gold detecting areas crown land close to melbourne

Is there any areas locations really close to Melbourne crown land public land like where i can detect in a day. Like duck there for the day and come home drive home on the same day.
Say within 1 hours drive from the inner city of Melbourne as this is where i live.
Which areas.
Always liked to know if there were any spots or locations that i can duck to in a day and still get a fair bit of detecting time in and spend more hours detecting then driving.
I am from inner city Melbourne.

GOOD LUCK:

I traveled out as far as Licola before I found any worthwhile dishable gold a loooooong time ago. Did not have much success in the creeks close to Melbourne.

There is till plenty of gold in the creeks of the Bonang area....If you can find an area that is not off limits these days.....Good luck with that

Anywhere near like the Woodend Romsey and like heskett areas.
