I guess it would get on a mans nerves. Seldom had it happen but I don't hunt in town very often. Lots of kids come to see what you are finding and can get on your nerves even if you love kids. .....Guess it is a simple as you can't fix stupid. Let them show their :censored: and hunt on. Some silly laws say you fire shots in their direction or even bust em in the head with your digger. ....Go figure.:angry5:

Look... I already know that you are younger than most here, so here's my advise (Please read disclaimer below too:icon_thumright:)

Be confrontational, man up young buck... Ask in a loud and threatening voice... Do you know who I am!!!!!!

When they say no....

You say... Good, let's keep it that way

Then you could either flip the bird, or egg them and run like the wind :laughing7:

Well only put up with one person, same person I figured would be out at this time. Honking and waving in the smart alac way, didn't even pay attention. Dug $8.76 in clad. Going out again later to a few different spots, than i'll post finds for this weekend. Dug my first silver, and some other cool things.

I was hunting a park when 4 pre 10's came towards me started giggling to themselves.
A few days later at the same place, they returned. One walks in front of me and launches about 20 pennies. Seems to have really tickled the other 3! Such a moment that was.
Told them all to go hit their moms purse for quarters, and come back.

just make it look like you found some than good, up here they catch Yaa in the middle of the road extracting copper, they given you that apostolic stare as they drive by, leave you feeling like an uneducated bum.Na! just kidding about the bum part.
 

Just wear headphones and ignore them....
 

The time your wasting on looking and dealingwith them is time lost hunting so forget them and keep swingin and diggin.
 

When I started searching beaches in Milford Connecticut many years ago, I was one of the very few with a detector, and stupid people in cars asking in I was searching for gold mines. I did not response.
 

I put on a white helmet and an Orange Vest and say “Please evacuate the area, I am with the Gas Company.”
