Another Less-Than Stellar Day of Water Detecting

[oldmxrat]

At least I had some targets to keep me busy, and it was a really nice day in the lake...but where's the good stuff?!
Fake, stainless steel, junk, clad and fishing junk.

An old dog license with no date 🤦‍♂️

This has been the worst summer hunting since I started md'ing!
Oh well, at least I can still do it.

I thought that you found some very nice recoveries here and I had many hunts like this .It’s just enough for us to go back and stay in the game.
You are one of the best out there and I’m confident that you will snag the precious metals very soon my friend.

At least you got out, recovering targets.
Dig enough of them and odds of getting the gold goes up.
Best of luck on the next hunt.

We all have hunts where we don't go home a winner - but we usually manage to have a good time trying !

Thank-you much for the encouraging words Bill, I'll keep at it!

Thanks Peps, it's always nice to be able to get out there, regardless of the results. 🙂

Thanks E-trac, there's not many better ways to spend the day than doing what I like in such a beautiful lake!

Those finds look good 👍 to me. I like that religious pendant!

Trickle down economics I suppose. What with inflation and gas prices as they are, everyone is too broke to have anything good to lose.

I am with you. I believe that the value of gold and silver increasing has opened the floodgate of all things stainless, tungsten and Claire's.
