I am on the other side of the state I want to road trip over there but time is short.
If I where you I would get some practice in and learn the machine you will be using.
I would travel up and down the river and hunt anything old or the landings, camp sites etc. There is sure to be some one you will hook up with. I ran into my best hunting partner at work. He was into scuba diving and we just started chit chatting about treasure and shared ideas. Talk treasure with every one and some one with a machine in there closet will come out and play.

Agreed Bumpstick,
Have made a few friends by just being out detecting. One guy came up and asked how I was doing a few years back. Showed him a few wheats and a Indianhead. He went on to explain to me the years they were made and what was before and followed. Turned out he studied coins to help put himself through college and metal detected for enjoyment also. If I have any questions about any coins now he's just a phone call away. It's great that most like to join in and great hobby to enjoy with others.
HH and Good Luck!
PS. I'm in the southern part of the state but will keep in touch if can find time for a road trip!!

hello , I have not tried around here , I always take big trips west , I have 80 acres in California , but I live in Wisconsin dells , when I use my detector its to find loud dirt that I will feed through my trommel or highbanker , I'm looking for placer gold though , not coins or relics , but I don't have anyone to play with either , sometimes I talk to the rocks , lol
