Lake hunt, five wheats.

treblehunter · Jul 10, 2014

I did two, two hour hunts today, clad, allot of 65's, 67's, no silver. I found five wheaties and only managed one date 1945. Plenty of shoreline to hunt here, I'm getting dialed in with my water hunting tactics. I'm sure I gave the poor lifeguard girl a few laughs watching me wallowing around in the water! Lol

Pretty good hunt! Lots of nice finds! Congrats!

It's always a little bitter sweet getting '65's ,just out of range.

At lest you put a smile on someone's face today!

You'll get the hang of it no doubt! GL. HH!

Thanks,I have a whole drawer full of them,I think that one rang like a quarter, it had me going because it was the deepest target besides the half I found there yesterday

I was pinpointing with my machine, then I would work my way down to the coil and was using a hand scoop. I got pretty good, getting the target on first scoop. Not many targets deeper than 2 inches. Perfect day for it, little rain, not allot out people around. I'll do a beach hunt this weekend down the shore. I figured out a place where I won't be fighting the waves from the surf. I'm on a water quest

Great finds! Thanks for sharing...

Thanks guys for the comments, this spot is exciting for me because of the dates I'm getting off the coins in lucky enough to find are in that silver range.I also like that it is close to home which makes it convenient. Last summer I water hunted just a little bit, so this feels new and fun. It's giving me a break from that feeling of being a Jehovah witness/vacuum cleaner salesman. I have one permission I want to get that will have me knocking. That place has the possibility of being like one of Vino's sites, which would pull me away from the cool cool water in a heartbeat. Sweating for the oldies, is worth hunting in the heat.
