These are two frog ring photos and the clad from my last trip to the river. The ring is sterling silver, I was really surprised. I went to the river today and the water is over the sandbar and I really wanted to put on my waders and try my luck for an hour at least, but it was too cold and after the confusion last week I was afraid of hypothermia. Plus, I had to make about 5 stops before I got to the river and I was just too tired. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is week. HH.
One reason I wanted to hunt the sandbar when the water came back in was that I have learned it's easier to hunt in the water than it is on dry land. No stooping or kneeling, just scoop, sweep the coil and move on to the next target. I hit the spring yesterday and it was a total bust. They piled so much dirt around the spring, any coins are probably buried underneath 4-5 feet of dirt. I do want to hit the spring itself with my scoop when it warms up and try my sniper coil in all metal in some of the tight places and stumps on land. I used my 9.5 imaging coil yesterday and it kept getting tangled up. I found a shotgun shell, large square piece of metal and some type of clamp. I will return tho, I have just began to metal detect. lol
