And I thought they just sold chicks at the feed + farm......🤠

Already planned. yup yup.

The stone walls will get their own turn under the coil.

I haven't even really started on the field yet , No crops these days but want to beat the hay for easier swings. The guy that lives there found a clad quarter right at the entrance to the field from the woods.

There will be more from this spot..........an old dump in those woods between the field and the house too. (plus another hundred acres across the road on the old farm that this property was once a part of.) Stay Tuned...

Digging through the roots trash my elbows , so need some easy(er) Son's Of The Beach time first !!!! 

That's a lot of beach in that pic.....sea temp is 44* (here).

Well kinda (but that's another story)

 

1 clad dime and 3 memorial pennies , a fishing sinker , an unfired 22  pellet rifle round .

2 1/2 pull tabs and a bunch of tinfoil balls one of which looked like it was turning back to aluminum ore! ( or maybe it was just BBQ sauce ?) and a few odd pieces of iron I haven't washed off yet?????

About 3 hours in park1 sens 22 , f2=0  disc = off., the 6" coil on the fully updated 800 

Swinging in an old campground (it was root city) I watched being built 60 years ago when I was a little kid 200 yards across the cove through mom's binoculars cuz I was too young to row that far ......somewhere in the wilderness that is the southern Maine coast..I was surrounded by old growth white pine that were protected by the King of England for ship's masts for exclusive use of the Royal Navy....My fave site 30' straight up a cliff from the water ,,,and only covered 1/10th of it. , 

  (It's overlooking "my rock" , where I've been fishing for striped bass since I was 2. It was low tide 2 clam diggahs on the flats , one arrived by boat.........)

It was sunny  On shore  S. <5kts  62* 

No pics..

 I am unworthy.

One question......

Is that the best you can do ?

Swing extra slow where you find those sinkers.....

IIRC mine came with  v1.7.5  (early 2020) . 

Thx for the dot locations.

Welcome aboard els1

Tell us more about what type of detecting/prospecting you would like to do and what part of the US you're located ... and while you wait for responses check out this page  

Sounds like you have the right idea.

Don't worry about the gear , you have more important things to consider.

You can still "detect" here on the forum......

ALL KEEPERS !

Looks like you found a great spot ! Even the boy got a few !

Practice bomb. Too shiny for a relic,,,,sure would be a "take it home" for me !

Maybe stop a Coast Guard boat and give them a day to remember item. arrrrrrrrrr

Yup yup.

Being in tune with the tides is a big plus for beach hunting.

wish the weather would get in synch for the neg low tides  though......

I scuttled my beach plan for today pretty cool start and winds increasing to over 25knots ,,,probably too many depositors in the way anyway,,,   Nice days are comin'.

That was a good day , my last trip I got a clad quarter , a rusty bolt and a pull tab...... 

  There are also "negative low tides" (sometimes  as much as.-1.7' here) a few days each month.

Some places it doesn't go out very far at all , depends on how steep the shore is.
