    Beach Hunter ID tested - :thumbdown:

    I pulled a stupid move yesterday and left my scoop at home. Hal and I drove 45 minutes to the lake before the gaff was discovered. Guess I can now join the Big Boo-Boo club. Ah, well - moments of brilliance... :crazy: Anyway, good old Hal, my detecting partner, brought yet another detector...

    Tried a BHID yesterday - THUMBS DOWN :thumbdown:

    I pulled a "GDMax" yesterday and left my scoop at home. Hal and I drove 45 minutes to the lake before the gaff was discovered. Guess I can join the GDMax Big Boo-Boo club, now. Ah, well - moments of brilliance... Well, good old Hal had yet another detector, this time trading his Tiger Shark for...

    Vaquero - Schoolyard King!

    [size=medium]Like most detectorists, I have tried many detectors in my nearly 20 years in the hobby. Name a brand commonly available and I have likely tried some, if not most of their offerings. But every now and then I like to go back to my roots; back to basics, so to speak. My first detector...

    Reducing Thermal Overload...

    Its HOT HOT HOT! Everywhere you look the country is gripped in a coast to coast heat wave. The TV news is gleefully reporting on it daily, Al Gore is as pleased as he can be over it ** and the rest of us are simply left to swelter. But, my partner Hal and I have the solution - fresh water...

    I met a Nosy Patrol Fascist, Hal got the Ticket....

    ...Hal and I finally figured out how to get to the "Sandbar," down at the river, today. It was a little hike, but we made it. This is the outlet of a small stream, emptying into the river. It has sanded up over the years and made a nice place to pull up boats and party - which is what folks do...

    Lake Water Nut Hunt - (non-Garrett commentary)

    Headed to the lake for a few hours of water hunting. I hauled my TS, since Mr. Garrett hasn't seen fit to provide his loyal followers with a truly waterproof detector. Some make mods and do other things to H2O proof their Garretts, but I prefer to have a purpose designed unit if I can...

    DetectorPro Wader tested...

    I tried one today and thought highly of it in many respects. I've always thought it was a dandy of an idea, mounting the controls in the headset like that. With all electronics and batteries in the ear cuff, it is very lightweight, as you might imagine. Maybe a littel tooooo much so. I normally...

    Tiger Shark Nut Hunt today

    Headed to the lake for a few hours of water hunting. I hauled my TS and Hal brought his DetectorPro Wader. I have just gotten my TS back from the shop with some new insight as to what I was doing wrong all along. Things went better today, with no cussing or cursing James Gifford. The TS is...

    Beach Hunter ID users - sound off

    Been doing a little looking at a 2nd water unit to accompany my Tiger Shark. The White's BH ID got sort of overlooked by me until lately. This puppy sounds like a pretty nice dual salt/fresh model - at least thats how it's billed. It also seems a fair compromise over the Excal - which is...

    Tiger Shark learnings

    I have been a long time Tesoro user and a few years ago I got hold of a Tiger Shark for $375. I figured that was a good deal, so I didnt pass it up. Since that time, though, my TS has been in the closet - high and dry. Knowing it was designed on the same platform as the Bandido series, I...

    Tried a T-2 today...

    ...I thought it was neat. It had a lot of features I didn't really know the details of, as it was my first go at one. I've used detectors of all kinds, in all price ranges and I will say that it was easy to set up with the normal functions. I found it pretty intuitive, in fact. I also liked it's...

    Tanks a lot - today's puny hunt results.

    [size=medium]My hunting pal Hal and I headed out today to reconnoiter a swimming beach down at the riverside. Known around here as
