I am laughing as I jealously watch you on the beach because of the winter storm we are in up north. I have recently got over worrying about other people and their opinions about what we do. It has made going out more enjoyable and allowed me to ask for, and receive many more permissions. Happy hunting, good luck!, and enjoy the weather down there!
+Dinger51 Hahaha, I can only imagine! Yea, I'll have to get there with you. I guess since I'm still so new to it, I'm not used to people stareing and laughing at me. Oh well I guess! HH to you as well if you're even able to hunt in the snow. Hehehe!
Gold, platinum and diamonds are most surely enroute.I found my first ring of the year today on my first hunt of the year! I expect good things from that sand and look forward to watching you pull them out. Great videos and thank you!
nice beach. I find on my SC beaches that I find d the most stuff aka coins near beach access walk ways over the dunes Down to beach or the towel lines where beach layout and play. glad you found out about the raptor handle cause T-Rex is a hand full with out it. can't wait for mind to arrive from gold diggers thanks to your advice. keep it up love watching you
I used to live in Clearwater and Largo. I just started watching your videos so I'm not sure where all you've been but if you haven't been there, go to Treasure Island beach on Monday mornings after the drum circle on Sunday nights. I used to play in the drum circle out there and we regularly had a couple hundred people show up. You might have some really good luck hunting out there.
If you are having fun, and not hurting anybody, or their property, who cares if they are laughing. This is not a question, because a question requires an answer. I do enjoy the videos. One thing, you might want to re-scan what you pull out of the holes, just to make sure you are not missing anything. Even though your 'target' still seems to be in the hole, you might have pulled out a similar 'target'. Also if you get a plastic scoop, you can 'scan' the scoop to see if you picked up the target. Have fun. Still frozen in Oregon.
+RKE Round2iT Industries Yea, I do have fun. :) I'm glad you like my videos. That's a good tip. I usually rescan the holes, but I don't think I rescan the removed sand all the time. I'll try to make sure I do that. I'd hate to throw back a gold ring on accident! Yea, a plastic scoop would be nice. I can't even let the scoop get within 2 feet of the coil before it starts screaming. Ouch! I hope you guys at least get some sun, even if it's still cold! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video once again She Detector.I've searched Clearwater Beach before on numerous occasions and have found clad coins and pull tabs.Indian a Rocks Beach is another great metal detecting location.
+David Crews Thank you! I'm just glad I didn't find any pull tabs, I'm sick of those things! Hahaha. I've not made it to that beach just yet. One day though I'm sure!
+hard yakka Hehehe, me to! I wasn't able to get out this weekend :( So I have to wait until this weekend coming up unfortunately. Yes, smaller jar indeed! Hehehe.
+Hey You Well thanks for following, I appreciate the support! It's a great scoop. Since yours is bigger you'll be able to move more sand and shells which should be great. $90!? That's awesome! Great find right there.
Great job on the coins it is the best feeling when you get roundness in the hole . I live about 45 minuets from Tampa let me know if you ever want to go on a hunt .
+Relic Hunting Florida Thanks! I know, I love it when it's a coin. Oh, very cool. Small world huh? Hahaha. Yea I'll keep that in mind, thanks! And thanks for watching!
hurray coinage!dont let the beach bums bother you they are just pissed they dont have a detector lol.i ve never made it to the extreme south end of Florida but been to east and west. Clearwater was one of my favorite beaches.great vid makes me wanna come back and enjoy my cold horrible winter in florida beautiful.keep it up 👍
+Rob Plotts Yep! I think I agree with you. Or maybe they are jealous over my having the confidence to do this hobby in a public place. Hahaha. Who knows? It's a very nice beach for sure. The water seems to always be rough though... :/ You should totally come to Florida. It's much better! Hahaha. Thanks for watching!
+Brad Hellerstedt Aww! That's so nice of you. I would love more subscribers for sure. Like R Adams has over 5k, nuggetnoggin has over 100k and deepdiggerdan has over 200k! It's building up though. Everyday it gets a little bigger. :) Thanks for watching!
+She Detector no problem! I know your account will get bigger over the days. Just keep believing and you will find something amazing. :) thanks for the reply! :D
I hunt Clearwater beach a lot and I get stared at and probably laughed at...but you have the right attitude... who cares... I love doing it!!!!!! You look like you do too!!!! Keep digging!!!!!!
Hay Hunter how are the finds coming!?! me I am now holding at 21 gold rings 8 silver rings ect ect will need another machine soon . good luck kid keep em coming. PS lost my GO Pro so I am back to square one bummer adapt and overcome I guess...
After a while you learn to just tune out the spectators and just enjoy the hobby. I agree with dcox01, you will be the one laughing when you start recovering those gold rings! GREAT Video.
+FenderStrat19711 Yea. Sometimes when I first start hunting for the day I get a little self conscious but then I start digging coins and I forget all about them. :) That's right! Or they will drop their ring and come running to me for help. :D Thank you and thanks for watching.
Last time I watched you were using your hubbie's homemade scoop, and before that shoveling with bare feet! The Barefoot She Detector, you were a legend already. Now I am jealous of your T-Rex scoop, and your lovely signed scoop handle. And I love your new beach shoes (well, when you're wearing them.). But, it's your attitude that is beyond priceless; happy with a few pennies, that's a good mindset to have. But, one day you'll have a yen for gold really bad, and that's when you should replace your sea hunter with a dual or multi-frequency vlf. A used Beach Hunter id would be about an even trade.
+So Be It Lol you're a few videos behind my friend! Hahaha yea, a legend in the metal detecting community as having no clue. Lol! The TRex is a beast! Glad I went with it for sure. And I love my modified handle! :D Hahaha yep, I think lots of people are happy to see the new shoes. Much more better than bare feet OR flip flops. Hahaha well I'll tell you, the past few hunts I've gone on all I came home with were pull tabs. I was more than pleased to come home with $0.27 and ZERO pull tabs. Lol. One day I'll upgrade to the Excal II. It's my dream machine.... ::sigh::
my parents live in Florida the have a huge camper and travel around down there.its like 2 degrees in jersey this morning.no metal detecting for me till probly april.so keep makin your vids it keeps me a little sain
+Rob Plotts They have the right idea. You need to get on board! Hahaha. Sorry you can't get out until later in the year. :/ Hahaha, I'll keep making them for sure. I'll send a little sunshine to Jersey from Florida!
I was stationed on the USS forestall in mayport Fla. I have relatives in clear water,I spent a week there and we went to that same beach. MY cousin lost a gold necklace with her sweet 16 gold ring. That was the in 1977 I think. keep at it and good Luck and happy hunting in 2016 .
+Glenn Bell Yea, I know where that's at. I used to live in Kings Bay, not to far from there. Oh that sucks that she lost it. I'm sure someone found it by now though. But, who knows maybe it's still there waiting to be found. :D Thanks, and thanks for watching!
I drove up to that beach once from Sarasota. Got there at daybreak and there was already 7 other people detecting: 1 in the water on each side of the pier and the rest on dry sand. Needless to say I didn't find much!
+Greg Hollister Wow really? I guess I'm not surprised honestly. Clearwater is a huge attraction so it's pretty promising with the finds. But, knowing that there were only two water hunters sounds pretty promising for me! :)
well done young lady (screw them) ? you got something for your jar anyway. Was expect a park detect with your new pin pointer. Glad to see Hubby naming your bits and pieces. Looking forward to your next video. It is all about how you play the game.
+hard yakka Thank you! Yea, I don't like being laughed at, :( That's right, I got to finally add something to the jar. It's been to long! Oh that's coming, don't you worry. I'm excited! Lol yea, it was very nice of him to add that. He surprises me with little things like that. :D Thanks for watching!
Hey hey your on the board. hehe. Here in Canada it`s not hard to find five bucks every time I get out to a park or beach. We have Loonies a twonies. So it adds up . The first year I started I found around 250 bucks. . .Cheers from Canada.
