Beach Technique question.
This has happened to me a couple of times now and I was curious if Iām wrong or if this is just another style.
Iām detecting a section of beach and another or group of hunters catch and quickly over take me than are gone. Last Thursday a group of three over took me so fast, man I didnāt even see them coming. It was like I had a wrecked car in a NASCAR race, they caught me, passed me and left me in the dust two laps down.
I usually select a section about a hundred yards long starting just above the wet sand, the Ace 250 doesnāt like wet sand, walk one pass than turn and move up about three or four feet and come back. I keep doing this until Iām against the dunes or run out of light.
The others Iāve seen seem to just pick a line and go, very fast. Some times we stop and talk a bit others we just wave and one guy... well guess he didnāt like my yellow machine, Ha ha. Funny thing about this guy is I was heading south against the dunes and he was coming north in the same line. After we passed, I moved over, he turned and went south just above the high tide line so I figured Iād finish my line by the dunes even though he had already hunted there. I found a penny about ten inches down.
