Marc from what I can gather about sniping is, you go down to the beach after some beach errosion but no bed rock is showing and dig a pit.You start sifting or run your detecor over your digging's and in the hole you started.You dig all the way down to the bed rock until you can't locate anything else.After your done fill in the pit and start a new one.HH,Tom

I believe the Half Moon Bay boys and girls and other area treasure hunters go down when some of the bedrock is showing, move boulders and dig down to the bedrock. Sounds like too hard of work for this old bodyDan3

Hi Dan,
Actually the Treasure Hunting boys and girls up in the Half Moon Bay area are given gunny sacks by MT and he lines them all up, very late at night or very early in the morning, along the beach and they start very slowly shoulder to shoulder walking and yelling, "here snipe snipe snipe snipe," and if they are really lucky they just might catch one of those beach snipes. I hear that they are really good eating and some folks will give you their gold and silver for them.

Are you sure OT? I thought you grabbed the snipe and made him tell you where he hid his gold and silver. Sorta like capturing a Leprechaun and making him tell you were he keeps his pot of gold... ;D And you can threaten them with the BBQ snipe burger recipe if they won't tell ya!
