Beach Replentishment Hunting

[Can U Dig It]

Beach replenishment is taking place in Ocean City N.J. They are pumping off shore sand into the beach and spreading it. I'm thinking there might
be some rare targets coming off the bottom of the ocean since there are many shipwrecks out there. Do you think this is a good place to hunt
or not.

In my OC, NJ thread I asked a few replenishment questions- I'll add here.

The beach was replenished- so many large shells, gravel and even some plate iron- HOW does that get through a screen? It's not just the surface--plenty of layers to be seen at the 2-4' cut that runs-miles. Had trouble digging w a T rex (which works great in sand)

Matty- so where were you looking or applying for a permit (**NOT the location) -a known historical site? something you researched? Just in case--You don't need a permit for Coin Beach-right.

Coin beach NOTE- wish I'd known that was coin beach in the early 60's. We were there when the dredges were pumping the sand for the bridge. The dredges were N of the inlet. We were playing in the run off-looking for rocks-shells & sea life.
So-if you see them bulldozing that pile-check it out. Or even PM me.

Was in Delaware, they pumped up hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of lead sinkers, some up to 4 oz. so no big screen in place there. and Hundreds.....
