Found my first box plate today

[LaGold]

We made about an 8 hour hunt today. It was some real rough digging but it was well worth it to me. I'm gonna have to send out a big thanks to diggindeepsouthla and Kshollywood for this one. After finding a few small keepers and being about ready to pass out from the heat and diggin in what was like concrete we decided to hit the edge of the woods a little and when I came up on my first signal it seemed to be a bullet. After digging it to my surprise it was my first box plate. Wow I screamed out like a little girl. I will post the full video ASAP. Got the entire thing on video. Even before the shovel ever hit the ground. I'm sure you will get a good laugh from my excitement so be sure to check back later for the video. Thanks for looking. It was an awesome feeling seeing that thing come out of the ground.
