    Back to back hunts produced a couple 10K rings and some interesting finds.

    Friday it was really cold and I had 5 layers of tops on. At the end of the hunt they were all saturated and I had to remove three for the ride home. My hat was dripping perspiration and the salt was running in my eyes.

    There were so many targets it was none stop digging. Unfortunately it was in the rocks and gravel and extremely difficult to get your scoop to the targets but I was happy with the outcome.

    The area I hunted ( in the water ) was no bigger than 30' x 50' and I was passing on many targets.

    Thanks for looking.

    Looks like you made out like a bandit! What State are you in? Were you beaching it or was it a lake/pond or public area? Just curious of what type of place yields this sort of loot and that much of it!!

    Great hunt Frank . You killed it!! Makes the cold worth while if those are the results. You even have some Buffs and Wheats too. I don't like that pointy thing though

    Awesome job Frank. I was contemplating jumping in the water but I never pulled the trigger. Gratz on all the gold. You have a magnetic compass for gold. I love it
