The weather has been great and the schools are closed for the holidays that means hunt till you drop :laughing7: . My son Carson and I have been hunting many different schools over the past two days and today we had some great finds :thumbsup: . Carson started it off with a +84 vdi on the M6 at 5 inches deep . It was a cool looking sterling pendent that looks like it might be from India . He was one happy hunter :headbang: . Then about 30 minutes later I had a sweet +12 vdi on my MXT PRO at 3 inches , GOLD ! It is a 14K Asian pendent that weighs 3.6 grams :thumbsup: . After that is was all clad , $10.99 for myself . Carson didn't find much :BangHead: .
Yesterday , Friday , I found a tiny silver soccer ball charm and two wheats , 1952D & 1956D . Carson found only clad , $3.98 . I found $15.16 in clad . We will be out again tomorrow and try for the good stuff again :icon_thumright: .

Oh man, those are great finds! Not just the fact that you managed to find something but the fact that they're really pretty too. So cool that you get to go around with your son and he's so into it. Can't deny that this is an exciting hobby :)

Awesome finds pl8man and Carson! It's great that you and your son got to hunt together!
The schools here in North Orange County are also locked tighter than a drum.

I guess we are luck here in the Bay Area . Almost all schools are open , only a few are locked up in bad areas .
