Night detecting... Insane

[Dadhumanizer]

Love night detecting. Waves come at you out of nowhere, just gray masses that form in the darkness. Stars are intense and speckle the sky like overspray. No one else there to answer questions for. So relaxing...

Night digging, never done it, never will.

I agree with Smokey.

Absolutely the best time to hunt saltwater. No crowds and as said before, night sky is a humbling experience. I also like night time kayak fishing for the same reasons.

I only hunt beaches after 10 when I get up, till almost sundown

I dont mind all the ladies following me, I feel safe

Night detecting in lakes can be fun as well. Especially when one needs to overcome several fears like getting caught lol.

Some of the more crowded beaches in Delaware are lit up at night by the lights from the boardwalks, so that's fairly safe. I don't see me getting in the water much past the knees at night. Almost drowned once going for a moonlight swim as a teenager (back in the pre-"Jaws" days) and getting into a rip current. One of those experiences is quite enough!

Sounds perfect!

The one advantage to hunting beaches in the evening as opposed to morning is...

You have more chance of finding something that was dropped that day.

I don't go in the water. So day or night, it doesn't matter so much to me. Crowds? I ain't scared no crowd...

Night detecting in the water separates the Boys from the Men!
"Boy, get your butt over here."
Sorry, the wife is calling.
Gotta go...

I detect every night. Sometimes I find treasure, but usually she says go to sleep.

I do almost all my beach detecting at night. Less crowds and questions, can go for longer without getting burnt, no navigating around people and their stuff, it's like meditation for me being able to tune out and do my thing. Come home and sleep like a baby.
