OK, sliding egg sinker and bead above the barrel swivel, Gamakatsu bait holder hook. If using night crawlers, use a worm threader. For big fish use small bluegill as bait. View my newest video on what fish are below the dam. Good luck 🤠👍🍀

Another thing that helps seal connections... vaseline on the threads before you screw them together. I use it on my ham radio cable connections to ensure threaded connections dont get water in them even though the connectors are rated as waterproof.
@johnnyhiett
@johnnyhiett 3 ай бұрын
Although that could work in a pinch, it is not reccomended in general. These waterproof type electrical connections often have rubber or silicone O-rings or other parts that would be potentially damaged by petroleum jelly. One should refer to the manufacturers reccomendations . The best product to use is a very thin coating of pure Silicone dielectric grease. (Grease of any kind at the beach traps sand.) Like automotive spark plug boots use. Available at auto parts stores. Electronics often use connectors pre coated or packed with this grease. Outdoor 75 ohm coax connectors are an example. Also the submersible boat trailer lighting connectors on vehicles. Best of luck ! 🍀🏝

when you are using the 900 in the ocean, what do YOU set your Iron Bias and swing speed at?
@johnnyhiett
@johnnyhiett 4 ай бұрын
Great info to ask about! 😎 That is about the first thing in the video at the one minute mark. I list the important settings onscreen. Recovery Speed = 6 (on land I sometimes run 5) , Iron (FE) Bias = 9 , which is the highest reject setting. This completely eliminates Corona crown bottlecaps and tent stakes which are eveywhere! Modelo caps may show an ID since they are wrapped in Aluminum foil. My testing is conclusive that this does not hurt high tone signal ID or depth. Best of luck !🍀☠️💍🏖

I hear ya 👍 but the 900 and the 800 (as well as the Simplex) have all been washed this way for years with zero problems. It is low pressure water even though it may appear to be strong. Nowhere on the islands has good water pressure. Best to go easy spraying into the speaker. Ive washed the 900 off about 400+ times. The salt and crud that stays on is very sticky. It doesn't come off easily. Sometimes I use mild soap. Good luck🍀👍💍🏖

@johnnyhiett
@johnnyhiett 5 ай бұрын
OK. Since the 800 and 900 both have 40khz mode, that's what finds the gold chains. The Multi setting Beach Mode 2 uses will favor high frequencies like 40khz. A single link in the chain is what a machine reacts to. The size of the link determines if the chain can be detected. So select Beach 2 mode. The first thing you have to do is be sure to go into (Notch) Accept-Reject and make sure you are Accepting ID 1 and 2. Gold Chains will often be these low numbers. You can toggle "all metal" with the horse shoe if you want. I'd start with this: Beach 2 mode Noise Cancel - run it Auto by selecting it and tapping the Check Mark button. Then manually adjust Noise Cancel number on a test chain to see what setting really works best. Ground Balance 0 is OK on your sand or Auto if in the water or dry Threshold 0, it's simulated anyway Target Tone must be DP for best results!! Never bother with the other tones unless you are just doing something like shallow coin shooting. Accept all IDs above 0. Recovery speed 5 or 6. Do not vary this. The 900 corrects for it as you slow down anyway. Sensitivity from 22 to 28. I always run 28 in dry sand for depth. Usually run 22 underwater since I can't scoop deeper. Then use 28 to pinpoint. watch these Equinox 800 vs Excalibur videos Equinox 800 reads a 14K Chain in salt water and Escalibur does not kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWnbq3uFid2qiskfeature=shared Equinox 800 reads a 14K Chain in salt water kzbin.info/www/bejne/pGqZf6eNra2fns0feature=shared

Yes, when I want maximum depth (which I need because 100 other detectors have hit that park beach) I run Sensitivity 28 and ignore the chatter. I run sensitivity 22 when in the water since I can't dig deeper than 15" (zero chatter). That beach has nearby Coast Guard and FD radio towers. When after shallow fresh drops on paths, showers etc I run 15. Alternately you can switch to a single frequency mode and run 40khz with no chatter. Best of luck 🍀!

Hello! 🤠 Be certain the cables for the coil and underwater headphones are securely connected. Check that no sand or debris is in the connectors that would damage the O-ring. Secure the headphone cord with the supplied velcro strain relief. Failure to do this can cause plastic to crack on the control box. Wrap the connections with 3M blue painters tape. Cover the magnetic charging connection with the blue tape. (The tape leaves no adhesive when removed.) You do not need to cover the speaker but you can seal it with tape if you want to. I wrap the cam locks with tape to keep sand out. Good luck 🍀 Please subscribe...I need 1000 subs.

Great questions! I only use Auto GB on Florida white sand beaches and underwater. The change in that sand is primarily salt water content and density. Where I hunt there is little trash to confuse the Auto. I only manual GB when relic hunting in mineralized sedimentary derived soils. High in Aluminum and Iron. Like the Nokta Simplex 0 GB is a very functional setting because the fast CPU in these new machines compensates for GB whether you turn on Auto GB or not. Best of Luck 🍀!

Yes, the Equinox 900 or 800 will detect fine gold chains in salt water. 900 has a better, faster processor and 100 target IDs to aid in this. A fine gold chain will ID as a VERY low number. So you should test some chains and be sure they arent filtered out. The deal is you are detecting the clasp or individual links in the chain. The links are RF reflectors and are not electrically connected as one thing. The best test I've seen in this was 5 yrs ago for the 800. Done by DetectorComparisons channel.

So true 🙂👍 a best practice where this is an issue. Minelab manual says to do it every time. but on the pure white powder sands of the Gulf of Mexico found from Pensacola to Fort Myers there is no mineralization. Its pure Quartz SiO2 from the erosion of the Appalachian mountains. ( yes, I am a professional geologist 😁 ) I generally clean under the coil cover about once a month. Note, the neutral white sand yields incredible depth on any Equinox. Best of luck to you! 🍀
