Persistence Pays off Gold & Silver

Hit the beach today it was pretty rough. Took about five waves over the head lol. I had one target that was really way down there I almost gave up because I had taken out six full scoops and it was still there and I kept getting knocked off target. It was a nice signal and I didn't really want to give up, glad I didn't. On about the seventh or eighth scoop I recovered a nice 14K mens wedding band.

I also found a silver ring and a gold, silver & copper bracelet, along with a cheap chain and sailboat.

Way to go Bill. I know what you mean about those waves, yesterdays were small, but when they hit ya, pow you got moved 8-10' away. It pays to be persistant. :thumbsup:

Re: Persistence Pays off Gold & Silver

Some nice finds there Bill. :thumbsup:

I know what you mean about those deep signals with crashing waves. I have dug what felt like a hole to China to get a gold ring...........Been knocked upside down more times then I care to admit......Slipped off the back side of sandbars over my head with 5 lb scoop and 4 lb detector sliding underwater thinking "drowning is not an option"
