    Show me your rigs!

    In the beach forum here, someone asked me to post my scoop carrying/dragging hookup and I thought it might be helpful to our newer Safari users to see how each of us carries his/her gear. Heck, I bet if we all post how we do things, everyone can get some new ideas. So in that spirit, here's how...

    Can we discuss what to look for in a scoop?

    I'm looking at being able to beach hunt a lot more in the near future and would like to get a good scoop. I'd like to hear what properties you all look for in a scoop, notably handle angle, hole size, mouth shape and anything else that matters. I'll be hunting sandy beaches almost exclusively...

    Observations on a Coin Garden

    About 2 years ago, I 'planted' a coin garden. Today, I dug it up as we will be moving later this year, and NO ONE is gonna dig my silver! This post is some things I learned from this experience. I started with a clay-rich area that I dug everything metal out of and then added about a foot of...

    Got run off today

    1st time ever, I was asked to leave a schoolyard by deputies today. Now I had asked the Sheriff's Dept and the city Chief of Police before I began hunting the parks and schooyards in this area. Everyone said, "there is no law against it; be sure and fill your holes and dont be an idiot" (or...

    Safari at 20

    I normally run manual sensitivity between 14 and 17 but this weekend I found myself in a schoolyard (!) running a manual 20 sensitivity (thats max for you nonSafari folks) and my machine ran like it was in Auto. Granted, this was a lower trash portion of the yard, but this school has been around...

    Silver's rate of tarnishing in salt water

    Anyone have a feel for how long it takes sterling silver to develop that blackened tarnish in a saltwater beach environment. Also interested in wet sand vs dry sand rate if you have any ideas there.

    Any good summary sites for Florida beach laws?

    Myrtle Beach was a bust due to their recent sand replenishment program, so I am looking for other beaches for some vacation time this winter. I know about the "Treasure Coast" and their leasing of the right to metal detect there (altho i'm not entirely sure exactly the areal extent of the TC...

    If it reads like a quarter( 38 ) but looks like a can....

    Killing some time this afternoon with the Safari, so I hit some local grassy strips next to city parking lots. Trash City; so bad that I quit everything below a 32. Dug some can slaw in the 30's along with a few zincs and 1 Cu, then got a strong shallow 38. Whoopee, so I stick in the trowel...
