This Years Fresh Water Beach Hunts


Dan(NM)

Recommended Posts

I've hunted this fresh water beach the last 3 days with some decent luck. The first 2 days I hunted it with an Explorer 2 with an 8" coil, and did ok. I went back today with the Nox and did even better 🙂 My settings were:

Park 2
2-tones
0-ground balance
Disc -9 to 0
recovery speed 4
F2 0
sens 20

The gold ring hit a solid 12
the 2 little pendents rang at 1...found within 6" of each other.
silver ring 5    open ring, not connected at the top
silver beads 12, I've found 8 so far
The little junk beads hit at 1

all the cleaned up silver was found with the Explorer 2

Lol...I'm going to go back to the same spot and come at it from a different direction. I'm also going to drop my disc down to -3 and see what else is hiding in there.

Nice little hunt Dan!

I guess you really have to dig a lot of trash to get to the good stuff!

I plan to hit up my yard again on Sunday, as I know that there is a lot of trash in it. It used to be a church for about 100 years.

So I am really interested in finding more items from the 1800's. Should I find a ring or 2 so be it, but the trash is going else where.

By what I see it is quite obvious you were after GOLD.......

Hey, I do the same thing.

Very nice digs Dan and well earned consider the amount of trash you removed from the lake shore.  Yes, be sure to dig those clean hit #1's as I have found some nice little goodies with the #1.

On a side note, why do you still have an Explorer boat anchor?  Yes I still have an E-Trac (sold my CTX 3030), but I exclusively use it with a 15" WOT and X1 probe.  It is my DEEP Silver machine.  Yes it too is heavy, but the ergonomics is better than the Explorer.

Again, nice digs.

Thanks Gerry,

I have an Explorer only because it's been chopped and looks a little different now 🙂 It actually swings better than my Nox does. It just needed a little help.
