Trifecta gold !! 10k 14k 18k !!

[Blak bart]

Well when the price of gold is skyrocketing......well even a die hard spanish treasure hunter will take a break from that and go and hit some swim holes for the heavy metals !! Woooo hooo !! I forgot how fun it was to go for the gold drops !! 32 grams... not a bad days work....or hookie from work lol. Cost me a little driving gas and 4 hard boiled eggs and 2 peach teas !! Gotta love the low overhead. Had a wierd thing happen on the way in....as I started to paddle....it felt like i was going along pretty good !! The first boat i passed says " what the hell man...you got a hidden motor in there". The next guy says "dude your almost on plane". I dont know how I was doing it but the combination of wind waves and current + a new paddle had me at aw inspiring speeds with very little effort....at least 5 or 6 kts. A record for me in a kyak it was a quick ride in.
Got a 10k white and yellow gold band first fanning around in the sand. after an hour or so I got a heavy 18k white and yellow gold band !! I was happy with that but I had only been in the water for a couple hours so it was back in for my 3rd gold !! At this point I'm dragging 4 kids along behind.....all eager to dig and find treasure...they have seen the 2 gold rings on my finger and are just waiting for the next one !! Bottle cap...penny....bottle cap....now they all have masks and are watching and helping some, and there it is in the clean white sand as I fan GOLD TREASURE !! Lol...one of them looks at me with his little freckled face and says....you be making money.....lol !! I said yes I am and then passed it all around for them to see and feel !!
I high fived those kids and packed up and left in the yak after a hard boiled egg and a peach tea.....ahhhhhh so sweet !!

There was a nice guy from miami who had a pi machine and he said he got a ring on last friday...he was cool... a nice guy with his wife. Another boat gave me a hot dog and checked out the gold !! All in all....a great day at a great office !!

Those are nice Bart

Hard to believe people don't take off their jewelry before partying on the water. Their loss is your gain, ( Obviously ). Well done Bart.

Simon thank you my friend....each ring I find there is a moment when I realize that someone felt very upset at losing a ring. That pain can linger for days months and even years later one can remember the pain at losing something special. I have to think that each one is a wedding band....so there was some great loss there for someone. That being said there was great joy for me at each discovery. That third ring was great all those kids jumping up and down and screaming.....I had the ring in my hand and just did the old nestea plunge.....just fell straight back into the water in joy !!

[Blak bart]

Dave

Thanks dave...its always amazing when you can get more than a couple golds....even better when you can do it when gold is peaking in price !!

ARC...Thank you my man for motivating me with your gold price post !! I wasnt paying attention and when you posted that it was like a kick in the arse. I had to wait a day for the weather, but it paid off thanks brother !!

Ya SD....I was pleasantly surprised at the lack of trash today. I know that the other guy from miami was picking up alot of bottle caps.....he was dragging a magnet around too. 32 grams is not a shabby day. Thanks SD....Happy hunting my friend.

Thx Bart, haven't been back in 17yrs! We still have lots of friends in the upper keys and do plan a trip down to visit them and hopefully meet up with you. Need to get thru this China virus first. Almost every weekend we would pack the kids, beer, and food in the boat and meet our friends at the sand bar and raft up. Weren't all that many boats at the bar in the 80's. From the youtube vids I have seen, it is bumper to bumper boats and drunks, the sheriff even patrols it goes so rowdy. There has got to be tons of jewelry on the bar, but I suspect most is pretty deep. On another note, I am sure you are aware that they tore down the Tiki Bar here at the marina and built a big new restaurant/bar called Crabbies. Haven't been yet, will let you know more after I go. Also, who is the manufacturer of your digital scale?

Take care and keep up the good work.

Congratulations on the finds, Bart. I can only imagine the thrill that gives you. I’m glad you got to share your treasure hunting adventures with kids. May lead to future treasure hunters. I pray you and yours stay safe with this storm and may it turn up more treasures for you.