+Treasure Shaman Oh that's a huge chance of scenery for sure! I'm sure there's great stuff to be found, I just need to find it. Hahaha. I'll try to get to Gulfport, thanks for the tip. And thanks for watching!
I've got a CTX 3030 but new into detecting. I found my first gold ring and silver/gold plated earring a couple of weeks ago at Daytona. I was at Madeira beach last Tuesday with little luck but fun. A smart phone and about 43 cents. I think low tide is at 1ish but I'll be there about 11am.
+ngford98 Abington Well welcome to the hobby. I'm still pretty new myself. Only been doing it about 6 months. That's awesome, those are great finds! A phone? Hahaha, great find. Can't do anything with it I'm sure but still pretty cool. Well good luck, I hope you find something great!
+She Detector well I hit Daytona beach again today. One 10k white gold band and one silver (925) diamond earring. I'm on a roll lol. I'm definitely going to hit up Clearwater Beach next Sunday. Going to the Frenchy's parking lot area. I'll be there two hours before low tide like I did today in Daytona. If your out that why say hi. Hope you are going to get your first gold/silver this week.
ngford98 Abington That's fantastic! Not sure when I'll be hunting, or where, but if I make it down to Clearwater, I'll make sure to say hi. :) Good luck to you though!
GREAT HUNT , LOVE BEACH HUNTING, ONLY IN FLORIDA TWICE A YEAR, FOUND MY FIRST BEACH RING ON PANAMA CITY BEACH BACK IN MAY, BUT ALAS WAS ONLY A STAINLESS WEDDING BAND BUT A COOL FIND, HAPPY HUNTING!
I also have spent hundreds of hours detecting that beach with several videos made. Will be there soon for the last time during spring break. Afterwards will be moving to upstate Ga. Happy hunting.
cell phones,gold tooth caps,four iPods,much silver jewelry,two gold rings,a watch with a hundred dollar bill, class ring,old wheat pennies ,1200 hundred in coins (in 2 years)
+karl chebator Wow! That's fantastic! Well I'll be hunting Clearwater Beach this weekend, with my new detector of course! I'm excited to see what I'm find. I'm really hoping for something great!
+She Detector It will get better soon with spring break starting. I will be waiting two weeks before I detect. Won't see you because I detect at night (carry taser for protection) Middle of March to Aug. best. Good luck.
karl chebator That's true. Oh ok, well at least you don't have to deal with people bothering your or watching you. Hahaha nice! Good luck to you as well!
People laughing at you? Yeah, they do it to me sometimes, too. And you are right, screw them. You are out doing it, and they can't, living a life they can only dream of. Soldier on! Oh, and love that pouch from Meyer's Metal Detectors. I am a local (and native) and shop there, too.
I watched your video showing off your new pin pointer and that trick regarding depth. I like my old black pin pointer as it hasn't much depth because I have to use a pick to dig my hard soils (not frozen either) . If I don't get any feed back from my pin pointer I knowhat I can wack the ground hard with my pick. Not good to hit the coin your recovering otherwise you get called two stroke. One for the hole and one for the coin.
+hard yakka Awesome! Oh man, that's not cool having to use a pick. Yea, I could understand not wanting more depth. Hehehe. Yea, I would hate to find a really rare coin and realize I hit it with the pick. Yikes!
It looks to me that Clearwater beach is a much better place to hunt I don't know how much of a drive it is for you to get there but I think that the prospects are much better than Sunset beach. I'm heading back to Pismo Beach on Friday the incoming storms and high tides have been churning up the beach so maybe I will find some good stuff Wish me luck. Good luck on your adventures and don't sweat the people watching They have no idea what can be found on the beach.
+Stephen Stonacek It is for sure. It's only about 20-30 minute drive. Not terrible really. Now that the summer people are gone, and hopefully the snow birds, I'm going to try to hit it more often. Oh that's great, I hope you find something awesome! I'm wishing you tons of good luck! :) Yea, they are missing out. But that's alright, more for me to find!
Nice day there..was hoping to see a long video..sounds nice with waves crashing. Maybe it would be beneficial to show yourself hunting instead of just when you hear something. You may be walking and swinging way too slow. If your walking faster you will hear a signal and just back up for it. If you walking to slow your going to hear every deep piece of junk. Don't worry ..if there is a ring you will hear it. Try doubling your pace and swing..try it! Showing your pace and a longer video there you'll have more detectorist able to give you advice. Maybe state your settings as you go along also. and talk about your frustrations and questions in your mind while hunting. Cant help if we don't know your problems! lol How long did you hunt? Did you try around the pilings and under the pier? Nice beach and there has to be thousands of rings in the water and sand! Hope you get you Carrot soon! Always go up and meet and talk to any detectorists you come across...no telling what they may help you with.. most want to help newbies! See what they have found.. should be glad to show you! Hugs and HH next time! ;)
+john harvey Yea it wasn't to bad. I would've made it longer but the rest of my videos were nothing buy bobby pins! Hahaha. I thought about that, but I worry people might get bored. Maybe I'll start working that in though. I'll give it a try. I guess I always thought going fast could cause me to miss something, guess not though. I was out for about two hours. The beach started getting crowded and the meter was almost up. I didn't get to close to the pilings but I did go under the pier. I didn't find anything but bobby pins under there though :/ I'll make sure to talk to them all. One guy approached me though. Said he watched some of my videos and wanted to introduce himself! I couldn't believe it. I was like, it's official, I'm famous. Lol! So, there is someone out there that knows what I look like. :D
dear : queen of the watermelons , congratulations to found some of coins and all that one for women's hear you found more than 6 so I think this is a women's area ha ha so i think sure you can find some of gold rings here because when have more women's have also more treasures so i saw the new things come with you , in last video you be more active so it's good to have more chances when you dig here and there , im really so happy for you and im also sure in next time you will find a watermelons sorry a gold boxes . congratulations again and have good luck , regards (IN GOD WE TRUST )
+matar ali Thank you! Hahaha yea, I think I might agree with you. I'll be hitting that beach again for sure! Lol I'd be alright finding another watermelon, it's better than a pull tab any day! But the gold is much better.
+metal detecting QLD “Drew” Lol no. I went back and listened to it though and it does sound like I said something else. I added a comment to the video. :D I'm sure I was thinking it though!
+Jaye Dee MUSIC Yea, I try to ignore them. Oh now I bet you can find some awesome stuff depending on where you hunt. With all the Mexican-American battles I'm sure there's lots of goodies waiting to be dug up. Good luck to you as well. Thanks for watching!
She, don't worry about those VLF units, a pulse machine is the deepest on any wet salt beach bar none. The VLF will get you on iron disc. but will pass right over stuff that you can get with ease. Remember, pulse is king in salt. If I wanted the best machine for dry sand then yes, a VLF. If the VLF is not waterproof though, salt mist air can find it's way into the electronics and ruin a machine, even if you don't enter the water. I would use my AT Pro on a dry sand beach, and in fact it works really well on the wet sand too. In the salt water PI units rule though. The MineLab Excalibur ll will really do well in salt, because it's made for it. That machine will set you back $1500.00 bucks though. PI's are still deeper in salt from what I have seen. MineLab uses multi frequency BBS technology which is far better then a VLF single frequency unit, but a PI will pick up stuff they missed at depth. So after someone with an Excal grid hunts an area or spirals out, go over it with your Sea Hunter MKll and you might be surprised what you can find that was just out of his reach.
+Artie813 Yea, and I've heard that most VLF people don't dig things that are really deep. So I have a huge advantage. Yea it's funny what salt can do. It's not kind at all. The other guy that was detecting in the dry sand had the Excalibur. I thought I was going to have to fight him for my water spot but he didn't even get close to the water. :) I didn't know that. That's good to know. I'll be that guys shadow if I see him again. He'll be like, "go away!" Lol.
