It was wedged in a 20ft chain in 2 feet of water.I saw sun reflecting something on bottom of creek.Then saw the edge was grooved so took of gloves,set down detector,and went and got it.About keeled over when i saw the eagle!(was hunting with etrac at time,try not to go in very far with it).Would have been a 2fer but chain is very old and beyond salvage.Also anyone who has a garret at gold question,my detector today started going 54/55 a statickey and now that is all it does?Any idea what is wrong.I wasn't even in water at the time.

Nice catch!

Could the static be in the air interference?
 
Man, and I have been doing it the hard way all this time!
Nice find!

(Check to see if you have dirt between your coil cover and the coil on your AT Gold).
