Over the Easter break, I did three beach hunts, resulting in a total of $3.30 and a few miserable sinkers.
So I decided to give it a rest for at least a week.
Well, today the weather was so nice .. so I changed my mind & off I went again!
I found a reasonable low patch mid-tide which produced the usual rubbish but I did score a few pre-decimals coins.
The big surprise though was this 585 (14kt) dress ring with Rubies & diamond chips .. don't see many 14k in my part of the world!
So I'm glad now I persevered and ventured out again .. gotta put the hours in!
This year so far I have had close to 60 beach hunts,with well over 200 hours of digging!
