I went out again yesterday for a short lunchtime hunt. On my way to my spot I noticed they cut the grass at a spot I have pulled about 8 silvers and countless wheats from in the past. I quickly turned around and headed over as they had cut grass in areas I had not hunted before and was always long grass. I was just about to head back to the office when I got a solid half dollar signal at 5 inches on my White's Coinmaster. I flipped open the plug and there at the bottom was this thing of beauty! This is my first silver half.
