    Two water hunts over the weekend

    Got in the water Saturday and Sunday morning. Saturday was a slight positive low tide at .31 while Sunday was a dead even low tide at .00

    Saturday produced some silver coins, a $1 coin and clad with one Junk ring that at first glance got me heart pumping. I saw glint of gold color but only turned out to be gold plate junk.

    Today's hunt got me a few more destryoed silver coins including a 1951 Franklin Half, 1958 Rosie and 1945 war nicklel. One Bronze religious pendant and one wheat. No gold for me this weekend but my friend John hunted with me today and managed an 18k small womans ring. Until next time...

    My open invitation stands. Anytime Dan, just let me know few days ahead.
    Finding silver in the water isn't the same as land as its always destroyed. Need gold for a successful hunt.
    Sunday's hunt was very tuff with high winds and pounding surf, I had one wave crash over me and fill my waders with salt water. Froze my arse off after that. rofl
