I wear the Garrett bag with the belt, but I put my Lesch tool on my real leather belt and wear my pin pointer like a Texas jock strap holster most of the time so I don’t have to look behind me to find it, however, I am getting a heavy duty canvas back pack for Christmas for the rest of the s*** I find necessary to haul out there like batteries, a wide selection of coils, gloves, water, wireless head phones, granola bars, tooth brush, clean towel or 2, back up ball cap, medication (keeps the voices out of my headphones)uh, that’s about it. But next year I plan on carrying a heavy duty haversack type bag with a shoulder sling (man purse?) for sharp can slaw and other busted up crap I’ll haul out and throw away.

I can't believe you guys use those little finds bags! I fill my big pouch with junk in less than an hour! Where do you guys put your junk?

I also use this the Relic Elite pouch. It is bigger than my Coin Elite bag I posted pic's of above. It is quite a bit bigger. It really depends on where I am hunting.

All The Best,
Bill G

I take a 5 gallon bucket for the trash if I am in the field or woods. Most other places I hunt have trash cans around or my vehicle is close enough to unload as often as necessary.

I like the Park Ranger bag I bought from Freeloader on TNET. I carry everything I need in it.Garrett pinpointer Lesch digging tool, couple of empty pill bottles all fit in the pouch. I wear it on a tool belt with a Lesch shovel hanger.

If I'm using my 17' I transfer it all to the Pro Swing belt.

Minelab vest for phone, small loop, cleaning cloth and special finds. The vest has many different size zippered pockets so when I’m in the water nothing falls out and everything keeps dry. Pouch for trash, seperate pinpoint holder, and seperate sheath for knife or digger.

I use all three (belts/pouches/vests), but does depend on where I'm hunting. Open farm fields, just a Garrett pouch(s). In play areas a belt with my digger on it and a few other things, plus a Garrett pouch. When I'm working an area for a client, I include the vest that can carry all of my documentation tools (pens, GPS, tape measure...etc.). :icon_thumleft:

This is my setup...bought my Buzz Wilson digger scabbard many years ago and its gonna outlast me for sure. Same goes for my electrician finds bag. Think it’s thick enough to stop a .357 lol

I use freeloaders pack mule. It is the only pouch that has held up to my relic hunting so far.

I've looked for a minelab vest, but I think they have discontinued them.

"What if it's not just another pull tab?" - Lance (I have asked myself that a million times it seems)

“Fancy some lemonade Lance?” - Sheila (I don't think Sheila knew the concept of adding sugar to her lemonade).

Congrats to you on your CW finds. Just starting to look for CW relics north and northwest of Atlanta.
