Today was the first day the rain has let up in a week now and it is supposed to rain the next 3-4 days so I thought if I was gonna get out for a while I better do it today and I'm glad I did. The ground was moist and some spots were very saturated. It took me a couple hours to find my first silver because the combination of the new MSC Ratphones ( I'm not used too ) and the wet ground conditions everything was sounding a bit different. Once I got the first silver and heard what it sounded like I dug the rest in about 2 more hours. I was getting some deep targets for sure with the SLQ at 11" in the hole with a huge nail thus the scratch on the face DANG!! oh well. This ties my personal best silver count for one day, I was really hoping to find number eleven but my battery on the Etrac played out and I didn't bring extras. Which was fine because my butt was kinda dragging after 4 hours of digging anyways. Hope you guys enjoy.

The only place that I could find that much silver is the pawn shop. Great jod & very nice finds, I love the way silver looks when it pops up out of the plug.

What a day! That much silver in a day has eluded me. On the ratphones....Do you think after using them they are worth buying. Are you really hearing signals you may not have heard before? Just curious as I have been looking at them. Thanks.

Super digs, 10 silver in one day is great. My brother just got and E trac. I hope it works out for him as well as you are doing. Any tips you can suggest?
