I have this spot I call Party Island that lies in the middle of a large lake and all the boaters and jet skiers go there to swim and party. The only access is by boat and I think I'm the only one who hunts it so I'm not open to discuss exact locations. Got out there late today and hunted about 2 hours and found 5 clad quarters, a game token and 11 pennies. Lots of pull tabs and bottle caps were found and discarded.
Maybe I'll try again next week. Last year, I pulled a $2,000 man's 3/4 ct diamond ring out of there.

Cool spot and nice ring!! I lost my first wedding ring in a lake in South Carolina. My wife was next to me when I found out it was gone. It was not pretty but she survived.LOL

I took a new convert out to a site like that last spring and even loaned him one of my detectors. He found a large 14K gold mans wedding band. I found some clad pennies! I hate when that happens! ;D Monty