+She Detector NO No No... get to know the the guy..that's what this hobby is really all about! You can find good items much faster having a friend hunting and developing strategies together! Believe me! And when you run out of a battery charge early he just may have an extra detector in the car! I have 3 charged detectors in my car all times. lol
john harvey That's awesome that you go prepared like that. I'll make sure to chat with everyone I see for sure! Who knows, maybe my luck will go up if I go out with more experienced detectorists. :)
HI She, stick with it and that gold ring will show up very soon. You just gotta get your coil over it. Try hunting the popular summer beach areas at low tide, and look for the low spots where the shells accumulate. Also, look for small pools of water and wet spots. When you start finding heavier stuff like sinkers and quarters, work that area hard because the medium and heavier gold should be in with these items. Take note that tiny gold can be anywhere. After a storm and low tide are two great times to hunt, as you can get to the deeper stuff since the storm will cause some eroding and pull sand out so deeper targets will be in reach. Check out surfdigger's videos. The guy is a top notch beach hunter, and he has some of the best beach detecting tips on UA-cam. I also use the Sea hunter MK ll. Here's some other tips: Bobby pins will give a slight double beep most of the time. Also, when you get a target, sweep it in all directions and if you get a solid crisp sound, then dig it. If you're in doubt, dig it. Good Luck, and Happy Hunting.
+Artie813 I'm hoping so. :) Yea, I'm hoping to get a low tide this weekend. Last weekend I went out around 9 and low tide wasn't until 12. :/ Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind when I go out this weekend. It's funny you mention that, I've noticed a few times the double beep but I always think there's two targets down there. Lol. Me being optimistic I guess. That's what's hard, I'll hear a faint target and dig it because I'm scared it could be something great. Oh well. It's a sure way of not missing anything I guess. Thanks, GL and HH to you as well.
clearwater beach metal . I started watching you then , and got into metal detecting after that . I find horse shoes and horse buckles ,I hunt in the woods . love it .been doing it over a year . I live in Bensalem pa.,,,,,, please enter me in the contest
Thanks for watching! Make sure to leave your comment on the video for the contest. I can't add you from this video. You can leave the same comment, it just needs to be on the video for the contest. Good luck!
you need a pin pointer. I actually hate water detecting but have gotten the most silver rings in one day. 15. that was in one area that was all marked off for swimming. It was like shooting fish in a barrel. The whole time it was like, ring, ring ,ring.
+She Detector That's what you do in the water... find it with the back of coil...put your toe up against coin in the back then put your scoop right in front or a little behind where big toe was behind coil...don't move that foot till you have your scoop there in place.
+DirtFishingCanada Thank you! Yea, the beaches close to me seem to only produce pull tabs, this one at least had some coins. Thanks for watching, GL and HH to you as well!
Nice video. Good to see a woman in the hobby for a change. I am from Daytona Beach myself. I have to ask how you like that mark II, because I have one arriving tomorrow. Hope to do well with it. And I wonder how you became interested in metal detecting? Best of luck!....Oh, and don't worry.... you will have a payday soon enough!
+Don Wilson (diggin Time USA) Thank you! I agree, there should be more. It's a great machine if you don't mind digging everything. It goes really deep. You'll dig two feet down for a pull tab, easy. Once it gets warmer I plan on doing some underwater videos. That should be interesting. Check out my video, All About Beaker. I did an air test showing what it sounds like but I also show what happens when you adjust the settings a little bit. I actually got into this hobby kind of by accident. I saw a video of a guy using a Vibra-Tector 730 and thought it would be cool to use out on the boat so I bought one. Then I upgraded to a full size detector after about 2 months. Now I go out almost every weekend. I sure hope so! Thanks for watching!
thanks for the fast reply. I received my mark II today and did a quick air test. The Sea hunter Mark II adds the 6th metal detector to my arsenal....Ha, ha. The only thing I don't care for is the wobbly shaft, but I can fix that. I wanted a PI for the beach specifically because I plan on going home soon. Look forward to your future videos. Maybe we can hunt together some time. Best of luck!
Don Wilson That's awesome, 6 detectors! Wow. Yea, it's wobbly for sure. I make sure to tighten all the knobs before heading out to try reduce that. It still wobbles though. Yea sure, I'm up for hunting with people. Be for warned, I might bring your luck down. Lol.
Great Video I put up a new one this weekend found a bunch of coins nothing old but oh well you should check it out. i like the personalized scoop now the husband did a good job.
+Caleb Bennington Awesome, coins are better than nothing! Hahaha. I'll check them out for sure. Yea, I think it looks great and he did an awesome job. Thanks for watching!
it's good see that you have a sand scoop this time and shoes,and not your spade a bare feet that couldn't have been comfortable I was concerned that you might accidentally chop your toes off :) metal decting in the uk is a lot different having Vikings, Romans and Anglo Saxons and medievil ,I guess that's why I watch your vids you find day today relics and coins
+James Beards Yes, they both help so much! Yea, the shovel wasn't for efficient at all. Hahaha. Yea, I could understand your wanting to see people find "normal" stuff. I wouldn't mind finding an old timey relic like those though! At least once anyways. :)
Sorry I meant that watching your vids. is great. Not that you should show your face. By not showing your face is like your calling card. People will still wonder what you look like but it's your go gettem' positive attitude that everybody wants to see. You and beeker are still new to this, but with time and patience you will become the detectorist that is inside of you . That's what everyone wants see. The anticipation and your response of that first great find will be priceless!! SPOON!!! :)) Will be waiting for your next Vid. ATB GL&HHP.S. Most people I see at the Parks have no idea what I'm doing. Don't sweat the small stuff.
+Ray Kimbrell Well I'm glad you like my videos. I agree with you that it's like my calling card. Yea I still have lots to learn for sure! LOL I pray it's not a spoon but I guess if it is, I'll be one step closer to having a complete set of silverware. I'll just need a knife! Hehehe. HH and GL to you as well!
Coin cleaning Tip: badly grubby coins : place coins in a saucepan cover with pure olive oil (costs 80p) heat until you see coins fry for about 30 second either side ,this method won't damage the coin but will remove corrosion and embedded dirt
Ouch, that bottle top certainly made you work hard and I think that's the first time I've heard you swear :P (and certainly don't blame you at that point!) As for anyone watching on laughing (and hopefully they weren't!) if they ever do, keep in mind that you have nearly 1500 subscribers silently cheering you on in the background as well! :)
+Simon Burton Hehehe yea it did. They seem to do that to me... not sure why. Hahaha yea, they hurt my feelings. :( But you're right, I'm extremely happy to know that I've got all of you supporting me and that makes me smile. :D
She Detector Speaking of the channel earning money, is there any mechanism for making donations to the channel as yet? I was really happy to see you are about to get a Pinpointer and it would be an honor to contribute towards it if possible?
***** I think youtube has something like that. I've scanned over it but not in depth. I didn't look more into it because I didn't want people to think I was just looking for money. I'm extremely flattered that you would want to help me get my pin pointer! Hehehe, that's so nice of you! You guys are so nice!!!
+She Detector Understood and as with most things I've seen on your channel you have a pleasant attitude. If you do happen to set up a Paypal donation button somewhere (or PM me the details if that's easier) am happy to contribute. Whatever helps - I think we'd all love to see you find gold. Mind you, by stumbling across your channel, I've already found some ;)
I use to live there! DO NOT hunt on the left side of the pier about 30 yards out! Before it got destroyed by a hurricane a number of years ago there was a cut off there and people would throw coins off and make a wish. You can't move your coil more than 6 inches without hitting a coin! If you want to find coints and jewelry hunt at the beginning of the pier next to the restaurants, people drop coins on their way to the restaurants.
