Just hit Ft Lauderdale! Any ideas?

[Dave44]

We decided to take a quick trip. So I brought the detector.. Anyone have any good hints? Also looking for a sand scoop, if anyone knows a place to get one here!

Anybody want to try to meet at low tide? ( I will have to see when that is around here )

I heard there was a tornado here a little earlier today. Haven't heard of any casualties or injuries though, Hope it stays that way.

Do you land or water hunt or both? Here is a tide chart for Lauderdale-By-the-Sea, Anglin Fishing Pier. I think that is close to what you are looking for

Thanks BigMike.. I land hunt,, But I went to Va. Beach earlier this year so I had a blast! I may have to make a change in Equipment,, I love my detector, but I have to be careful with it. I doubt it will like too much water.

Maybe not so much a change,, but add to the arsenal!

Take a trip to Reillys in Pompano beach and see Larraine, they have wall to wall scoops.

Ideas for a visitor to Fl.... humm. Well stay out of the water there are sharks, rays, jelly fish, and red tide. Only hit the dry sand NO ONE ever looks there. Just yanking your chain..... enjoy the visit. Hope this wind lays for you or its going to be a bit choppy. If you like Cat Fish or shrimp..... check out CAT FISH DEWEY's all you can eat. I got my tee shirt free for having the same name lol.

Thanks fellas,, We went out today and I picked out about 5$ clad a chucke cheese token and some costume jewerly, Heading out again in the morning,, maybe we could find gold!

Met a nice old fella that was in about chest deep and found a really nice silver chain, felt about 1 1/2 ounce, Too deep for the xlt though.


Which made me add-

A new addition to the family,, a nice scoop and a new At Pro Thanks to some helpful hints. See you guys on the beach!

Hope ya score big while there. Water proof or not make sure you clean your equipment after every hunt. The salt is a killer. If you use a coil protector clean it out every time to get a good GB. Enjoy your visit.
