Thanks Dave, I was really lucky. Those 2 nice finds turned good hunts into great ones. If not for them I would be kicking myself for not trying a few other beaches like I usually do.Right on George! Congrats on the high quality honker swiss cheese! Awesome bracelet too!
Very , very nice finds ! You were overdue like a library book ! What is especially nice was you being lucky enough to hunt without it being overrun by other guys. These recent hunts for many have been reminiscent of "the golden age" , when it was like this on 50% of my hunts. I've been doing a lot of recon up and down the coast. Hitting about 15 different beaches. Over exhaustion has set in. It is total hit and miss. Some being hunted , others not. Some that look really good , but aren't and vice-aversa. Many are being heavily sanded in right now but the low tides have been presentable. Finds are still there. Keep up the good work.
Thanks KOB, Wow.....15 beaches! That is a LOT of work. I might try 4 or 5 but sometimes if I'm finding even a few targets after high tide I will stubbornly stay until low tide thinking that the good stuff is hiding down low. It's a gamble that sometimes pays off like it did this past weekend.
To be honest, however, there were probably better beaches to hunt than the one I was at. I found very little lead, no old coins and just a few small blackened silver rings. Very happy with my end results but I think I beat the odds on this hunt.
