Default Hunted alone today
Went out to a local lake today and hunted for eight hours. My arm is worn right out but it was a fun time.

I used my Sand Shark so I had to stay out fairly deep to avoid the majority of the junk signals, but I still dug a lot of small junk of course. That's all part of hunting with a Pi.

It was a pretty good day, nice weather, lots of clad and three rings plus various other odds and ends including a matching set of ear-rings. I dug one of them in near shore on my way into the lake in the morning and the other was my last target from out deep when I was leaving for the day. Very cool!

Also got another Superman ring which surprized me since I dug one two weekends ago and my buddy John got one last weekend when we were out, so this one today made 3 weekends in a row that Superman rings were found. Very weird...

Anyhow, here's the loot for the day...



HH all

Nice hunt with the sand shark! You may want to think about mounting it on your chest. I use mine this way when I am in the water. I can swing all day without fatigue. Let me know if you want some info on that.

Good haul. Congrats. Does the Sand Shark pick up Kryptonite?

That's a nice collection.
Is that a sewing machine bobbin? Strange place to find a bobbin. HH
