    Fisher Dude

    Oh God, I never thought I'd become a Fisher-man. But, I sure like my Gold Strike. Sure it arrived an eyesore, but a big hammer, chainsaw, and my old trusty Tig welder, it's pretty cool now. And, with the little 6" coil it'll sound off on a BB at nearly 4" (my old Lobo St only go about a...

    Killer Bees and Bounce

    By now everyone must know the effectiveness the clothes softener "Bounce" is on bugs. Just toss a sheet in your shirt pocket and if there is an abundance of little fliers around (bees, gnats, 'skeeters, etc.) just grab the sheet and rub it all over your face, arms, and other exposed body parts...

    Gold Strike, Damn', did I fall on my sword?

    Yea, I couldn't find a GB2 any where. All the dealers said maybe after the 30th. I couldn't find even a used one......even on E-bay. But I did find a Fisher Gold Strike. Ugly thing! No knobs, just push buttons. You know, like just about everything else we buy, these days "microprocessor...

    Gold Bug discussion welcomed.

    The first G.B. came out operating at around 20 khz, the frequency then went to 60 khz in the G.B.2. Much bragging was done about that being the ultimate gold finding frequency. However, when the G.B. Gold Strike came out the frequency was lowered to 30khz and now with the S.E. it has been...

    Fisher coil I.D.

    I have a Fisher ("F" with wings emblem) 10" Elliptical coil. It has a 5 pin plug and a number on a white stick on paper of (03095375). The cross supports have the fisher "V" appearance. Can anyone I.D. this coil? Will it work on a Gold Bug ll? I bought it to use on a Big Bud Pro as a DD but...

    Gold Bug ll question for the forum.

    Hi... I'm on the verge of ordering a Gold Bug ll. I have other detectors I use for coin and general detecting. This will be for gold prospecting. If you had it to do over again, would you order your gold bug with a 6.5 " coil or with a 10" coil? And do you believe the 14" is worth the...

    Looking for comments about Infinium

    Hi... I've gotten the hots here recently to get an Infinium. Even to the extent of putting up for sale my Lobo. But now I've found Infinium's weigh 6lbs 4.5 ozs. Wow! Now that's about what my old "Mossey Regel " weighs with a full load of Pheasant poppers. I tried holding it by the stock...

    P.I. Vs. P.I.

    Hey guys, I'm an avid coinshooter and love it like all of you. But lately I've sort of been including "nugget hunting" along with the coin hunting. My question for you is this; Garrett offers a P.I called an Infintium (spelling?) . I'm curious, have any of you compared one to one of the...

    Where it all be?

    Shucks, I be gone fer a few days and all the fightin' and fuedin' over Harbor Freight "garbage can lid" finders and Garrett Pro-pointer "BB" finders has all died down. Maybe the former, just gave up and took all their garbage can lids down to the scrap metals shop and used the money to buy...

    Magnet handle.

    Anyone know what the Meteor Men on T.V. are using for a collapsible handle on their "meteor magnet" device. It look familiar but I can't place it. Thanks, Ron.

    Grubbing tool.

    FYI. Garrett has out a new digging tool reminiscent of a small "Grubbing Hoe" I've had one identical to it for years. The point is this; Garrett wants $29.95 for there's. You can buy the same thing at OSH with a steel tubing handle instead of their wooden one for $14.95, half the price...
