoldAdventures Should be good!
Top work!! Love your vids mate. 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Glen, Glad you enjoy them.
Cheers, Pete
Really cool video thanks Pete from northern Cali. Mountain bike work well I have a single wheel trailer on mine I carry Gear in and racks and pack saddles on the bike
Thanks mate, sounds like you have a great set up it certainly would make it easier transporting your gear.
Cheers, Pete
Nice Pete! I love the litte pick glad you didn't have to dig a massive hole with it😂..
Thanks mate, It's not much chop, but it has history and did dig up a 2oz nugget back in the 80's.
Cheers, Pete
@@PetesGoldAdventures wow that's the type of nuggets we want!
@@SavageProspecting Yep, one for each hand.
Good bike you have nice Gold as well But that pick is way way To BIG for you LOL awesome Pete Cheers Ron
That pick has history Ron, it dug up a 2oz nugget in about 1983, had to pack light and that's the best little pick i have, all in good fun.
Cheers, Pete
And my 2oz ?? i am still looking for shit you got it LOL Cheers ron
@@hookysprospecting3874 Don't stress Ron, I heard theres more than 1 out there, it's got your name on it.
well i will have to go out and find it lol but no stress here cheers ron
nice one mate
Thanks mate, It was a nice afternoon session and a nice bonus picking up a couple of nuggets. Cheers
Well done mate the saidy is a mint coil for its size can't wait for the next video keep them coming 👌👍
Thanks Marky, yeah there really good and give a booming signal on the small gold.
Cheers, Pete
A bit keen on the bike brought a bike in covid and road it once lol good work
The bike riding can be a bit of hit and miss, you normally go through periods of riding and then it sits around for months.
Cheers, Pete
Great work, must of taking a bit of work to get those shots, that's the colour ground where the big ones hide thought that area.
Thanks Craig, the filming is a bit of work when your by yourself and when you head out for a quick arvo session you loose a bit of time, but with a little effort i hope to make the videos a bit more interesting. It's always good when you start digging into the yellow clays, you know you have a fair chance.
@@PetesGoldAdventures Being able to see the pieces of gold close up is a real dopamine rush. Keeps me wanting more!
@@danpatterson9650 I've found if you block out the background the camera focuses really good on the gold and they were some nice bright nuggets, that helps. Cheers
Nice bits mate :)
Thanks Grant, it was a quick arvo session and got some good results. Cheers
Nice work Pete, almost a gram there mate, go the Sadie 🇦🇺⛏️🤠
It's a gun coil and the response it gives is great on the small stuff and fits in a backpack for mountain bike prospecting.
Cheers, Pete
@@PetesGoldAdventures hitting a spot on Sunday, your welcome to come if you want
@@ChasingGoldAustralia Thanks for the offer but I'm heading out tomorrow, we'll have a catch up again soon though.
@@PetesGoldAdventures absolutely mate, will give me a chance to see if this place is good for the GPX
The GPX will go good, you'll cover more ground and punch deeper.
Pushy Gold good on you u mate 👍
Beats walking km's and gets you to the gold fast, well gives you more time swinging rather than bush walking. Cheers
@@PetesGoldAdventures Pete’s Pushy Gold adventures hey like it 👍
@@mrmum8445 Extreme mountain bike prospecting, maybe
@@PetesGoldAdventures that’s Gold👍
Hi Pete those boots look pretty solid... you got steel caps ??
PS I was watching a US guy with a wedding ring and a watch a few days ago!!!

@@PetesGoldAdventures you should get one to try for a weekend bud. The elite coils are really good bud
Yeah I should do, I'm sure the stores would loan them out if they thought they could make a sale.
Hi Pete I have a GPX 4500 and am wanting to know what would be a good setting for it. I’m currently in wedderburn.
Need your help
Hi Cheyne, if you watch episode 4 tech tips I run through my settings that I always use, check that out and let me know how you go. Cheers Pete
Are you turning down the sensitivity on this ground?
No, I don't want to loose any sensitivity, so I just work around it and balance out the hot rocks or ground.
@@PetesGoldAdventures So many opinions with the Gm, cheers!
hey Pete, where do we get a T-Shirt with me old mate leadshot or other words, or where can I go to get the printing done
I've had a couple of enquiries for that shirt, I did look into setting up one of those print on demand merch suppliers but that didn't work out, I'll look into another and post it on the channel how i go. I'd like another myself with that and the channel logo also, I'll get onto it.
Cheers, Pete
Hi Rhonda, I now have a merch store with the "Old Mate Lead Shot" tee shirts, you can find the link on my lastest video.
Cheers, Pete
Hey Pete Josh sent you my my email
Hey mate, He did I'll send you an email. Cheers
