Mega target day, big red gemstone, 228 coins, 5 rings

[Blak bart]

Geeez !!.....well, no gold except plated pieces ?? Which I can't believe. This is the most targets I've ever dug underwater, and my pocket was like a diving lead at the end of the day....it was a long day, I got in at 10 am, and got out at 5pm !! I took a quick break when a swimmer had a heart attack....big commotion and stampede of worried people dragging him to shore...by the time I got there he was regaining consciousness and the ambulance was there real fast. I was first back in !! Also saw 2 small lemon sharks again !! this is the keeper pile minus the lead. at one point this big red gemstone appeared in the white sand, and I could see it twinkling in the light from far away on the white sand. I think it may be a garnet, it has a couple chips in the girdle, but she's a beauty !! 5 rings...1 silver toe ring, 1 silver finger ring, 2 stainless rings, and a plated toe ring. also had a slew of earrings, and a nice gold plated 925 chain with religious charms. There was plenty of cheap junk jewelry but the gold eluded me. The trash pile was emmence also....ill take a pic and post it. Now I get to go and play pro ball on the treasure boat, and hope to dive for the el angel bueno, and la concepcion...1563 spanish galleons !! Wooo hooo !! Ill try and hit the swimholes a couple times before I start on the treasure boat next weekend !!
Happy hunting folks....get out there before summer is over !!

Congratulations on a great day, even if you didn't find any gold!

Every target i thought there would be gold....next time...if it was easy we would all be rich !!

.... .. .. .. Wow! What a hunt!!!!

Most targets ever for me terry....if I wasn't snorkeling I don't think it would be possible to recover that much booty with a scoop !! Was able to recover items as small as an earring back.....I tried to weigh it and it didn't register on my scale !!

shoot eyeballing that thing is impressive!

Tpmetal....that thing was shining and reflecting at me from at least 8 feet away on the white sand. Looked like a drop of blood in the sand !!

Tungsten carbide, 925 silver, and a stainless for the ring count !! A little religous medallion, and a laser tag token !! Another epic clear beautiful day in the water !! 3 rings dropped over the weekend !! Same spot !!

What a haul for the time spent in the water, I'd think one would like a scribbled up prune after that.
Liking the eyeball gemstone find-hawk eye for sure.
Query what was the water depth you were playing in?
Congrats on the new personal total-next time you will be rewarded with the gold once again.

Whats the deal on the blue stone ring ? I like it !

So there was a trio of mom and 2 daughters....they were friendly and mom was asking about treasurehunting. These three were keen and quickly put on there masks and snorkels....they scooted off under the body line and when they came back they had a twenty dollar bill and a beautiful gold and pearl braclet....I was beaten by 3 snorkeling ladies on my own turf !! Haaa ha good for them....they were super excited !!
