Killer Day At The Lowered Lake!


Recommended Posts

The largest lake in my county is about 30 minutes away and they’ve lowered it for the winter.  First time I ever hunted this lake was last weekend at a small beach area.  Only got clad and it’s included along with today’s clad.  
 

I started off at that same swimming area.  It’s pretty small and I got all the high conductors last weekend so today I dug medium and low conductors.  I got a scratchy mid 30s signal and out popped a gold earring.  After I got home I confirmed a 14k stamp on the little hinged piece that goes through the ear.  
 

I then moved down the shore and came to an open space about 40 yards worth of shoreline between houses on the shore.  I soon hit a wheatie. Then not 5 minutes later I hit three silver dimes all within 3’ feet of each other.  Probably a spill.  After those three I say to myself “game on”!!  About 20-30 minutes later I got a nice sounding 94 and up pops a ‘56 GW!   Right next to it along with a bunch of iron grunts was a 90-91 and another silver rosie!   I kept scanning that area and through the iron grunts I’m getting a high tone with mid to high 90s numbers popping on the screen.  I dig down and up comes a 1960 big ben!  Most likely another spill.  

To top things off, when I got home my new MI6 pinpointer was in the mailbox!IMG_4241.thumb.jpeg.cc8b05785d45cf1cf5eea21d8d2620a3.jpeg

Thanks Bob!   Btw, do you have a tip protector on your mi6, and if so, where did you get it?   Thanks!

Thanks for the link I’ll check those out.  I remember seeing 98.  There was iron grunts coming through too.  I was in program 3 with sense at 95 and reactivity anywhere from 1-3.  I don’t recall what I had the reactivity set at when I found it.
