If you are talking about Galveston, TX - you might have more success if you jump over to Sub-Forums: Texas for information (i.e., clubs, etc.)...
 
I have a friend that just hunted crystal beach and had pretty good luck this past weekend. He claims it is a good beach to hunt as it stays busy during summer and holidays. He only hunted wet and dry sand areas not in water with old analog whites machine.
 
Thanks I never been there so looking forward to it. I rented a condo on seawall and taking my atpro
 
Jim, here are some of the local spots:
East Beach - lots of cans here, it's the alcohol allowed beach
Stewart Beach - largest family friendly beach
Pleasure Pier - lots of traffic due to amusement rides
61ST Street - beach where the surfers hang out, lots of pendants here
San Luis Hotel Beach - resort beach
Galvez Beach - resort beach

The only place to stay out of on Galveston - small section of beach called Galveston State Park, detecting there is not allowed.

Crystal Beach is good, it got destroyed a few years back from Ike.

Ground balance your AT between 0-20, it's a mineralized beach. Good targets will break through the chatter.

Have fun, and if you need anything, give me a call! I'm 76 miles north of the seawall LOL!
