Traveler was in the area, so I went over to the coast to meet him and another local legend, Tom_in_CA. Both gentlemen were a pleasure to meet! Unfortunately, due to preferred hunting methods and conditions, we had to divide and conquer, so were not all able to hunt together for long.
Traveler and I wanted to get in the water, so we headed to a beach and chased the low tide back up the beach. He was on clad right away, but it was a quiet hunt for me as I fought my CZ into submission. Once subdued, the CZ started pulling in the goodness for me, though! It was a record day for me, with six rings, my first stainless ring, my first copper nail, and my first set of ocean pliers! I'm going to see if I can bring the pliers back from the brink of death.
Below are the rings: Silver, gold (2.0 grams of RMI 10K), and junkers to the right.
UPDATE: I broke off the accretion from the pliers, wire brushed the rest of the rust off, and darned if they don't work just fine! Shocked the heck out of me!
Also, I posted my video on YouTube: https://youtu.be/YP9wax029eE
