Hello everyone,
Well as the title says.
My Dad and I went to the beach for the first time ever with our detectors which is surprising as were 25 minutes from Lake Huron hehe, but yes we're usually dirt diggers. As soon as we got there I knew it was a whole other beast lol, my F75 went nuts. I finally ended up hunting with sensitivity at 40 to 45 and it was still a little more vocal then usual but manageable, but definitely not ideal, I would actually say my Dad's Ace 250 was a bit more manageable there. So I have been wanting to switch to a different detector anyways just because I am the kind of person that needs to keep changing stuff, not sure why...I bore easy. So I want to know what detector is best for a mainly dirt, but sometimes fresh water beach detector, I can only afford one nice detector so it needs to be dual purpose. The 3 detectors I was leaning towards for my next detector is the XP Deus, the Minelab Explorer SE Pro (possibly ETrac) or the Whites V3/V3i. I am not set in stone on those 3, but they are the 3 I've been thinking of. The XP IS MUCH preferred tho due to the weight.
Thanks,
Rich
