It was another great day out there in the Briny deep. Got underwater, and quickly got the diamond man ring. @pepperj Quickly found a match to it when I posted the first pic on the random chat thread.

As the day wore on other golds and silvers were dug from below the sea bed. The boat has let me really get out there to some of the offshore sand bars, and it's paying off. The one ring is my second 18k knock off cartier love ring....these are super popular right now, and I've got 6 fake ones this summer, and 2 were genuine gold. The little panther/cougar charm is 14k, and has a designer mark I havnt been able to fully id yet. Got an old crusty silver with labradorite and a couple other silvers with stones. The silver solitare was zirconia or other non diamond stone. And as is always the case there was plenty of small silver earrings, earring backs, jewelry fittings, and other not so precious pieces of jewelry. Ended up on a beautiful ride home, and called my wife and kid so we could float around the key largo sound and watch the sunset. All in all.....it was another successful day treasure hunting under the waves, and was just an epic beautiful day on the ocean. On another note, the EQX 700 is a wonderful machine, and has performed flawlessly for me this summer ☀️.....if you've followed my adventures you know just how much gold and platinum it's got me this summer, and it's not to shabby on the gold weight this season. Also this machines telescoping feature allows it to pack up and fit just about anywhere for transport.....which has been great for stowing away in the boat !! Thanks for looking, and I hope everyone had a great summer.....water should be chilling down soon, but not yet for us down here.....still got a few water hunts left before I switch to some land and beach spots !!

Checked out another sand bar yesterday with my wife and kid.....we got out there to fish and it was dead calm with no breeze. We absolutely baked our noggins in the sun, and had to go swim somewhere. So it was really nice to swim....and detect for me....at this untouched sand bar. It helps to go on the weekend when there is traffic there.....it helps me see just exactly which part of these vast areas have the highest concentration of boats/people.....I quickly dialed in and got my first piece of jewelry in minutes.....a broken silver ring with amber !! I would have kept at it but my wife and boy were ready to go home and clean fish !!

Great action photo of the fish being caught.
Congrats to your boy for providing for the evening meal. :headbang:
Well at least you were able to see if the location had any targets.

Don't be....its pretty easy when you live in such a tourist mecca. I'm lucky to live in south Florida, and it is the defining advantage. So many tourists on so many swimming spots and beaches !! Then there's the Latin community that are proud to ware there gold !! My skills aren't any better than yours.....its the spots !! But I'll take that as a compliment 😁😁😁🫡
