I'm 2 hours away to the north. All those years I should of been detecting but I was out fishing for bull reds...loads of fun. I did venture to an area to detect while the beach fixer upper was rolling. Found modern day clad, a cheap watch, Bic lighter. Yes, I would check those sugar cane farmers & try to detect those fields. Oh, a cousin (who didn't know any better) ventured into the state park to detect...she was warned.

Have you ever hunted the Houma area?

Well, I got out on the beach for a short hunt. Nice weather but nothing to write home about, just a little clad. Looks like I will be doing more fishing than detecting here. Hope the next stop has more detecting opportunities.

Happy hunting all!

Probably won't get out to detect here again before I leave. There is definitely a chance for something old here. It is just a small area. With time and trying for permissions, you would likely have some luck here.

I will get serious again at our next stop in Kentucky. Nice thing about being from AZ, as I head east, things just keep getting older :icon_thumright:

Happy hunting all!
