I got out early this morning to hit low tide. I was working in water about waist deep and had covered about 4 or 5 hundred yards. Nothing great, junk, lead weights and a few dollars in coins when I got an odd signal. I use a PI and most everything sounds the same but this signal was different. I dug with the scoop, target is still there. I dug again same. This went on for a while and finally after the last scoop the signal was gone so i pull up the scoop to shake it out and right on top is a large round copper container of some sort. It was pretty crusty and I could tell there was something inside. I decided to head for shore so when I opened it nothing fell in the water. As I headed in I noticed by this time I had a crowd. As I got in to the beach, two couples come to see what I found. I showed them and proceeded to try to open my treasure. I twisted and pulled but it was really stuck. I even let one of the guys on the beach give it a try with no luck. I beat it of the scoop a few times and gave it one last rip. It was then that I realized my treasure was actually and ashtray. A nice pile of sludge that consisted of saltwater and old broken down cigs sprayed all over my face. I quit smoking about 10 years ago and really hate the smell now, I was pretty ticked off. I decided right there to call it a day before anything worse happend. So if you didn't find any gold today, don't feel bad, you could have had a day like mine
