Loving my new excall II!!!

[River-Rat]

These are my finds so far this year, been out about 20 hours. I've been hunting in the rivers and channels for the most part. The sand is almost thawed enough to dig deeper. The lakes are still ice covered. My favorite find this year is the clover pendant I found on St. Patricks day. That was a bit ironic I thought. While at the beach a man from the Ludington Daily News came up to me and said he was taking pictures and wanted my permission to put my picture in the paper. I showed him the clover I found and told him I wasn't sure if it was three or four leaf because of all the sand on it. I guess he figured a four leaf sounded better for the paper. Made the front page!! You can see the snow fences in that picture. Yesterday I went to Stoney Lake to hit the channel there, guess what, a man from the Oceana Herald Journal asked me if he could put my picture in that paper. That one doesn't come out until Wednesday. I know the kids will have a good laugh when they see me in my wetsuit and shorts!! LOL I'm glad I bought the excal II and didn't go the cheaper route. One question, anyone know what the yellow, red, and black thing is? It's under the watch in the picture. It looks like it has watch batteries or something on the ends. Is it something for a security guard making rounds? Anyway, Happy Hunting

Quite a collection of treasures RR. Sorry, can't help on the ID
of the item. Maybe the Luck of the Irish is upon you and the clover
just confirms it. HH Gold Nuggets

Thanks, It's going to snow and rain here in michigan the next couple of days. 2 to 4 inches so they say. Maybe the inland lakes up my way will be thawed by the 4th of July!! LOL. Another person said that thing was for cars at a car dealership. Ya learn something new everyday. found some clad, a dog whistle and a 1950's whiskey bottle today. Somebody is selling the same one on ebay for $24.99. Guess I need to pay more attention to the bottles I see.

The picture is a bit small, but they look similar to releases used for trolling with downriggers or planer boards.
