15X12 SEF coil

Have any of you got any time in with the GT and the 15x12 sef coil ? I bought one a few weeks ago and have yet to use it in anger. I have just fitted it to the minelab straight shaft and got myself a chest mount harness so I am geared to go. Only had a quick try in my back garden but it seems to be finding things ok. Hopefully I might have some finds to post in the next few days - would be great to hear if any of you have any experience of this coil with the GT ?

I'm finding the coil but all the ones I have found are for the Explorer or the Quattro. I havn't seen any for the Sovereign.....Help....:shrug:
 
Oh, fair enough ! As soon as I manage to get out and try it I will post back on here - if any of you beat me to it , please do the same. I think it should work really well but would be nice to hear it , if not see it. :biggrin:
 
You can also get em for the GP series and whites dfx,mxt etc
 
Don, from what i'm hearing, the coil is available for the Sov. Problem is finding it.:shrug:
 
Hi Bill, you still in Indiana?? Yeah Ive chked the big top kellyco they only have them for Explorer/Quatro. The Explorer guys are giving some good reports on this baby and I'm looking for a bigggg coil. to find a big pile. :cool: Don
 
Thinking about it - they weren't advertised here for the sovereign initially but as soon as I asked I was told that they were in stock and ready to go.
 
Yep, still stuck up here where where a beach is only a dream.LOL!I do plan on being back down in the fall some time. that is is everything goes as planned.
I hear you when you mention that "Big Pile"....I want one too.

HH, bottlebum
 
I finally managed to get out and try the SEF/GT a few days ago so as promised, here are my findings. The SEF coil seems to work really well - it has a bigger footprint than the stock 10" coil so overlapping the sweeps is much easier. The coil seemed to remain pretty stable throughout using different sensitivity settings. I recovered about 30 targets in a 4 hour session - the best of which are in the pic. The coil is a little heavier than the 10" which was obvious to me as I chest mount the control box - I dare say this will be less obvious to those that use it on the shaft. The bigger footprint also meant that pinpointing was not so straightforward but I reckon a bit of practice would help this! I was glad that for once I took along my pinpoint probe. As you can see in the pic, it is super sensitive to even the smallest of targets. I am impressed with this coil and very glad that I took the plunge. I also read a review on it recently and it said that this one or the smaller one are the ones to go for (phew!).
 
i don't water hunt but have you ever tried any of the fresh water lakes in your area. the ones around here they wouldn't let you in but i heard of some people cominfg in from out of state and sneaking in at night. said they did real well.
