I see on your photos it says things like NUT or my NUT for the day...what is NUT ???(newbie to the site)
 
I believe he is using the term in the context of a squirrel, gathering his nut or nuts. As in his "haul" for the day. "Here's the nut..."

Translation: Here's a picture of the crap I found.

Other terms:

Nitro - Junk jewelry, though when you first see it, you think it's the real deal and for a moment you have to grab for the nitro...as in having a heart attack.

Diggers - Any fine and nubile members of the female persuasion who are willing to wrap their hands around Max's scoop and pose for the camera.

Surflane - The wet sand at low tide

Surf Church - Sunday morning mass in the surflane...sacrificing to the surfgod

Bricks - Relentlessly pounding surf,usually heavy with whitecaps. "Rough as bricks in the lane today..." Or a picture of the surf with the caption "Bricks..."

There's more...I'm sure a few others can add one or two.
 
I too, often wondered what Nitro stood for. Thanks .
I think there is another one CZ. I have seen it appear several times relating to gems in the jewelry.
Max's pictures tell a story all by themselves.Thank you Max.Hope you got your camera working.....I do believe I read something about a mishap.
 
Hey Mike, I'm glad you gave the definition of those detecting terms. Like DaleW, I don't always know what they mean, and thought it idiotic to ask. But then, I'm an Aussie far far away, with terms of our own......!

Actually, that one isn't his. CZ stands for "Cubic Zirconia" which is a fake but often attractive gemstone substitute. Usually diamonds, it also comes in other colors and substitutes for other stones as well.

Since you have such a good start Mike, let's keep it going, combine them and make a glossary we can post when requested. Here's another as I understand it:

Bling - an elaborately diamond or gem studded jewelry find.
 
I think bling can refer to ANY jewelry, particularly gold. And most definitely gold AND diamonds, for sure.

Bling-Bling - Includes any and all gold and diamond jewelry, with emphasis on diamond jewelry in particular but also strongly tied to gold chains and MULTIPLE gold chains, AKA "Mr. T starter-kits". :)
 
Thanks Mike for all the explanations.
And always thought bling bling was the sound that a cash register made or is that supposed to be Cah ching. lol
 
I put down my gun in 94',used to love getting out on the prairie before dawn, Beautiful! Too many Liberal politicians and their gun laws, too many guys drinking till 2 am and hunting at 4 am (not kewl).
Amazing to hear 6,000 wild geese greeting the dawn on a 1 acre sluice in Saskatchewan.
Nuf Said,
