Default Got skunked! Or did I?
Went out saturday and sunday and got skunked. Yep not one pulltab (lol)
I seem to be doing very well with my Sand shark. Digging alot of bobby pins and lead sinkers but hey im not missing anything else. Anyhow I did manage 4 rings this weekend. 2 gold 14k, 1 silver .925, 1 stainless steel. Not bad. Not even gonna get the stone tested on the one ring as it would appear to be flawless and the band isnt up to par for a stone like that. Nevertheless great weekend.

That looks identical to what I usually empty out of my pockets when I get done hitting the local lakes. Well...except for the gold that is
