Great video Max. It brought back memories of using a sifter and the fun of pushing the shells around and the stones while looking for the goods. Another good method to keep in mind for newbies.

Love your videos! Nice ring. Do you wear wet suit or dry suit and what is on your feet?

I like that scoop and I see you favor a floating sifter box too. I've used one for 30 years of water hunting. Couldn't hunt where you hunt, too rocky for someone who has little sensation in his feet, I'd be falling down at every step. Nice ring too. :headbang: :coffee2:

I've gotta make me one of those sifters , I hunt a boat ramp that has lots of shell and rock and hate having to sift through my scoop trying to find my target.. The sifter would make that 100% quicker ! Nice ring ! :icon_thumleft:
