This morning was the first time detecting for me. It was great!!!!! Didn't find anything great but the first clad quarter I found I thought it was pretty great. I found some iron and clad. I was detecting along a beach and noticed that along the water line I was finding iron a lot but when with two paces about water line I was finding coins. Used this trip to get used to my AT Pro and how it works. I found that when using the pointer don't hold the item in the hand with your wedding ring or it will register. I initially thought a rock had metal in it but when I got home and cleaned things up I checked it again and it did not. It was a great time!!! Looking forward to my next trip!

Nice hunt. I always leave my wedding band at home when I detect, for the same reason. Keep hunting and it will just get better as you learn your machine. Happy hunting.

The AT PRO is a great machine. Congrats on your hunt.
The Pro performs flawlessly in fresh water but SALTWATER will make it go a little nuts.

Whole lot of detectors on Clist for sale from people who may never have found anything.

But I'd say your first outing secured your addiction :)
