Casper, your pictures and finds got me started on water detecting. You helped me once before on wet suits. I bought an excal earlier this year and found about 50 rings (8 gold) in total. I just recently retired and plan on detecting every day as soon as the WI weather allows it. Once again I see your finds and I am impressed. I wish you even better results in 2014.

MULTIPLY WHAT i GOT FOR SINKERS AND LURES THIS YEAR BY AT LEAST 10
FIGURE IF I LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO RETIRE - WILL CLEAN ALOT OF THE LURES UP - PUT NEW HOOKS ON THEM AND SET A TABLE UP BY SOME OF THE POPULAR FISHING SPOTS - MAKE A FEW EXTRA BUCKS - BY THEN i SHOULD HAVE EVEN MORE

IT REALLY MEANS ALOT TO ME WHEN I HEAR BACK FROM PEOPLE THAT I HELPED THEM IN THIS HOBBY WHETHER ON LAND OR WATER
MEANS EVEN MORE WHEN THEY HAVE GOOD SUCESS
- I HAVE WRITEN A BUNCH OF ARTICLES IN THE PAST - MOSTLY ON WATER HUNTING - MOST ARE TO HELP OTHERS - IF ANYONE IS INTERSTED THAT HAS NOT SEEN THEM - DROP ME A LINE AND WILL SEND YOU A LINK

I take it you are a beach hunter. If your a fisherman you really can supplement your tackle box. Great finds. Good luck in 2014.

That is a very nice batch of Gold.
Was going to mention the tackle...see you have a good plan for it.
I didn't get in the water once this year, something I will remedy next year.

Thanks for posting the great thread & Awesome finds .

I hope to one day do the water hunting thing ( bucket list, tho I don't care for the word)
also kinda landlocked here in N Ga. .

IMO That salt water does a number on those silver coins ; Still neat to see you found some older types (Mercs, SLQ,& were there a couple WL Halves).

One more ? Does the extra .25% silver in the sterling help it stand up to nature than the 90% US coins ?.
or Did You clean the sterling up more?. Just curios
Thanks H-N-Y !
Davers...:thumbsup:

Im a water hunter - I hunt cellar holes and farm fields on land = you will very seldom see me on the dry or even wet sand - you will usually find me up to my neck

Those are some nice looking gold rings there! I have always wanted to detect in the water like that. So cool! Congrats on all the finds!
