Beach Treasure Hunting at Gulf Shores, Alabama - Metal Detecting

[@nataliepotter3635]

though I had some problem with sea water It also kzbin.infoUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

[@MontereyMagnetMan]

Great hunt! That was a nice chunky ring! 316k views too! Awesomeness💪📈🤩🏆

[@jakebob6332]

I've been metal detecting for 25 years but I can never NOT love watching others like you enjoying this beloved hobby. I've watched several of your videos and your enthusiasm is contagious. I especially liked the ending to this vid where you took all of us on a tour of Gulf Shores. Thank you for that 😊

[@LuckyGin]

Awww, thank you so much Jake.😍. I adore metal detecting and the thrill of what the next find will be, and I especially love it when I’m visiting a new place too. I love travel and it fits perfectly with the love of detecting, and I really love being able to share the experience via my channel. What an amazing time we live in.💖🙂🍀

[@charlesmurschell3110]

Good job Gin. Love Gulf Shores, been there many times. Have family in Robertsdale.

[@LuckyGin]

Thanks so much, Charles. I completely understand why you love it - I fell in love too! 😍🙂🍀

[@patriciapresley525]

I wondered what it was like on other beaches and it looks the same as North and Sourh Carolina. North Carolina is more different bc of the islands and some towns keeping it historic. Even the water looks the same. Glad you brought me along to see other places Thank you for that! I became disabled 15 years ago so you folks that travel are my feet and my eyes! Good luck, Be Safe!

[@LuckyGin]

I’m glad to be able to share the experience with you, Patricia. I always like to see a bit of the area in people’s videos, so I try to share the same with others. 🙂🍀 Thanks so much for visiting my channel.

[@biggierat2243]

I believe the main reason for the 12” hole ordinance is that in some areas, turtles have nesting grounds and it impedes the hatchlings trek to the water. Enjoyed the video.

[@scadstersworld5634]

Gin, I've water hunted at Gulf Shores some over the years. That surf is so rough that a lot of the times I had to leave good sounding targets right where they were because the waves washed the sand and shell fragments back into the hole as fast as I could dig...and I used a Stealth Sunspot 720i water hunting scoop which is one of the best water hunting scoops ever made. Before that, I used a RTG 6" Monster scoop made of stainless steel...which was a very strong water hunting scoop but I had problems getting down to the targets before the sand and shell frags got washed back into the hole. Of the 2 scoops, I think the 720i scoop works best in rough surf to retrieve targets. I mostly used a Tesoro Sand Shark (Which is a PI detector)....I have also used a Fisher 1280-x and a Fisher CZ 20. I have owned over 30 detectors over the last 38 years. I've owned 5 water hunting detectors...that CZ 20 was one a friend owned and I borrowed it a few times to beach hunt with and shallow water hunt. Metal detecting has been a very fun and interesting hobby for me.

[@LuckyGin]

It’s really nice to hear that it wasn’t just me struggling to get the targets out of the surf. I was experiencing everything you described. It was really tough! I hope to find some beaches this summer with surf a little more friendly to water detecting.🙂🍀

[@scadstersworld5634]

@@LuckyGin where do you live? I was just wondering if you have to travel a long distance to get to Gulf Shores? I don't live near there, and I don't get down there very often, but I'd like to get back to Gulf Shores this Summer if possible, but I am going through a medical problem....I have been taking radiation treatments for cancer of the larynx....vocal cords....in February, when the doctor was trying to do a biopsy on the spot on my vocal cord, they couldn't get my heart regulated and after finding out that the arteries going to my heart were clogged pretty badly, the surgeons did a 4 way bypass on me. That was a whole lot of pain and even now I feel some pains when I am not careful what I do. This radiation stuff is really painful to deal with (Feels like my neck is on fire and the skin on my neck is red and looks like the skin is trying to come off in front under my Adam's Apple. And I never have been a smoker other than trying it shortly as a teen. So, you see, I have some issues gong on. I tried to get out on the beach with my cousin a few weeks back and found out that I just couldn't do it at that time....but I hope to sometime after I heal up from this radiation stuff. Maybe we could do some beach hunting together sometime coming up. I also like detecting in parks, around old home places, etc.

[@helluvatime4562]

My sister and brother in law had a beach house down there when I was a kid. Where all those high rise condos are was nothing but sand dunes. There was one state park that I can remember. But you could just park anywhere go over the dunes set up and have a whole day with your family and friends and not see another person. It was sublime. Still pretty down there though, but nothing compared to what it used to be.

[@LuckyGin]

That sounds like it must have been incredible. I often seek out the remote beaches but they are becoming harder to find all the time. Thanks so much for visiting my channel.🙂🍀

[@LuckyGin]

A mullet toss? Oh, I’m gonna have to google this and see what I missed.🤣. I’ll definitely be back, though not quiet sure when. In May I’m heading out on a Wild West tour and will be on the road for quite a while. Thanks for the tip about the 4th - I’ll keep that in mind.🙂🍀

Enjoyed your video, especially the drive from Gulf Shores to Orange Beach. I owned a place on the beach for 20 years ----- now I've been gone for 20. So many changes ----- enjoyed it when it was a 2-lane road; lots of fine memories ----- you drove by my place too.

