What setting did you use for the plane? All metal mode or did you discriminate out cars?(JK!!)

BTW a few weeks back I was detecting in a small VA county near me and found a car more than a mile from any road. Tires rotted off, rusty as all get out just sitting in a bunch of new growth woods.

The things some people will lose track of. :D

I guess that it all depends on your defination of a "TH'er" vs a "Coin Shooter" !
Someone, some day, should sit down and define what the differences between..
Treasure Hunter( HT'er) , Coin Shooter, Nuggetshooter, Electronic Prospector, etc ... ARE!
Me!
When I am back in the wilderness, I am not looking ::) for a coin or two, or, even, a bag/stash of coins!
I am ( having already researched the location!) looking for a ;) Spanish Mine Tunnel * , 400' Long filled with silver bars, and a side room of Church Artifacts!
;D That is located along the Southern Az. Border ... Or! So! ;)
So!
As you can see, 8) A MD wouldn't be much help!
" YOUR! snub nose .44 mag! :-\ Don't leave home w/o it! " ;)

BOY!
Don't I wish ! ::)
This canyon/tunnel, which is an Old Spanish mine tunnel, is about 2 1/2 miles north of where I believe that! canyon/tunnel is !
In this canyon, I came across 6 open, Spanish Mine Tunnels and three more that are still covered over!
::) Where something maybe hidden ? ::)
The Spanish didn't have to worry about The EPA >:( back in those days,
SO! Why would they take the time/effort to coverup/hide them , if there's nothing in them ?
Got a shovel ;) and some time? ::)
Plus!
At the head of this Canyon, where there is a trail & "Pass" going over the top, there is a Spanish Mine!
I didn't make it up there...
A Storm! Came over the top and chased me'n Roads back to camp! :P
But!
In regards to the "Silver Cache" tunnel,...
I'll know this Spring? ;)
??? Care to join up with the group ? :)
In this country, ;D I can always use another GUN! ;D
;) What are you 'a packin' ? ;D

Maybe when I get out of debt in about 100 years. ;D

Guess what?
I got out of debt in ONE DAY!
On a small island in Florida! ;)
My wife and I packed up and moved to New Mexico!
Point:
You won't beable to share in that Cache of silver bars & Church artifacts, being
there in Ol Kentucky!
AND!
I have just recently, let's say, ;) found some more money, just laying around! ::)
Not!
A big hit, about $40k !
It is being "converted" as we speak!
I should have a check in about 4 weeks!

Las Vegas Bob:
Nope!
They are different...
One, Bigfoot, is in the NW Part of the U.S. !
The other, "silver tunnel/cache" is in the Southern Most Part of Arizona!
My point, although, hardy made ! :-\
Was that I don't consider "coin shooting" as "Treasure Hunting" !
(But! See the full explaination below)
Although, "One man's Treasure may not be other man's Treasure!
I concentrate mostly on Hidden rather than lost !
"Spanish" rather than "Modern"
"Cache" rather than "Stashed/lost"
But!
Even those words can be used to describe both ....
Treasure = Spanish gold/silver caches/mines
Treasure = Early/modern gold/silver/clad coins
So!
I'd say...I hunt for large (& small!) Spanish caches, lost Mines and legends of the Unusal ...
"Thingys" that you can't pick up & put in your pocket!
BUT! :)
To answer your Question....

I have FOUND Treasure(s) !
I have PAID OFF all of my bills, land(s) cars, etc...
I am able to quit working! ;D

Go! When and Where I want...
Isn't this why people are here on this Forum!
Hoping to do JUST! this?
Yet!
I get comments such as yours!
Why!
Because I was "lucky" once!
And thru research, two more times !
I am waiting for a check right now (from my buyer!) ...should be around 40K !
Not! The Big One!
But! It's a nice sum!
Should I give it back ? ::)
I sure don't want to make anyone else ....angry...mad... or, Jealous!
Why are you TH'ing if not to find a few dollars ?
I have offered to you a chance to go along...
Haven't I ? ???
Well! If NOT!
I will be out this year from around March until, I HIT!
OR!
Until! The Winter Snows chase me/us out of the mnts!
You name the time, I'll let you know where I am!

