Was raining when i got up- didnt feel like going out - what a mistake that would have been.
went to a saltwater spot I'd not been to since last year,,its was still sprinkling so i had whole place to myself. Got in and turned my machine on and planned on heading out deep. Got a good signal right off the bat. Turned out to be a pyramid sinker and looked like it had been there a little while. I wondered how local guys would have missed it. About 6 feet away I got another but this one was newer - maybe lost in last few days. Still a good sign that maybe spot had not been hit recently. Then I got a silver ring - slightly blackened - so another good sign no one been there recently.
Got some fresh coins but got some that have been there a little while...then got another silver ring..once again blackened. I was hitting in water from waist deep to the shore - very uncommon for me. Then i got a nice signal that sounded like a ring and it was - 14k white gold band.
I figured i should head out deeper before tide changed. I could always hit in shallow as tide came in.
Worked out from chest to chin for about 20 mins. - not a signal. Headed back in and got a blast - went off like a can. Scooped up the bracelet...have not cleaned yet (still on the road), but the eye of the fish looks like a gold bead - its marked EDEN inside.
I headed back out again and after a half hour the only signal i got was a lure - could not believe how clean it was farther out...so back in i went. I ended up getting another band...when i first saw it -of course thought gold - but as i reached in i could see dull greyish color and had feeling - titanium.
I headed to another section of the beach - it was rocky and got a good signal down deep - after 3 scoops - saw yellow band in scoop amongst the rocks and shells...marked 750 (18k) Tiffany & co. Nice! worked around there and got nothing else - moved to another section out deep - no signals - soooo...headed in again. Got a few crusty zincs and a few pull tabs...then in like ankle deep water was surprised to see another white gold band in my scoop. Couldnt believe it - a three gold day - its been awhile since i had one of those.
Sun came out and beach goers started to flood in. I started working towards my vehicle. Kids started to come over and ask questions and wind started to pick up and was whistling thru my head phones - I got a few nickles and some nails. My shoulder and arm were killing me - my chest/hip mount was on machine i had stolen a few weeks ago - CZ21 is tough swinging out of the water with it rod mounted. So was about to call it a day. Got a loud blast and thought i had a screw cap - was shocked to see another band in my scoop - this one turned out to be platinum! Whoohoo
Worked the rest of the way to my car with not much to show - but it was a very good morning - boy am I glad I went out
so ended up with
1 platinum
1 18k yellow gold
2 - 14k whit gold
2 - silver
1 - titanium
