Hit the water around 7am, hunted till 8:30 and had ONE repeatable signal... a Corona cap. I have a feeling that all the sand that washed off the beach the other night is sitting out there in the waist deep water I was hunting in. Headed in for breakfast, but before I left the water I got a great look at a couple of dolphins / porposes playing about 100- 150 yards out in the water. I had no idea that sharks came within 10' of the shore, saw a real nice 3' one NOT a regular fish, Not a school of fish etc, and another large " something " about 50 yards out that moved parallel to the beach from left to right as far as I could see, without ever breaking the surface. It was a good 6 ~ 8' long, and solid, not a school... I figured it was time to head up and eat. Oh, I am not one to saa a shark in every fish or large group of schooling fish, and the little fish were all around me, till the bigger fish came along and ate them... wonder what was following the bigger fish???? I'll be back out there after a " honey dew shopping trip " HH all. Joe
 
There is a lot of sand moving around out there, since I left this morning a sand bar has formed about 50' out and is almost breaking the surface. Is there any point to working around where the new sand is? I would think that nothing but light "junk" would be deposited there, if anything. Should I be working between the bar and shore, or the outside of the bar, or just hit the wet sand area? HH Joe
 
Joe, try the slopes on eitherside of the bars, in the guts between the bars and BY ALL means check the wetsand. In the wetsand, try some up and backs, till you find some coins and the really slow down and grid it. Somewhere targets will show, but you gotta mix it up.
 
Hit both sides of the bar, hit the area between the shore and the bar HARD, gridded it SLOW, all I was hitting was iron nulls. Every now and then the Excal would go off like a monkey playing a caliope, but nothing repeatable, and even those ended in the iron null. I ran into a local guy moving through waist deep and he had the same to report. He was running a Whites that had its box under the cuff and knobs facing the rear, I am not familiar with Whites machines. Hey, I did get a pair of sunglasses... well, most of them. HH Joe
