    Gold duo shows in Galveston!...........

    I went for a spin Sunday afternoon with the Excal, into a 146P -0.1L, light and variable winds and was in the water (late), by 145P. Headed straight for the deep mine, to avoid the crowds, but targets were scarce out there, so I moved in amongst the crowd, closer to shore. Put on a menacing...

    OK, I gave ya'll an appetizer, ready fer the meat? THE MEAT! LONG!

    Went for what I thought would be a solo spin on 08/25 PM, with the Excal. Still have control housing detachment issues with the GQA2, but hopefully my new adhesive will hold! I sure do hope so! I was in the water by 730p, into a 750P -0.3L and SW winds at 5-10. Was somewhat skeptical of this 1st...

    No big deal, but rings were found! WAY BEHIND ON POSTS!

    Have had some GREAT and lame hunts lately and this one was good. Was on a solo spin, with the Excal on 08/20, into a 334P 0.1L and I was late into the water at 3P and S winds 5-10. It was a long hunt, but I felt pretty good about the target density, so I really hammered and stayed on it LONG AND...

    Kinda lame, but thought ya'll would like to know what's up here!

    Went for a solo spin last night, with the GQA2. Was hunting into a 1040P 1.7H and was in the water at 745P and winds SSW 5-10. Approximately 2 hours into my hunt, the control housing epoxy let go and it fell off the mounting bracket. Had recovered the ferrous childs ring and very little clad...

    Well, I finally took the plunge, we'll see!.........

    Ordered a pair of Gray Ghost Underwater Headphones from Mr.Bill, for the Excal. Going to have them hardwired on the unit, next time in for warranty work. Minelab said, that as long as they install them and hardwire, the warranty will still be valid. I will have them ready for the next trip in...

    I-D-BIDY, but I can deal with it, this may be a record gold and something you relic guys will like, you there bda?

    Went for a solo spin last night with the Excal, into a 950P -0.3L and NE winds at 5-10. Was in the water by 9P and headed for the mine and set my buoy, when I signalled the 1st target. Was in the chest to neck zone this evening again. Target density was real righteous tonight, so I felt good...

    OH YEAH! 3 hunts 4 gold rings, I like it! The 3rd hunt.......

    Took the Excal for a solo spin on 08-10 and was in the water by 730P, into a 821P -0.7L and SE winds at less than 5. Was able to head to the stratosphere in the mine, as the tides were real low, but was still hunting chest to neck most of the hunt (I am 5'10"). Target density was not too bad...

    The roll continues and I like it! Gold Again, Max you feel me? #20, I believe, but every time I make headway, he finds 2!

    Went for a solo spin last evening, with the Excal, into a 631P -0.9L and S winds at 5. Was running later than I would have liked from work, but made the best of my time left. Was in the water at 630P and conditions were near perfect. Overall target density was pretty encouraging and clad count...

    Been a while since a gold ring graced my scoop and Max is gettin' away from me on Ring Daddy!..........

    Huntress and I went for a long spin on Monday the 6th. We began at a new surf area, we had never been to and were hunting into a 429P -0.6L and S winds at 5-10. We were in the surf at the 1st location, with the Excals at 1215P and hunted till 140P and bailed, with empty pouches, except for...

    CZ21 update..........

    A vender has pushed us back for a part needed for the CZ21. Initial reports were for a possible release delay of October 1. We will work with the vender and could have this time cut down considerably---possibly the first week of September. Information regarding changes will not be...

    OK pirates, lets start a little headphone thread here........

    Am thinking seriously about having Minelab hardwire a set of Gray Ghost Underwater headphones on the Excal. Who runs them and why do you use them? Is there any better performing headphones, than these? I need submersibles, as ya'll know how I am. I am lobble to stand on my head out there, ya...

    Well, here's what I've been up to.............

    Went for a solo spin on the 29th, with the Excal, into a 931P -0.7L and WSW winds at 5-10. Was in the water by 630P at the 1st location and bailed at 730P, with 2 cents. Tried another area at 745P and bailed at 830P, with 26 cents. Finally ended up at a decent area at 845P and got out the GQA2...

    Gulf Hunter special!.............

    Thought perhaps some of you would like to take a gander at a real scoop. 11LBs and stainless steel. When waves are pounding, it stabilizes me, when current is running hard, I'm anchored, when treasure needs scoopin', it don't break! Handle is 3041 stainless pipe and T. I like it! [attachment...

Got $7.22 in clad, a ferrous hair berrett, a UTMB parking token, Rain Forest Cafe copper medallion, large & small non-ferrous...
