Hello im new to this hobby and currently residing in middle georgia and by new i mean i have yet to buy a metal detector but i am planning on it within the next month or so. I had a few questions that im not sure of about buying one or two and the guy at radio shack was about as helpful as my 5 year old. First off my plan is to be able to do it in water waist high to get started and on land but i have no clue what i should get...I dont have the biggest bankroll im looking to spend around 4 or 5 hunred should i get 2 separate ones or would one be good for both land and water? I was looking on kellyco and saw a viper trident i was wondering if this is a good all around MD or should this strictly be a water one? And does it work fully submersed if i happen to get that far. The second one i was looking at was a garret ace 250 it seems like a lot of people use this one is it because of the price or its just a good detector? I apologize ahead of time if i posted this in the wrong area but i was hoping to knock out the introductions and questions all at once. A side note i would really like to buy two total so i can bring a friend or my wife with me sometimes so if you can help out with any advice on buying them please give me a headsup any help is considered a great help at this starting point. FYI I dont care if they are used so if anyone knows any other sites im overlooking dont hesitate.
Thanks from Georgia
