    Been shopping around for a dry suit...................

    They are VERY expensive. I just thought it would be real cool to have onw as opposed to the neoprene waders. I don't like having depth limitations as to where I hunt. Need a lighter weight 1 and good mobility. Sometimes it's just too cold for the wetsuit. Do any of you have drysuits? Lemme know...

    OH, what a chainy evening I had last night-ARRRRRRRRRRRRR!

    Went fer a solo spin last evening to a clean surf area and it was not real clean as ya'll can see. Ran the Aquasearch. I still think I did the right thing, because some targets were deep. Began the hunt last evening at 7P into a 845 1.4L, however the tides were WAY below normal, as we had a...

    Took a little solo stroll with Excal this evening and got ran out!.....

    There was a norther coming in and I was trying to get as much hunting in as possible. Was really hoping the lightening would not show though, but it did. I will hunt in the rain, no problem, cuz I'm wet anyway right? Lightening is another story. You ain't never seen a white boy walk on water...

    Anybody wore through their coil cover on the Excal yet? How long does it take?..........

    I purchased the Excal 1000 in Jan. of this year and absolutely splintered the coil cover by June. Reordered a new 1 from Chuck and while it was on order, rubbed through the coil. Installed the new coil cover and it has rubbed through on the last hunt. Have thought about putting the epoxy on the...

    Went for a spin with Huntress on monday afternoon. We began our hunt at 3P into a 552P 0.3L and SE winds 10-15 and I was running the Excal and ended up with 1 penny in this area. We quickly moved to another surf area and I ran the Aquasearch and ended up with 1 1965 quarter here. [attachment...

    Got silver, but gold's hiding from me.......

    Went for a spin on sunday (09-24) with Huntress from 330p-730p with the Excal and Aquasearch and could only muster $.49. I was late for the good low which had been earlier in the day. My t-hunting buddies willia in tex and Spanky had found 3 gold in that same surf area, but not me! Went for a...

    OH YEAH, Davy gives up 4!

    Went on a solo hunting mission last evening, with the Excal in disc again in a trashy surf area. Began the hunt at 5P, into a 8P 0.4L. It was pounding last night, but I took my beating and it paid! Actually found the 1st large .925 filigree ring in the lane, but soon headed deep into the mine...

    Davy gives up a little of both! I like it!

    Went for a spin last evening with Huntress. We began our hunt at 330P, into a 713P 0.3L, 15-20K S winds. We tried 2 different surf locations and felt them to be quite sanded. I was running the Aquasearch at the 1st 2 locations and ended up with $.50 and a nice knife, which was WAY DOWN DEEP and...

    Went for an evening spin with Huntress on Tuesday. We began the hunt at a little after 7P, into an 808P 0.1L, but had a nice light north breeze and the tide was out almost over the 2nd bar. Was running the Aquasearch in a clean surf area and hunting for deep whispers in the mine. Ended up with...

    Changed locations and gotta a little off the mark...........SILVER!

    Went for a spin with Huntress on sunday evening. We were both running the Excals. We tryed a couple of surf areas that we have not been to since Aug. 24th. We began our hunt at around 7P and the -0.1L had been a little after 6P, but it was still real low as we are in 2 tide days. Winds were...

    Davy gives it up again-gold & silver-I like it!

    Decided to take the Excal, with a fully charged battery after work on friday evening for an appetizer spin. Began the hunt at 645P and the tide was just about dead low at 0.0L. Winds were light out of the SE. Have been hitting the same area lately, as it has been producing good target density...

    Davy lets go on 2 gold!...............

    I have not even looked at the forum in 2 days! I ran the Excal and went for an evening solo spin on the 30th to a surf area that has been producing good targets lately. Hunted from 815P-1215A with 5-10 N winds. Tide had been low about 3P, but it did not seem to matter. Ended up with $1.77 in...

    Marathon Hunt for Galveston Surf Pirates.....Well 1/2 of the team anyway!

    Huntress and I went for a day hunt on monday, 1249P 0.7L SW 10-15. Our hunt began at 930A in a recently productive surf area and it was sanded and not producing any target density, same with the second area. The 3rd area was much more interesting though and targets were plentiful as you can see...

    Huntress and I went for an evening spin on saturday night. We began at 630P into a 1107P 1.0L, with winds SE 15-20. We hunted 2 surf areas and I was running the Aquasearch. They both were pretty well sanded and I was just doing the PI gig, looking for real deep whispers. The left part of the nut...

    Aquasearch sniffs out 2!

    Went for a spin with Huntress and coastwise last evening. We began our hunt at 630P into a 1018P 0.4L. Winds were 10-15K out of the S. We hunted 3 surf locations and the 1st 2 only produced a little clad. The 3rd location was really sweet though! This would have been my 6th hunt without gold...

    Aquasearch returns to Texas..........

    MrBill sent my Aquasearch back safe & sound to me on friday. I have a friend who is going to design a mounting bracket for the control housing to stem for me. My problems began on my 4th hunt with the unit in the surf, when I ripped the wire out of the control housing, when I spooked a school of...

    Schooled by Huntress, but found Aladdin's knife?????.....

    Went for a spin with Huntress yesterday afternoon. She had requested a day hunt, so I put on the sunscreen and obliged her. We began our quest at around 11AM. Winds were light out of the south and we were hunting into a 217P 0.0L. The 1st surf area was a little thin and ended up with $1.07 clad...