+Chas Man Thank you! Yea I agree. But it's the first time that I've noticed people laughing... not so nice to my feelings. :/. But I'm glad I've got all of you that enjoy watching. :D
She Detector Do you know when you're going to let us know about your surprise? If anyone else ever laughs at what you're doing. Don't let it get to you. I believe people do stuff like that because deep down they have insecurities about themselves. And they believe that bullying and making fun of people is going to make them feel better about themselves. When in doesn't.
Food Stamp Sure! I posted a video on my facebook page showing my surprise(s) (more than one!) I got my pin pointer finally! YEY!!! You've got a very good point. I think they were probably jealous that I have the guts to something "silly" like metal detecting in public. :)
hi she detector i was wondering if that was a magnet on the scoop and if so does it work well.. i detect out here in new england (massachusettes) and never seen that before.
+jeff rebello Hi there! It sure is. I've got two of them in my scoop. It does work great but only on the iron items and bottle caps. It doesn't catch aluminum or pull tabs (same thing pretty much), or coins. I've not found any gold but it shouldn't catch that either. I'm not sure about silver, I've not found any of that since installing the magnets. They are great with beach detecting, not sure it would come in handy with land detecting.
I was wondering you already have a good fan base. I've seen other utubers that started out with just a few subs. but they kept at it and now have viewers in the millions. Do you hope to have the same? The utubers who have been doing this for years have let us see there children from toddlers to young adults. I think it would be great to see you the way you are now just learning the detector trade to becoming a great detectorist. Just wondering. ATB & HH
+Ray Kimbrell It would be awesome to have millions, or even several thousand. Deep Digger Dan has over 200k! That's true. I guess it does make it more personable. I have been thinking about showing my face in the future. But I think I'll maybe save it for when I find my first ring or something. Hahaha. Thanks for asking. It's nice to know people want to know more about me. :)
Looks like Naples Pier.. And Nice to show the Real Dark Side of MD and how disappointinng it can be and usually is..But Nodoy is Laughing at you..I'd tell them your outhere for Hire and get $55 hr lus 50% of what your find for the City.. Our Cities Lost adn Found is Loaded with stuff...More than Pay for my Wages and Beneifts.. this used to be my Mothers Job for 31 yrs.. its alittle tough in the Summers( Super hot) but I use unbrella's and even riding in a Dune Buggy with a large Scooper that digs down 3-4 Inches , sifts it and dumps whatever in the Back of the Buggies 5 Gal Buckets.. I fillup 3-5ga buckets every 5 hr shift.. But anything of Value over 450 ea item or Spanish Gold coins is th eProperty of the The City.. I get paid 6 hr days shift that includes 1 hr getting ready adn cleaning up my Equptiment after.. 5 days wk. Mom Retired 5 yrs ago at age 74..
It is so much easier detecting in the dry sand. You need to discriminate against iron. All iron is junk. I detect at night so as not to be bothered. I find 8 to 18 dollars every time and many other items in 8 hours non-stop hunt.
+karl chebator Yea, at least the waves don't beat you up on land. Hahaha. That's a good idea. I'll have to try that one day. That's awesome to find that much change. Good for you!
I had a bad string of bobby pins last week myself. Must have found 12-15 of them, five of them in one hole! UGH! At least you have some good weather which allows for shorts and beach shoes. I've been bundling up in thick sweatpants , 2 pairs of socks and a heavy coat for my beach hunts this January. Come on Springtime! Let 'em laugh and keep on hunting! Or you could give a big "woohoo!" as you're shaking out the scoop the next time someone laughs at you and when they ask what you found, reach into your scoop and say "I think you lost this" as you reach into the scoop and produce a "flipping bird". =)
+nthemuseurodenon Oh I hate those things! Now that says to me that someone was being a turd by burying them knowing that eventually some poor metal detectorist would dig them up. Lol. Yes, I cannot compline about being on the beach during this time of year. :) LMAO!!! That's a fantastic idea! I'll have to remember that. :D
+benchedthatpiece Yea, I couldn't believe how many I found. I'm sure a VLF had been through there already. Luckily they missed those three coins. :D Thanks for watching!
+She Detector Na don't show them, you will know and they won't be crowding you when your out there. Another little tip for you go to HD or Lowe's or what have you and buy a cheap pair og garden gloves lot better than the big heavy leather ones especially trying to pick up small stuff. Great vidio once again and something to do while I wait for the snow to melt :(
chris anderson Yea, my current glove is actually my husbands. Lol. Unfortunately, I think you'll be waiting awhile. Hahaha. But that's alright. You can watch my videos on repeat if you like. :D
+She Detector :) I did and a couple more tips. The first is great for saving ware and tare on the old muscles. When you you locate your target and get a full scoop, instead of lifting it out of the hole just drag it back by your foot, sweep the hole. Now if the target is in the hole, just rotate the scoop to dump it, no need to lift. Or if you have a strong magnet on the end of a wood pole or stick, you can then probe the hole before sweeping and if it's a hair pin or any other iron or steel metal nine out of ten times you will recover it and can move on. This works great on the beach and in the water, or really any metal detecting scenario, even with a pin pointer you can chase a tiny piece of rusty metal, try the magnet first can really save a lot of time especially with a unit like yours. Next couple of quick tips if you don't have a coil cover buy a roll of gorilla tape(way stronger than duct tape, now basically cover the coil to protect it from wearing down, I have been doing this for years and when it starts wearing down just peel and replace. Coils wear out, especially if you follow my next tip. This works best in the water or dry sand, not on gravel. So you scooped up something and dumped and somewhere in there is a little treasure you can't see. Tip sweep over the top to locate target- drop the coil straight down and gently spread the pile with the coil always remember it's not a bulldozer. I have been detecting on and off for nearly 40 years and been using these tips with total success, of coarse all these take time to get used to but if you think out every move as you go by the end of a hunt you will have figured out you own rhythm. Sorry for being long winded but I believe some of this will help you and anyone that tries them. Snow turned to rain Yay!!! spring break?
chris anderson I like the idea of dragging it. I'll start doing that instead. Also good tip on the magnet on a stick. Yea I don't think they make a cover for my coil :/ Thanks for all the tips. I'm sure they will help me!
IT'S TIME TO HIT THAT SCHOOL OR THE FAIR GROUNDS MAYBE YOU'LL FIND ENOUGH SILVER COIN'S TO BUY A NICE PINPOINTER HOWEVER YOU'RE SHOWING ME TO STAY AWAY FROM THE BEACHES WHEN I GET THERE. GLAD TO SEE YOU FINALLY GOT SOME WATER SHOE'S..
+Greg Wierzbicki Yea, I'll be hitting the school first I think. There's sure to be silver! Yea, or maybe get there super early. I got there around 9 I think so I'm sure the area had already been hit. But, you never know. Yes I did and they are awesome! Hahaha.
I get a big kick out of hearing you laugh when your talking its funny ,, hay keep up the good work and keep on making more videos ,, keep on looking for that gold you will find it and happy hunting .
dear : queen of the watermelons , have a nice day first and i hope all your family fine so we are waiting any new video so don't forget to find elvis presley guitar because he was lose it it around the beach ha , i found a lot of silver rings but here in my country no body think to buy the sliver rings so when I find any i chose which one is good quality with special design and it will be perfect in my finger i use it , only a gold rings still the best to have a good value so i pray for my god for you and im sure in this year special you will find a big treasure , ( IN GOD WE TRUST ) REGARDS
+matar ali Thank you Matar! I hope you and your family are doing well also. I'll be doing some hunting this weekend for sure! It would be nice to find that guitar! That's cool that you're able to use them it they fit. Thank you for the prayers, I'll take everything I can get that's for sure!
