I went to the beach hoping...

[TORRERO]

Took drive down to the coast without my wife, (she hates Metal Detecting) and spent 2 days on the beach hunting at night
by the light of an almost full moon...
here is what I got, the beaches BTW were Hilton Head, and Myrtle Beach or beaches in between there of...
Nope I'm not worried because I didn't find much considering the hours I walked, saw several others walking and they didn't find much either.. but so goes the adventure..

Low tide was at 3:40AM if your wondering...

Small gold ring was from Garden City beach, (looks like a thread).. Small gold earring was from Surfside Beach, Stainless steel ring was from Hilton Head, and the other ring I think is Iron and from Surfside,
Coins were not so plentiful as you can see.. BIG hoop earring is junk and I trashed most of everything else...

Also Gas was $2.71 cheapest Right off the beach... as if they pipe it in directly !! ha ha ha
Are you jealous ?

Also I don't know why, maybe someone can clue me in on what the Gold thread ring might be from because its strange to think its a wedding band...
It tests to 18k, while the earring tests to 14k

Dude comes back with a jewelry store and a tank full of half-price gas, complains didn't find much, and asks if we're jealous.... ‽ 🙄

I should be so unlucky.... 😝

You know, what you see in the pictures is about 20 hours of detecting sooo I don't consider it much actually ha ha ha
AND... just to be clear ... I wasn't referring to the Metal Detecting finds when I said Jealous, I was referring to the price of Gas, as its even higher than that where I live... and I'm 4 hours away from that beach..
🤣 🤣🤣

My last 20 hours consists of one .38 musket ball and a pile of rusty nails. 😞

You spent 20 hours walking with a metal detector and only found one good target ?
You need to find a new place to hunt...
May I suggest the beach ? 😳 🤣

The rusty nails were plenty good targets--clear as bells.

No, I invested a lot fair amount of time into the "Tekkna program," which IMO didn't live up to its hype.

Nope. Every detectorist in this county lives closer to the beach than I do, and I just don't find the potential as interesting. I'd rather hunt old farms & farmhouses.

"Tekkna program,"

what is that ?

 

[Bucket Lister]

what is that ?

Seriously? 🤨 😲

Tekkna program

If you haven't tried Gary Blackwell's Tekkna program I suggest you give it a gol Based on Sensitive FT in version 2.0. 42 discrimination, no notch, 0 silencer, offset of 10, using High Square audio. He runs iron at 10. I left it standard at 7. I also use audio filter of 1. This really makes...

That's a great day in my book. I've found less than $5.00 in clad, no treasure at all, after 20 hrs. worth of effort in the last week and a half. Hunting in the water low tides, high tides on the towel lines and multiple beaches. Gas is $4.20 for regular here in SoCal. I'm envious......

 

[Plugcut]

A successful hunt in my opinion, thanks for post and info on tides !!
