You had a good day John. Skull and crossbones is spooky and mother of pearl is a pretty ring. I managed a couple hours at the river this morning but was under pressure to get back and found only 5 pennies and tons of 22 casings, pop tops, etc. On the bright side, my sifter worked beyond my wildest expectations. I was supposed to be back at 2 pm to meet someone and then they didn't show. I believe if I had more time I could have found something good. It was good to be back dirt fishing even tho I didn't find anything, but I believe it's been so long since my last trip I've forgotten how to detect. HH.