[@LuckyGin]

Awwww, how cool is that. I love that I went by your old home place and you were able to get a look.💖🍀

[@RJ-oe7by]

Did a big bounce to the mountains of Vermont ---- still waterfront though. Lots of places to detect up here; figure out where they put the hammock, then pick up the spills.

[@execjet1]

Thanks for sharing. I have enjoyed your videos as I am just returning to the treasure hunt game. I started out with a Garrett Ace 250 (ha ha ha!) many years ago, but from what I see, the most successful hunters use Deus ll or Mantacor. We both have hit many of the same beaches but now I can't wait to go back and try better equipment. Happy hunting!

[@scadstersworld5634]

I used to go to Gulf Shores and spend all day surf hunting with my Sand Shark PI detector before trying to make my way back to my vehicle. Let me tell you, I was slap worn out tired when I finally got back to my car. When I got back to my car, it was way past dark and I would get in the car and open up my ice chest and get a few snacks and drink a couple soft drinks and generally rest and recuperate a while before cranking up and heading away from the beach. It was an adventure for sure, but Lordy Mighty I was sure glad when I finally got to lay down and rest for the night.

[@michaelwest5072]

My favorite beaches!! Anywhere from gulf shores to perdito key. Hope you made it to the hangout or Bama/fl bar. So much fun. Oh yeah nice ring as well. Now your hitting treasures. Looking to move back there soon. Miss it bad!

[@scadstersworld5634]

Gin, I usually start my search at the public fishing pier and search along until I am a good ways past the PINK PONY club....I'd say probably around a couple hundred yards past there. It is usually before 10 AM when I start and I keep going until it gets dark. By that time I am tired and way down the beach from my car. I usually lay down in the shallow waves and rest a while before trodding back down that long beach to my car. I take an icebox full of ice and snacks with me and when I finally get back to my car, I rest a little while and then I get a drink and a couple of snacks out of my icebox and eat and drink a bit before leaving the beach. It's a hard day, but also a fun day (For the most part).

On the far west of beach drive are the condos, as you pointed out. Did you find the outdoor big stage, at the east end, on the beach side? I spent a lot of time there, talking with and listening to various musical artists performing, and "hanging out" (naturally). They always have some really good talent on that stage !!! I already knew many that were performing, and met many more... Great vid, brings back good memories. And you picked up some really good finds !!! Congrats. Always fun, "tagging along".

I’ve worked in Gulf Shores for 29 years and live about 35 minutes due north of town. Love the town but not so much the crowds in Spring and Summer. Lol

That ring is a James Avery. He’s a high end silversmith in Texas.

[@perkins9792]

been on the gulf coast of ALA since '81. Love it here. Lucky Gin did you stop by the Flora-Bama Lounge?

[@LuckyGin]

I didn’t know to stop at that lounge, but it’s definitely on my list for next time. I feel like I missed out!🍀

[@johnsouthworth4821]

Very nice James Avery silver ring! Huge!

[@LuckyGin]

Thanks John! It sure made my day to find it.🙂🍀

I lived in Pensacola Florida for 7 years.Do make sure you wear your suntan lotion on all exposed parts. That white sand will burn you to a crisp reflecting that sun. :) I've practically had 2nd degree burns over it. Looking good and having fun. Good luck swinging. :)

[@LuckyGin]

I learned pretty quick about that sand and sun. The first day I used spray sunblock and every spot I missed was burned. I promptly bought lotion so I could be sure I didn’t miss the next day.😉🍀

I normally use white's metal detectors. Today I found a couple of fisher metal detectors at the flea market, and decided to get them to try. Gold bug II, and the other I have to take a closer look at. I think beach detector.

[@LuckyGin]

Gold bug II is a good one; hopefully the other one is too. 🍀 if the other was a CZ21, you scored big time!

[@calvinbreland4141]

Thank you for your channel. I really enjoy your hunts. So sorry about your friend. Be strong and keep up the great job.

[@dennisschill4956]

Thank you for taking me for a ride down the strip, I am usually the one driving and have to keep my eyes forward, but since you took my place I enjoyed the view ❤️ 💗 💕

[@LuckyGin]

Awww, well I’m so glad you enjoyed it Dennis.🙂🍀

[@williamgoring7605]

Well it looks like you did somebody a favor by getting that Spike out of the sand good job on the ring the silver I love watch metal detecting I think I'm going to get one I live in the mountains and there's a lot of state parks and there's a lot of really hot spots where people go a lot up here I'm going to give it a shot I'm going to look up metal detectors right now and see what they cost

[@luisvillarreal5262]

Hello Lucky Gin. Wow, that’s a very nice ring. James Avery jewelry is a big part of metal detecting. Probably more than half my rings I have found are J.A. Thanks for sharing with us. See you on your next vid. _/ 👍🍀

[@LuckyGin]

Wow, I had no idea. I’d never heard of him until I found this ring. Hopefully it will be the first of many.🙂🍀

[@betoxyz68]

Just left Gulf Shores and only found 2 pull tabs and that’s it. Great job!

[@LuckyGin]

Oh noooo! That’s a bummer. I’ve had many a session like that and it’s no fun.😣

[@Tygerspa]

I love the car tour at the end of this video. 😎

[@Gold17]

Wow that is a long road thanks for the tour.

[@LuckyGin]

It sure is, and beach for miles on the other side of the buildings. Really beautiful. Thanks for stopping by.🙂🍀

[@thesetube27]
