Gold Bug 2 and gold mining.

[lookin4treasure]

Hey guys, This will be my first year actually "mining" or looking for gold. I was able to find a few claims that were active miines back in the 1800's. I have old maps with the places where the shafts and quartz veins are located. I'm picking up the Fisher Gold bug 2 next month and I just want any advice from anyone who's done this type of thing. Should I be able to find gold or am I just wasting my time and money? I don't expect to get rich, but I'd like to find a bit of gold. Please give me some tips as i'm new to this.
Thanks guys, wish me luck
