Gulf Coast Galveston Beach Trip - Please Help

[rockyredbaron]

I'm planning a trip from N Tx to Galveston area for my first ever beach excursion..probably a few days after Labor Day.? Im using my Garrett GTAx 1000.? Soliciting inputs from all ..especially the Garrett detectorists familiar with the 1000 that can give me any and all pointers to maximize my success.? Unfortunately I wont be able to plan the trip around the tides and winds, so it will be mostly a hit and miss ..but anything anyone can provide in the way of tips would be most helpful.? My 1000 has a beach setting so plan on using that unless y'all think it may be better to use the All Metal mode and just dig everything.? I will be focusing on the wet sand mostly at low tide but plan to cover as much territory as possible.? Places to focus on, areas at Galveston, settings, coils to use, etc are the things I could use for tips.? Thanks to you all.?
