Nice,,I also did a lot of fresh water lakes where I live and must say did very well. In 2013 found 492.55$ in change in 2014 got me 168.55$ As far as rings,,for 2013 and 2014 got over 150,,lots of Junk rings but I had a great time,,silver rings over 50 of them,,rest was mostly all 10K with a few 14K. Not all were 10 k rings,,got many pendants that were 10 k and 1 14 K pendant. I can hardly wait for 2015. I have a 37' fifth Wheel but find it to complicated to go from one place to another if only being in a certain area for 1 or 2 days so I purchased recently a T@B teardrop trailer.
Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy new year. I answered on this post because I also was very intrigued about the ATX Most of my pendants came with out a chain,,I have been using Minelab Excal 2 with a 10'' coil,,can't get the chains so I also purchased an ATX Deepseeker package,,will give that a try in 2015
