Your Friend,

....ooooh, tuffy. Where do you live an' will it be fresh or salt?

Whats your budget?

 

[John D.]

I live in VA and will be hunting mostly in fresh water.

Get a Tesoro Tiger Shark.

I know this is a Garrett Forum but I cant argue with the advice. Actually I wouldnt, as I own a Tiger Shark. It is, by some accounts, the best VLF water detector going.

I also like the CZ-20, but it is clunkier IMHO

What about the Garrett SeaHunter II? Well, is a PI unit and they arent usually recommended for fresh water, because you want some discrimination. But, it would work of course, and people use it there - and it offers the chance for salt water maximization, should you go to the beach.

What about the Infinium?

Get an Infinium. It will go down 200 feet.

I will more than likely be just wading in lakes, rivers and going to the beach once or twice a year.
I really like my 1350 because I was finding coins from day one. I have never had any experience with a Tesoro, are they difficult to program?
Your Friend,
PS Thanks for the great advise over the last few months.
