Same lake.... 3 small gold *Pic's added*

Hit the same lake again yesterday. Only hunted about an hour and a half before back started hurting, but in that time found 3 gold rings (makes 5 total for this spot).
One signet 14k, one really old looking one that tested 10-12k and has a purple stone, and another dainty 14k that looks like a bow...
All of those, plus some more earrings (silver), and $6.59 in clad, and quite a few sinkers in maybe a 30' x 60' section in front of the pier.
I still have a lot to cover. Maybe tomorrow.

I will post pic's later also...

Always careful.... I have a feeling this spot has a lot more... Such a big area, so little time.... I just kick myself for not having hit it a LONG time ago.. Probably a lot out of reach. One of the groundskeepers was telling me the "resort" has been there since the 1930's... Sand in some spots goes down 3-4 ft, others it is only a little over a foot and then hard muck. I found the one with the purple stone about 6" down in the hard muck. So maybe most isnt out of reach. Heck, if I am finding tiny lead sinkers as well as big egg sinkers, then gold shouldnt be able to go down any deeper than those.

Ooops.... Forgot to add pic's of the 'honker' I found the first day on that spot, but this is after a good cleaning/polishing.. This is the second nicest ring I have ever found. Jeweler said worth "at least $500 wholesale... Sure aint gonna melt this beauty down though..
