Just Bought a Metal Detector

[johnnyjohnson2043]

Hi everyone!

I haven't been metal detecting in 25 years but I was finally able to buy a Garrett Ace 400. I live in Southwest Florida and have read the beaches down here are hit or miss (lots of cans and other trash) but I'm going to try my luck. I'm also interested in seeing if I can get permission to hunt some of the inland properties I've seen with old, abandoned farm houses. Not sure how well that'll work out but it doesn't hurt to try. I look forward to getting to know everyone here.

That's a good machine. I always like the dry sand best.

With any luck, that pending hurricane will blow up some shipwrecks from long ago and splash some o' dat sweet sweet treasure on the shore for you!

That guy in England just scored a huge treasure with the Ace 400. It was all over the news today.

Welcome back to detecting, and it looks like you are just in time for some storm eroded beaches!

Welcome. I started this hobby 4 months ago, and I use the Ace 400 as well. Happy hunting!
