Well it was a red flag day yesterday and the water was just unhuntable. Started with a stiff neck, right heal had me some what hobbling..... then it rained on me first thing.
BUT..... i was there so decided to hunt some dry sand. Which is my last resort .... i just dont like the heat anymore and the amount of trash. I set the MDT up for gold hunting...... basicly just looking for 1 to 13 digits. By the way bottle caps fall at 15 or higher.... tent pegs in the NEG. I get pull tabs at 7 so im dealing with most foil in the 4 range... but not all foil. Running in AM i dug the cross first ....... about 5" down solid 4. What i realized was ..... in AM the machine just gives a response of BANG BANG every time you swing over the target. A lot of water machines with multi tones have a tendancy to break up in an attempt to give a more accurate ID. So i should have that as a problem. No chain around.... but i think this one was buried by the tractor and maybe moved since i was a good ways from the main beach area. Man ..... i couldnt believe the amount of bottle caps and tent pegs out there.

I don't mind the dry sand as a lot of you on here do, it's just brutal in this heat unless you're out there early. The dry sand is not bad in the late fall winter when the water is too rough. Congrats on the cross - very nice looking! Any id so you can try and return the soldier's ring?
