I was able to take the second half of the day off on Tuesday at low tide and spent about 4 hours I think.

Hey, It was a beautiful day and almost zero wind, you just get in the grove and forget about everything.

I'm really getting to know my AT Pro and not looking at the numbers and only listening to the sounds.

Very nice, you gotta love it when the water is calm. Cliff and I went to Sobe last week and it was amazing even though we found no gold.
congrats!

I commend you on your first Gold. I still have mine, well, my wife has it. Two things I'd like to ask. Why not a shot of your surroundings on vid? How about a shot of your camera setup and how you control on/off? The bottom appears tobe a little muddy as apposed as sand? I guess that was 3 asks. :occasion14:

HEY! Congrats! :hello2::hello2::hello2:

Nicely filmed..nicely done! You have a nice piece of personal history there. I'm surprised we didn't hear any expletives ...are you sure that's your first?

My wife had to wash my mouth out with soap after my first <smile>...and while I don't have a video of it the memory will last a long, long time!

Sonny I plan to keep the ring. I'm wearing it but I'm using my wedding ban to keep it from falling off.

1. Your right I should add a surroundings shot. I didn't think of it because I was trying number two
2. I Just got the GoPro clip attachment and had it clipped to my pouch
3. The bottom is a mix of sand and grass beds, and in some areas its muddy and clay like crap

Thanks everyone for the all feedback
