Payin my dues

An undisputed fact of treasure hunting is that one must pay ones dues. We do that by cleaning the unwanted debris from our beaches and in other ways such as offering help or suggestions to newcommers to our "sport". The past two evenings have found me cleaning junk from the water . After 25 years of working this areas beaches there is amazingly still an unbelievable amount of old junk to dig. I'm talking small brass strap gadgets that used to be on swim cap straps etc. and lots of other "period" junk. Of course the 1929 class ring-14K is natures way of saying Thank You!!

Keep payin your dues. Maybe ol' mom nature will thank you too!

hey cupajo, your right about paying your dues! I call it building karma. the more junk and broken glass I throw in my pouch the more my karma builds untill finally what goes around comes around!
 
Trash never belongs on the beach.....treasure goes in my pocket. Those are the rules...:thumbup:
 
Crackerjuan, from what I can tell they are from burning pallats on the beach. They are a real nuisance aren't they?
 
Yes, cleaning the beaches also has other rewards. You can get into beaches that they let no other outsiders. I have been in 2 so far and am hopefully getting into more. diving also lets me seee the broken bottles and pieces of glass that I also remove. More ambasadorship to our hobby.
 
Way to go scubadetector!!!

I've thought we could sometimes defuse aggressive behaviour on "our turf" by assuring the aggressor we are only protecting their safety by removing all this "HARMFUL TRASH"!!!

I witnessed one rather tipsy lady nearly sobbing at my concern for the wellfare of her grandchildren and that effort I was expending to protect them!!

HH. Friends,
