Hi :hello:

Got out for 1 1/2 hrs. today to chase the high tide down the slope; it was high noon with a very hot sun directly overhead, but couldn't get there at any other time.:blackbeard:

Just had my Gray Ghosts repaired by my bro' down in Fla.( Thanks, Raymond)... so I was anxious to try them out; they paid off with a pretty , delicate 14 K bracelet( or ? anklet)...maybe a child's .:dontknow:


It was not deep..about 5"; the GT gave off a mid-tone...kinda muted "crackling"...thought it was some type of aluminum until I saw it sparking in the scoop.

It is small, but I'll take it after this latest long drought.:thumbsup:

Good luck out there

Thanks for looking at the pics

Ya know, that sure looks like one of my fishing weights. I lost it on the beach during a ...

Naaa. You can keep it. Just put it away in a special place.

The other stuff is okay too...

Great hunt!

Beautiful gold find...congrats on breaking the drought...gold rings are nice but I really like finding different kinds of gold items like bracelets, chains, earrings etc. because you just don't see those very often...congrats again. :icon_thumright:

Nice recovery on the 14K, Lorraine. Wish I could do some dirt fishing, but glad my friends are out finding gold and just dirt fishing.
