Ice Skating, Ice Fishing & Metal Detecting……..
All in one it seemed this past Saturday. LI Tom and I headed towards the Bronx in search of a little silver and the conditions were less than ideal. I found myself doing some funky acrobatics while trying to stay on my feet as opposed to my back. The coils were gliding nice and smooth over the layer of ice that had formed. And to cut a plug, I found myself cutting out a circle of ice before proceeding to dig. Reminded me of what ice fishing could be like. Things got off to an early start with a small silver ring for me and then a Rosie that was a bit on the deeper side for this park. LI TOM had suffered a silver drought but I was confident in his talent with the M6 and the location we were in. I wanted Tom to believe in this cold and frozen place I had dragged him to and asked him to “Have faith Tom!”. Tom came through with a nice merc. Recovering targets was a huge chore and we could’ve done better on a better day………….but we were both happy campers with those little silver rewards for our effort. Once again Tom, good times and a good hunt. Photos enclosed as usual.
