Finally, After 7 Days Of Work, I Got In An Hours Worth Of Hunting

[John-Edmonton]

I just had to get out and get some dirt on my fingers. Seven days of not metal detecting is enough to make a grown man cry .

Got about an hours worth of hunting in, then I was in the dark. Days are just too short.

Some clad that you dug is good. Glad you can still get out

 

[John-Edmonton]

so, are you covered with a blanket of snow? We got up to 8 C today....the high tomorrow is supposed to be 6. We have very dry, no snow ground.

good hunt John

We've had snow on the ground for over two weeks.
Temp in the daytime around -5 and nighttime -15 plus
Ground frozen about 4 inches due to lots of rain in the fall

Good you can still get out. We had snow today and the ground is already frozen due to a very cold November. I will have to head south if I want any action.

By the time I got out, it was too late to go anywhere else to hunt.

You take is goodun', by todays standard.

That isn't right. I am working in the snow almost everyday. (I'm a pipe fitter building a power plant and there isn't a roof on it yet.) Right now it is coming down in big flakes and the ground is like a rock. We have been breaking records for lows.

 

[Uncle Willy]

Did you do some wiring or get wired?

... years of training and credentials up the wazoo leave me eminently capable, old friend.
I didn't fall off the ladder even once, I didn't hurt myself with my tools nor electrocute myself. I never even got a spark.

On top of all that, it worked right the first time.

Like I said, an eggspert.

It's been frozen and snow covered here for weeks now John. I think that I read somewhere that using my ACE in extreme cold will kill it, besides freezing my own ACE off. Is it true?, will the cold ruin my machine?

Go back and read some of John's posts from last Winter. He hunts some in some very extreme conditions. Personally, I find my technque goes to heck when I get too many layers of clothes on or worse yet, gloves.
