One day I am going presume to come and impose myself on you... you have some great sites. (Don't worry, I live too far awway)

About as old as it gets around here is the 1930s and oinly once and a while at that... you are blessed to have sites that produce such as you find. Are you hunting costal plantation sites?

...and what is a T & F ??

Nice finds!

What do you use in the water, what machine? Do you wade, scuba, or snorkle or what? I'm interested to know more about what you think of the V3, I am having a bit of a hard time warming up to it but it is the first White's I have ever used. This isn't the place to talk about it though. I'll check the V3 forum from time to time to see if you poist anything about it. The ET seems so much easier to use to me and I don't think it misses much.

i"m guessing the T and F stands for the T2 LTD and the F 75 LTD. Just a hunch.

Hey Jim----Now don't go gettin in any hurry to start swingin that T & F!! ----Hang in there with ole Elli, she has & will do you right!----Remember a few months ago when we were P.M.ing each other about this "brand new" Etrac that was out?---A lot of people were "bad mouthing" the ole girl (Etrac) back then--but lookie here what we got---GREAT.---Can't beat it with a stick!--------Del

Yeah, Jim's talking about the T-2 LTD & F-75 LTD.-----They are sorta interesting but--------

I have a few hours on both the t2 and the f75 actually more than a few....

I will give em another go but i have always leaned toward the T2 .....

The Etrac or Ellie is my main girl .....i mean detector.....She has awesome see thru abilities and I hunt with an open screen except for a 27 bottom black line and toggle open all the way on the fly and between standard coin on the fly .....I still have pristine SE and Original soverign but Ellie getss jealous pretty easy.... Julien in the water I use 2 barracuda's that i built and an original Excaliber with sea search coil , a 1000 blue ear Excal.....,an original sting ray and last but not least AN Aqua Star big IKE case.......I wade mostly but do use scuba and a dredge once in a while.....but the Joe Sink Hooka get the work done win the going gets tuff and the tuff get going.. Snagged these 3 one day last month when I took a break form bottle diggin....
