Well this weekend will be my first beach shallow water hunt (other then the time I went ankleish deep but stopped cause it was way to cold) I'm looking for some tips or suggestions. I've read a lot of what's already been posted on the subject but I was wondering how deep do you hunt in the water my detector is an AT pro which says its good submerged up to ten feet but I don't plan on going anywhere near that deep. But what's a good bench line that you other beach hunters go by. I'm going to a popular lake so its not salt water and there's no tides to consider I just don't wanna waste a lot of the day searching deeper water if its not very fruitful also besides how deep the water you normally hunt is how deep are your targets usually can I expect to be digging 8 to 10 inches under water. Thanks for any help you can give me I better end this before I start to ramble on. Oh wait its too late
