I'm looking to get my first water machine and I'd like to stick with Tesoro. I belive the Sand Shark would be better for all the salt water that I would be hunting in, but what is everyone else's opinion. I know they are both out of production right now, and I can only find used Tiger Sharks. I would appreciate and facts and opinions about the two. Thanks

You posted the same question in the "Tesoro" forum. I have given my opinion there. :icon_thumleft:

Just remember with the sanshark you will dig up everything and I mean everything, even freaking staples make it go off.

It all depends on what type of water you will be hunting ... If your going to be hunting in the Salt --- get the Sand Shark and the tiger cant hang in the salt ... If your in the fresh, the tigershark is hard to beat.

I do know of a Dealer who has -1- unit in stock (Tesoro Sand Shark). He did have 2, I bought the other. :D

If your wanting the sandshark let me know and I will pass on his info to you.
