Got A Couple Of Rings Today Doing A Freshwater Lake Hunt

[John-Edmonton]

It finally warmed up to 23 C / 74 F today, so, having a day off, I headed to a lake and used my wet suit for the very first time this year. It was still a little cool in the water, especially with strong gusty winds. I did luck out on a couple of rings and some coins. I only dug one bottle cap today. That's got to be a record. It just goes to show you how hunted out this lake is.

Great recovery John. I have plans to do some field hunting this weekend before they are all planted to find old relics then I'll turn to the rivers and public places for the rings. I find most of my rings at fairgrounds and park.

Good luck at the rivers. How's your son making out metal detecting?

He's doing good. We have hit fields around our house looking for relics and arrow heads. He found some nice points and a wheat last week. I don't take him on longer outings he loses interest fast. He just turned 6 so when he wants to go we go around close. Thanks for asking John.
