First ring with the Sting! :crazy:

[R-n-R Magnolia SpringsAla]

Yehaaawww!!!!!! I had my doubts about this machine after my brackish water hunt last sun. Now I have NO doubt! this things a vaccum. Went to a local swimming hole after a 10 hour day at work. Got all my junk out of the car, GB'ed the SR2 and away I went.
Recovered 94 pennys, 2 dimes, one nickle, assorted crap and one very nice gold ring 10k 3.1g w/ diamonds!! Yeah!!! I was hitting targets left and right. Just about wore myself out. That's prob the best time I've had detecting in a very long time. It was like hunting somewhere no one had ever hunted before. I think I'm addicted to waterhunting.
I've also learned to hunt downstream now cause the current was flipping the coil up and was making recovery interesting going upstream. It seemed like i got into a low spot or maybe it was one of the cuts the surf guys always talk about??. I really started hitting targets in a turn in the river/stream where the center was fast and the edges were slow. Heck i got 5 zincs in one scoop! Already looking forward to hunting again!

Go jump in a stream!

Is that some kind of foam around the plastic tub? If so what kind and how many. Looks perfect of water hunting.

All the best

Thanks, That foam piece is called a "fun noodle" or something like that, they sell em at the dollar store, works good. I used 2 ($1.50 each).

Congrats on the ring, and all the other finds! I like your floating strainer basket! Hey if it works, Beale.

 

[R-n-R Magnolia SpringsAla]

Hey Beale, It does work for about $7 and 10-15 mins can't complain. I may build something more professional later. hh

And you can bet, if you found that concentration of targets, there must be more gold in there!