+pancho preciado Well that really depends. They range significantly in price. The detector I'm using in this video cost me about $700. Actually, the three that I'm currently using, Garrett Sea Hunter, Fisher F19, and Whites MX Sport all range between $700 and $800. But you can get a simple Bounty Hunter machine for less than $100. Check on Kellycos website: www.kellycodetectors.com/catalog/metal-detectors?p=2 In fact, Kellyco carries seven different metal detectors from Bounty Hunter that are under $100. You'll have to read about them to learn the differences though. I've never used a Bounty Hunter myself but they are good machines.
+Bridget McCord Were you really? That's funny. Small world huh? I'm not opposed to doing some detecting with you. Of course I might bring your luck down! Hahahaha.
+She Detector You were not cold? Great video I wish you could have found a lot more coins . Especially old gold or silver ones. Take care hopefully you had a wonderful New Year's.
+ngford98 Abington ...it went good. I found $2.09 in clad. I also found two pieces of bling jewelry. of course, your usual trash...bottle tops, tent stakes and odds and ends. Hope your hunt turns out great...never know, I may run into ya.... :-)
ngford98 Abington Not to bad. I think it would be better to get there early, like when the sun first comes up. I'm pretty sure VLF machines had passed through already, that's why I dug so many bobby pins and little else.
That was very thoughtful of your man! It adds a nice touch to Rex. Looking forward to more hunts.
+Jamie Lotze I know! I was really surprised when he showed me. :D He's a good guy. Hehehe. Thanks for watching.
Interesting hunt.. Thanks, for sharing.
+Joe Posey You're very welcome. Thanks for watching!
I am laughing as I jealously watch you on the beach because of the winter storm we are in up north. I have recently got over worrying about other people and their opinions about what we do. It has made going out more enjoyable and allowed me to ask for, and receive many more permissions. Happy hunting, good luck!, and enjoy the weather down there!
+Dinger51 Hahaha, I can only imagine! Yea, I'll have to get there with you. I guess since I'm still so new to it, I'm not used to people stareing and laughing at me. Oh well I guess! HH to you as well if you're even able to hunt in the snow. Hehehe!
Gold, platinum and diamonds are most surely enroute.I found my first ring of the year today on my first hunt of the year!
I expect good things from that sand and look forward to watching you pull them out.
Great videos and thank you!
+Certain Discovery TR I sure hope so! That would be awesome. Oh that's fantastic, good job! Thank you for watching!
Good luck hunting and thank you for filling in your holes!
+Brad Hensley Thank you! Of course, metal detecting 101, always refill your holes. :)
been here lovely warm water wish it was like this in England
nice beach. I find on my SC beaches that I find d the most stuff aka coins near beach access walk ways over the dunes Down to beach or the towel lines where beach layout and play. glad you found out about the raptor handle cause T-Rex is a hand full with out it. can't wait for mind to arrive from gold diggers thanks to your advice. keep it up love watching you
Thank you! I've had some luck near the beach exits as well, mostly coins and garbage. :) Oh yes, the Raptor handle is very nice.
I used to live in Clearwater and Largo. I just started watching your videos so I'm not sure where all you've been but if you haven't been there, go to Treasure Island beach on Monday mornings after the drum circle on Sunday nights. I used to play in the drum circle out there and we regularly had a couple hundred people show up. You might have some really good luck hunting out there.
+Creep Factor Oh yea? They are both very nice. I've not been there, I'll have to look into that though. Thanks for the tip!
If you are having fun, and not hurting anybody, or their property, who cares if they are laughing. This is not a question, because a question requires an answer. I do enjoy the videos. One thing, you might want to re-scan what you pull out of the holes, just to make sure you are not missing anything. Even though your 'target' still seems to be in the hole, you might have pulled out a similar 'target'. Also if you get a plastic scoop, you can 'scan' the scoop to see if you picked up the target. Have fun. Still frozen in Oregon.
+RKE Round2iT Industries Yea, I do have fun. :) I'm glad you like my videos. That's a good tip. I usually rescan the holes, but I don't think I rescan the removed sand all the time. I'll try to make sure I do that. I'd hate to throw back a gold ring on accident! Yea, a plastic scoop would be nice. I can't even let the scoop get within 2 feet of the coil before it starts screaming. Ouch! I hope you guys at least get some sun, even if it's still cold! Thanks for watching!
Plenty of sun, but someone frogot to pay the heat bill out side here. :). I know it was not my turn...
RKE Round2iT Industries Lol
Awesome video once again She Detector.I've searched Clearwater Beach before on numerous occasions and have found clad coins and pull tabs.Indian a Rocks Beach is another great metal detecting location.
+David Crews Thank you! I'm just glad I didn't find any pull tabs, I'm sick of those things! Hahaha. I've not made it to that beach just yet. One day though I'm sure!
+She Detector How far is Rocks beach from you?
john harvey It's about 45 minutes from my home. Seems to be about 15-20 minutes south of Clearwater Beach.
That's a bit of a drive.. a whole day outing!
Great video! and keep at it ... the clad coins will keep coming and they will start adding up in no time
GL and HH
Van Jr.
+Lost and Found Metal Detecting Thank you! Thanks for watching and HH to you as well!
I'm all agog here awaiting your park adventure. (and your smaller jar) Heehee.
+hard yakka Hehehe, me to! I wasn't able to get out this weekend :( So I have to wait until this weekend coming up unfortunately. Yes, smaller jar indeed! Hehehe.
I following you and few others, I finally purchased a 9.5 T-Rex w/pole and small handle for under $90.00 thanks for the input on the T-Rex
+Hey You Well thanks for following, I appreciate the support! It's a great scoop. Since yours is bigger you'll be able to move more sand and shells which should be great. $90!? That's awesome! Great find right there.
Way To Go!! Good Luck The Rest Of The Year!!
+Dennis Hammer Thank you! GL to you as well. :)
Great job on the coins it is the best feeling when you get roundness in the hole . I live about 45 minuets from Tampa let me know if you ever want to go on a hunt .
+Relic Hunting Florida Thanks! I know, I love it when it's a coin. Oh, very cool. Small world huh? Hahaha. Yea I'll keep that in mind, thanks! And thanks for watching!
hurray coinage!dont let the beach bums bother you they are just pissed they dont have a detector lol.i ve never made it to the extreme south end of Florida but been to east and west. Clearwater was one of my favorite beaches.great vid makes me wanna come back and enjoy my cold horrible winter in florida beautiful.keep it up 👍
+Rob Plotts Yep! I think I agree with you. Or maybe they are jealous over my having the confidence to do this hobby in a public place. Hahaha. Who knows? It's a very nice beach for sure. The water seems to always be rough though... :/ You should totally come to Florida. It's much better! Hahaha. Thanks for watching!
You deserve more subscribers than you have now. Your channel is 20X better than the other metal detecting ones. GL AND HH :)
+Brad Hellerstedt Aww! That's so nice of you. I would love more subscribers for sure. Like R Adams has over 5k, nuggetnoggin has over 100k and deepdiggerdan has over 200k! It's building up though. Everyday it gets a little bigger. :) Thanks for watching!
+She Detector no problem! I know your account will get bigger over the days. Just keep believing and you will find something amazing. :) thanks for the reply! :D
I hunt Clearwater beach a lot and I get stared at and probably laughed at...but you have the right attitude... who cares... I love doing it!!!!!! You look like you do too!!!! Keep digging!!!!!!
+sehightower Do you? Small world! Hahaha. Yea, I figure they are just jealous...of what I'm not sure but I'm sticking with that! Hahaha!
+sehightower You to should set up a hunting date.. for fun also with a hunting buddy!
Hay Hunter how are the finds coming!?! me I am now holding at 21 gold rings 8 silver rings ect ect will need another machine soon . good luck kid keep em coming. PS lost my GO Pro so I am back to square one bummer adapt and overcome I guess...
Great videos She Detector. I see you got your detector at myers as well. Keep up the good work, cheers from Oldsmar.
