When I waded out with my Dual Field at low tide this AM the water was dead calm, but after a couple of hours of hunting a fairly brisk breeze started out of the east/s.east. The air temp was in the mid-40s F.
The 42Degree F. (surface temp) water kicked up enough wave action to make hunting a bit of a struggle with the sifter bouncing around creating a moving target for my heavy scoop load of sand and stone.
After 3.5 hours, so as to avoid burn-out, I called it a day. I had found 57 targets and recovered 55 including 22-coins (none silver or old), 1-brass arcade token, 1-.22 Cal. bullet, 4- fishing sinkers and the rest was misc. junk.
No gold or silver, but it was great getting out in the water again and next time out I won't have to dig these targets!

PS 22 hours on the Dual Field batteries so far and the signal is still strong!
