Went out for a short 3 hour hunt this morning with MikeWaz in a new section. Well like 10 min into the hunt I got my 1st decent signal (it bounced a little bit but I dug down and was supprised to see a merc in the hole. My silver drought is finally over!!! A bit later I scored my 2nd merc, then my 1st SLQ for the year and my 2nd one ever, needless to say I was freakin out here!!! Then lastly I found my War Nickel. 4 silver in about 3 hours!!!

The mosquito's were unbearable as soon as you stepped into the shade there were thousands all over you biting and it was hot as heck too!!! We are gonna go back in the fall or after we get a good frost that's for sure!!!

The SLQ is a 1920, I couldn't get a decent shot of it but when its in your hand its unmistakable. Hope everybody had a chance to get out and hunt this weekend!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
