I'd rather make plugs.....not war!

Amen to that!, this beach huntings not for me, ive been out 3 times since I got here for about 3 hrs total and found a little bling and about 5 bucks so far. Tough walking in the sand but easy "digging" for the goods..

Are you at least trying where the water meets the sand? Tough hunting, but things are in constant change there.

I feel you on the answering questions end. The past couple days at a local park I have ended up teaching and impressing a total of about 15 kids including some from YMCA. Whenever I got a good signal they would dig with my lesche and then use my pinpointer to try and find it! Needless to say after about 3-4 hours total I did not find very much and could hardly walk around since I was surrounded lol. Then when I did find something they ask wanted to keep the treasure!

Yeah I did, just not feeling it.
I don't like walking for 300 yds w one or two signals
Plus the chatter is frustrating.

I think I'll stick to my good Ole dirt digs

Hope you and the family are having fun. I just went by the farm where you found the knee buckle and they have cut the wheat and are baling straw in a field that I think is on their property. Gonna go out tomorrow morning and see if I can detect it before they plant something else there. Will let you know how it goes.

It's 2 fields over toward that "IH" garden, lol and on the same side of the road as their house. We had a rainstorm today, so they had stopped baling and left the tractor in the field till the straw can dry out. Pretty sure it is part of their farm. Will see tomorrow.
