Would like to find someone to MD with

I live in Kport and work in Greeneville. I am new to the hobby. I have a Tesoro Compadre my wife got me for Xmas a couple of years back. Would like to get some use out of it. Might be able to score some old home places in Greene County. Not sure of any other sites, but would be willing to go anywhere within reason. I am off on Fridays and Saturdays. Let me know if you would like to go sometime.

peeboo, when you get back, definitely visit Treasure Hunting Outfitters in JC (near the mall). They have a new md club that sounds very active and heading in the right direction.

Fairbanks. Just saw that. That's gonna be different for sure.
I worked oil industry in the 80s and made dozens of trips to Anchorage and points north all the way to Prudhoe and ANWR (and even a tad further). Always took all my vacation at the end of those company trips. Absolutely LOVED Alaska. I am ruined for life because of Alaska fishing. Nothing here comes close and the only reason I go fishing anymore is the companionship with friends. The fishing down here just cant cut it. Still toying with the idea of moving up there and spending the rest of my life playing in the woods.

I wouldn't imagine that the detecting is all that great up there even when the ground isn't frozen. You do any good while you were there?

A small few of us in Fairbanks. I know one guy who gets nice rings all the time but he goes out constantly even when it's 20 below.

I'm sure the fishing is absolutely amazing. My husband brought home some awesome salmon from dip net fishing. The salmon lasted us about a year and no salmon is ever tasted as good.
