    Hi Justin, welcome to the forum from Washington state where the beach sand is seldom dry and beach goers are usually wearing sweatshirts. That Ace 150 seems to do pretty well. You found more in that video on a beach than I ever have. (Admittedly though, I'm almost 200 miles inland so I don't see ocean beaches much.)

    Yeah, I'm with Ska, I've yet to beach hunt. It looks like fun. I'm only an hour from the beach so it's conceivable I'll make my way down there. Maybe this winter when the snow flies! Nice job with the mounted video.

    Welcome Justin. That beach hunting is s whole lot easier digging than up north! My wife and I moved down here 2 years ago this month. We are about an hour from Maderia Beach. Good luck and happy hunting to ya.

    Welcome Justin! I love Florida, especially the Gulf area around Ft. Myers, but have never detected down that way. Here in Wisconsin we have nice beached on Lake Michigan, but we have to deal with black sand (powdered iron), cold water, and ice build up - sometimes up until June! So enjoy the sun and fun!
