Its fresh drop sweep time! This is where us Fisher guys better make a good showing! With all the summer outdoor fun just beginning, our F series have a superb advantage over some other products in this regard, (you know what they are) hit your spots early, hard and fast! Quick broom, head on a swivel, look for cash and chains too...leave the heavy gear behind, carry a light sandscoop on the beach, screwdriver or pinpointer on the grass. Unfortunately, you have to leave a lot of trash behind...nows not the time to be cleaning up after others, just how many empty beer cans and dirty diapers can one guy carry? Those nice cool fall days are for digging deep silver, these days are run and gun before the sun! You've seen it before, but here it is again, last July, at the surface, while others were a gridding and going slow...Lets go get it!

Speed sweepin!~ I just got back, got a silver earring, a toering, a bunch of clad, a nice jacket and a skateboard! just getting in shape for next week and the following several...smoke jumpin to beach tracks and fresh sign..no pattern at all, keeping an eye out for sparkly things, cigarette butts, whatever says "a girl was here yesterday" after all, the girls wear most of the bling, and where they are there is usually a guy close by too. Theres a few spots that get the "afterhours" crowd, that seems to be the most productive on nice warm nights with an onshore breeze. Good luck Jim

Right behind ya mud haha....hh rick in mi.
 
Yeah Rick! Boy the game has changed with these beach cleaning machines running around snarfing up all the bling. You can take a quarter, or a nickle drop them in the yard, and see how fast you can go over them to get an idea just how quick you can move on the sand, how high your coil can be etc. The 3H, 4H, or DP really help in the identifying targets, low disc big iron whack could be a knife, or SS watch, or keys. You know our beaches here, they are so dang clean you would think your machine is off half the time, the only time I slow down is when there is a cut opened up at the surf line, but its more of a visual game looking for the sign of people activity, and jumping from one cooler footprint, or towel mark to the next. Luckily, the speed sweep season is short, then into the water I will go, and up in the high sand where the machine cant get, up in the dune grass, and those steep dune trails have stuff up in them too. I found a ring (junker) tied to one of those ribbons from a balloon, and empty cigarette packs are a good place to store valuables, so I check all of that stuff. Anyway, a fellow can sort of crouch down, and take long strides, and swing a huge arc fast and really cover some real estate with these F series light units..Good Luck
