What are considered the "must have" accessories?
I have a detector, propointer and a digger but not much more.

If you hunt a lot of parks and schools, you may want to learn how to pop coins that are less than 3" deep with a thin screwdriver. Makes recovering shallow target fast without cutting plugs and pissing lookie loos off
At schools I will pop all coins less than 3 inches which is about all of them.. Sunday I gathered about $8 and dug about 4 plugs..
If you buy a new screwdriver (strait blade, 6 inch 3/16 blade) get a craftsman so you can get a new one if you break it off.. so far only broke mine once in the summer when ground was real dry and hard.
Forgot the TP and Ziploc baggies.
Here are what I condiser must haves for my hunting style.
Head phones, Digging tool, dig cloth, gloves, finds box, trash pouch, head lamp, pinpointer, knee pads.
I hunt a lot of parks and I hunt a lot after work which means I'm hunting in the dark this time of year. In addition to the above "must haves" which I have on my person while detecting I also keep in the truck:
spare digging tool
spare battery
spare headphones
long sleeve shirt (for the woods)
fleece pullover (for cooler months)
rain suit
flashlight
magnifying glass
water bottle
another finds box (in case I hunt multiple locations I like to keep the finds separate)
Sniper coil
hat
sunscreen
bug spray
Good grief I don't exactly travel light do I? But if I'm out hunting most of the day I don't want to be cut short.
