little silver from the lake

[carcur]

hit a local lake for about 3 hours water is pretty low
this all came out of the dry sand and rocks
ring is 4 grams and about 2.50 in clad
as you can see lots of lead and fishing gear

A ring is always nice to find Curtis.

With all this dry weather the lakes ought to be getting low this year if the rains don't pick up. I was up at Tahoe earlier this week and noticed there was not much snow on the ground. The ground is still frozen up there though. While in Carson Valley I notice the snow had melted pretty well on the south facing areas that get the sun. Still pretty frozen on the north facing areas in the shade.

With all those old pulltabs you would think gold would be hiding in there somewhere. Hope you find it and congrats on the silver. At least its something.

Nice going on the silver! Even though it's practically worthless, I always don't mind digging lead. Congrats.
