Up at 4, read the forums, and out the door!...full moon, drove 25 miles to a town...sun-up nearly, stopped at McD's and got some grub, awful, but fills the void...frost on the grass, and I'm in shorts! Hit some no-account chip totters to warm up...picked fairly clean, not a good sign at all!:ranting: Dropped sens and got up tight, found a little there and in the wide open main, some good hunter picked these well...Went over to a large school complex and commenced to work the soccerfields. Deep thatch, newly mowed, wet cut grass sticking to the coil...I remember thinking its about 5-10 swings between pings..swing wide, find the zone....gonna be a slow day...then I found the lane, well, several of them actually. Started getting several multidenom stacks and spills, some quite nice, the one I remember was 6dimes, a nickel and a P. Several Q spills add up the count fast. Hit the silver ring deep, got lucky with a stab and didn't have to dig... Hit the school door entrances and snow pile zones..focused up on foil around the BB courts....don't need a pouch, just the screwdriver..quick broom both sides of the pavement and move...Around 9am...Had to do a Factory reset as the frost was melting, the readings were all over the place and the wet grass/thatch was deep, making PP and quick stabbing tough. Around 11:45 got my last target of the day, a dollar coin, been a while...pouch was feeling heavy, so I knew I had done alright. Got a silver ring and a silver bangle. Got 146 coins for 14.15 dumped them in the tumbler with 50 more from yesterday (4.52)
Getting more nickels this year as the focus is on Gold! F70 running 11"dd sens 65ish, -3thresh, 1disc, and DP tones...scouted a little of the soccer tournaments that were gearing up for the weekend just to see what kind of crowd was hanging, and where...glassed the crowd with the bushnells from a discreet distance, checking out the vehicles for obvious signs of wealth. looking like a perv probably, though nobody noticed invisible me looking for signs of gold. What a rambling mess this post is.:rofl:. couple of beers and a nap for me...

Thanks Jim...shouldn't you be heading for MN soon? I'm gonna get a 5"dd and see if it helps me in the trash...big weekend up here, I dread the thought of working the sand in a few days...might just stick to dirt for a while yet...

Yep, it is getting close. Walleye fishing and new ground. Whoopee! Well, kinda new ground. Been going to that area for 25 years. Take care. HH jim tn
 
nice pile of coins and the silver too im lucky to get that much in 2 or 3 days you must be feeling spunky these days raising your sense way up to 65 lol hh
 
Those early morning rise and MD till noon can be real tough on us old guys.But WOW you made out well!! Kinda tough to hold off when the beaches are full and the moon is big and bright...I'll be hitting the sand as the moon sets and the water as the sun comes up this weekend!...GL
 
Mud you do some serious digging. :thumbup:

Ha! Yep, the Full moon pulls silver up out of the ground! Theres nothing about as wonderful as sweeping a beach at pre-dawn. Especially after a heavy holiday...all sorts of stuff laying around...heck, a guy could open a towel store. I'm heading back to where that soccer tournament was, I'll set up at 53sens for quick brooming freshies. Good Luck all!

Nice haul Mud!:thumbup: You must have been swinging that coil like blind man in a foot race. :lmfao:
 
Looks like somebody took offense at all the silver comments being made towards him! LOL On top of being a clad monster, now you're going to start throwing silver at us, too! Cruel, Mud, cruel! :rofl:
You da man!
