    Wet Cold Muddy Silver

    Finally have time to post yesterday's(Tuesday) finds. L4S and I visited one of our old spots for a 4 hour hunt. It started off cold and miserable, but at least the rain was holding back. About an 1.5 into the hunt the rain picked up and before I knew it, I had 2 lbs. of mud on my shovel, 5 lbs. on each boot, and I couldn't find the button on my pin pointer. With all that said, I think I found my new favorite hunting conditions. 8) First silver came as the rain started, and the last silver was on the way out. Enjoy the pics, guys.

    You know I get scared east of Route 59. Too many people! It's all hunted out! The sky is falling!

    Keeping it lakeside at Lac Du Batts, where the rust runs deep...
