the Giving Swimming Hole

[zac]

Hello,
This is my first post on Findmall, although I've been reading and learning from you all for years. found all this two days ago at a swimming hole. I had my Vibratector 730 with me but found all this stuff just eye balling. I did about ten digs in the sand and just came up with modern change and bottle caps. Its a lot of fun. It makes me feel like a kid diving for pennies in a pool.
Thanks

You found all this at one swimming hole? Wow.

Yes miffdan, all at one swimming hole in a few hours. I haven't tried to power up the iPhones yet, still drying them out.

Put the phones in a Ziploc bag of rice for a few days pulls out the moisture. HH

Thanks kam47, I've got them in a zip lock bag with silica from those packs that are in packaged food.

was this diving or snorkelling ive got the vibratector but cant seem to get deeper enough snorkelling?

Pablo9273, I was snorkeling. If your wearing a wet suit you need a weight belt to make yourself neutrally buoyant. Also get a strong non-metallic scoop so you can get your target in 1-3 scoops and check to see if it's in your scoop. This pool is only about ten feet deep. I used to go down to 30-40' free diving when I was spear fishing but all the lines scared me. I had visions of shooting a big fish and getting wrapped up in my spear line. Metal detecting is my kind of hunting these days.

thanks for the reply, I will only be using the vibratector on holidays so no wet suit, I found I can only get arms length depth, any recommendations?

 

[zac]

It all depends on the location. If your in a river, mask snorkel, screw driver (for picking between rocks), and maybe knee pads if it's rocky. Also rub some spit on the inside of your mask to reduce the fogging.

sorry worded that wrong, I meant for getting a bit deeper I will be doing sandy beaches
