Hello all.. I'm Danny from South Central Louisiana. I've lived here most of my life besides 6.5 years in the military.
I'm new to the hobby and just bought my first machine, a Simplex. I've wanted to try this for most of my life, but couldn't afford a decent setup.
I'm 51 tears young and look fwd to learning. And hopefully find some interesting relics, coins being a bonus.

We will have to find us a good spot to hunt. I mostly do water hunting, but I have no problem with land hunting.
My Simplex is supposed to be water proof. I'm a coonass like you. Not scared of getting wet.
I'm planning a road trip to New Orleans City Park soon. Before its heat stroke temps and humidity.
I'm sure uts mostly cleaned out by now but something has to be there, somewhere.
I plan on hunting this weekend if you're game. I'd love to give Camp Claiborne a swing.
Are there any parks in Opelousas?

Honestly I never really hunted Opelousas, I live in Lafayette and the few parks I have hit have been clad and trash. Now my brother owns the Steamboat restaurant in Wasington, I have been there but the bayou bank is tough digging, as it is mostly clay. I'm game If you want to go tomorrow or Sunday just give me a call 337-692-4661.

Cajunbear welcome to a very fine forum. There is a lot of civil war actions in your state. You also have a good machine
