Question detect at night?

hello, do you enjoy detecting at night? we do so we have came up with something to help out. it is a light that attaches in seconds to any metal detector. they also swivel so you can shine them on your hole as you dig. these are really handy and fit any detector. they come ready to attach and include everything you need including batteries. we are putting these together and offering them on here for sale for $15.00 postage paid anywhere in the continental u.s. if you are interested just let me know!send me a pm.

most of my pictures wont upload but i will be happy to email them to you.

That'd likely get you arrested (or shot) in this neck of the woods. I have a light that clips to the bill of a hat....and it's bright enough, but I haven't hunted at night yet.

well out here in the backwoods night huntin on your property its the .45 or 357 first. the animals come out at night. coons foxes bears. rabbit?????????
2 leg animals i'm not to worried about. i get of work and take off a kimber then put on a .22 9 shot (1st. 3 snake rounds) then at dusk go back to .45 or 357. but i carry 24/7. as far as lights i use a sure fire at work and home. md' at night miss john came up with this and it works great. l.e.d. light clips on your headphones can see where your walking and swinging can see the hole great and your find. ya get 2 for 12 bucks at cosco with 4 extra batteries 3.v lithiums. the l.e.d.s(s) are bright.

Default Night Hunting????

The only place that I can night hunt is at the beach. Many people assume that if you are doing this activity at night then you must be doing something illegal even in a public park or school ground. Some people have been very hostile and have told me to stop although it is in a public place. In one case I told them to call the cops cause I was doing nothing illegal and was being harrassed by them. .....So I stopped most of my night hunting except at the beach where one is left alone ........HOPE THIS HELPS.......

Detecting at night with a flashlight.. Think I'll pass.. Here if you do it in town you'll have an excellent oppertunity to meet the sheriff who will tell you to go find something else to do so's people stop calling him. Out of town you'll either get to duck a load of buckshot, see if your faster than someone's snarling dog or if you go into the woods there are big, nasty, furry things out there that go bump in the night and I prefer to have ALL my attention focused on THEM.
