Hey guys!

Although I haven't posted in a while, rest assured that I am sneaking in when time permits to check out all my fellow pirates loot. Unfortunately with busy life stuff I haven't been able to get out as much as I would like to.

My neighbor saw my ring collection and we will just say, he is a little excited about the hobby. So we planned a time and place the other day to hit a swim area that I have not searched yet. It was a little bit of a drive, but I wanted to put him in the best possible location I could for a gold ring. After a little bit of refreshing on the teaching the night before, off he went. After a quick zig zag out to the deep, I realized this area had been hunted quite a bit. Begrudgingly, I began my usual pattern with very little targets. Then about 10 minutes into the hunt this baby was laying in the scoop. I was happy, don't get me wrong but I would have rather that my neighbor had found it because then I know he would be hooked for life. I actually was tempted to throw it behind him while he wasn't paying attention, but quickly thought that wouldn't be right. Anyhow, I hope you all are doing well. Have fun and happy hunting!

That's a nice save!! And good to see you posting again!!

One warning from experience, it's nice to share in the hobby but I did several years ago and the same people are now my competition. When you share a good spot with someone and they come back around and Hammer it without you,........kind of leaves a bitter taste. Choice wisely... :skullflag:
