Combo fishing/detecting trip...Snappers,Spanish Macks, 14k.

[lookindown]

Went to the beach with my wife and her brothers family for a little fishing and treasure hunting. Got a nice mess of assorted fish first thing in the morning and then we moved to a beach that had picnic areas and got in a couple hours of water detecting. I found very few targets in two hours and went up and got something to eat. I told my wife I would hang with them where they were swimming and snorkeling and detect around close to their area. Ten minutes in the water and I get a screamer in auto tune and it ids as a solid mid tone. One scoop and I see the band in the shells. I waded over to my group and held my scoop in front of my wife. She looked in and snatched the band out. My nephew looked at it with his young eyes and said its marked 14k. I let out a whoop...14KT white gold, 6.1 grams...IT WAS A GOOD DAY.

You had a better day then I did! My first fishing trip in almost twenty years and I catch a Red Grouper, but, not for long. Turned out 1/2 inch too short. Had to release it.

Yeah, that's some good eating to have to watch swim away...even worse when it was that close to being legal.

Catch fish, find gold, and end the day with a fish fry. It doesn't get any better than that.
