11 Silver Today__My Best day EVER !!!!!!!!!!
Started at 9 am...........first 9-10 plugs I dug were junk/Tabs ect..............I had hunted 1 ½ hours,and only found a wheat when I decided to start a grid pattern.......
I Grid-ed about ½ hour,found 1 merc,but decided to walk about 100 ‘ away,in a hard to access spot..........Lots of standing water.........& kind of miserable hunting............
But I am sure glad I did.............I started finding wheat,Merc,wheat,rosie, SLQ........
I stopped digging the signals that pinpointed 4" or less & dug only 5"+ signals........I dug silvers and wheats from 5"-10"....................................................................................
I had my machine set HOT .....with Gain and Sens almost maxed..........................
...................................I found 10 clad Quarters,5 Clad dimes,10 mems......$3.10.........
Also found 13 wheats,a NO DATE Standing Liberty Quarter=S.L.Q.,a 1953 D Silver Washington Quarter,5 mercury dimes,and 4 rosies..........My BEST SILVER DAY EVER !!!!
