The wife tells me this morning that her friend's husband lost his go pro camera while kayaking in a local creek. She says you have to go metal detecting to look for it. I replied yes mam! The area it was lost in is very hard to access. I nearly stepped on a huge rat snake and fell into a deep hole up to my neck in water. Once I finally got to the 100 yard stretch he thought he lost it in. I found it in a really shaded area in about 3 feet water depth with my AT Pro in about 3 minutes of searching. I wasn't finding much in that area so I quickly returned the camera to him. He was very appreciative and thanked me multiple times. I decided to hit another area since I was already out and drenched and found a tomahawk? and a dagger. I have no idea how old these items are. I know the area I was hitting goes back to the 1740's. I also put a pic from a hunt a few days ago where I found a flat button, roundball, pocket watch, india pot metal thing, and some clad. Sorry for the poor pics I only have a camera on my phone.

Thank You. I definitely believe in Karma. I haven't been finding much this summer and I was only out for about 2 hours and found the tomahawk and the dagger this afternoon.

Nice finds. I doubt tomahawk would be correct, but a variety of broadaxe.
