Have been doing alittle detecting in an area that has drew some attention from another detectorist...It was great finding someone to talk to about the hobby and looked forward seeing him in future trips to this area..He runs an e-trac with all the bells and whistles and was quite interesting to talk to..I returned to this place and I noticed he was popping holes (not covering)and leaving obvious tracks that he was there......I'm fairly new to the hobby but I know you respect the property you hunt..This is what makes a dectorist unwelcome at public places...Please lets all practice this manner and keep our hobbies alive....
