Just about ready to give up for the season. all south Florida ocean beaches I detected are almost
completely without targets.
Anyone in south Florida having this problem?

East coast beaches are pretty sanded in where I am. Been waiting around for some erosion.

This year has not been good for me. Have not done nearly as well as last year between the virus and red tide keeping people away and out of the water. But probably also my own fault because I have not been out nearly as much this year either.

WTG my friend - continued good luck
as far relig.medals go - dont think you will find one marked anything but sterling - loop might be marked 925
but as far as i know medals are always marked sterling

East coast is not good right now, except for maybe new drops at good resort beaches. There is no erosion forecasted for the next two weeks. Maybe one day????

January-March better
I wont say where but friends of mine is on south east coast and doing pretty good
they been finding small blow outs here and there and getting tons of coins and some gold
you got to get in with a mask and snorkel and do some walking to find the spots
thats what i do when im down there
just some of my Fla. travels hunts/finds

I was just contemplating making a trip down there next spring. What areas have you scanned?
i normally would have gone down Thanksgiving week - not this year
so might shoot for Fla. in Spring or carrib. island

South Florida covers a lot of beaches on both sides of state, can you be a little
more specific? If you think it is bad down there, try the central Florida beaches on Atlantic side.
