I guess it makes it 1 gold ring per month or so about the funny thing is the 2 wedding bands was found in the very short hunts like 30 min water hunts. Where long 4-5 hour hunts has produced No rings. Its funny how that works out. I hope I can still make the ring daddy page with these finds. I am going for 10 for the year this year and 20 rings next year.

Thanks for looking, oh yeah that fire opal is really something.

All of those are excellent finds. I especially like that custom opal ring.

I have the same experience. I seem to find more on short hunts than on long hunts. For example when I am limited to 2 hours for a hunt I seem to bring home more. When I have all day to hunt it's usually a handfull of garbage. :D

Keep posting the nice finds. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks all for the welcome message but have been around for some time here, I started hunting up in GA and now I move down to Florida Gulf coast around Destin area. I go hunting at the Destin beaches, Navarre,Pensacola beaches and its just paradise down here for a metal detector guy like me. We just need some sand to move and for the communities to not put new sand down then we should be golden.

I'm a 13 year old hunting rookie and was just wondering what the best places to hunt in Navarre Beach with my Bounty Hunter Discovery 1100.
