Had a rather bizaar experience I thought I'd pass along...
Went up to a fishing camp in Canada for a week and had permission to detect around our cabin. Pulled a couple plugs and neatly replaced them, couldn't even tell I was there.
The next morning I see one of the plugs laying about 3 feet from a hole that has been dug in and there is dirt all over the place. I tried to sweep as much dirt as possible back into the hole and put the plug back in place. I didn't give it much thought, figured someone that was with me was playing a trick or something.
The next morning roles around and there are 7 plugs out of the holes! That evening, while coming back around 9:30 PM, just before the mosquitoes killed us, we saw a skunk digging on one of my holes.
Couple theories:
Skunks eat grubs, maybe I smell like a big grub!
or
I may have had a fish smell on my hands from being out earlier in the day and the skunk could smell that??
Never seen anything like it before!!
