:tesoro:Going outside the box can pay off

I hit the beach yesterday. I was unsure how much I would find since the beach was public, in the middle of nowhere, and had been hunted extremely hard since the last swimming season. After almost two hours I had only hit 2 signals, a penny and a pull tab, I knew it would be tough, butt dang. As I looked around i saw a playground and decided to check it out. To show how hard of hunting it was in the play ground I found half of a pull tab not even the whole pull tab...HALF. I noticed rain had taken away all the foot prints in the sand since summer except under the wooden structure roughly 3 feet tall. I decided most people wouldnt even try getting under that so I figured what the hell. Immediatly I find a couple of coins more than I had found in the whole 2 hours. I know 3 pennys on the day is pathetic and terrible but it goes to show if you are willing to do what others aren't you are more likely to find that one desired piece that is left.

At lease you got out.
One of those days I'm sure things will pick up soon for you.

Remember every penny missed is a target someone else missed. I have had more than one day when the finds were scarce ( a penny or two) and yet I would walk away with a ring

I know i will find more once the water warms up and i can get to deeper parts. Also, a tiger shark is on the way instead of the old Cutlass, a land detector made by tesoro about 20 years ago, will help the targets keep coming.

Hi Prodigy; I admire your determination. Keep it up. I'm sure you will. PEACE:RONB

I read in the Tesoro forum that the Tiger Shark is not a very good detector in the salty water. Are you going to be using it for just the dry or do you know something about them that is a secret? I am interested in that particular detector but I need something that will really work on the CA. wet dense black sand....

Thanks for the inspiration. I hunt exactly the same~Out-the-box

I know that the tiger shark is good for what im doing in Indiana for freshwater lakes and stuff. However in salt the best bet is the sand shark. Although the sand shark, if you want to stay with tesoro, has ZERO discrimination but does go deeper than the tiger shark. The tiger shark will work in salt although not as well as the sand shark.
