I want to welcome you to a great site. Tons of information, and the knowledge that people have on this site is just outstanding. What part of Flordia and what type of detecting do you do?
Actually I live very close to you in Oldsmar, I use my detector whene ver I get a chance not too long ago a friend called me and told me he lost a ring in the intercoastal when he was fishing for reds he cast and a heavy gold ring flew off his finger and landed in the muddy goo. I was on the location within an hour or two and found the ring in minutes. He gave me a twenty and was grateful (HEAVY GOLD RING)
