That bloke sure looked familiar, hey! I've got some fun adventures that I need to put up when I can, we did get a few of our more traditional hunts in on that trip. Good to hear from you Wayne, cheers mate!

@@DirtFishMish Good to hear from you too! And Yay! Can't wait. I'll be there! Cheers!

This one has a magnet there too, I just forgot to use it! 🤣

Ahaha... I see what you did there. Thought I'd 'tack' on a reply to acknowledge it. Cheers Lindsay :)

haha, yes indeed it was. Thank you :)

Just wait 'til you see the next outing it had - it'll be up within the week, I filmed it the very next day. Am now feeling fairly confident that I can hear the small stuff. Cheers mate!

Thanks Carol! Ironically, this pick actually does have a strong magnet built into the base of the handle, but I was still too new to using it to remember that it had this feature. 😂 I've had some success since this video, I'll be putting up another vid within the next week. Cheers :)

Thanks Cap'n, I'm definitely on the board now and also planning more trips to come. Just wish I had a little more time to film and edit again. Good things come to those who wait and all that. Cheers :)

Thank you! The shirt is intentionally loud, it's designed to start conversations on mental health and 50% of the profits fund a mental health helpline for tradies: trademutt.com/pages/trademutt-social-impact I think I'll be adding a few more to the collection when I can. Cheers :)

The next hunt was better... I'll have that one up on KZfaq within the week. Catch you then. :)

Glad you liked that moment, lol! You'll probably laugh at the next relic video I put up (it'll be after the next gold vid) - I'm telling off the camera in that one. LOL cheers!

I know right, they'll use anything these days! lol

cheers Mish@@DirtFishMish

You've got it Ron. The specialised gold machines do a spectacular job of finding items that a pinpointer struggles to locate. I'm not sure if you've seen my Facebook page (also called DirtFishMish), there's a photo of a gold storage box a few posts down, the tiny bits you see in that were found with this machine. I'll be putting my next video out shortly and you'll see some good examples there too. Cheers!

That day was insane, hey! Perhaps it was to test my resilience for planning you-know-what. Looking forward to working on editing some shenanigans now. Catch you when I do :)

Cheers mate! Found a few little pickers since, nothing I can retire on, but I won't stop trying. Just have to get back out there. :)

Absolutely chugged it that day, it was a scorcher with very little adequate shade options! Thank goodness the seasons are shifting now, I'm looking forward to more comfortable conditions. Cheers Peter :)

My parks are so junky that I'd be afraid of how well the 6000 would work, lol! But I do certainly have some plans to take it to some unconventional places and try it out. Thanks for sharing your findings with the SDC :)

Thanks, Tana - and yes I'm very pleased to wear a shirt that supports such a worthy cause. There'll be another video up within the next week. See you then :)

I think your prediction is sound. Hmmm, maybe I should put that vid up shortly. ;) Cheers bud!

@@DirtFishMish Why not, the whole world is waiting in anticipation, will she or won't she 🤔

@@PetesGoldAdventures check my channel homepage now, link to live chat 😊 vid goes live in 10!

Thank you! No gold this time, but I would definitely be watching the next video that comes out, it'll be up within the week. 😉 Cheers!!

@@DirtFishMish look forward to seeing it. Stay safe

Thanks mate, by the time I realised we'd had hardly any interaction on camera, we were already melting under the summer sun! lol. Plenty of detecting coming up with him though, I've got a few video's worth sitting here. That pick is working an absolute treat by the way... it's so comfortable to use. Thank you :)

Thanks so much, the company behind the shirt (TradeMutt) is doing great work for mental health initiatives. I will be wearing it more often for sure. My 6000 is bittersweet, a dear family member left me some funds when they passed and they were a fan of my hobby and channel, I would not otherwise have been in the position to start out with one. I do hope that they would be pleased with my decision. The 5000 and SDC are both great machines in their own right so you're still in good hands. Cheers mate :)

Gosh, I should start a plantation then. LOL cheers John.

Hey mate, thank you! Got my fingers crossed for you - I’ve seen the Kruzer in action, good machine, hoping it finds you some yellow on this run. 🤞🤞

I'm very glad to hear that, and I still think the 600 is a mighty machine, it's the one I'll credit with falling head-over-heels into the hobby after I upgraded from my Go-Find 22!

Thanks Craig, it was hitting 34 degrees when we called it a day, went straight from this hunt to a cafe for an ice cold juice (not coffee, lol!). Been finding plenty of lead since this video too, but have also managed to mix a little yellow in there. Cheers :)

Hi Chris, thank you! Not too worried about them - grew up in a rural area full of snakes, I’d prefer not to deal with spiders but I’m not arachnophobic. It’s important to keep your eyes open in the bush though and avoid the critters where possible. Cheers 😊

@DirtFishMish If you're ever in the UK, you'd be very welcome to come hunt with us.

G’day Jim! Thanks for the question. Pretty much any rural area of Australia could be considered snake country. 😂 I do own a pair of snake gaiters, however I intensely dislike wearing them. I grew up in a region much like this one and saw snakes all the time, most variants of snakes prefer not to engage with us and will leave us alone if given a wide berth or if they feel our stomping through the ground in advance of our arrival. It is however important to always be vigilant, and not intentionally put oneself in harm’s way. Cheers!

The problem about a larger hat is it makes it very difficult to wear headphones (which I prefer/need!) -- though I do see that there's now a few wide-brim varieties that allow for headphone holes. Some more research to do, I think. Cheers John :)

The heat beat us pretty quickly on the day, can't win 'em all. The next hunt for gold fared a little better. Cheers :)

looking forward to seeing it.@@DirtFishMish

Pretty good A, definitely heavier than what I'd usually swing, but a lot of the weight is at the battery compartment at the back of the arm, so it balances the load nicely. I've actually found that I can comfortably swing it for up to 4hrs or so without needing a bungee. Cheers mate :)

Just planning my next trip away and it could potentially be several degrees hotter than that, I think I might be losing my marbles Marc!! Cheers mate. :)
