Just went down to check out conditions, and here is my report. Virginia Beach is awaiting plunder! As much as I want to hang onto these so I can be all alone out there, I know I should share them. These pictures are from the south end of the Oceanfront. I was doing great until I was sandblasted, rainblasted, and a knee deep wave nearly knocked me over. And thanks to the little wife for taking all the photos!

What great pictures! A big thank you to your lovely wife for taking them. NOW! Lets see the finds!
 
WOW! I'd kill for those beach conditions!!! Man would I ever like to hunt that beach right now. Get out there as soon as it is safe and get all the treasure you can!!!!!!! And then report back so I can drool over your finds.

talk about sand movement those are some great pics
 
congrats! nice pics and I hope you find more. We were just saying that we wished we weren't busy tomorrow cause the beach would be the place to be.
 
Why wait? get out there and get some today! :)
 
You have the start of some great beach cuts there, maybe lots of goodies to find.
 
WOW It's tearing it up. I notice you don't wear water shoes..... You step on a man-o-war tentacle or urchin spine your going to know it. Congrats and can't wait to se what else you pull out of there. Be safe, Ike's right behind. Aloha
 
Awsome wish I were there. Get out low tide tonight should be great. Will not take longe for the sand to move back in so get it while you can.
Good luck.
 
holey moley, excellent photos, nice of your wife to take em all.. alls I can say is WOW best of luck hunting :thumbsup:
 
Great pics and great finds....

Can't wait to get down there Sunday 6 AM. Thanks for the pics and great cuts!!!

 
Wow, I was just there yesterday and this is what the beach looked like...

There is alot washed away, but not as much as I was hoping....

I thought of going out there today, but I will wait till tomorrow...gonna' head up to the ocean front. Might stop at Croatan too... not sure where I will hit first!

Glad you had fun!

Great photos!!! Hanna is hitting the Jersey Shore right now.

Good Luck

you could go to china with those cuts. WOW.
 
Just returned from a 6 hour hunt around low tide. Im afraid the cut I saw was the only big one on the beach. The rest was no cut to 1 foot high at best. Saw at least 15 other folks out with detectors. Talked to most of them, and the concensus was that not enough moved, and there is little to be found. Tis a shame too, I had hoped the entire beach looked as I saw it this morning, but no dice :(.
