Popular Post Againstmywill Posted November 27, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 27, 2020 I had about an hour before we were going fishing for fish this morning, so what better to do than to dirt fish? I was trying out a new set of aptX LL BT earbuds that were ordered for when the other ones start to fail. They paired fine, but they certainly were not fast. If I'm running 7 recovery, I don't want them to sound like a 3 recovery. I disconnected them and continued to hunt. About 5 minutes into no earbuds, I got a strong 11 ID. Not knowing what it really sounds like, having taken the earbuds out, I decided to dig as it seemed like a robust signal. The Carrot was able to hit the object from the surface, so it wasn't too far down. There are no markings, but from the looks of it, it appears to be about 18K based on my wedding band at 14K. I believe this makes 10 gold rings/necklaces for the year. To my recollection, all found with the 15" coil with 7 recovery. I remember the first few years of detecting when I found no gold. I really appreciate this machine! Florida weather doesn't hurt either, as it is far easier digging in non-frozen soil year-round! Almost forgot...fished for fish for 4 hours and didn't catch a thing. ? 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valens Legacy Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Great find on the ring, sorry for no fish though. Did you try using the beach settings to find the fish? Good luck on your next hunt. Use a slow crank bait for the fish, it is getting cold and they don't move as fast. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fish were trying to hide in the shade to avoid the heat! It may have been the 10 ft. alligator that was limiting the number of fish.? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valens Legacy Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Well I didn't know you were in Florida and I can understand about the gator scaring the fish away. Since you had the gator there I would have used a week old chicken just to say I caught something, but you would have needed a bigger pole. Still a good catch on the ring! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
