- Metal Detecting
Went out yesterday and had a great day... I lost myself out in the desert doing what I love (dirt fishing). I picked up the hobby last July and have upgraded from a cheap Radio Shack Discovery 2 tone only metal detector to a Delta 4000 and now a T2 ES LTD. This hobby is definitely a stress reliever! I almost did not go after my buddy had a misfortune and my son was called in to work, but my two pups didn't let me down. Went out there and as before within 20 min I get a hit "bang!" A 1904 Liberty nickel! Never fails that I find one close to a trail and fire pit. From there on it was bite after bite! I'm still dumbfounded why I cant find an old dime, quarter, half dollar or dollar coin. It's like fishing in a lake knowing there more species of fish but you keep catching catfish or I'm my case Largemouth Bass. I know there has to be a perch, trout or walleye out there lol. I did find a carp (2007 zinc) on top staring back at me. I had to trough it back thou. I did find a few blue gill in beautiful condition (Indian heads). Maybe next time I'll find my ever eluding fish!
Need help identifying this iron relic...
