jf,

Not sure about the gold prospecting but I know were you can do some diamond prospecting not too far from you over in Murfreesboro, AK. It's a state park and for 5.00 you can hunt all day. As a matter of fact, I am heading there myself after I get back from my Middle East deployment in a week or so. I live in South Texas myself and all the Gold (jewelry) I have found in South Texas has been on Padre Island. It should be real good here in a couple of days after Emily kicks up the surf.

Hey jf.... Welcome to T-net...

The only places I know of in TX where gold occurs naturally (and has been found) is down around Llano. Your biggest problem with doing any gold recovery in this state is that 98% of Texas is privately owned. I'm going to Oklahoma tomorrow to look for some places to prospect, but I doubt we'll much luck there either. I want to go to Alaska, Colorado or Kalifornia to pan...

jf, I'm from E.Tex myself. Three miles north of Diana, north of Longview. As a boy we found arrowheads just about everywhere if you like relics. We even went to Murfreeboro once for a weekend.
If I still lived there now I think I would try Cache hunting. My dad used to tell us stories about people in the area that buried their money and the relatives digging holes looking for it. My hunting buddy and I found old homesite buried under Blackberry bushes in the woods.

It was either the Gold Fever show or Prospecting America that did a show about the Gold in the Llano River. it was a very good show and there is a person that lets you on his land for a fee to hunt for it.

I think there is a small GPAA club there, Iam not sure. Call GPAA they have a tol free number.

I know of a site in Kingsland where you can pan that river for a fee.. Believe it's 15.00 for the day. He does allow for camping I am pretty sure for more.
