    Sardis MS with the Tigershark

    Hey all, I headed to Sardis Lake this afternoon got there at 2:30 and hunted for 3 1/2 hours. I did what you guys said and hunted on "0". Found a SLEW of pulltabs, a watch battery, the little piezo electric dingus that starts a lighter, a toe ring, and a 70's style hoopti earing. None "real"...

    Hey all, I headed to Sardis Lake this afternoon got there at 2:30 and hunted for 3 1/2 hours. Found a SLEW of pulltabs, a watch battery, the little piezo electric dingus that starts a lighter, a toe ring, and a 70's style hoopti earing. None "real" metal. I also found 2 dimes and a Zn penny...

    Kentucky Lake

    Hi all, I went to KY Lake last weekend with the Girlfriend. I was using my new Tiger Shark in the water and she was using my 1350 on the beach. She wooped my tail! In coinage I found a nickel, she found 1Q, 1D, 1N, 1P. But I stomped her on fishing weights!!! She seemed to enjoy beating me so I...

    old farmhouse

    Went on my first hunt of an old farmhouse after work today with the 1350, the weather was beautiful! I got a total of 6 pennies (the oldest was 1968)a ton of screwtops (they must have done a BUNCH of drinkin') and a Motorola cell phone that I actually got working. I was able to watch the videos...

    swimmin hole...

    I took the girlfriend to a swimmin' hole today for a few hours trying to get her hooked on MD'ing. She used my 1350 on the sandy beach, and I used the Tiger Shark out in the water. She beat me with one penny to my .22 shell casing! I spent some time getting her acclimated to the machine, then...

    jewelry and the 1350

    I just made a valuable discovery, I borrowed one of my girlfriends gold hoop ear rings, and a 14K 3mm 7" gold rope bracelet and ran them under the 1350's coil. They only came in at 2.5!!!! I couldn't believe they were so low, heck jewelry mode doesn't start till 4!! All settings were "default" I...

    another ? about the Tiger Shark

    Forgive my ignorance, but I am coming from a Garrett 1350 land machine, and am wanting to get my feet wet. Since the Tiger Shark doesn't have a conductivity meter, does it have different tones to identify iron from something non ferrous? If not, how do you have any idea what is under there...

    "Retro" post oldies from my first MD

    Thease are from 1990 when I bought my first MD, a Master hunter 5. The old copper / brass looking items are the part of an oil lamp that holds the wick. The Iron object I have NO IDEA what it is, but it has a pivot point and teeth, so I am assuming it is some kind of cinch or strap holder. I...

    Tiger Shark and SALT WATER

    Hello, this is my first post on the Tesoro board. I am looking for a good water machine to use mostly on fresh water beaches in TN and MS, and am considering going over to the "Dark Side":biggrin: and getting a Tesoro. From what I have been reading the Tiger Shark pretty much fits the bill for...

    Sardis Lake Ms.

    Well, I have had a permit to hunt Sardis Lake beaches for almost a year, and figured while the water is still low, I would give it a shot. I got there about 2pm today and hunted till 5pm. Totals were 2 nickels, 3 Zn pennies, a dinosaur, and a bunch of pultabs. The targets were sparse enough to...

    Hope this isn't a sign...

    I went to a home site I recently started hunting, and they were LEVELING the ground (and house) with large earth movers, ( ON A SUNDAY!!! ) so I went to an old abandoned school that is always good for a few coins. I found 3 pennies (one wheat) and broke my digger. Went back to the home site...
