13 gram Gold from Daytona Beach

Thanks everyone for the kind words...




That water isn't the right color for a FL beach :lol: Nice hunt Joe... just give her some dark chocolate and she will forgive you ;)

She had three pieces left last night, my guess is they are history by now...

she loves chocolate like I do gold

Gotta hand it to you for dealing with the worst beach sand that balls up into a hardball sized round glob of sticky goo when you try to sift it in the scoop.
Like that down by New Smyrna Beach too. Oh. That was actually way up north. Nice job on the goods.
 
Curious...your signature says Viper with skullies. One of the Florida store Vipers? For real?

Follow this forum a lot.. You kill it on gold... Curious as which machine. I am just an inland hunter mid state Georgia. Looking at a lake machine... Thanks Carey

Thank You..
The Viper thing is Kind of a Joke here on the Beach forum, really it is a Excalibur, with the remote PP, and a set of extra loud head phones that really help me hear faints. At these older beach's the Extreme faints (in PP mode/almetal) are more then likely a good target because they have been buried with silt and sand over the years. I have got much better with the machine and have learned to slow down when I get a few good targets, and often I can come in from one direction then come back thru from another and hear stuff that was missed because of the way the target was setting..This hunt here I worked a area maybe 40 feet by 15, over and over..
And I am going back again Friday to recheck the area. I have found sometimes when a area get disturbed a few days later other targets will appear..and they can be faint or shallow, ones I have scooped and dropped to the side and missed.

Sure hope that Tesoro salesman doesn't copy and paste this to his beach detecting 101 tips:laughing:
 
Those targets are NOT Daytona. You guys are shifty these days with all those codes. :laughing: That is bay water I see there...:p

Oh blip, I went back and read all the other posts. I knew that was not FL water. :laughing: Maybe Georgia. That is where I find ALL my good targets. Florida sucks. I am moving back to Virginia and hunt Ocean View. :shock:
 
Thanks OBN... i have a friend that bought a viper.... offerd it to me cheap.. was wondering. i have one small lake and two beaches on it to hunt. have found stuff but times have changed and now the crowd that uses it well... lets be polite and say nobody goes but them anymore... and the goose poop from now local canadien geese year round is totally disgusting. it is like detecting in a dog kennel. so between the dregs of society and the dang goose poop i have not bothered to get a water machine. but thinking since one beach is not used anymore much except company picnics and by the geese. i can deal with that better than the dregs.. thanks again.

charming little lady ( respectfully ).... reserve hunting for old age.... there comes a time...:no::(:roll:;):laughing:
