Default Tonights Hunt=Silver!

Went out this evening for about two hours to an old resort I have been hunting this summer. Things started off a little slow but I finally started to pull some deeper wheaties. Most of them were from the late teens to the late thirties. A short time later I got a shallow dime hit at about 3 inches and to my suprise pulled the Merc. All in all I had a good hunt with eight wheats and the lone silver. I am really starting to get the hang of the E-trac now and can't wait to get out again soon.
