    Well I went out for an hour and a half not much to show for it a lot of junk signals and the sand flies were bad. I did dig a few relics though one was an old pick axe I thought it was a tine of a manure bucket lol the second was a broken piece of a two man wood saw. hopefully I'll get out tomorrow and give it another shot Snapshot 1 (7-18-2012 9-43 PM).png Don't know if the pick is worth anything I might have to call the gem shop to see he's into the mining stuff and where I found was in an area that was test mined in the late 1800's early 1900's.

    Would be nice I do need to get a lighter detector been thinking about giving my sons ace 250 a try cause the ecal is a little to heavy for land even with the straight shaft.

    I've had so much fun learning this Ace 250. Found a few nifty things so far and looking forward to more as time goes on. Doesn't hurt to try it out.
