Default Couple of low tide rings this morning

Went back to my old haunt Huntington Beach this morning... For the first time the beach had that Fall feeling. Overcast, Misty, very little swell, no current and warm. There was a really low tide at 6:30 this morning. Found a strange 'Flex' ring with 5 fake stones that only a grandma could love.. Prolly the ugliest ring I have ever found. There was not many targets out in that low tide like you would think. Found the .925 silver heart ring just before I left that somewhat saved the hunt. The cross is solid copper with a coating of some sort. On the strange side of this hunt, I got a faint signal that I could only bring up one direction...scooped my hole, rescaned and got nothing...dumped out my scoop and found a childs plastic toy. My machine picked up the small screw in the back of the toy...amazing. There was also more people this morning with detectors than there was surfers..go figure! Still a fun hunt next to the big pond.

Glad to hear you're still finding the goods! That flex ring is crazy, they are popular with the kids here right now....

Nothing wrong with that haul.
Ive been wanting to go for weeks but priorities just keep coming.
Thinking about a vacation for a week just to do what I want
Good to see old Huntington is still producing.

Nice hunt BV. That is one homely ring though for sure. I'd still take it
