So I usually have to pretty much beg or barter or do some kind of con to get out anymore to do any night time metal detecting. Rather sucks esp since lately all the low tides are in the middle of the A.M hours.
I was happily surprised when my wife asked if I wanted to go metal detecting and when is the low tide? HUH? She wanted to go shore fishing and we took my mom and stepdaughter..
So we got there about 1 hr before low tide. Not the best low tide but it was a low. The waves and breaks were massive. 10 + footers and the energy of even ankle deep water rushing past me would nearly knock me over.
Anyways I threw my waders on and got out there about thigh deep.. 30 minutes in I got a Solid target. Although its a Tungsten Carbide (BOOO)... it actually had a diamond. I assumed it was a CZ but after testing it, it actually is a REAL diamond... SWEET!!!!!! I'll take diamonds on TC all day!
