    Sanded in week on the Gulf of America

    They raised the size limit on flounder. It was 15 inch minimum, now it is 16 inch minimum. Can have 5 per person and no more than 10 per boat. I would guess that the area 51 lights out was for a next generation stealth aircraft. Maybe the next generation bomber? Either that or ET was visiting...

    Sanded in week on the Gulf of America

    Never went out for big tuna. I think wife has the pictures of pulling up the crab pots on her phone. I'll see if she can find one or two. Here is the nice size flounder she got two summers ago. Most of the ones we get are not big enough to keep, but this was more than big enough. Great eating...

    Sanded in week on the Gulf of America

    we had a great trip. Had a cousin and her husband with us. They have been with us on the Gulf before but had never been to New Orleans so we did a three day trip to NOLA. We had a full week in Panama City Beach; not a lot of targets, and over about a two mile stretch of beach did not find much...

    Sanded in week on the Gulf of America

    Was in Panama City Beach for a week. First day there they were dragging beach lounge chairs onto the beach stacked in piles with several rows of piled lounge chairs. They are preparing for a bigger crowd come spring break. Next day the chairs started to get buried in sand. By the end of the week...

    One thing I'll do when I don't want to fight the waves and decide to stay in the wet sand is, when I find a target I'll start at that point and start a spiral out from the target and see if I get more targets in about five or six spirals around the first target. Spirals are close enough to make...

    Interesting history.

    Can you read the headstamp? Here is some information about WWII era head stamps. http://nebraskaaircrash.com/50caliber.html

    Interesting history.

    They are doing beach replenishment in the Myrtle Beach area now. Normally after they do that the 50 calibers from WWII training they did just off shore before sending new pilots overseas get pumped up on the beach and there are more to find. I've got a couple handfuls of them.

    I doubt it but did you hear of anyone crazy enough.......

    If I found something like that, I would not wait for help in carrying to get there. I'd more likely leave it submerged and take it out in smaller bundles at a time and not tell anyone!

    CZ/3D

    12 inch test on a dime is a good one. Many years ago, I looked far and wide for a FZ12 coil and finally got one that was in a bundle with a CZ5. The guy would not sell just the coil so I bought the entire bundle. I kept the FZ12 (it has not come off my CZ6a for about two decades now). I sold...

    Tejon Interference

    I've never had a Bandido of any version. I've searched parts of the yard with my F75LTD and Compadre. For small gold chains the disc needs to be set to not discriminate out anything if you can even see them at all. Nearly all the stuff I've found in the yard at the new place falls into three...

    Years ago on a hunt with a Fisher CZ in the water with a coil cover on, as the hunt progressed I was digging fewer and fewer targets and all were dimes or quarters. When I got to the car, I tried some targets and found it would not hit nickles at all. Pulled the coil cover off and saw a lot of...

    Well life rolls on

    Coin check was on the Troy Shadow detector. It would discriminate out things with lower conductivity than copper US cents. It would discriminate out most Indian head cents as well as zinc cents and nickles.

    Wonder if they even test them after manufacturing. Testing takes time and time is money. If they have very few issues on newly made ones, they may not test them. Good luck getting it sorted out!

    I stopped using coil covers a long time ago because of experiences with stuff getting in and adversely affecting detection. The most used coils get a good cleaning and a coat of marine epoxy applied as added protection. Hope it all goes well!
