As most of you know me from the Surf Forum... I haven't been posting because of not much in the way of erosion here in Mass... so I have done what everyone else has done... Went to the fields.. Glad I did... about a month or so ago, I had the opportunity to do some field hunting... Went to an...

I had obtained permission to hunt a local area of interest recently... When I got there I noticed that the farm area had a small pond attached to the property.... I asked if that would be ok also to search and they gave me the thumbs up... I went down to where there used to be a tire swing and...

Today I did my usual Thanksgiving morning hunt... It was 34 degrees and a very stiff wind was blowing directly onto the beach... Suited up warm and headed out to the beach and almost turned around... Yes it was that cold... But I toughed it out and started to get a few trinkets... I found a few...

Last night I received a very frantic call from a guy who said that his girlfriend had lost her Diamond Engagement Ring over the weekend. I asked all the usual questions, how big, white or yellow gold,or was is platinum... stuff like that... We set up a time for me to go this morning and search...

Micro Hunting today seemed to work well when going slower that usual... Hunted an area not to big around 200 feet long x 75 feet wide with my good friend Leprechaun we both scored some silvers that had been left by others as we could tell they had been there recently by the holes out in the...

Some things are worth more than GOLD... Rich with history St Augustine was very good to me a few years ago... Although I didn't get any silver pieces of eight that season... I did manage a few nice buckles that were scattered along the beach that day.... These buckles came from the 1715 Fleet...

Had a chance to hunt with Dad today.... He is slowing down these days as he is getting closer to 82 yrs old.... Wish we had those days back from yesteryear, when we both would be out in the fields for 10 + hours and think nothing of not eating or drinking at all for the entire day... I miss...

Over this past Winter I had made some nice finds. I have had some of you asking about this one lately... It had a Whydah Bird on the outside of the cover of all things... I hope you enjoy this video as much as I did finding the goodies inside...Happy Hunting...

:omg: Met up with a few guys yesterday... Some old, some new.... Started out with breakfast in another state, and made some chit chat and a plan of attack... Headed to the water and changed our mind on that area quickly because of all the sand... Went a mile up the road, and turned out to be...

thumbsup01Well I have been waiting to do this area for about a year now... The last time we were there it was Winter and about 25 degrees....I figured since everything was sanded in... It was time to think hard about areas that I haven't touched in quite a while... My buddy Leprechaun got Gold...

:happy: There were very few targets today...it was cold, windy and raw this morning.... Met a friend there at the sanded in area...YUCK I hate sand...Got into the water and went at it.... We didn't stay to long may be an hour or so... A few small old pins for our labor... Got this EYE Ring...

Went back for more again tonight... Had to wait for that tide to recede a bit but it was worth the wait... Wanted to be the first there... It was slow going at first then a sterling religious medal out of the hole and into the pouch... Lots of trash today and then The GOLDEN pig popped his head...

Went back to the new old place today, and sure enough we were all by ourselves... My buddy found a gold bracelet on top of the rocks just walking... It took me just a matter of 10 minutes of dig time to score the 1940 wedding band... quite a bit of clad showed up today, and then ring number 2...

First of all, I don't want people thinking that this happens all the time, and on all forums... It's just an FYI for some newer guys... Well as some of you know I haven't been posting in the past few weeks ( On Purpose ) I was being stalked....Some people were actually trying to locate me on the...

Three weeks ago, I found what I thought was a suspender clip....WRONG.... Although I knew it was old....I just put it into the brass goodies and didn't think much about it anymore... Today after a long day at the beach, I was getting silvers and a few small trinkets... It was when I was on my...
