Couple Of Hours At Low Tide, Slim Pickings

Took the Excalibur out today. Not too many targets in the wet sand and the water was pretty darn cold, so I mostly stayed out of it but for a little shallow wading. Soon.
But I did get a killer signal off the silver butterfly pendant. Tried real hard to find the chain, no luck.

Glad to see a big chunk o' silver saved the day, Mike. Conditions are much the same here in the water...few targets, and they're mostly zincs and pulltabs....strange, 'cause there were a few nice holes..either got totally worked by other hunters, or just nothing to provide to begin with...had some hope when I ran into a string of crusted coins, but no jewelry came out...little over a week ago.

Yeah, things have been pretty bleak here but they're picking up slowly. I got my first nice tourist gold ring last summer on May 29th. I know it was a tourist because they were here from New York and put an ad in the paper. I subsequently returned it. Things were looking up real good by that time and were very steady since, so I'm thinking we'll be rolling in it soon.
You Floridians (like my sister in West Palm) have it good and bad. On the one hand, you have folks in the water for most of the year (depending on WHERE in Florida you are) but then there is SO MUCH beach that the goodies are really spread out. We have a highly concentrated bunch of goodies here. Like confined to roughly about 60 blocks. And when the targets start piling up, it's hard to go 10 feet without finding a coin and I rarely go out without finding SOME kind of jewelry. Yup, from late may to about late September things are smokin' around here. It's been a long winter and I'm ready for it. <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">