ANGRY? MAD? JEALOUS???? ???

NO ONE said anything about that bill ol buddy.................. ;D ;D

I was just saying that I do not meet or come near any of the criteria that you demand of anyone that might want to hunt with you.

I am refferring to the THREE EEE'S for instance, that you mention is needed in one of your planned hunts. :'(

Or the size of the gun needed in another.

Your the man bill. ;)

I pale to you and I concide that fact.......... :-*

CptBill I would love to go along for the hunt. I already ran into the big critter once, I would be a lot more interested in looking for those misplaced spanish sites you like so much.

If I had one good find I would be in the wilderness looking for more and love it! I just need a little tiny break financially.

Come On Guys!
I have hundreds, ::) well! maybe not "hundreds" 8)
But! I do have a bunch on "Posts" all over this "Forum!"
Inviting People to go out on a two week trip, and LOOK! ..... NOT! Shoot ! ... For "Bigfoot"!
And!
I am STILL waiting for some one to actually send me an actual, serious acceptance!
From my "researcher's" latest reports, I think that east of the Seattle (sp?) River in Ore. would be a real hot spot!
As well as two locations in NO. CA.
Anyone heard any NEW! reports lately ?

If you'll send me a "Topo map" or " Nav. Chart" , showing the top part of Tampa Bay ,
I'll put an "x" on the exact spot!
Of & On The Florida Island
The hole you'll find, if still there, is about 3' and circular & about 2 1/2 feet deep!
It, the hole, is located, DIRECTLY under an pretty good size, Oak Tree branch, that is bend up, on an exact, 90* angle! :D
The dirt from the hole is piled up on the bayside of the hole!
The tree is about 25 yds. in from the water!
This island, a small one, is/was known to have Pirates camped on it!
Why!
Because the owner of the nearby, mansion, was a friend ! :o
Now! From that information, you should beable to TELL ME!
The Mansion Owner's & Island's name ? ???
Email me for my mailing address! + send Return Postage !
I may!
Convert the $40k into 100's and lay them all out and take a photo of them!
BUT!
I have learned. that people, as long as it doesn't cost them anything, will keep on "bugging",
Because they have nothing to lose!
I have a solution for that...As the above requesting "Return Postage"
Do you see any reason that
AND! I see no reason, for me to have to pay, everytime, to prove that I am honest !

I've lived here in Oregon my whole life, not counting the few years in Vegas, and I don't think there is a Seattle river in this state, but I could be wrong. Were you thinking the Siletz or maybe the Siuslaw?

You have been a member here since the beginning of? 2003.
and passably longer, IF you were on the old forum also.

? ? ? ? ? ? ?PERSONALLY.

? ? ? All the Questioning everyones Honesty Lately on the Forum is getting VERY Tiring.

? ? ? ?as for Photos, I Don't think anyone should post a Picture on the forum, of anything

? That Certain Officials, May come after.

? Especially since we already know how certain officials act.

? ? ?HAPPY HUNTING BILL

? Jeff

"Extraordinary claims demand extraordinary proof"

I do not think anyone is questioning ?honesty? here. However, if the good ?Captain? thinks an empty hole will validate his creditability, I will be more than happy to motor over to this particular Island and snap a picture of the empty hole.

Personally, I hope the hole was filled back in, as that is how ?Treasure Hunters? get a bad reputation in the first place.

AND THE DOUBLE TALK, to try and get around my Opinion, IS Getting EVEN MORE TIRING !


AND IN MY OPINION ;

Extraordinary claims from MEMBERS demand RESPECT !

An Obvious Phrase of disbelief


The above Isn't a Suggestion, that he NEEDS to Prove it ?




? ?MY OPINION? STANDS;

? ? ? ? ?Extraordinary claims from? MEMBERS demand RESPECT !


IF he wishes to.? Fine.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? HOWEVER,
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?IF this hole STILL Exists or NOT,
? ? ? ? ? ?NO ACCUSATIONS against ANY TreasureNet Members.

DIRECT, Or in a Suggestive round about way.


YOU REMOVE THAT PHRASE Yourself, I will believe you meant NO Disrespect & Remove everything Below it? ;)
