Mother nature is starting to stir, those northeasters starting to become more evident as we tip-toe into November and December. For those who can, and for those who are still willing to swing their thing on the beach despite the change in seasons then there is, perhaps, no better time to be on the beach. From now through about April/May, depending on the arrival of those warmer southerly winds, the beach will experience a great deal of change, more in some places then in others. All summer long the sand has continued to pile up one heap after the other but now mother nature is slowing gearing up to reclaim a great deal of it. In the months ahead she's going frequently strip the sand from the beach, those deep targets below often becoming exposed, and at least for a short period of time, left unprotected and well within range of your machine. If the fury of the sea gets angry enough some targets will even get cast onto the beach from their underwater haunts. It's usually chilly hunting and sometimes it's down right cold, sometimes even bitter cold, but for many who choose to endure these discomforts it will be worth it, their pockets and pouches often bringing treasure home. It's seldom easy hunting and it's seldom all that much fun, tis the season for the hardiest of the lot and you can bet they're preparing for it, if they're not already prepared, which is far more likely. Now it's just a matter of time, the waiting game, as Mother nature is finally on the move again. :icon_thumright:

Didn't find much today but considering where I was finding a piece of magnetic junk like this in the rain was almost cruel.

I remember my first year right about the same time, november something ,hard wind, cold weather, near freezing point, walking around on the beach for hours with my brother metal detecting when suddenly my fisher f2's display started failing. showed nothing just a a small black line here and there.
Freaked me out as i had only been detecting like 2 months and was afraid it was broken but i guess it was the cold weather xD
anyway found like 4 bottlecaps and some foil.
still have nightmares about this hunt.........
