Hello Everyone,
Has anybody added anything to the upper end of the rod assembly when they are hip or chest mounting the control box so that it floats and it easy to grab after you scoop up a target? I thought I read somewhere that some people add that gray pipe floatation sold at home improvement stores to the top end of the rod assembly to help it float. Does anybody do this or know if this works? And if so,how much is needed - will it be enough if I put a length between the handle and the stand at the upper end of the rod? I am open to any ideas. Any pics would be appreciated as I am new to this water detecting thing and also a visual person. Thanks.
