    From 2014 [attachment 333448 SoundView2014.png] Yesterday I encountered a friend who said she had wanted to send me this pic for a long time and here it is for one and all to see what winter on the Connecticut Shore looks like.

A neighbor called asking if I would search for his lost wedding band in the waters of a nearby state beach and when I placed fully charged batteries in my favorite PI nothing but silence in...

    :usaflag:Whatzis? :detecting:

    Water hunting yesterday I recovered this heavy bronze thing that would appear to be attached to a pole/handle with some sort of device suspended between it's arms. The 10"+ spread of the arms might allow a scoop of some sort to be attached. [attachment 326465 DSCF4935.JPG] Wire brushed the...

    :usaflag:Second gold for 2016 :detecting:

    Mr. Dual Field, Diablo and this Old Hunter had an interesting 2 hours "out there" today! I barely got my boots wet in the 40F water when the ground swells started outa the south east. Had to hunt with one eye on the incoming watching for anything that could knock me off my feet. I was lifted a...

    :usaflag:First water hunt of 2016=very little silver and a little more gold!!

    Yesterday I chatted with my Friend Frank and he assured me that a small spot (where he was hunting at the time we spoke) has cleared away enough sand to offer at least some hunting for a change. This AM as I enjoyed my usual morning coffee down by the water I checked the spot from a distance...

    :usaflag:Lousy weather hunt(inside outa the wind and rain!!):detecting:

    When I recover targets I take them home, count the total and enter the number in my diary. Then a quick look to determine which are keepers usually saving the "final inspection" for lousy weather. The accumulation was about a 5 gallon pail full of odds and ends of metal that were all jumbled...

    :usaflag: Late afternoon hunt=4 interesting finds :detecting:

    It was getting late in the day when Mr. Dual Field, Diablo and I waded out for a 1.5 hour hunt beginning at 3PM and ending as the light faded after sundown. This big ring was recovered in waist deep water after I chased it down from about a foot depth to over two feet down between some very...

    :usaflag: Reached milestone # 50 :detecting:

    Yesterday AM I managed a two hour water hunt at a small local beach community and recovered as my second target a 9.49 Gram platinum wedding band about 15' from the edge of the water. I must say I was considering keeping the $331.00 worth of precious metal, but I was sure the person who lost...
