So, I've done loads of detecting with my Xterra 705 here in Colorado, doing coin shooting, relics, jewelry recoveries, property marker locates,etc in all kinds of soil. Only thing I haven't succeeded at yet is gold prospecting, but I also haven't spent a ton of time on that either. It's looking like I might get to take a trip to Florida around Thanksgiving, so I'm trying to brush up and prepare for the new environment. I'm re-reading my manual and "understanding your xterra" as we speak, but and advice (general or machine specific) would be great. This will be my first salt water/ REAL beach hunt (I've done a few fresh water swim beaches here).
The only water-proof coils I currently have are 3kHz concentric 9", 7.5kHz concentric 9" and 18.75kHz DD 15". Are one of these a good option, or should I use this as an excuse to get a new coil? Or should I just stay out of the water and bring something else?
Any suggestions for the area around Vero Beach and Orland (or anyone wanting to get together) would be great as well.
