More Small D2 Gold

[Dan(NM)]

I hit a lake 20 minutes from my house today for about 3 hours. The water level is about 1/2 of what it was 2 yrs ago, so, I'm hunting the dry areas. The spot where I took the picture would have been under 3-4 ft of water normally. We've been in a severe drought situation since 2021. I was using the D2 in a modified General mode and was digging everything from 28 and up with the 9" coil. Nothing is very deep and I'm able to recover the targets by simply scraping an inch or 2 of sand and rocks off the hardpan. I ended up digging a lot of trash, but, that's just the way it is at these spots. I ended up with 3 rings, 1 10K 1.3 grammer, 2 junkers and a silver earring. The weather in Central Texas is perfect for hunting right now. Thanks for looking.

Nice diggins.
Man that's a lot of trash. Great work.
I wonder if there's more buried treasure under those boulders in the back ground ?

That area turned into a lead weight graveyard, I dug for over an hour around that spot and only dug lead lol.

And that's usually Exactly where the gold is.
I wonder if those boulders did create a kinda bore hole as the waves worked around them.
If I could move them. I'd dig down at least 2-3 ft.
All the lead tells me to go down under.
Good Luck ...
