Spent the weekend at Ft. Lauderdale with family...got in three short hunts for a total of about 7 hours...never been down to that area and was surprised at the number of targets...water was unreal clear...I saw barracudas, stingrays, manatees and other fish...my best find was a gold grille...that's been on my wish list for a long time...it passed 10k test and weighs 4 grams...funny to see your target in the scoop smiling back at you...I also got a junker ring that fooled me for a second...had a great time with a gold bonus...good luck to everyone.

Always cracks me up to see a grill...I always think some girl knocked it out of him.
Glad you had a good trip!
 

awesome finds, i've spent hours upon hours on those beaches and haven't found a grill like that! sweet!!!!
 

Great finds for sure !!
Did you these on dry / wet or in shallow water

Thanks, Dale

Only hunted in the water...90% of finds were in waist deep trough next to shore...grill was found chest deep, past the sandbar...one of the very few targets I got out deep.
 

Thanks, I just received my CTX3030, now I can hit the water. I just need to learn this machine.
 

Nice finds Lookindown! Congrats on smiling GOLD. Glad you had a good time and hope you continue having good hunts. Were you using your CTX?
 

Grilles must be a Florida thing. I don't know of anyone in So. California ever finding one of those
 

Nice grill LD. Found my best gold/diamond rings EVER on Ft Lauderdale beach earlier this year. Glad you enjoyed your stay in South Florida.

Please post a pic after you get that grill fitted. lol!
 

I'm guessing you're gonna sell the grill and not keep it... lol

I don't have a CTX...was using my CZ21.
 

Great finds! Ft Lauderdale is a favorite of mine. I grew up there and have great memories of the beach there. Went to school there too. Awesome place.

I went up to the beach and dropped it in my wifes hand...she freaked out and said eww, eww eww...I went like I was going to put it my mouth and she about passed out...I didn't think it was gross, I thought it was awesome.
 

If I was going to drop thou$ands on unnecessary dental work, I'd makes sure the teeth were straight!!! Great finds!
 

Awesome gold score brother!! That musta put a big "smile" on your face!

That was my first thought too! If course, if I wanted a good looking smile, I think I'd have some natural looking implants done! :laughing7: You found gangsta teeth!
 

Yeah those babies are a little wonkers [emoji12] Nice find!

Funny how our wives feel about grills, mine reacts the same way. Congrats on your first grill....do you remember what tone it rang out as on the CZ21....on the CTX, they normally come in like can slaw or foil, got one with the Sand Shark years ago that was a double beep and I almost didn't dig and the same thing happened with an Excal...... really curious what tone yours hit on the CZ was there anything in the tone that made you think trash?

LD glad you had a good time. I was out Sat morning and met Big Mike and Dave. Sorry I missed meeting you.
