    Tough hunting on the Gulf Coast

    This time of the year you have to hunt differently. Not nearly as many people willing to get into 60 degree water. So you have to do the dry sand more. Something i dont do a lot of now days even in the winter. In the water you have to keep that coil on the bottom and find the low areas or...

    A Hypothetical Treasure Recovery on the Beach

    Let me see .... she was hunting in an area she knew was illegal...... then she attempts to defraud the government..... and make gain from that by pretending she dug them to put on her channel. Shes not doing much for this hobby .... thats my opinion. Honesty might net her less cash...... but...

    Can anyone help recommend a scoop for beach hunting for me?

    StarvR is a reasonably priced scope $140. Then put a $15 fiberglass shovel handle on it. Get one with a point so it don’t roll on you in the water. If you are just dry sand hunting they have pretty cheap one. Depends on …. Where you use it(dry, wet, or in the water) also the type of material...

    Today's Best out of the Box water machines vs the Super Modified

    I’ve still got my fingers crossed that the production model of the Fisher AQ PI will be digital. Getting away from old school knobs could fix some of the issues. The MDT seems to be an upgrade IN the water over VLFs. Salt balancing makes a difference and IMO should be on any machine in the...

    Question about beach finds

    It’s been my experience….. when the police or park managers or DNR get a complaint from someone it seems easier to tell us no than tell them we are in the right. Now Fls has more no trespassing sings on the beaches all the way to water with some craziness that’s got home owners drawing a line...

    Lines in the Sand

    Ya we get a bum rap compared to most trashy beach goers. Who dig man holes, Berry cans, pop their tops and leave anything they are to lazy to take to a trash can. Gridding don’t upset me in the least. We all can be a little Karen about our hunting areas that we want to protect

    SABASO Water shoe review

    I’m still partial to 6.5 mm Mares hard bottom dive boots with zipper. The bottom don’t wear from the scoop, don’t smell over time, and tight enough to keep shells out…. Easy on and off.

    Question about beach finds

    You can be charged with anything...... but theft requires that you KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN it was stolen. Many states do have laws about found property...... even laws about anything over certain age. One reason why posting very expensive finds has a down side. Those officers didnt use the...

    $1000 fine for going to the beach...

    Our beaches here in the Gulf were closed about 3 mos. open every sense. I don’t think our numbers are any worse than any other states. Some countries seems to prove putting us on lock down doesn’t seem to do anything. It’s going away at its own pace. The CDC changes its mind almost daily...

    Who makes the best Carbon-Fiber shaft for sand scoops????

    I’ve heard no one complaining about any certain company.... it’s important to know the ID of your handle hole thou most I’m sure know based on the type of scoop you have. I think it comes down to price
