Man the ocean looks like a lake today, so I think I'm going to take Mr Excal for a dunk as Mr Dew suggested....Hopefully I will finally get one signal out there , where the fishy's hang out

If you don't hear back from me, then either I am floating out there somewhere or I found squaddush...
Some will be happy and some will be sad
Good Luck today if you get out !!!
Here are the results for today
Thought it was going to be my lucky day, when I found this:
Mehhhh...It was alot of fun, but the west winds never happened and it started getting a bit rough as the tide changed and winds were blowing from I think the East..Got pretty choppy
Nothing great, but almost no trash at all...
Missing from the pic, cause it must be with my wife is my proudest recovery of the day..It was a tiny post earring that flashed gold and fell through the scoop on the first dig..I spent the next 20 mins recovering that little guy only to find out that it wasn't gold
Still proud that I got it after a few faces full of water and getting bounced around..Now I know I can retrieve most anything
Bunch of Junk jewelry and $1.69 in Clad
...
Took Mr Excal for another dunk today and spent about 2.5-3 hours in the water and on the fringe...Not many signals out there with the fishys, however the ones that I did get, I am starting to retrieve easier and easier...I guess like anything , it all takes practice...My left arm though is about ready to fall off
I would like to thank Craig, for a tip he gave someone once about putting your left foot on the coil and then placing the scoop right about your toes..Works well Brother !!!
Totals for Dunk #2...
.37 in Clad
7- Arcade tokens- some kid is not happy
Stainless Guitar Pic
Some sinkers and some more junk jewelry
I only have 10 days left till my one year anniversary, so if I plan on breaking $400 in clad for the year, then I better head back to the dry sand of Drunk Monkey Beach...Stand by
Excal Dunking Day #3
Okay, so today I had to go out after all of the talk this morning of Ginormous rings...I just couldn't take it !!!
Today was my most accomplished day in the water and I was in there all day..Probably like 4.5-5 hours...Mr RTG is starting to get along with me much better
Check out these totals today at a new water hunting location
3 hours into the hunt and I dug a grimey little bag, that was tied together with a leather pull string, in about 3 feet of water at about 3/4 low tide..It was down in the second scoopful after taking off the top layer... Hmmm.. What do you think ???
Totals:
$5.84 in Clad 16-Quarters 13-Dimes 6-Nickels 24-Pennies
1- Bag of what do you think
Some asst fishing lures/sinkers etc..
1- Sultan Action Figure (you can see that he is green with envy)
Not a single piece of jewelry- no fake or real ??? strange ??
It was 95 degrees out, but nice and cool in the water..
Even the lifeguard commented to me "Man you were out there a long time "
I know I'm going back here soon
