Nice day on Flathead Lake.

[dirtscratcher]

Got out on a beautiful day in the Flathead. But I also like to say any day in the Flathead Valley is a beautiful day. Flathead goes down eleven feet every year and it is down about eight feet now. They built a dam in I'm guessing the forties so the old stuff is under water come summer.​

Good to see a fellow Montanan out hitting it already, I've got awhile before I can dig however! Nice Benjamin...

Looks like you got some nice silvers

 

[dirtscratcher]

Thanks for the replies everyone. If it was not for Flathead Lake keeping the shore free of frost I would not be able to detect. Its really something that the Great Lakes are almost all froze and Flathead is not.

Nice Benjamin dirtscratcher. I'm back from the oil fields and holed up in Fermdale. I'm pretty crippled up and using crutches, so won't be doing any detecting till Spring at least. Are you detecting near Doc's Island?

Sorry to hear that. We were over on the West Shore. No frost what so ever. When you get to feeling better give me a shout.

Will do! Keep us posted if you find more goodies.

Hey Dirtscratcher ! Nice finds !! I had to reply because I lived in Montana in the 50's and 60's - As a pre teen I attended a summer camp
on Flathead lake called camp Marshall , in 1967 and 68 . This was an Episcopal church camp I have know idea if it's still going - Now that's a
place I'd love to go detect !

 

[MT_Joe]

Yep, still going strong South of Lakeside! Camp Marshall

Wonder if a guy could get permission?

Ive seen some beer cans from lake beds and because they were in the muck and didn't get much oxygen - they looked really good (even 1930s ones) - see any?
