Nightmare Scenario | Beach Metal Detecting on Spring Break

Unfortunate timing of the county to do a beach replenishment during spring break. Why they chose the busiest month to start this project is beyond me. However, it managed to work out in our favor while we were beach metal detecting.

Why the county decided to start this project during spring break is perplexing 😂😂. Didn't turn out as bad as I thought.

[@DigginSoCal]

Awesome set of hunts.... great finds!!!

Replenished sand during spring break strange to say the least. But good seeing you out anyway.

[@billweser8931]

[@SOFLOTreasureFinds]

Thanks william!

[@rogerclaiborne6815]

I would test that white and yellow gold cross. I got one just like it that was stamped and tested 10K.

[@SOFLOTreasureFinds]

I dont see any stamps but ill test it.

[@ShowMeMO-Digs]

Not too bad with the replenishment. Discouraging for you though. Spring break should be more fun for you.

[@randygalla1548]

It doesn’t appear that you are gridding. Is that a common procedure for reclaimed beaches?

[@SOFLOTreasureFinds]

I dont grid unless i am looking for a lost piece for someone. I zig zag, triangle etc.

[@america2revolt]

So did you give up using the Nokta Legend?

[@SOFLOTreasureFinds]

I didnt have the patience anymore. Switched to the nox 900, never looked back. Every night Amy comes up to me saying, was your machine chattery all night lol, i ask her the same question every time, ready to switch lol? Nox 900 is dead quiet everywhere we hunt. The legend is on the backup bench for the foreseeable future. I will bust it out every now and again. Even with the updated drivers fix, its just too dam sensitive to EMI and salt. After being spoiled with how quiet the NOX 900 is, it's hard to go back ya know?

[@america2revolt]

@SOFLOTreasureFinds Hey Brother, I updated my driver on my PC with your instructions. I redownloaded the 1.11v for my Nokta Legend. Then, I did a factory reset. Hopefully, it doesn't give me any more crap. But I will keep you updated. If it doesn't help, will you PLEASE help me get a replacement machine through Dilek directly. I will set her my machine so they can compare yours and what they found or didn't fine to mine. This has to be an issue with something!!!

[@frankwithers]

😂

[@davidlewis9068]

You had a great video just the same.

[@SOFLOTreasureFinds]

Thanks David.

[@FXNorm]

Wow, 100 targets . No gold.. wait till all the new women and newbie hunters show up as they WATCH your video's. wink

[@SOFLOTreasureFinds]

I have met a bunch of brand new hunters. Generally speaking, a lot of them "newbies" (from what I have seen) don't stick with the hobby too long. I am sure a good amount do as well.
