Discrimination
How many of you use discrimination on your GPX when in a trashy area? Most will tell you that you will lose gold
but I would rather use it in a trashy area and find some instead of giving up and getting none. Your thoughts

yeah, what pete said. how do you know that a piece of gold isn't next to or under that piece of junk. i've seen some good gold come out of trashy areas because people walk away from these areas.

Re: Discrimination
Have you ever given up on an area because of too much trash?
What nugget to trash ratio keeps you digging?
1 to 5, 1 to 10, 1 to 20, 1 to 30 or does it depend when a nugget was found, if one was found quickly, say in the first five attempts one might dig longer before giving up. Curious as to how persistent we are.

Re: Discrimination
the big question is.... Are you in a gold bearing area? if so, then probably worth to dig every target.
I'm sure you've heard it many times of multi oz'ers coming from an area that were left in the ground because people thought they were junk.

As soon as i hit One nugget i never give up regardless of the ratio
of junk to gold.
Leave the junk and you leave gold..

back in the day of the whites 6db etc, all my nuggets were found with the discriminate on, i mucked around with it burying stuff, nails flat iron etc , and after i found my first nugget, i had something to test against, i must have fluked the settings, so much so, that any nugget that i found was discriminated, and dug,
