    Sunday spin.......Junk/Silver

    Went for a spin with Huntress sunday evening, into a 719P 0.3L and SE winds at 10-15. We were in the water by 6P at the 1st surf area and there were quite a few people in the water, as the temps have risen to around 80. Was running the Excal and just could not put a run together. Got $.35 at...

    Has any of you ever switched the Excal BBS coil to a Tornado coil?...........

    1. Why did you do this? 2. Could you tell a significant advantage, i.e.(depth, sensitivity, weight). 3. Does the coil stay on the bottom or try to float up, causing coil control issues? 4. Is this coil more advanced of a design over the BBS? 5. Overall opinions of the switch. Say what you think.

    Saturday night/sunday morning surprises! Gold, time & silver........

    Went for a spin saturday night with Gulf Huntress. I was late getting home from work and she was ready to go! We decided that we would cruise down seawall and scout out the Kappa prospects. Traffic was AWEFUL! MAN-O-MAN, ya'll would not have believed the bling we saw. We were very much the...

    Hey you geniuses out there, found a ring last night that says......

    SS 14K. The ring was black, like silver would be after being submerged for a time. After being cleaned up it looks like a piece of .925, but could this be white gold? Guess I need to get the test acids out, huh? Wadda ya'll think? There is no plating on the ring. I would think SS stands for...

    Well, once upon a time there was a pirate..............LONG, but worth it!

    This pirate began his career as a rookie water hunter in Jul. 2004. He had amassed a large collection of silver. This pirate decided one day, that the silver was ghetto and it would be nice to send it in to Midwest Refineries, not for the money, but .999 FINE BARS! Well here's the shots of the...

    No gold, but rings last evening...............PI & Excal!

    Went for a spin last evening, 1st to an intermediate clean surf area and ran the GQA2 PI. Was in the water by 630P, into a 1034P -0.6L and NNW winds at 10-15. Targets were poor density and quality for the most part. Got $.60 in clad here. Also found a costume jewelry ring, w/elastic in the band...

    OH MY, WHAT A NICE LODE! GOLD, SILVER, STAINLESS & LEAD!

    Went for a spin sunday evening to leadsville. About the time I was on location, Huntress calls me on cell and says, "Are you sure you got everything"? My heart sank, as I realized that I had left my gearbag at home. It contains my headlight and glove selections. Now, I could get by without...

    Thought I would give ya'll something enjoyable to read! A loot story!

    The weather has gotten real warm and Huntress has come out of her winter hybernation from mding. We went for a spin saturday evening, with the Excals in 2 surf areas hunting for fresh drop, from spring breakers. I had to work saturday and we hunted 8P-1A 834P 1.0L and SW winds 5-10, so we were...

    My fellow teammate coastwise had some orthoscopic surgery on 1 knee today......

    He says the surgery went well and he should be up and runnin' in 10 days. His other knee needs to be replaced entirely. It will be nice to have my looter friend back in 1 piece, so I don't have to watch him cringe, while he should be having a good time hunting! Just thought ya'll would like to...

    Had a Golden Roar of a Time This Morning!..........

    Went for a spin this morning with Spanky. He has been running his new used Excal and is really liking the unit. He has already found his 1st gold ring with the unit. I was in the water by 1A (daylight savings time was really 12A), into a 134A -0.1L (2 tide day) and SE winds at 5-10. Wore my...

    May have topped my sunday loot! I'll let my fellow pirates decide! GOLD 'N ICE!

    Went for a solo spin last evening to leadsville and was in the water by 9P, into a 1004P 0.4L and SE winds at 5-10. Was running the Excal again. This is not PI territory! Went back to the area in the mine, that I had found the chain and brought a buoy rig out there and worked around it, when a...

    OK, drum roll please....................Get ready to shead a tear!

    Went for a solo spin sunday evening to leadsville at 8P into a 931p 0.6lL and N winds 5-10. It was not too chilly when I started and had worn my wetsuit, hoping to get a little hunting in the mine, with the Excal. Air temp and water temp were about 60, when I began.

    Would you buy your preschooler a ring?.........I'm glad they did!

    Went for a solo appetizer spin this morning, with the Excal. I hate short hunts, as I feel rushed. I was in the water at 630A into a 702A -0.7L and S winds at 5-10. Could not hunt as deep as I was able to on monday, but made the best of it. Target density was still pretty decent. [attachment...

    Marathon hunt gets the gold!.................

    I'm a day behind on posts, as I'm at the mercy of Huntress to take my pics and size for me. Got two lefts when it comes to stuff like that! Anyway, my adventure began in the wee hours of monday morning at 115A into a 459A -0.9L (2 tide day) and SW winds 5-10. Hit 3 locations on seawall with the...

    Little gold, but I'll take it!.........

    Went for a solo spin sunday morning. Was in the water at 1230A into a 346A -0.9L. Winds were just turning NW 5-10 and the water was still higher than the projection, but the air temperature was a balmy 66.2 degrees and water temp was around 60, so I had on the wetsuit. Tried a location on...

    PI Strike in the Mine!

    Went for a solo spin this lovely day and ran my Aquasearch in clean surf areas. Temps were mid 40s, but I wore my waders to stay a little warmer today. Sun was just starting to break the horizon, as I began at 630A, into a 927A -0.6L and with the NE winds at 5-10, it was blown out another...
