Would be willing to travel out that way, especially in the winter when the ground is rock hard ! PM me if you ever want to hunt!

Sounds good, I do a lot of beach hunting. Only dry sand because my Garrett dosn't like the wet stuff.

I have a bow but shotgun is usually what I use. Early goose coming up and I can't wait. Just got a slug barrel for this coming season. My buddy is a diehard bowhunter, after this season I think i'll get more into it.

This page has all the makings of a nice group beach hunt!
We should pick a date, pick a beach and go find some gold!
I don't mind driving so any beach is ok with me.
Whadda you guy's think?
massguy, I live in N. Reading and work in Peabody, Let me know if you want to get together for a hunt, same goes for deer season.

well if you guys want to hit a small old beach off 93 near Boston that might have been picked clean then lets go,,,, I say picked clean because I never doubt where other diggers may have gone.
Ron,, I see you have a MX sport? I just bought one and now have a bigger coil with it,, its a hot little bugger maybe you'll have some tips for me.

Hey Tajue, Good choice with the MX Sport, A very good and capable machine.
I only hunted fresh water with mine but have had decent success with it.
One thing I can say is it's super deep, in the water I found no need to run it hot,
Sens. At 4 or 5 goes plenty deep and remains very stable.
Let me know if you want to get together for a beach hunt sometime,
I was hoping we'd get a few takers here but I haven't heard from anyone.

Id be willing to take a trip east on A weekend. We could pick a freshwater lake and meet there. I have had horrible success in the water, I have not found any spots that consistently pump out keepers. I think the beaches around me are detected quite often. Keep me posted in the coming weeks!

I'd like to say lets wait for it to cool a little because of the crowd but the beach I'm thinking of I don't think anyone swims at... I also have a permit to drive out on Plymouth Beach but I have a xtra cab Tacoma so I can only fit so many. I also know of some pretty good freshwater beaches only access would be canoe/kayaks..
also have a huge park where my inexperience using beep & digs I pulled silver quarters so place might not be older than the 50's who knows..
as for the salty beach,, maybe this sunday? I can PM people who are really serious more details to keep it private nit that this is a secret spot,

I'd be down most likely, would be neat if someone had a wooded permission on some old ground for this fall/winter.

I love my MXS, though I don't use it as often as I should. Like you, I don't run sens over 5. In salt water, anything over 5 overloads.

This Sunday won't work for me unfortunately, but I do agree on waiting until it gets a little cooler. People are packed on the beaches here until sundown. I was going to go out for a quick hunt a few days ago and I coulldn't believe the people! I'm also game for a night hunt, I have plenty of headlamps for everyone. No one cares around here, I've done it plenty of times. Just bring bug spray if there isn't a breeze.
I'm wondering the same thing, lots of old farmhouses around my area.
