It got hot today, so I headed to a beach. Great day, even though it rained for about 3 hours during the hunt. You can't get any wetter from the rain when you are water hunting. Here's the good, the bad and the ugly. The AT Pro has a knack for pulling out coins and rings amongst all the junk. I just love that iron audio set up.



Here's a real beauty I dug up. It appears to be an old jar lid from a jar of Kraft Cheese Whiz. I love the inscription......."SAVE JAR FOR HOME CANNING." Looks like Kraft dinner has been around for a long....long time. Heck, it filled me up when going to college and university when money was tight.



Here's the best of the best from today! A good day it was! Nice to see the Garrett Gals out again.

Good items found in that hunt. Congrats !

I don't feel so bad about the bottle tops and pull tabs I find after seeing how many you found, John. Nice finds on the coins and rings. I thought it was still a little chilly in your neck of the woods for the Garrett Gals. HH.
It's been over 6 weeks since I was able to go dirt fishing and that's frustrating, but these posts sure do cheer me up. In regards to the Kraft jar, they were a thriftier generation back in those days. Now, everything is disposable.

Great finds!!! Any reason for the Red Laser, or just for fun???

Thanks,

That was just for fun...I kinda like to experiment at times.....

Hey John, I am new to Metal Detecting and have purchased the AT Pro. I did have a Fisher Aquanat before and did a bit of detecting but it was fairly old and I needed to upgrade. I am having some trouble with the AT Pro. I get many 'good' signals but am unable to rescan and get a hit, especially in the water. I have found a few items; mainly coins, but a couple cheap silver bracelets and junk rings. I am definately cleaning up the environmnent with all the trash I have found. Where are you doing most of your detecting? In parks, lakes, etc? It looks like you are very good and I would appreciate any advice you can share with me. Thanks.
