Landlocked beach lover going to gulf near Panama city
I use my sand shark at the beach, but usually not much in the water
This area is supposed to have lots of shallow/ sandbar hunting
Tips for actual water hunting! Please?

I recall Treasure Hunter showing a pic of a device to steady the coil
Got plastic and need to diy a stabilizer

Suggestions?

Waterproof headphones (or earbuds), a sturdy sand scoop, and neoprene booties with soles makes up my basic kit.
Any other footwear option and the sand becomes uncomfortable and can rub your feet raw. I use ankle-high ones with a velcro strap at the top to eliminate sand penetration.
A heavy duty stainless steel scoop will make recovery a snap and won't lose its value, and the weight is not noticed when in the water.
Hope that helps, good luck!

I’ll be on the beach Saturday
Been checking the live webcams
Maybe it’s cause school isn’t out, but bodies have been scarce so I don’t expect to find the diamond ring I look for
 

First evenings finds
