    Fern, my white Boxer dog, is an accredited service dog under the 1992 DD act. She holds special access rights to be allowed to enter places most dogs cannot. This includes National Parks such as Chiltern Mt Piolet NP where Reedy Creek is located. Unless your dog is an accredited service animal they are not allowed to enter NP.
    Check your local regulations, as each state and territory is different, before you travel into or though NP with your dog. Here is the Parks Victoria website for those of you wishing to read up on Victoria's laws 👉 www.parks.vic.gov.au/things-t...

    The Nox 800 is a wonderful machine. I've pulled 2 1890's coin spills from areas I and many others have hunted untold times. Especially areas with old irrigation systems still in place which wreak havoc on the not so patient detectorist. Also US Mil buttons from 1840's and I'm in California! Not the east coast , Southern US battlefields.

  • @swiftrick15
    @swiftrick15 Před 6 lety +3

    You should also mention an important thing. Permission.
    It is very important to make sure you have permission to detect. Check with your local council if unsure.
    And dig responsibly.I know you do, but it needs to be emphasized to others. I am very selective in what targets I dig to avoid digging 50 holes. On a beach or farm setting may be different, but sporting parks, and venues do not take kindly to a lot of people digging up their grounds.
    One person does 50 holes, multiply that by a dozen people a month and that is a lot of damage.
    I have had a few conversations with sporting ground owners who have had bad history from people leaving damaged grounds.
    So to avoid problems, get permission, and leave the place looking exactly the same as when you first got there.
    Even a plug can look good, and go back discretely, but go back a week later, and you can notice the damage, especially with certain grasses, and how you open up the earth.
    Also, in QLD for example, you should have a fossicking license. They are cheap, and help to keep things legit.
    Well done on the silvers. Maybe you might hit the ultimate jackpot and pull out a sovereign in the near future.

    Nice to the point clip. Question what type of pointer are you using. What average depth will it hit? And love the dig tool. Where are they made?

    • @VoGusProspecting
      @VoGusProspecting  Před 6 lety +1

      Rod Miller thanks mate. I try to make them all concise.
      The pinpointer is makro one. It hits about 4-5" max. Fully water proof to 3 meters. But I just upgraded to a Garret Carrot.
      Way better device.
      The shovel is a custom made one from a follower Wayne.
