Finds Pouch - Whatcha Using?

Not an accurate assumption, I take all of the trash I dig, 100% of the time. I don’t generally dig a lot of cans but have never ran out of room to carry it all away. Pull tabs, tinfoil, rusty nails and bottle caps are the normal and I always have plenty of room. To each his/her own.
You guys must not be hunting really trashy areas. Either that or you are not carrying out your trash. I don't dig a lot of cans but I still dig some. I can't imagine trying to put cans in a fishing vest or nail apron. Do you also carry a trash bag or do you just not carry them out?
 

Try looking in the local Thrift stores, you get lucky sometimes. I have found pouches and toolbelts that work great for detecting for only $3 to $10. I just found an amazing heavy duty water pouch for $6.00 original price was over $70.00.
Not to mention a couple nice fishing vests.

Axe heads, hoes, shovels, log chains, horse shoes, before long you'll need a pack mule.
 

USA will be soon issuing to all American citizens as part of new stimulus package.

They are already standard issue in the People’s Republic of Connecticut.

I'm using the one that came with my detector but it's small and wearing out. Bob got this one online and really likes it so far. It would be nice to design the perfect one as they all have that one thing you wish it had.

I use a double pocketed pouch just like the one I use for Trap Shooting. They are made to hold a box of shotgun shells and a section for the empty shells. I use one pocket for good finds and one for trash items. I also carry a plastic bucket in my truck to hold more trash. I have used this setup for nearly thirty years. When nugget hunting I use an old Copenhagen can for any nuggets.
 

As you see in my earlier reply to this, I discuss my gear, but going
more streamlined and efficient is the goal, right...?
Well I just have room for a lot of extra stuff, food and extra water.
I'm used to carrying such weight all the time, as it keeps me in shape...!
 

I’m using a small pouch like the Xp finds. Pouch or a cheap Chinese alternative, plus a Whites MX Sport bag which is thin water resistant, large with a zippered front and pull string closing back pouch. This I use for finds ( one for keepers one for trash ) and the other pouch for personal gear and pin pointer. Light and holds a lot. The Gray Ghost catch all is a nice one too
 

I am mainly a coin shooter and mostly use a nail apron, trash on the left, treasure on the right. If I am relic hunting or hunting the fields I use a standard finds pouch

I use a Made in the USA Freeloader Pack Mule pouch. I have used it for over five years and every stitch and zipper is as good as the day it was bought.
 

i have been using a fly fishing vest for many years, but have been giving some thoughts to picking up a different finds pouch like the Omega Mills ,or the pack mule i also really like the looks of the Shrxy pouches

the fly fishing vest i use has several pockets for differnt things to go in and D rings to attach a lanyard for the pin pointer and I added my pin pointer pouch to it it has worked great for me it even has a pouch in the back so you can carry a water blatter if you want to
