1st time at the beach

[Vern2sjc]

Well, went out this AM to San Clemente beach by the pier. Now I know what the pull tabs sound like. way to many at the beach & aluminum twist caps also. Found 91 cents in clad for the two hrs that I spent there. will try Doheny State Park tomorrow morning. HH Vern2sjc

Try going UNDER the peir. I have had luck there. It's been a couple of years since I have been down there. The beaches there are pretty pounded as you are discovering.

Good luck Vern,
Is this with the new detector? Just keep trying different places and different techniques and you will soon figure out how to get the good stuff. I think the key is to not get discouraged easily. I am looking forward to you posts, JimClick

[Vern2sjc]

Yes It's with the new detector and I'm having fun with it. had a few looky lous' ask if I've found anything yet. I answer them and they are on their way. thanks for the support Jim and I keep posting my finds s they come along. HH Vern2sjc

Vern, Might have to play hookie on Wednesday, next week if you are still planning on hitting Newport Beach. Keep me posted on your plans and Iwill see what I can arrange, maybe I can drag Zman along, I'm sure he will be interested. Will send you a private Email when I see what is down the road for next week. GaryC/SanBdno.

Dig EVERY signal at the beach that is conductive(positive)
The pull tabs and foil you are passing my been gold rigs with diamonds.

The beach has a higher concentration of this than almost any place else that one cn hunt at.....

Well Vern2sjc it sounds like you were in the right place.
All those pull-tabs and bottle cap mean is the other guys disc them out or don't dig every signal. Clean them all out and go over the area again. Thats the way to find good stuff. I once followed a guy that had one of those detectors that tell you what it is before you dig.
He would get a signal and call back to me bottle cap, or foil, or pull-tab. At the end of the beach we compared our finds. He had .78 cents in mostly pennies. I had a handfull of Pull-tabs, a handfull of bottle caps, No foil,
$9.32 in change (only two pennies) and a large silver man's swing ring that was stuck inside a bottle cap!
I use a simple beep and dig whites surf PI Pro.
If beach hunting is done right there should be no signals left when you leave(and of course a pocket full of gold).

Hi guy's
I hate to tell you this, but one moronic idiot not satisfied with free information had got into my website and messed it up for me. Sorry, guy's I have deleted my webiste. It got to be Number one in google with all the good information I had there.
I hope the hosts who's server it was he attacked not me find out who did this.... If they do i will personally name and shame him for you. all the best alan hassell
