Bart,
Sounds like you've got a dream detecting trip in FL to look forward good luck with that and make sure to share your finds with the crew.

RTR......we fished in the rondout creek. We got a handful of catfish, an eel, and the small mouth. Im here waiting for the sleepy heads to get up and then were off to albany. Ill fly out on Saturday to orlando and meet my sister. We will drive to vero for a week of treasure hunting and vacation time with my family !! Ill hook up with some t-netters there too. Ill hook up with phipsfolly mike, and schpillups steve, both t-netters that used to live in the keys, but now live in the vero/ft pierce area. Ill detect all the 1715 spots with steve and try the emerald sifting with mike. If I play my cards right I may get out with the MRR salvage team and blow some holes on the colored beach wreck or corrigans wreck. Working with the likes of dan porter, john brandon, and levin shaver would be quite the honor !!! We'll see.......im not gonna hold my breath on that as they are pretty busy right now. I will try hard to get out with them though !! When I was 15 my friend and I found a flint lock rifle in the sand dune along with bottle shards that read "London 1715" I think this could be the henry jennings raiding parties landing spot. So ill explore this spot again too. Wooo hoooo!!! Exciting stuff, im fired up. !!
 
Hey Bart.........To bad you wern't in that area about one month ago when the shad are running.Caught in small (20 foot wide)streams(with throw nets) that dump into the Hudson.One such productive stream is in Stattsburg NY.On the East shore , almost across from where you are in Kingston.The roe use to go for a couple bucks back in the day,but not now.Take a look here > https://www.charlestonseafood.com/product_p/shd.htm

Ah,but it sooooo good.Cooked in iron pan, in bacon fat and served with bacon YUM !:)
 
Haaaa ha !!! As I was dreaming about detecting all these parks along the bank of the hudson..........low and behold.......a lone detectorist digging hard on the shore line of one such park.......hope he got something good !!!
 
Whats up WD? Whatcha up to today ??
 
Bart, what are you going to hunt for in Erie?
 
Bart..On your way to Albany you'll come to a big island (between Athens & Hudson cities) called "middle grove flats" .Great spot to swim,water is much cleaner up there. Note for M detecting... The island has no inhabitants :) ........Also the ferry at that point(between Athens & Hudson) is where "War of the Worlds" with Tom Cruise was filmed .
 
WD,
Either seasoned or pickled....lol.

Looks like ill stay home when im done with my vacation. Guess I wont make it to the lakes this time. Our other employee will start his summer vacation on the 22. Ill finish my trip to vero, and go back to the keys. I will be outfitting the new sport fish and caretaking the other boats and properties. We have 6 properties and five boats at the oceanreef club in keylargo. Then in july ill come back to upstate NY to metaldetect and bottle dig. Hopefully we will make a trip to the bahamas to dive and fish in july also !!