+MrBryanBarry Thank you! I sure did, it's a small place but loaded with the goods! Oh you're a neighbor? Awesome!
After a while you learn to just tune out the spectators and just enjoy the hobby. I agree with dcox01, you will be the one laughing when you start recovering those gold rings!
GREAT Video.
+FenderStrat19711 Yea. Sometimes when I first start hunting for the day I get a little self conscious but then I start digging coins and I forget all about them. :) That's right! Or they will drop their ring and come running to me for help. :D Thank you and thanks for watching.
Last time I watched you were using your hubbie's homemade scoop, and before that shoveling with bare feet! The Barefoot She Detector, you were a legend already. Now I am jealous of your T-Rex scoop, and your lovely signed scoop handle. And I love your new beach shoes (well, when you're wearing them.). But, it's your attitude that is beyond priceless; happy with a few pennies, that's a good mindset to have. But, one day you'll have a yen for gold really bad, and that's when you should replace your sea hunter with a dual or multi-frequency vlf. A used Beach Hunter id would be about an even trade.
+So Be It Lol you're a few videos behind my friend! Hahaha yea, a legend in the metal detecting community as having no clue. Lol! The TRex is a beast! Glad I went with it for sure. And I love my modified handle! :D Hahaha yep, I think lots of people are happy to see the new shoes. Much more better than bare feet OR flip flops. Hahaha well I'll tell you, the past few hunts I've gone on all I came home with were pull tabs. I was more than pleased to come home with $0.27 and ZERO pull tabs. Lol. One day I'll upgrade to the Excal II. It's my dream machine.... ::sigh::
Glad to see you were wearing your magic slippers. I'm pretty sure they are the reason you found coins. Another nice video....well done.
+Steve Somer Yep! Hahaha, if that's the case I wouldn't be opposed to wearing several pairs! Thanks for watching!
Good video your having fun that's what counts keep it going
+Bobby Garmon Thank you! I agree, it is pretty fun.
my parents live in Florida the have a huge camper and travel around down there.its like 2 degrees in jersey this morning.no metal detecting for me till probly april.so keep makin your vids it keeps me a little sain
+Rob Plotts They have the right idea. You need to get on board! Hahaha. Sorry you can't get out until later in the year. :/ Hahaha, I'll keep making them for sure. I'll send a little sunshine to Jersey from Florida!
I was stationed on the USS forestall in mayport Fla. I have relatives in clear water,I spent a week there and we went to that same beach. MY cousin lost a gold necklace with her sweet 16 gold ring. That was the in 1977 I think. keep at it and good Luck and happy hunting in 2016 .
+Glenn Bell Yea, I know where that's at. I used to live in Kings Bay, not to far from there. Oh that sucks that she lost it. I'm sure someone found it by now though. But, who knows maybe it's still there waiting to be found. :D Thanks, and thanks for watching!
I drove up to that beach once from Sarasota. Got there at daybreak and there was already 7 other people detecting: 1 in the water on each side of the pier and the rest on dry sand. Needless to say I didn't find much!
+Greg Hollister Wow really? I guess I'm not surprised honestly. Clearwater is a huge attraction so it's pretty promising with the finds. But, knowing that there were only two water hunters sounds pretty promising for me! :)
glad to see you in the water again, and that you found coins this time!
+Effen Fish Yes, tell me about it! It was a great day. 1) Found coins, 2) didn't find pull tabs. :D
well done young lady (screw them) ? you got something for your jar anyway. Was expect a park detect with your new pin pointer. Glad to see Hubby naming your bits and pieces. Looking forward to your next video. It is all about how you play the game.
+hard yakka Thank you! Yea, I don't like being laughed at, :( That's right, I got to finally add something to the jar. It's been to long! Oh that's coming, don't you worry. I'm excited! Lol yea, it was very nice of him to add that. He surprises me with little things like that. :D Thanks for watching!
Like the shoes! great job on the video!
+Jaye Dee MUSIC Thank you!
Great video!Liked it!
+Panhandle Sharkteeth Thank you!
Hey hey your on the board. hehe. Here in Canada it`s not hard to find five bucks every time I get out to a park or beach. We have Loonies a twonies. So it adds up . The first year I started I found around 250 bucks. . .Cheers from Canada.
+lewandlo Hahaha. That's awesome that you bring in cash every time you go out. Lucky! Thanks for watching, from Canada even! :D
I'm in NY these days. Born in Gulfport, Fl. That beach is so old I bet there is good stuff there. Go there please. I like your vids. thanks
+Treasure Shaman Oh that's a huge chance of scenery for sure! I'm sure there's great stuff to be found, I just need to find it. Hahaha. I'll try to get to Gulfport, thanks for the tip. And thanks for watching!
+She Detector That maybe where that Pirate chest is!!!
I've got a CTX 3030 but new into detecting. I found my first gold ring and silver/gold plated earring a couple of weeks ago at Daytona. I was at Madeira beach last Tuesday with little luck but fun. A smart phone and about 43 cents. I think low tide is at 1ish but I'll be there about 11am.
+ngford98 Abington Well welcome to the hobby. I'm still pretty new myself. Only been doing it about 6 months. That's awesome, those are great finds! A phone? Hahaha, great find. Can't do anything with it I'm sure but still pretty cool. Well good luck, I hope you find something great!
+She Detector well I hit Daytona beach again today. One 10k white gold band and one silver (925) diamond earring. I'm on a roll lol. I'm definitely going to hit up Clearwater Beach next Sunday. Going to the Frenchy's parking lot area. I'll be there two hours before low tide like I did today in Daytona. If your out that why say hi. Hope you are going to get your first gold/silver this week.
ngford98 Abington That's fantastic! Not sure when I'll be hunting, or where, but if I make it down to Clearwater, I'll make sure to say hi. :) Good luck to you though!
All those bobby pins are why I do not like PI machines. GL&HH.
+WildDigger Hahaha yea. I can open my own hair salon now. :) Thanks for watching and HH to you as well.
People laugh at what they don't understand cuz it makes them feel better about there own shortcummings. Love your vids. Keep on trucking!! 😈
Food for thought......
GREAT HUNT , LOVE BEACH HUNTING, ONLY IN FLORIDA TWICE A YEAR, FOUND MY FIRST BEACH RING ON PANAMA CITY BEACH BACK IN MAY, BUT ALAS WAS ONLY A STAINLESS WEDDING BAND BUT A COOL FIND, HAPPY HUNTING!
+David Stadtlander Thanks! That's awesome that you found a ring, especially if you're only able to visit twice a year. Thanks for watching!
I also have spent hundreds of hours detecting that beach with several videos made. Will be there soon for the last time during spring break. Afterwards will be moving to upstate Ga. Happy hunting.
+karl chebator Oh very cool. Find anything good?
cell phones,gold tooth caps,four iPods,much silver jewelry,two gold rings,a watch with a hundred dollar bill, class ring,old wheat pennies ,1200 hundred in coins (in 2 years)
+karl chebator Wow! That's fantastic! Well I'll be hunting Clearwater Beach this weekend, with my new detector of course! I'm excited to see what I'm find. I'm really hoping for something great!
+She Detector It will get better soon with spring break starting. I will be waiting two weeks before I detect. Won't see you because I detect at night (carry taser for protection)
Middle of March to Aug. best. Good luck.
karl chebator That's true. Oh ok, well at least you don't have to deal with people bothering your or watching you. Hahaha nice! Good luck to you as well!
People laughing at you? Yeah, they do it to me sometimes, too. And you are right, screw them. You are out doing it, and they can't, living a life they can only dream of. Soldier on! Oh, and love that pouch from Meyer's Metal Detectors. I am a local (and native) and shop there, too.
I can't stand people watchers. You are doing good, keep doing what you are doing and you will fine something good. Thank you for making these videos
Thank you! And thanks for watching.
