2nd day at fish lake beach brings another ring , but not gold not silver

[GunnarMN]

today , I got out to the fish lake beach in chisago county MN I can say it was really enjoyable , found another ring but this time it was not silver or gold but copper with enameling , and some cladd, I really like the Sunspot scoop ,its not heavy in the water . the hard thing is swinging the shaft thru the water it will only let you swing so fast, I need a length wise fin over the shaft maybe this would fis it so i just went slow but for some things you need a fast swing speed and this I was not able to do . I can see the advantige of a Infinium . It requiers a slow swing to be at its best and deepest just perfect for water, but the GT still did well lots of big snails 1.5" to 2.5" the water was clear ,and a few good targets came out nice not to have to stoop down to dig , but its swinging that is hard you just have to let it go slow the water dictates this [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89uuftKcKmc&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL[/video]

Gunnar,

Cool hunt! Thanks for recording the event. How did you end up hooking the control box? Did it fit in the inner pouch? You found some nice jewelry Glad you were able to get out and enjoy a metal detecting session in cooler weather. On the way home from work today, I had the air conditioning on lol it was humid and in the low 80's. P.S. Looks like a nice little beach to hit up too. Hope you can get back and check it out some more. -Super dimeman

Jim , the hip waders worked great , no leaks stayed warm I had the control box on the shaft but i have it extended so it was out of the water and i used the pouch to put the finds in Joab 1999 I am not concerned with this spot being known all the detectorist hear know of it , but i do have another spot I will not reveal, in fact that all i can say about it , I can tell jim he cant get out hear from connecticut ya I cant get to this spot I have no car my freind was off work and drove me out thear and waited for me to finish 22 mile one way it is a nice beach and i like the sand scoop but i did run ito some targets that went thru the holes and i kept chasing after them no crockadiles as the water is to cold
