    Fall metal detecting.


    Does anyone else prefer fall metal detecting? I love it, the cool air, the colorful leaves, the moist easy to dig ground. Just put on a hooded sweatshirt and your set...not too hot or cold....nothing better folks.
    Why do they call it "Taking a dump" when you're actually leaving one?

    Re: Fall metal detecting.

    Yeah, it is great. Fall and Spring are my two favorite seasons. The only problem I have is with the hunters. My site is on a public hunting ground. Bow season started today. I'll be wearing blaze orange for the rest of the season. Fortunately I'm pretty well out in the open.

    Re: Fall metal detecting.

    Yep, I love fall and it's cooler temps and changing colors, now if we would only get some decent rain so we could dig the targets. Rain to the north of us and to the south of us, but here in central Illinois all we have is super hard ground and dust. Rick

    fall is nice to detect, but right now it's 80 degrees, so the hooded sweatshirt is going to have to wait a while

    Re: Fall metal detecting.

    I mainly CW relic hunt, and as a woods hunter, the fall and winter is the only time I can get out. Too many critters and too much vegetation any other time of the year. Come on Fall!!!

    Yes fall and spring is my best time to land detect. When it gets hot and the ground get hard I switch to beach and water detecting. It is getting to be a great time to land detect.....Matt

    Re: Fall metal detecting.

    It's definately my time. Early spring and early fall are the only slow times at work, sometimes....but health wise, the cooler temps definately invigorate me.

    Re: Fall metal detecting.

    Fall and even winter, I love when the weeds die, the humidity goes away, and the Mosquitos go back to the hell they came from. I've even hunted when it was 13 degrees outside and dropped to 8.

    Yea,we cant until the rains come....ground is way too hard and the chance of ruining a good find chipping dirt is not worth it!!
