Fisher Gold Bug Pro – High-Sensitivity Gold Prospecting Metal Detector

The Fisher Gold Bug Pro is one of the most trusted gold prospecting detectors ever created, designed to locate tiny gold nuggets in highly mineralized ground with exceptional precision. Operating at a powerful 19 kHz VLF frequency, it delivers unmatched sensitivity to fine gold while staying lightweight, stable, and incredibly easy to use.

Key Features of the Gold Bug Pro

• High-Frequency 19 kHz Operation: The Gold Bug Pro runs on a 19 kHz VLF frequency ideal for small gold. This frequency enhances sensitivity to flakes, pickers, and small nuggets that many standard detectors struggle to detect—especially in mineralized soil.
• Deep-Seeking All Metal Mode: All Metal mode offers maximum depth and sensitivity, allowing you to hear everything in the ground. This mode is perfect for gold fields, dry washes, creek beds, and any area where small gold can hide.
• V-Break Tone Discrimination System: Fisher’s adjustable V-Break tone discrimination gives superior control over how targets sound. Easily set the breakpoint between high tones (good targets) and low tones (iron and trash), making target identification cleaner and faster.
• Digital Target ID & Numeric Readouts: The Gold Bug Pro features a fast, responsive digital display that shows precise target ID numbers, ground phase, and mineralization levels—giving you accurate information before you dig.
• Real-Time Ground Balancing: Automatic and manual ground balance allows you to handle iron-rich, hot mineralized soil with ease. The detector constantly reads ground conditions so you can maintain peak sensitivity.
• Ultra-Lightweight and Comfortable Design: At just around 2.5 lbs (1.1 kg), the Gold Bug Pro is built for long days of detecting. The balanced shaft, padded armrest, and simple control layout ensure all-day comfort and excellent maneuverability in rough terrain.
• Waterproof Search Coil: The search coil (size varies per bundle) is fully waterproof for shallow water detecting, wet dirt, and stream edges. Note: the control box is not waterproof.
• Pinpoint Mode with Depth Indicator: Static pinpoint mode makes target recovery easy by giving precise location and depth information — perfect for tight spaces, bedrock cracks, and gold-rich soil.
