Hi Guys (and gals) I recently bought an Excal 1000. We live on an inland lake in northwestern Michigan. From what I read here most of you are on the ocean. Do any of you search inland lakes, rivers, streams, public beaches, boat launches? These are the areas available to me up here. Also we live only 2 miles from Lake Michigan, so have those beaches etc. Just wondering if techniques are the same and if there are those who have been successful in our area.
So far I am learning the detector, experiencing some frustration but also finding some change, odds and ends and getting motivated to get a big hit soon. I have to figure out how fast to move, how to pin point targets to reduce digging. How to discriminate materials etc.
No clubs up here that I know of so I am learning all on my own - the slow way. I always appreciate suggestions and help.
