Default detecting on an eroded beach

Planning on hitting some beaches that are eroded on my outing next Month. I believe there are some beaches out there close to the Miami Beach area that are wasting away. Not too sure but I think there are some out there. Would those be good beaches to detect? Will I find old finds there if they have not been replaced with new sand? Has anyone detected beaches like that and have you found old stuff? Let me know. Thanks in advance

He talks about beach cuts and beach erosion, excellent information that you will want to have as a beach hunter. The answer is yes, always hunt eroded beaches but do it as as soon after the erosion takes place as possible because these nice, old goodies won't last long. Other beach hunters know this is a golden opportunity and they will swoop down on it like a flock of gulls on a spill of McFries!

Default thank you bdahunter

I'm still new at this eventhough it says here I am a seasoned hunter. There should be a couple of areas I know of that have not been replaced with new sand. South beach where the tourists visit are always being replaced but the outskirts are usually left alone. I hope that is the case. I hope I am not giving too much info and some others might beat me to the punch. Ah well that's okay weare all family anyways. Thank you I will check the site now.
