nice set- congrats on the double score
Congrats on being on the board so early Jim. I tried but failed in Florida and will be in Mexico in a few weeks.
They look great for this time of year. Hope your finds are better than last year

Hats off to you getting a double in the icebergs! 
Good job on the two gold Irons.. what is the water temp if I may ask?
Thanks! It's 32 or 33 degrees according to the websites I check.
Grand Haven Beach Water Temp 32°

Yikes! IDK, if I'm going to be in waders in March, I think I'd rather be chasing steelhead.
I'm hoping you are wearing waders...thick ones at that!

Thanks! The blueish stone is junk. I thought it looked pretty unique too but under a loop it's all scratched and chipped up.

Nice gold...... but i prefer my ice on a beer bottle, in a margarita, or out of the fridge.
Not enough cloths to keep me warm up there anymore.
I just got back from Indy after 9 days. I dont think i ever seen the sun..... rain rain rain. Funny.... my brother-in-law noticed my new looking wrangler jeans and was wanting to get a pair. So he asked me how much they cost? I told him i have no idea...... these were 10 years old..... i wear nothing but shorts and flip flops

I went out there this am...frozen sand, skiff of ice between the shore and the bergs, also layer of ice covered sand on the bottom......found a dime, a penny, and an empty can also worth a dime, then I cruised some parking lot snowpiles eyeballing for bills and cans......So I would say conditions are not at all optimal for West Michigan Big Lake Gold Hunting, besides Irons, who is a well known insane, suffering in the terminal stages of Gold Fever............ Maybe a month from now for the rest of us if then?

You can do it Mud. I am not fond of hunting in a slushie like some of you are. I used to. Love to see you folks out there and freezing!!

You got THAT right! I went through 4 packs of HotHand Toe warmer stick ons in 1/2hr! One set inside my earphones,, another set in each mitten, two in my boots, and the other two stuffed down the back of my pants to keep me from freezing my @ss off! That self adhesive backing on the HotFeets really comes in handy! Way much better than the standard issued Hothands! Here in Michigan, I'd like to have a coat made out of them!
