@@idigdaytona4478 first everyone needs a catch phrase. Also with all your metal detecting do you think you've made your money back that you paid for your gear. I'm in Connecticut and plan on getting an inexpensive setup around Christmas. I don't see anyone on our beaches and there are no laws against it.

[@pryan67]

Thanks for another great video. I really love how you show the AWESOME hunts as well as the "not so good" ones like this. Far too many detectorist videos only show the fabulous finds. GL and HH

[@idigdaytona4478]

Hi Patrick , I try to keep it real . That's why I live dig every target . Some detectorists only turn on the camera after they have found something . More on the way . Thanks for watching .

[@wandabrown3964]

Thanks for covering up the holes.

[@idigdaytona4478]

Hi Wanda , I always do. When I see where someone didn't fill their holes , I wonder if people think it was me. I have even seen where someone dug up some junk and left it next to the open hole. Thanks for watching.

I crushed an IPhone with my scoop the other day, still drying it out see if I can power it up maybe find the owner ,Another great video 🤙🏼

Hi Dane , be sure to dry it out real good. I dried out my flooded GoPro and it seemed OK then it started to get real hot and burned up. Hope you are able to do a return. Thanks for watching .

[@treasuresleuthbc]

That storm damage is crazy! 🌀 That earring is cool, i like using those plastic containers too for some of my finds. That puece of faucet is wild. That silver Roosevelt dime is a good score. 👍

Hello from Tennessee my friend. I’m glad that you are safe and getting back to normal as much as possible under the circumstances. I enjoyed the video and I’m sure you will find something good with a yellow color. Stay safe and be careful out on the beach.

[@idigdaytona4478]

Hi Steve , for some reason gold seems to be absent . Finding old silver coins but not much jewelry . Its out there someplace . We may have to wait and see if some of it gets pushed back in as the sand returns or we get another storm . More on the way , thanks for watching .

[@emcinc9654]

If they ever open Sanibel, Pine Island and especially Ft Myers Beach you should find many treasures

[@idigdaytona4478]

Hi E MCINC , their beach treasure may have been moved inland with the storm surge . I will hear from my friends on that side of the state how the beaches are. So far I have not heard any reports from the west side of the state. I'm sure there must be some beach treasure exposed. I think they have bridges repaired but when a bad storm hits they most likely only allow residents in the areas that have been affected . Hard to find time for a road trip right now. But you never know. Thanks for watching .

[@idigdaytona4478]

Hi Helen , in the next few videos I head south , back to Daytona and South Daytona. So much sand washed out the high tides rise to the top of the beach . I figured we were going to get a storm because the way the beach had been sanded most of the summer . Natures way to get ready for a big storm . More on the way , thanks for watching .

A few interesting bits and bobs out there. Another cool hunt. I had a lot of success in France recently on a beach. Not sure why there was so much to find there.

That’s funny. I was gonna climb down that busted ramp on your screenshot this morning when I went to watch the sunrise. Decided it wasn’t worth an injury. 😆

Hi Neil , a lady visiting from Kentucky died on Ormond with the storm. She was on the beach and a wave took her out. Family members got her back and as they were going up the stairs another wave took out the steps and washed the lady back out . When the got her back in the second time she was gone . Be safe out there . Thanks for watching .

Maybe you should head south to the 1715 fleet my friend. Maybe some washed up like Jimmy Bones found. That would be awesome 🤠.

[@idigdaytona4478]

Hi Joey , the surf did most of the damage on Daytona Beach and south 11 miles to Ponce inlet . This was Ormond Beach, 5 miles north of Daytona Beach. They had the big surf but it didn't remove any sand. The treasure coast area is 100 miles south and from what I have heard they didn't get much beach erosion this time. I keep an eye on it. It would be nice to find some Spanish gold and silver. More on the way , thanks for watching .
