I share some of my favorite metal detecting tips in this video. Also also had a surprise visit from an 89 year old man metal detecting on the beach. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwOdsoQzlGg&feature=youtu.be

Wondering if anyone knows of a list or website which lists ALL California beaches, and lists which use mechanical cleaning methods etc. I have been googling but not much solid results wise. I used to live in Huntington Beach for a while and personally know they do, quite a detailed job too.. I...

Hi, I wonder if anyone could help me. I'm going on holiday to Devon Cliffs and would like to do some detecting on Sandy Bay beach. I have permission from the Crown Estate which allows me to detect on the beach next to Sandy Bay. I was wondering if anyone had any information as to where I...

Hello, I'm a returning member who hasn't been on since 2009. I can't remember my previous name or login. I wasn't very active in the forums and I think I only posted twice. I've been metal detecting since 2007, first with a White's, then with a Minelab Explorer XS. I took a break from detecting...

So, I live pretty close to the beach here in Miami and was thinking about getting a metal detector and hunting for some treasure! My question is this, what detector would you guys advise me to start with, I really don'y want to break the bank as I don't know how much use I'll be getting from it...

Well, it took almost a year, but I finally saved enough money to buy a water machine. Thank you to flphil and DnD for the advice. I got a Garrett Infinium LS and it should be delivered tomorrow. I am so excited. Now it is scoop buying time. Last thing - have a good link to the recovery...

:wave:Hi...New to this forum and Surf Hunting but recently found an old Garrett XL500 Sea Hunter PI and I am now trying to find one of the 13 inch coils that were offered for this unit (the new Mark II coils are not compatible as I understand it)...any info about these would be greatly...

Hi all...just joined this great looking forum. I've been metal detecting since the 1970s when my dad was stationed in Germany and got a $19 Sears/Whites metal detector for Xmas. Over the years I have gone in and out of the hobby but just recently picked up an old Garrett XL500 Sea Hunter to try...

I went to the beach today and got signals all over the place, strong and ghostlike at the same time. Often repeatable, but digging resulted in nothing or the object just outright vanishing. Used the pinpointer throughout the day and it only worked when the object was within 2-4 inches as it...

Less than two weeks left until the ECRDA 2014 Beach Hunt, in Ocean City NJ. It's not too late to register for "Cinco en Mayo", either with this form, or just by meeting us at the Music Pier bright 'n early on Saturday, May 17 and Sunday, May 18. Prizes include Minelab, E-Track, & Whites V-3i...

Aloha all, My name is Dan and I am excited to be on here! I recently purchased an AT Pro and have had fun over the past couple weeks digging up coins and even a couple pieces of inexpensive jewelry :) Just wanted to say hello and put my feelers out in hopes of advice, location information and to...

Hi all, a few weeks ago my son and I found a piece of driftwood on a Delaware beach that set off the detector, and upon further examination it had at least three tiny copper nails that appear to be "square nails". I pried one out of the wood; picture of that nail and the wood itself attached...

I have been detecting for a couple years now and I am at a crossroads with my hunting. I'd like to hear from some beach/water hunters on pros/cons of beach water vs. land and parks. The parks just aren't really thrilling for me and I would like to get into beach and water hunting. Just seems...

I have a White's DFX300 which my 15 yr old grandson likes to use at the beach. He is becoming obsessed and wants to hunt for meteorites out west this summer. I have been looking at the reviews for the Bounty Hunter 505 for a xmas gift. Does anyone have some input on this?

I went to a little local beach by me today and I found this in the dry sand and I know it's nothing special but it's my first ring so I figured I would share with all of you guys you guys share so much. Thanks

Found this at the beach during high tide. WTH is it? It has a cross and someone obviously wore it on a necklace / string. Weighs 26.8 grams, doesn't stick to a magnet and not sure how to clean it up if it can be cleaned. Out of the sand it registered at 73 on the AT Pro
