fisher2 said:is the excal still considered one of the best underwater detectors?
fisher2 said:also how deep do those things search in water
stevemc said:Excals are good. When you mean deep do you mean how deep can you dive with it, or how deep will it search while underwater? If the last one, it wont search down as deep as a PI of equal coil size, of course. It will search and not see iron, which is good.

Sorry! I disagree! I hunt with three crusty old vets that crush it with their PI's! However the rookie with the Excal (me) constantly shut their traps. When Excal is in all metal it's as good if not better than SM PI!!! Been there, done it!
stevemc said:Oh, I agree, I only use PIs, and the guys that have excals, never dig iron. And they get gold. I have to dig everything. A wot coil is the way to go too. It will still find a ring and go much deeper and wider than either stock coil. If I had the money it would be my beach tool of choice. Excal with a WOT coil.

I used to use a PI machine. My excal has outdone it everytime. I also installed a WOT coil and removed it within a week. It might have more coverage but it did not even come close to matching the depth my standard ten does in all metal mode.
