Well haven't posted in a while, after the rough storm season we had this spring the lake lever went up 2 feet, that brought a halt to my finding much. As bad as the 100 plus days here are it has been dropping the water level about an inch and a half a day, and now its getting where I can get to the better finds again. Anyway I got out around 7am sunday morning, I headed to a spot along the shoreline where I knew there is a lot of hard clay bottom, after about three hours of digging a full pocket of pulltabs and one junk ring I got a signal in a recess in the clay. It was filled with rocks in about 3 inches of water so I started removing the rocks expecting to find anouther pulltab. As you can see from the pics it was quite a surprise, finally found a large diamond. I took it to a jeweler friend today, it's a 1 carat old mine cut diamond mounted in platinum. Jeweler buddy offered $1500 for it
