So I am at a nice beach at a lake with my new T-Rex scoop. You have to remember this will be my first real sandy beach hunt. The beach is nice white sand just like at an ocean beach. IT's maybe 100 yards long and 30 yards deep. I arrive and no one else is there. I notice lines in the sand parallel to the shore the entire length of the beach. The lines are maybe 1 foot wide and they are about 6-8 feet apart. I thought that was strange but began hunting in the sand with my AT Pro, dragging my new scoop behind me. My plan was to search a while in the sand but spend most of my time in the water. After hunting 10 minutes or so I dug a dime using my new scoop and then looked back behind me. My scoop dragging behind me left the exact same line in the sand as the mysterious lines that were on the sand when I arrived. Someone had just been there a day or two before and searched the entire beach. I did find a few coins and an ear rig but here is my question; Do you experienced guys/ladies use your large coil in the water to cover more area or smaller coil for less resistance in the water. Which searches more area faster?.