Well metal detectorist don't care if people laugh because we're doing what we love. happy hunting. Subed your channel will be watching more thanks
+DDM Metal Detectives Yea that's true. Thanks for watching and subscribing!
I watched your video showing off your new pin pointer and that trick regarding depth. I like my old black pin pointer as it hasn't much depth because I have to use a pick to dig my hard soils (not frozen either) . If I don't get any feed back from my pin pointer I knowhat I can wack the ground hard with my pick. Not good to hit the coin your recovering otherwise you get called two stroke. One for the hole and one for the coin.
+hard yakka Awesome! Oh man, that's not cool having to use a pick. Yea, I could understand not wanting more depth. Hehehe. Yea, I would hate to find a really rare coin and realize I hit it with the pick. Yikes!
I know this area well. Best times of my life.
+Floydd Oh yea? Very cool. Thanks for watching.
It looks to me that Clearwater beach is a much better place to hunt I don't know how much of a drive it is for you to get there but I think that the prospects are much better than Sunset beach. I'm heading back to Pismo Beach on Friday the incoming storms and high tides have been churning up the beach so maybe I will find some good stuff Wish me luck. Good luck on your adventures and don't sweat the people watching They have no idea what can be found on the beach.
+Stephen Stonacek It is for sure. It's only about 20-30 minute drive. Not terrible really. Now that the summer people are gone, and hopefully the snow birds, I'm going to try to hit it more often. Oh that's great, I hope you find something awesome! I'm wishing you tons of good luck! :) Yea, they are missing out. But that's alright, more for me to find!
Nice day there..was hoping to see a long video..sounds nice with waves crashing. Maybe it would be beneficial to show yourself hunting instead of just when you hear something. You may be walking and swinging way too slow. If your walking faster you will hear a signal and just back up for it. If you walking to slow your going to hear every deep piece of junk. Don't worry ..if there is a ring you will hear it. Try doubling your pace and swing..try it! Showing your pace and a longer video there you'll have more detectorist able to give you advice. Maybe state your settings as you go along also. and talk about your frustrations and questions in your mind while hunting. Cant help if we don't know your problems! lol How long did you hunt? Did you try around the pilings and under the pier? Nice beach and there has to be thousands of rings in the water and sand! Hope you get you Carrot soon! Always go up and meet and talk to any detectorists you come across...no telling what they may help you with.. most want to help newbies! See what they have found.. should be glad to show you! Hugs and HH next time! ;)
+john harvey Yea it wasn't to bad. I would've made it longer but the rest of my videos were nothing buy bobby pins! Hahaha. I thought about that, but I worry people might get bored. Maybe I'll start working that in though. I'll give it a try. I guess I always thought going fast could cause me to miss something, guess not though. I was out for about two hours. The beach started getting crowded and the meter was almost up. I didn't get to close to the pilings but I did go under the pier. I didn't find anything but bobby pins under there though :/ I'll make sure to talk to them all. One guy approached me though. Said he watched some of my videos and wanted to introduce himself! I couldn't believe it. I was like, it's official, I'm famous. Lol! So, there is someone out there that knows what I look like. :D
dear : queen of the watermelons , congratulations to found some of coins and all that one for women's hear you found more than 6 so I think this is a women's area ha ha so i think sure you can find some of gold rings here because when have more women's have also more treasures so i saw the new things come with you , in last video you be more active so it's good to have more chances when you dig here and there , im really so happy for you and im also sure in next time you will find a watermelons sorry a gold boxes . congratulations again and have good luck , regards (IN GOD WE TRUST )
+matar ali Thank you! Hahaha yea, I think I might agree with you. I'll be hitting that beach again for sure! Lol I'd be alright finding another watermelon, it's better than a pull tab any day! But the gold is much better.
+She Detector Hell that was a $6 watermelon you threw away!!! lol
john harvey Lol good point!
6.56 did you say a describing work lol , we all say them with bottle caps ,
+metal detecting QLD “Drew” Lol no. I went back and listened to it though and it does sound like I said something else. I added a comment to the video. :D I'm sure I was thinking it though!
O and if people laugh ,let them. who cares! u keep doing what ur doing. I'm going to start my own detecting down here in Texas. good luck!
+Jaye Dee MUSIC Yea, I try to ignore them. Oh now I bet you can find some awesome stuff depending on where you hunt. With all the Mexican-American battles I'm sure there's lots of goodies waiting to be dug up. Good luck to you as well. Thanks for watching!
nice to see some coins in your basket. keep em coming!
+Pete Burns You're telling me! It was a great day 1) because I found coins and 2) because I DIDN'T find any pull tabs!! Lol
She, don't worry about those VLF units, a pulse machine is the deepest on any wet salt beach bar none. The VLF will get you on iron disc. but will pass right over stuff that you can get with ease. Remember, pulse is king in salt. If I wanted the best machine for dry sand then yes, a VLF. If the VLF is not waterproof though, salt mist air can find it's way into the electronics and ruin a machine, even if you don't enter the water. I would use my AT Pro on a dry sand beach, and in fact it works really well on the wet sand too. In the salt water PI units rule though. The MineLab Excalibur ll will really do well in salt, because it's made for it. That machine will set you back $1500.00 bucks though. PI's are still deeper in salt from what I have seen. MineLab uses multi frequency BBS technology which is far better then a VLF single frequency unit, but a PI will pick up stuff they missed at depth. So after someone with an Excal grid hunts an area or spirals out, go over it with your Sea Hunter MKll and you might be surprised what you can find that was just out of his reach.
+Artie813 Yea, and I've heard that most VLF people don't dig things that are really deep. So I have a huge advantage. Yea it's funny what salt can do. It's not kind at all. The other guy that was detecting in the dry sand had the Excalibur. I thought I was going to have to fight him for my water spot but he didn't even get close to the water. :) I didn't know that. That's good to know. I'll be that guys shadow if I see him again. He'll be like, "go away!" Lol.
+She Detector NO No No... get to know the the guy..that's what this hobby is really all about! You can find good items much faster having a friend hunting and developing strategies together! Believe me! And when you run out of a battery charge early he just may have an extra detector in the car! I have 3 charged detectors in my car all times. lol
john harvey That's awesome that you go prepared like that. I'll make sure to chat with everyone I see for sure! Who knows, maybe my luck will go up if I go out with more experienced detectorists. :)
Thats how I learned quickly by showing genuine interest in their opinions and a number thru the years are friends still and hunting buddy's.
HI She, stick with it and that gold ring will show up very soon. You just gotta get your coil over it. Try hunting the popular summer beach areas at low tide, and look for the low spots where the shells accumulate. Also, look for small pools of water and wet spots. When you start finding heavier stuff like sinkers and quarters, work that area hard because the medium and heavier gold should be in with these items. Take note that tiny gold can be anywhere. After a storm and low tide are two great times to hunt, as you can get to the deeper stuff since the storm will cause some eroding and pull sand out so deeper targets will be in reach. Check out surfdigger's videos. The guy is a top notch beach hunter, and he has some of the best beach detecting tips on UA-cam. I also use the Sea hunter MK ll. Here's some other tips: Bobby pins will give a slight double beep most of the time. Also, when you get a target, sweep it in all directions and if you get a solid crisp sound, then dig it. If you're in doubt, dig it. Good Luck, and Happy Hunting.
+Artie813 I'm hoping so. :) Yea, I'm hoping to get a low tide this weekend. Last weekend I went out around 9 and low tide wasn't until 12. :/ Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind when I go out this weekend. It's funny you mention that, I've noticed a few times the double beep but I always think there's two targets down there. Lol. Me being optimistic I guess. That's what's hard, I'll hear a faint target and dig it because I'm scared it could be something great. Oh well. It's a sure way of not missing anything I guess. Thanks, GL and HH to you as well.
