Summer Metal Detecting

[SHIMMER77502]

Dimeman, I feel your pain. The Houston heat and humidity is so oppressive. And with the drought we have been having this spring, the dirt has the consistency of concrete. So, I'm on Galveston Island combing the beaches at 6 a.m. That gives me about 3-4 hours of good hunting time before I begin to melt.....

Happy Hunting!

Definitely learning about pulling plugs in different conditions - best chances to leave them with a chance to live. Practicing on my yard and getting a feel for it. The heat in terms of my own sweat? Lots of water and breaks - at sometimes it feels good to sweat. Use the shade where you can - not just MDing. I'm new so haven't tried cold :frozen:weather detecting yet. I'm guessing (and have read a bunch) about being free from ticks and such in the winter - that will certainly be an advantage. Just love those perplexing tones in my ear I keep hearing.. and trying to figure them out :huh:
