* Hunch paid off! *

meggie · Nov 28, 2019

I hunted a new little washout yesterday and after finding a few sinkers there I thought there might still be a few heavy items left so I went back today for another look.
The first decent target turned out to be a plastic tackle box full of old sinkers (about 20)
The next was a faint low target, it was deep but after a few scoops I spread the sand and it was now a solid 10 and I could see it ... boom, 9ct gold bracelet, 10 grams.
Stayed another hour, scored a couple of coins & more sinkers.
So today my hunch paid off for me!

How do you drop a box full of sinkers and not pick it up? What a nice score on that bracelet!

Sweet find Meggie. I wish my hunches panned out so well.

That tackle box came with the rod. They didn't drop it. They left it.

Awesome heavy stuff! Congrats on a sweet bracelet!

I suggest you go back and try to find the rest of that bracelet. What I see is an awfully small bracelet, or your hand is exceptionally huge. The more practical conclusion is that some of the bracelet is missing, and may be still buried in the area?

Australia has so much gold they are just throwing it in the ocean. You seem to get more gold than silver! Congrats again!!!

Awesome bracelet, always gets the heart pumping to see gold links in the sand!

I think a new sub forum needs to be created "Meggie's daily gold"

Nice hunt!

Nice find there! They say that where there is lead, gold is nearby. Very true in this case. Congrats on the yellow!
