    Fisher Fisher Impulse-AQ

    I think this one is still using the original Potentiometers, but I did hear possible big changes are being worked on? Now which......... and if any will make it into our hands is the Big Question. I'm just glad I snagged a second unit for my clock is ticking and I don't see anything coming out...

    Fisher Fisher Impulse-AQ

    Love my AQ's but I would not recommend the current model due to poor battery life. Hopefully in the future we will see the next generation which offers drop in batteries and run time of 5.5 hours. Performance is about the same, very deep. As far as the discrimination side, which I rarely use, it...

    How many remember the very first detector you started the hobby with and how long ago ??

    1993? I had a chance to snag a Whites SurfMaster PI 1000, had it for a few months..got out a few times, only found trash in the bay. Sold it, Work, divorce, to busy with life to get into hunting. 2007 Explorer XS, a close friend I worked with kept talking about detecting so I picked up a...

    First Day with the Fisher Impulse AQ

    Video on settings for hunting a fresh drop beach. Mute mod... Blocking out silver, clad coins. (It still hits bottle caps).. Gold hunting.... See how a small adjustment can make all the difference.

    First Day with the Fisher Impulse AQ

    Good to see another AQ out and about! I think you did great first trip out! As you get more time in it does get easier, what helped me TONS was testing at home and at the beach. Settings, different targets.. surroundings, on the beach, air testing..anytime spent testing is time learning Also...

    JW Fisher 4 foot wide coil with 6x or 8x

    Big coil like that your going to get some big stuff deep. I would almost bet it would miss a gold ring specially if it is a smaller design.

    I use one of the owl shafts, cuts thru the water much better, light and strong.

    Minelab excalibur service

    Call this number, (sometimes you have to leave a call back number but they do call.) they will set you up with shipping to PA... you send in.... they call you with in a week to let you know what cost and what needs to be done. Most of the time all goes fairly fast.. about 3 weeks turn around.

    benefits of retirement

    I agree to a point, more than likely one of the reasons I've done well over the years, being able to pick and choice. But I found you can get spoiled when waiting for those best conditions, when sometimes the bad conditions can put you into spots you normally would not hunt. Something I learned...

    Some deposits are starting to show up

    Hit a bump in the road. Health issue but got surgery in late April and Doc said mid June I should be 100%. So I'm just starting to get back out.. Looks like this Sunday, not expecting much . Start out slow, and do some reconn... seems it takes me month to find the right spot for the year.

    Some deposits are starting to show up

    WTG TVR!! Good to see some yellow with using the AQ.. Heck of a machine. I think once the water gets warmer things will pick up for you. And as time goes by and once you learn the place better you will be kicking out the gold!! Good Luck and Be Safe!!
