dig everything?
I have a local city park I've been hunting, lately in the more trashy areas,I'm only digging the signals of pennies/dimes and above,theres lots of pull tabs, I,ve noticed that my actual clad amounts have gone up
 because i'm covering more ground,but I may be missing some nickels and lost jewelry by ignoring those signals, If I dug everything the ground would look like it's been disced What i've started doing is digging all the signals in the less trashy areasnot near the picnic areas and benches. fewer holes will keep my spot open in the future.

Good plan, you may want to go over it again at a later time to get the ground to recover and lower discrimination a notch.

Hey Hank I have done the same exact thing. I will do this especially when time is a factor, or if I know I am going back, Beale.
