What I've really come to HATE!

This is what I've really come to hate!


You're in the water, say belly deep, and you just hit that “perfect” tone, that “perfect quack” that leaves no doubt in your mind that you've just scored a ring, a nice dense ring! Already the images are floating about in your head. “No doubt. THIS IS A DENSE RING!” And so you scoop it up, raise the scoop from the water, watch the sand clear out, and there it is, “Tungsten!” :BangHead: These things have got to be the newest junk on the beach. Pieces of crap are showing up everywhere! Are they breeding? :laughing7:

It's an epidemic! It should be a crime to sell those things for what they do as well.

They are heavy, so that makes them come off the finger easy...becoming very popular...pricey with no resale or scrap value.

The dreaded grey ring plague is everywhere.
I think that when people lose them they don't even
bother trying to find them because they are so cheap
to replace.
