How are you folks carrying your finds and tools?

I seem to be on a perpetual quest to find a pouch that best meets my personal tastes and work style. I'm curious what each of you is using (or tried) for your pouch to carry finds, tools, and perhaps garbage. Pictures would be nice from those of you who are set up to share them.
Thanks,
Royce
 
If SunRay ever starts building the leather bag they used to, these will be the ones to get. If you can find a used one too it would be nice.
These were a trash treasure bag that had a place for 2 screwdriver type probes, a place for the digging knife, 2 pouches with velco flaps for you finds and a big enough bag for the trash and still enough room for my bottle of water. These were excellent and I have mine I got back in 1996 and use it everytime out and still works as good today as it did when new, just looks a little dirtier.

I carry all my goods in a fanny bag from Wal- Mart, less than five dollars, or you can get one from the fishing department also.

I have been through many ways trying to get a setup that I liked and was comfortable. I dig alot of trash so I couldn't use any of the smaller bags. I ended up with one large bag that snaps around the waste with a leg loop to hold it in place for the trash. I just carry my digger and pinpointer in my left hand (I stop and dig often). I always wear cargo type pants / shirt so I have plenty of pockets for finds. I keep some small pill bottles in a few pockets for the finds. If I take my GPS for longer trips away from the road, I just keep it on a pouch that goes on the belt. This all works out best me and the way I detect.

The person that was making them had some health problems and not sure when and if they would be made again.
These are the best pouches I have ever seen and would be lost without mine as they are great.
Thanks for the info Butch.

I use a leather pocket(s) carpenters belt from Lowes.
Reasonable price, and multiple pockets on both sides, with web belt for digger, pinpointer, etc.
 
I use a carpenter's belt pouch. It has multiple pockets - one deep pocket for my water bottle, one medium pocket for my trash and one smaller pocket for my finds. It also has small pockets for pens/pencils (or probe). If I'm carrying my PinPointer, I just attach it to the leather belt that holds my pouch.
 
<STRONG>Royce,
I use the Jimmy Sierra Deluxe Coin Apron. I've used it for many years. It has a mesh bottom that allows the loose sand and dirt to escape. It also has a large pouch that has a divider in it. One side for goodies, the other for junk. There is also a zippered front pocket for carrying extras such as batteries, pen/pencil, small notebook, keys, soapy water filled film container for special finds, etc. Comes with it's own web belt and is very light weight. I've also included a link.
I carry my Lesch digging tool in it's sheath on the web belt of the coin apron. I use this apron for coin hunting, relic hunting and water hunting.
Hope this helps,
Otto...</STRONG>

I wish I found enough stuff to put into a special pouch. I just use my pant pockets. Guess you all out there find way more stuff then I do. Wish I could find more and once I do start finding more I'll get me one of those pouches. HH Ron Z
 
Yep, That goes for me Ron. Only need a pocket. Carry digger and Bullseye in one hand and the MXT in the other with a bottle of water in one of the pockets. I don't wear tight jeans but ususlly loose cargo type pants. Maybe these fellows are relic hunting. May need a pouch for that but for coins just the pocket is enough for me.

One of the whole ideas is to pick up the trash we dig too and this is where a good trash treasure bag comes in so handy. This will keep your hands free as you detect and if you are like me I need a screwdriver probe, and a digging knife and if you need a pinpointing probe it is hard to cary all 3. I also dig a lot of trash too while looking for the gold and some of the misc items and this is where the trash bag can hold this. Now I have seen many put their coins in their pocket too and like me I did this too only to find out I had a hole in my pocket and lost 90 % of what I found.
The SunRay bag has met all my needs with a place to put my equipment, my trash and 2 pockets for my coins that have a velco flp on them so I dont lose my finds. I can also carry my bottle of water too in my trash bag as it is big enough.
I never knew how great one of these bag would be untill I got one, now I wont be without mine.

I found just a nails pouch , clouth type works good for me, can put my Whites pin pointer in the front pocket with my coins and the trash in the rear pocket, i cut a slice inbetween the two pockets for my digger.cost about four bucks.Rick...
 
I had mine made localy (Van wa.)--3 pockets--Front has Zipper--What I like about it is I had a slot put on the pouch to hold my Lesche digger--Dont have to use the holder that came with it--DeathWind1
 
The perfect solution for me has been a backpacking pouch I found at a sporting goods shop. This particular one has two huge zippered pockets which I use for trash and treasures, two smaller zippered pockets (good for including a small hand lens, etc.), an extra strap that holds my rag that I use during retrieval, and a pocket for a water bottle. The trash pouch also holds my pinpointers. I particularly like this pack because it attaches at the waist, and I wear it in front which has proved very convenient. With my digging tool hanging on my belt, my other hand is freed up to carry my longer shovel that I use for the tougher digging.

Dan
