Found my first silver the other day.Pretty neat looking frog; I believe the wire is silver as well. I was only able to get out there for 1.5hrs before the rain came but it was fun. It was about 4inches deep and registering between nickel/ring and screwcap but was solid and repeatable. I am using a whites eagle spectrum which I love but I really want to get a PI like the garrett sea hunter so I can detect the water.
