I have a pretty good handle on relic hunting with the 600. I’ll be beach hunting for the first time with the 600 later this month in the Outer Banks, NC.
My last detector did quite well in the dry sand, but not so much in the wet. I plan on going no further than a couple feet deep in the ocean if I get a couple calm days, maybe out to a couple sand bars at low tide, but most likely wet/dry sand hunting.
Any tips for maximizing results at the beach?
What kind of depth should I expect in dry, wet sand, in the water? Can I / should I crank sensitivity? There are usually only small occasional patches of black sand at my favorite beach.
Many thanks!
