Looks like my water detecting is done for the year. Bummer....... Tomorrow we are looking at 9-12" of snow north of Green Bay followed by a week of a Polar Vortex. I can never remember a snow storm this big this early.

My season wasn't too bad. I found 2 gold rings, 2 silver rings, 2 silver necklaces, and a fair amount of titanium rings. Also lots of junk rings, earings, and tons of clad. Oh, forgot to mention, if bottle caps ever become valuable I am gonna be rich! The problem this year was I spent the first half of my season land detecting.

Next year my focus is gonna shift to all water. The only time I will land detect is in the spring when there is still ice on the lakes and rivers or if I have just a quick hour to get some hunting in. I really envy you southern folks who can hunt year round! I have to admit we chuckle when you say the water is cold!

Now my focus shifts to the kids wrestling season. With three kids in wrestling we are on the run all winter to weekend tournaments and practices four days a week. The youngest ones have already started training for the season and we will be wresting in a different town, usually twice a weekend until Easter. This helps keep my mind off of detecting.

I will of course be reading the forums and looking at all your great finds! Take care and happy hunting!

Have a warm winter.......and enjoy the beat down your boys put on the cubs tonight.
 

I've seen that arctic plunge that's coming our way. Were the gold rings just w.b. or better? Water is getting to the point of unbearable but warm to you most likely. Glad u had some great Items come your way. I learned my lesson to, soon as the warm comes on and people are getting wet I'm in! Hope next season you triple your water finds! Good luck on the wrestling season!

Both rings were 14k. One at 9 grams the other at 5 grams.

Last week the water temp was at 42 degrees. I just wear light weight waders with several warm layers below. I made it 3-4 hours at that temp and was chilled, but not cold.
 

No..I meant cubs....:laughing7:
 

I feel for you northern guys...congrats on your finds and keep warm.
 

Double check:

I feel sorry for you guys but not your football team.
