    Tiger Shark attack!

    And she was tear'n it up today! First 20 minutes landed the gold then the Gucci sunglasses($100 to $120). 2 hrs later came the womens polarized Ray Bans, not even a mark on them($150)! Then the silver with "Believe in yourself and magic will happen" and boy was I believe'n the Tiger, yea! Another pair of sun g. which I could'nt find on the net but are nice. The knife is one cheapie does'nt lock so in the garbage it went along with #88 butane lighter. The last silver ring was deep but could'nt hide from the Tiger,roooaaaarrrr!! Got ya! This was a first, not in finding a cell phone but a waterproof one! Flipped it open hit the button "Boom Baby" lol! We all no that this day and age our life is on these things and most that I find are history. I have already contacted the owner. Its a co. phone and he had already been charged $300 for the loss. Needless to say he was happy to hear from me. It's a Casio Gz One I think,and had been in the drink for almost 2 wks. I asked for no reward just reimbursement for postage. Last pic is garbage take for the day. The bag is my accumulation of several hunts. If your like myself I always keep one in the trunk, seems like there's never a garbage can around when you need one!

    Was your hunt in fresh water? Since my TS leaked I havent used it in the water. Tesoro serviced it but it has only about 60% of its former functions. I might sell it for parts, if I wasnt so attached to it. Congrats on the great finds. How many hours?

    Seriously? Send it back to Tesoro again, I can't believe they couldn't get it back to full function.

    It cost me around $200 and I wouldnt trust it in the water. Postage alone is $25 and I sent it back 2X. I bought it new for less thsn $600 a few years ago and it performed well in most locations although not as good as my Excal.

    Was this at the beach, or do you hunt fresh water swimming areas? I live near the NC coast if ya come this way. I have heard the TS is not great in salt. This is why I asked about fresh/salt.. Great finds!!!
