8 hours = 8 rings

Top · Nov 21, 2016

Well, this was definitely my best hunt so far.

8 rings in my first 8 hour hunt. My previous longest was 6 hours.

3 gold (4 if you count the plated one), 1 silver and 3 junk ones.

81 junk targets including misc. junk jewelry, bottle caps, pull tabs, etc. + 46 coins. This brings my targets / hour down to 15.88 (down from the low 20s on average). However, I was in the rough surf most of the day because we basically didn't have a low tide today and the beach was packed with people. I'm not much of a people person when it comes to detecting.

Thanks for looking.

Great hunt Top. I'm a Louisiana boy heading to the Mississippi Coast today and staying the night. I never ever do well on the beach. What's you secret?

The secret is hunting a beach that gets a million plus tourists per year and noone has ever hunted (seriously) before.

That's what it thought. The Mississippi beach isn't a big tourist attraction. It pretty much sucks.

P.s. Thank you for my Freedom [emoji631]

Yep,you have to go where people lose things. REmember that finding anything of value is a rare event in relative terms.
My pleasure to serve. Be sure to do your part; stay informed and go vote everytime.

Nice! Killer hunt! and 3 gold rings in a hunt. That's FANTASTIC... I've done two, twice.. .but three is amazing!

I was very surprised but I am quite sure that there is a lot more out there. This beach has seen millions of visitors since the 1950s and was never hunted until this year.
6.5km with only two serious hunters that I have seen.
