Hi everyone. Just got my etrac and I'm loving it so far. I have been looking for a small coil for less than 150$. Which one do you recommend? My only coil right now is the NEL hunter 12.5 x 8.5 inch, and I need one that will perform in the trashy areas and still give good depth. I have a few options so far: The 5 inch sunray X5 coil, 8 inch sunray X8, or the 6x8 SEF detech. Also the minelab FBS800 one. I would be open to other options too, just wanted to hear everyones opinions. Thanks!

From that list, definitely the 6X8 SEF. Has better depth than it's size and excellent separation...notice the size of the plug at this CT schoolyard, the coil on a XS Explorer
I still had dig down a couple more inches to get the Large Cent...

Since you have a 8.5 coil....I would get the Detech 5x7...killer in trash!
