Finally getting aaround to posting here. Love the site. Bought a DFX recently and love it. Was using a cheap Radio Shack detector that finaly fell apart due to being in the back of the truck with tools, lumber... When I bought the DFX I told her about my RS detector, and all the stuff I found. She was suprised, because the folks who get gear from her, say they hardly found anything with their RS detectors. I have a container full of clad and stuff, and my wife wears most of the rings I found with it.
Anyway, decided to head to the beach this morning before sunrise. Was having my best hunt ever, until the flies started coming out. We had a breeze coming off the land, and that always brings them. Ran out of spray, and called it a morning. I was pissed. I was hitting coins every 20 to 40 feet!! I guess with the heat, the other guys hadn't been out. Make up for all of the hours of getting skunked. Some days you get it....
I have a few whatzits to photo and post one of these days also. Looking forward to heading out in the morning to try again. Hoe the wind shifts overnight. i think it did already, at least it's a lot cooler now.
