tried a new spot for my 4th freshwater hunt with my AT Pro.
2nd scoop was the 14k bracelet. Also managed a silver ring marked 'sterling'. First silver ring I found not marked with .925. The earring in the bracelet looks really old and may have a gold part (the part that goes in the ear) as it is not corroded at all.


4/4 water hunts have produced silver or gold. 3/4 have had just gold and half have had both metals. Knock on wood, hopefully it continues! :thumb_up:

Thanks!

I have 2 bracelets and one chain so far after a bit more than a month. Even on max sensitivity, I do not get much depth on them, but more than an E-trac and Ace 250 (what the two people I usually hunt with use and when I find something I usually throw it down and we all see how it registers).

Makes it worth scooping and digging all the foil!

Thanks all

Nice gold streak! What do those chains and bracelets read as?

I want to say it was bouncing between 37-40. It was only about 1/2 an inch deep... good thing because it is hard to get much distance on a bracelet.

In the water (and dry sand at the ocean) I dig every signal over 36 on the AT Pro. For comparison, the chart shows iron and foil over lapping at 30-40. I have a 14k little hoop earring that was about the same signal. ALWAYS worth it to dig the little foil signals! :)
