Yellowstone Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Hit my SoCal beach yesterday and found a good 8-9 inches of black sand below the storm cut. AQ to the rescue using volcanic mode, sensitivity 3, ATS 4, reject 7. Found a cute little 2.2 gram 14k white gold keeper at about 3-4 inches. 11 on pulse delay. Heading back out today to look for her big sister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schoolofhardNox Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Beautiful ring. I hear the beaches of CA are getting ripped up a lot from the storms you have been having there. Odd weather helps a lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellowstone Posted September 13, 2022 Author Share Posted September 13, 2022 Got some nice cuts but black sand is deep. Buddy hunting with Nox could only use pinpoint to hunt. Still a lot of chatter even with PI. Slowww going. I hear some beaches were stripped down to pay layers, but haven't run across one yet. Moving southward looking for the glory hole!

I am jealous here in Virginia. Sand being pushed in by the truck load !!! Even my AQ can’t reach the gold. 😩 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem solved. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvr Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Had some north winds that were producing riptide warnings. They pushed sand in rather than creating the cuts I'm looking for in South Carolina. It's been about a ring per hunt but all junk rings since July.

cjc Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 The AQ can be tricky to tune in fast salt but overall it has a lot of fidelity for varied condtions. Good that you are not afraid to run "3" Sens----still deep at that setting. cjc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
