    Gorgeous in Green!! (I know this is an ATP forum, but you're gonna enjoy this!)

    It's 5:00 am, Sunday morning. I've just sat down in my detector room with a tall, cold glass of OJ, fired up the computer to check the forum for posts and I hear: "Daddy, is that you?" "Wha..huh??" "Daddy, it's Baby." "Oh hi Baby, it's been a long time since you called me Daddy" "Daddy, I...

    What's a man gotta do.....

    to scoop some dadgum gold!! My gold drought continues in spite of all my efforts. I've walked, scooped and dunked myself all in the quest, but still I dwell in the Land of Nada, at least as far as gold goes. I'll start with a hunt on Monday. I arrived at the lake by 7:00 am and was in the water...

    Slim pickin's and the bling still eludes me!!

    I headed to the lake Sunday morning with just one detector, the AT Gold. I usually carry at least 3, but I was going all out with the ATG, no switch-a-roo mid hunt like I am known to do. It was a great day in the water, just no GOLD. I did scoop a dollar sign pendant, but it's a junker. Here's...

    Splish-Spash, I was huntin' in the lake..

    All upon a Friday morn, Rub-a-Dub.....awww, forget it!! I think I'm having some kind of flashback to the '60's. Oh well, let's get back to the 21st century, shall we!! I headed to the lake early yesterday morning with visions of gold rings a-plenty dancing thru my imagination. That's the only...

    And the Itsy-Bitsy....

    Spider fell from my scoop today!! Really not so itsy-bitsy. It's a 925 silver earring that weighs in at 6.1 grams. Pretty heavy for a spider and an earring too. I spent about 3 hrs. in the water this morning, using the AT Gold w/5 x 8 coil and Grey Ghost Ampbian headphones. I'm really enjoying...

    Grey Ghost Ampbian phones, waterproof Propointer and more!! Part II

    I hit the local little lake this morning, wanting to give my AT Gold with the new Grey Ghost Amphibian waterproof 'phones a tryout. Neither one disappointed!! I love the new 'phones, nice and clear. Here's a pic of my latest setup. I added a piece of Noodle to my sifter to hold my scoop when...

    Gray Ghost Amphibian phones, waterproof Propointer and more!!

    loaded up the car Friday morning with 2 AT Pro's and a SeaHunter Mark2 and headed for the lake to give my new GreyGhost Amphibians and waterproofed Propointer a good try-out. The conditions at the lake were great!! No wind, thus no waves, and a nice hot Texas sun beaming down, what more could...

    A small white box came in the mail today...

    Hmmmmm...looks harmless enough...... [attachment 269743 0_box.jpg] Better open 'er up and see what we've got here..... [attachment 269744 0_cut.jpg] Appears to be something gray inside, better drag it out into the light and have a good look..... [attachment 269745 0_get.jpg] It's my new Gray...

    I planned to pop a little clad today...

    but when I got to the site I had decided to try for a bit of clad, I ended up digging relics. At first, I thought something was wrong with the ATP. With the Iron Disc set at 35, it sounded like a bag of Orville Redenbacher in the microwave thru my Grey Ghosts. So I swithced on Iron Audio and...

    It was a good week until...... Part 1 of 2

    I had to make a trip to the Emergency Room yesterday with "Scoop Foot"!!! Too much scooping this past week has left me with one bad hoof. They x-rayed it and nothing is broken in there, but I must have strained or stretched something in ther cuz it hurt REALLY bad. I had to use a cane just to...

    It was a good week until...... Part 2 of 2

    continued...... Thursday, Independence Day, Found me without any water to get into as all the spots were filled to capacity with contributors, bless their drunken heathen miscreant hearts!! So, I headed out to do some dirt digging at some soccer fields. Nothing really great, but I did find a...

    Nickles and Nitros!!

    For those of you that might not know what a "Nitro" is, I found one today and it was a screamer. They call them a Nitro because when you see them in your scoop, you get a major adrenaline rush because it looks soooooooo good and you think you're gonna need a Nitro pill for your heart. Then it's...

    A horse is a horse.....

    unless it's a rubber seahorse, of course!! I hit the lake early this morning, trying to beat the heat and contributors. Here's the take for 2 1/2 hours in the water. [attachment 269080 0_sealoot.jpg] I eyeballed the seahorse, I can't resist small toys so I put it in my pouch. One on my kitties...

    The Ugly Twin emerges!!!

    I got an early start this morning, ready to get out and do some detecting. For the last 2 days, I've been on taxi duty, having to take BCM to the doctor to have her stitches removed from her forehead and ferrying the family kitties to the vet. So I was at the lake by 7:00 an amd ready to hit...

    They'll be digging up some good relics, I hope!!

    I'm still hittin' a few!!

    Not many, but a few. And not great, but OK!! The best part is getting out and enjoying some excellent water time and the little bit of loot is an added bonus. Here's my take from last Friday. Nothing exceptional but that's fine by me!! [attachment 268865 0_cladcrap.jpg] I fared a bit better...

    Where the heck is it?? Do you have it?? I can't find it!!

    Any GOLD that is!! And I NEED to find some, I mean really NEEEEED to find some. My gold drought continues just the same as our rain drought here in Texas. But luckily, I'm still managing to scoop a little silver. I hit the lake early this morning with my ATPro/5 x 8 coil/Plugger straight...

    It is still Dog Days around here!!

    I headed out yesterday morning with the intent of hunting a spot that has given me some pretty good finds in previous years. It's been 3-4 years since I've hit this spot, so I figured it should be good for a goodie or two. [attachment 268324 0_pond2.jpg] But after a stroll around and taking a...

    I'm getting closer to the GOLD!!

    Tuesday saw me hanging around the house, having to assist BigCatMomma after her Mohs surgery for a skin cancer removal. Being fair skined, she never gets in the sun, but it got her anyway. Use the sunscreen guys!! Anyhow, inspired by Johns new sifter, I decided to put one togeter using what I...
