    Swimmen hole loot

    Since i got my new Excal I thought I would go ahead and empty my loot bucket from the swimmen hole. I keep a 1lb coffee can in my truck to dump all my finds in, other than jewelry. All these finds were found with my AT-Gold and E-Trac from one dried up swimmen hole. I am going to be using the...

    Inside the E-Trac

    Over the next couple of weeks I am going to be turning my old Trac into a water proof beach machine. I have had my Trac open before a couple of time for other reasons so I am not afraid to pull its guts out. There are some tricks to getting it apart. Since I have it open I thought I would show...

    1 more silver

    I got to the swimmen hole just before dark today and had just enough time to get about 20 minutes of detecting in. I was digging a pocket spill, in the dry sand, that was driving me nuts. When I was sure there was nothing but zincs left I swung to my right and got an overload tone on my Trac. I...

    How about a bEach-Trac

    I have seen a Sovereign and an SE turned into water machines, why not an E-Trac. I was a Minelab dealer when the E-Trac came out and the one I use was my store demo unit. It has been abused. The screen is scratched, its been dropped several times, batteries have popped in it, and it has been...

    2 more rings from the swimmen hole

    The whole family decided to go with me today. I had my wife and my 2 sons with me today. They were using their F2 in the dry sand and they were getting a little bling. I think they found a couple of ear rings and some change. I went back to the water with my E-Trac. My targets are still down...

    Gold from the swimmen hole

    I have been hunting this swimmen hole for a couple of weeks with my AT-Gold and now with my E-Trac. The water is about ankle to knee deep. It is a river bed full of sand and gravel with lots of hot black sand. I have pulled a bunch of silver jewelry out of this place, but the Gold has been...

    Big silver with my E-Trac

    I haven't posted here in a while because I have been detecting a swimmen hole. I don't like taking my Trac out into the water but today I did after I tied it off to myself.

    4hr hunt with the AT-Gold

    I spent 4 hrs at the swimmen hole today trying to get some more rings, but no luck today. The water has stopped flowing and the little pools that are left are full of dieing fish. This will probably be my last water hunt until the drought ends. I ran my ATG in all metal again an dug everything...

    Prospecting with the AT Gold

    I went out again to try and find some gold with the AT Gold. I was on a private ranch today that was one big quartz dome. I have panned gold from every draw around this hill, but still no nuggets. I ran my machine in AM with sens. set with just one bar off. My GB ran from a low of 36 up to 75...

    I got gold with the AT Gold

    WELL ALMOST. The river is flooded for the first time in over a year so I cant go prospecting. I am still learning this new machine so I went and hit some parks. I was using disc 1 and only digging the shallow high pitched targets. I was getting lots of easy clad and after a while I started...
