Definately a great group of experienced and known names you got to hunt with! I've watched many of the videos they've put out, in fact I credit Aquachiggers videos as the factor that finally got me to buy my 1st detector! Didn't get one until I retired, although Ive been interested in it since the late 70's! Now I kick myself for not getting into the hobby years ago when the silver was plentiful!! Congrats on a great hunt for a good cause!
