Greetings all, I'm new to the hobby. I recently bought a Tesoro Cibola, headphones, and a sand scoop. I'm looking for some suitable digging tools locally.

I cant see taking TOO much stuff with me. Detector, headphones, digging blade/tool, maybe a folding shovel, throw cloth, a few papertowels and zip lock baggies, trash bag... I'm sure I've missed some items :)

Dont know what the best bang for your buck carry method might be. I'm wondering how some of you carry your gear when you're out and about. Tool belts? Fishing/photography vests?

I have a belt too and I use it when I'm in the woods and there are a lot of branches for things to get tangled in.
But most of the time I use a five gallon bucket, over time Ive modified it to hold my digging tool and probe.
It also has a small plastic cup that I put the coins and small finds in. I put the bigger finds and trash right in the
bucket and I also have a towel, insect repellent, root cutters and a small zippered pouch with some extra stuff like
spare batteries in there. I am a bit over weight and the bucket is nice to lean on when I'm getting to a standing
position.
