Gold Prospecting Picks

I need a good prospecting metal detector, any advice?
Well once again im hopin the yahoo comunity pulls through as usual for a tough predicament im in.
I recently got into gold prospecting, panning and such. I have found several rivers and dry beds near me with gold in them.
Needles to say as all things do this hobby has grew into more. I wan to step it up a notch and get a detector thats able to be partially submerged to “sniff out” small amount of gold nuggets. Upon weeks of research i am still unable to get a clear answer to my problem.
I could care less about coins and such im only interested in gold “nuggets” and not jewelry as far as prospecting goes. Does anyone know of a metal detector that can meet my needs??? It has to be able to be partially submerged as i scan pockets for nuggets, not to mention be able to pick out at least a gram.
Any helpfull info out there in yahoo land????
Of course you know there are a whole bunch of name brands out there for metal detectors. They do pretty well on their own, and they all find metal. The best machine you need comes from a manufacture called Minelab. www.minelab.com They are an Australian company that produces machines specifically for prospecting. Go to their website and choose the best machine that suits your needs. They have dealers in North America. Hope this helps?
