I have an AT Pro. As well as it might work on the beaches where I live, I'm always wondering if there's something more I might be missing. Especially in the water.
I'm just now getting healthy enough to really hunt in salt water. I'm not able to dive on air due to a TBI. So I'm mostly in chest deep water or shallower. My AT Pro has taken a beating in this environment and I really don't want to keep putting her through that. Also, to be very blunt, it requires a LOT of time going over each prospective target with the AT Pro in four feet of Gulf of Mexico water. I need that AT Pro to last because lets face it, the VA is quite well known for suddenly stopping benefits and I've gone through that slinky effect with them already. I just cannot afford to make many purchases in this hobby I so enjoy. So once I make one, I need it to last for a good many years and since the AT Pro is such a versatile machine, I want to limit its scope to dry land, dry beach and perhaps some fresh water. I've already been having some issues with it falsing due to salt water.
So if a guy were going to look seriously into making a new purchase of a serious salt water/beach detector, what would you all recommend? It will require some further finds before I could afford a new machine. So no rush to answer. And I simply do not use credit cards.
Thanks for any advice you'd be willing to give.
