Hi, looking for advice on what detector(s) may work better for detecting larger steel objects under a 6-12" silt layer on the sea floor, such as helix anchors & moorings. Typical water depth is 10-30'.
Longer detection distance & depth is definitely a plus. Ability to detect small objects like coins is not a concern. The metal items I need to search for are typically at least 5-10 lbs or more. I work mainly in fresh water. Typically what I'm finding is mild or galvanized steel, but also some stainless steel.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Curious if one of the less expensive $150 Quest detectors would work as well for this use case as the more expensive ones like from JW Fishers.
