As the wind settled down the gentle swells flattened a bit making digging and searching a lot easier for Mr. Dual Field, Diablo and myself.
Even so, the deep sands are hiding the really good stuff which I am convinced is there.
The tide was low enough about 1:30 and since it is dark here a little after 4:30 I didn't waste any time starting at 1:35PM.
I worked the shallows parallell to the water's edge and when I reached the east end of the beach I headed into deeper water about 75 yards out from the water's edge.
This is my third hunt here and I have removed enough easy targets that now I have to teally search for a signal.
I've removed maybe a dozen really deep nickels that only gave a hint of a signal in the three hunts there.
I'll change my Dual Field batteries and see if that helps as most of the targets are deep in the sand. (So far I haven't found a bottom to it!)
Today was a clad , huge sinker, mood ring, two silver dimes day!
