Beach & Shallow Water Hunting
Well, after 7 weeks of hunting local beaches with my Sand Shark and only finding numerous clad and 1 Silver Pendant to show for it, I decided to try my Compadre for the first time at the beach today. The Compadre actually did o.k. in the high damp sand as it did not false until I hit the wet stuff and then not nearly as much as the old F2. Anyway, I moved up top to the dry sand to test the discrimination out and about 3 minutes in I got a nice hit. One scoop of sand later and I had my first nice beach find with the Compadre. Looks to be about 1/3 carat which I will take to my jeweler in the morning to confirm it's worth. Today was a great day at the beach as I found loads of clad in the water with the SS and this nice piece of ice up top...

I really like that Compadre, its a lot of detector for the money. If I was going to buy a discriminator, that would be the one.

Do you have the small coil or the big coil on your Compadre?

Very nice find, congratulations.

It has the 8" coil.
 

Nice job finding that diamond!
