Gold ring #106 FTY

Nice Ring OBN, I remember hunting in the same kind of weather, through snow storms real cold winds where you had to wear a face mask to protect your face, but I was called crazy and other names but I hunted year round in R.I .
 
Great job on fat late season Gold! Congrats! :cool:
I'll be getting in as long as the water stays wet!
Thanks Irons, And no doubt, you guys wrote the book on cold water hunting.

D@mn OBN! Leave something for someone else! :shock:

R5

Trying to keep the locals from finding any, so far I think it is working.

Wow incredible year! Those were all found IN the water correct? Excellent work!
Thank You! Yes, in the water only. Here most of the beach's are private. There is a thin line once you come out of the water you can hunt, but the best comes from in..

I forgot what the gold rings look like, cant find a shipwreck coin from the 1700s , but ill keep trying, U DA MAN Joe
Thanks Earl, It will happen, best is to get out as often as you can.

I second that. I dont remember what gold rings look like anymore....Hey nice job OBN!! Thats a great ring.
Thanks SS! Been a real good year for big rings.

You make me wanna CRY... 106 for the year???

I was totally feeling good about my 56 golds lifetime, in the last 3... And then I read this post... WAAAAAH.

Pretty awesome, though... and what a great find a honker is. Fun!

Would love to see a pic of your treasure box, sometime. I know you hoard the stuff, like a dragon. :)

Thanks Skippy, 56 is very good. I'm retired now and have the time, so it makes a world of difference when you can pick and choice the best conditions to hunt in...And I am Blessed to live near water, the Chesapeake Bay.
 
Congrats on numbers 106 and 107! :clapping: The gemstone in the first is beautiful... can you identify it?
 
It's cold, snowy, and windy and we have 31 more days in the year to hunt. I see a lot of hunters posting this is it, the year is over. I learned from the best, the boys in Connecticut. Winter comes you ain't a Pirate unless your out chipping away the ice to get in a hunt. (Michigan boys are a different book, maybe the tuffest of all)

We are not there yet but it is coming....Mid temp day, 41, rainy but water was calm and 45F. A good day to get wet...


Last target of the day a Class ring, 13.1 grams, with the "fit all tape" on the shank. He was a dirty old gold, 1961 but cleaned up nice.

Good job Joe... only 28 more to top last years totals ;)
 
If Tungsten Carbide was worth the price of gold , id be lookin good , hunting more is 2019 resolution , before i get attacked for not hunting enough , I Plead the 5th. Herd responces 1000 times , when i do get out - its the effort that counts , in closing OBN dont know how you do it, in your mid 60s, i have all ready slowed down , late 50s , young or old , A Master hunter that Shut's them all up , keep finding the treasure Pirate . :detector::dingding::kingdances:


And look what detector he uses... he doesn't need the latest and greatest because what he has is the best. 1 machine not a entire room full.
 
Really happy to see your killing it this year. It seems that every year is a deja Vu year. Congrats on a great year. I wish you many more to come and have a very Merry Christmas!
