You've collected so many permissions it boggles the mind.🤯 You can actually cherry pick the locations instead of just the targets..👍- 18 replies

I decided to leave the hemos in my pouch for things stuck in rock crevices. Getting pics with the chromebook selfie cam is a supreme challenge . More so without sunlight. I figured at least it looked like what it was this time.🙄 The 4" of frozen crust left from Saturday is getting a steady rain at 45* so all ground should be bare again when it stops. I probably could have dug through it but zero chance of disappearing diggings if I did . Shoveling the white crust trashed my elbows anyway so I needed the break .

New Tv Series - America's Backyard Gold With Dave Turin
rvpopeye replied to phrunt's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
I don't watch TV much anymore , but I do remember Dave from back when I did . It's always good to see anyone do well prospecting. And on that note,,,Welcome aboard and we're gonna need more pics of that ring kingnothing420 ! -
Still a good haul . Not what you'd expect when you read Hollywood PinUps ! They probably sold millions of 'em..... I can't help but notice you're tight lipped about your permission hat though . OK , where do we get them? 🥸

Beach Hunt 2023 Has Started
rvpopeye replied to schoolofhardNox's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
THAT would be useful ! There's a beach cam on the bigger ones here but some people live at a beach. There's the best answer! An Airstream on the beach like Willis had in DieHard. -
Well , you did it again ! Do you wear a "permission hat" or what ? 🙄 Aluminum clothes pin ?🤯 And a walker topper ! (That beats whipped cream and a cherry any day..)

Beach Hunt 2023 Has Started
rvpopeye replied to schoolofhardNox's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
And you worried you couldn't beat my hemostats ? 🤣 Just the spoons beat that thing , on usefulness alone.. Every time you start to hunt , the beach finds get nervous 🥸 -
Welcome to the crew lobokai My first detector wasn't a Bounty Hunter. But it was made by them ! A Rat Shack Micronta Discovery 2 It's still hanging on the wall as I type..I found my only gold ring with it. Not sure if I should credit the detector , the lady that lost it showed me exactly where to look.,,,,in 2 feet of snow . On the first beep , I shoveled all the snow under the coil into a plastic tub and brought it inside....so I can say it did beep when I swung the coil over it confirming it is a functioning metal detector ! I didn't get to keep the ring and that lady hasn't called me back to find the ring again ,,,,yet .( and I didn't say she didn't call me back LOL🤩 )

That's a beauty ! Can I have it ? 😏 -
Braving bugs is just a part of it uptah camp. I'm not complaining about the sno* predicted for today....the temps keep the bugs unhatched , which is the only kind I like ! Everything I found last year doesn't come close to that one buckle . WTG ! You're so right about location being most important , and you're surrounded by location ! I'm told I am too but can't prove it with finds ,,,,so far.

Well , that didn't work out as planned.... A detecting buddy came over saturday morning but didn't want to go to the big beach , so we went to a small town park beach but went by another on the way(including the rock I used to fish from when I was a kid) that had more people than sand. No open ocean exposure at either and the low tide is all soft mud flats so just did a ~ 50' wide wet and 20' wide of dry x 200" stretch of sand at beach #2 . Not one solid beep except for a huge amount of ID # 1 . I decided they were not gold rings and notched it out. T-Rex went hungry , nada. Next to an old park on a small river that used to be a ford crossing called Wescustogo. It was covered in mud from recent flooding . And water was still too high to detect , even the banks were under water. My friend detected in the park around the trees and picnic tables and in the weed areas that had not grown up yet. He found junk and not sure but might have pulled out a zincoln too. I scouted out the higher ground and came away with the only non junk finds of the day . A pair of hemostats 8" down next to a big rock on the path from the parking lot and 2 pennies , 1 was a zincoln. All of these spots were less than 5 miles from the LLBean main store , expected more from places that are probably swarmed every summah . I did find a clad rosie right behind my car here on my space in storage while I was waiting for him to show up !🏴☠️

I'm a musician so I have an airtight excuse.... I just realized I posted my beach hunt in your beach thread. 🙄 No charge. I'll move it as best as I can........... Post move due to me being a dum bass (not to be confused with dumb ass.)😜 But I did leave you a couple of likes !