+She Detector Double beep is hitting both ends of the bobby pin,nail,rod etc. turn 90 degrees and there will be only one beep when vertical to you.
john harvey Really? Alright, I'll try to remember to do that next time I hear a double beep.
Lay a piece of 6" stl. rod or one of hubbys wrenchs on the ground and hit it from different angles.. you'll see.
john harvey Alright, I'll try that tonight when I get home. Very interesting...
clearwater beach metal . I started watching you then , and got into metal detecting after that . I find horse shoes and horse buckles ,I hunt in the woods . love it .been doing it over a year . I live in Bensalem pa.,,,,,, please enter me in the contest
Thanks for watching! Make sure to leave your comment on the video for the contest. I can't add you from this video. You can leave the same comment, it just needs to be on the video for the contest. Good luck!
you need a pin pointer. I actually hate water detecting but have gotten the most silver rings in one day. 15. that was in one area that was all marked off for swimming. It was like shooting fish in a barrel. The whole time it was like, ring, ring ,ring.
+scott firman No doubt. Luckily I've gotten one since this video, and I love it!! Wow 15!? That's amazing.
If you pinpoint off the heel of the coil and put the scoop behind the coil before you move the coil away, you likely scoop less times per target.
+leafster99 I'll try that the next time I go out. Thanks for the tip! Thanks for watching also!
+She Detector That's what you do in the water... find it with the back of coil...put your toe up against coin in the back then put your scoop right in front or a little behind where big toe was behind coil...don't move that foot till you have your scoop there in place.
yes, even better. Thanks John
yes, even better. Thanks John
yes, even better. Thanks John
Cool video! I have terrible luck at the beach by me. :( lol But I'm sure you will find gold soon! GL&HH
+DirtFishingCanada Thank you! Yea, the beaches close to me seem to only produce pull tabs, this one at least had some coins. Thanks for watching, GL and HH to you as well!
Screw them! I love your attitude.
great video!!! I can see your getting more confident with your machine!! im seeing gold in your future!!
+NH beach metaldetecting Thank you!
Cool! Congratulations on the coins! Good luck in 2016!
+StefanrDetecting Thanks! Good luck to you as well on your hunts. :D
Nice video. Good to see a woman in the hobby for a change. I am from Daytona Beach myself. I have to ask how you like that mark II, because I have one arriving tomorrow. Hope to do well with it. And I wonder how you became interested in metal detecting? Best of luck!....Oh, and don't worry.... you will have a payday soon enough!
+Don Wilson (diggin Time USA) Thank you! I agree, there should be more. It's a great machine if you don't mind digging everything. It goes really deep. You'll dig two feet down for a pull tab, easy. Once it gets warmer I plan on doing some underwater videos. That should be interesting. Check out my video, All About Beaker. I did an air test showing what it sounds like but I also show what happens when you adjust the settings a little bit. I actually got into this hobby kind of by accident. I saw a video of a guy using a Vibra-Tector 730 and thought it would be cool to use out on the boat so I bought one. Then I upgraded to a full size detector after about 2 months. Now I go out almost every weekend. I sure hope so! Thanks for watching!
thanks for the fast reply. I received my mark II today and did a quick air test. The Sea hunter Mark II adds the 6th metal detector to my arsenal....Ha, ha. The only thing I don't care for is the wobbly shaft, but I can fix that. I wanted a PI for the beach specifically because I plan on going home soon. Look forward to your future videos. Maybe we can hunt together some time. Best of luck!
Don Wilson That's awesome, 6 detectors! Wow. Yea, it's wobbly for sure. I make sure to tighten all the knobs before heading out to try reduce that. It still wobbles though. Yea sure, I'm up for hunting with people. Be for warned, I might bring your luck down. Lol.
Great Video I put up a new one this weekend found a bunch of coins nothing old but oh well you should check it out. i like the personalized scoop now the husband did a good job.
+Caleb Bennington Awesome, coins are better than nothing! Hahaha. I'll check them out for sure. Yea, I think it looks great and he did an awesome job. Thanks for watching!
Classic reaction to a bottle cap find at 6:54! I was LMFAO!
+da2moso Lol
it's good see that you have a sand scoop this time and shoes,and not your spade a bare feet that couldn't have been comfortable I was concerned that you might accidentally chop your toes off :) metal decting in the uk is a lot different having Vikings, Romans and Anglo Saxons and medievil ,I guess that's why I watch your vids you find day today relics and coins
+James Beards Yes, they both help so much! Yea, the shovel wasn't for efficient at all. Hahaha. Yea, I could understand your wanting to see people find "normal" stuff. I wouldn't mind finding an old timey relic like those though! At least once anyways. :)
Sorry I meant that watching your vids. is great. Not that you should show your face. By not showing your face is like your calling card. People will still wonder what you look like but it's your go gettem' positive attitude that everybody wants to see. You and beeker are still new to this, but with time and patience you will become the detectorist that is inside of you . That's what everyone wants see. The anticipation and your response of that first great find will be priceless!! SPOON!!! :)) Will be waiting for your next Vid. ATB GL&HHP.S. Most people I see at the Parks have no idea what I'm doing. Don't sweat the small stuff.
+Ray Kimbrell Well I'm glad you like my videos. I agree with you that it's like my calling card. Yea I still have lots to learn for sure! LOL I pray it's not a spoon but I guess if it is, I'll be one step closer to having a complete set of silverware. I'll just need a knife! Hehehe. HH and GL to you as well!
Coin cleaning Tip: badly grubby coins : place coins in a saucepan cover with pure olive oil (costs 80p) heat until you see coins fry for about 30 second either side ,this method won't damage the coin but will remove corrosion and embedded dirt
+James Beards That's the first time I've heard this cleaning option. Sounds for interesting. I'll have to remember to try that. Thanks!
Ouch, that bottle top certainly made you work hard and I think that's the first time I've heard you swear :P (and certainly don't blame you at that point!) As for anyone watching on laughing (and hopefully they weren't!) if they ever do, keep in mind that you have nearly 1500 subscribers silently cheering you on in the background as well! :)
+Simon Burton Hehehe yea it did. They seem to do that to me... not sure why. Hahaha yea, they hurt my feelings. :( But you're right, I'm extremely happy to know that I've got all of you supporting me and that makes me smile. :D
+She Detector Got enough subs
to make some money off the promoters.. they start paying at 500 subs!
She Detector Speaking of the channel earning money, is there any mechanism for making donations to the channel as yet? I was really happy to see you are about to get a Pinpointer and it would be an honor to contribute towards it if possible?
***** I think youtube has something like that. I've scanned over it but not in depth. I didn't look more into it because I didn't want people to think I was just looking for money. I'm extremely flattered that you would want to help me get my pin pointer! Hehehe, that's so nice of you! You guys are so nice!!!
+She Detector Understood and as with most things I've seen on your channel you have a pleasant attitude. If you do happen to set up a Paypal donation button somewhere (or PM me the details if that's easier) am happy to contribute. Whatever helps - I think we'd all love to see you find gold. Mind you, by stumbling across your channel, I've already found some ;)
I use to live there! DO NOT hunt on the left side of the pier about 30 yards out! Before it got destroyed by a hurricane a number of years ago there was a cut off there and people would throw coins off and make a wish. You can't move your coil more than 6 inches without hitting a coin! If you want to find coints and jewelry hunt at the beginning of the pier next to the restaurants, people drop coins on their way to the restaurants.
Keep it up. The jar will be full soon.
+Frank Considine Thanks! I sure hope so. Hehehe.
Another nice video!! Don't worry about the few people who like to make fun; you have all of us watching you and loving your videos!!! ☺☺☺☺
+Chas Man Thank you! Yea I agree. But it's the first time that I've noticed people laughing... not so nice to my feelings. :/. But I'm glad I've got all of you that enjoy watching. :D
+She Detector Who has been laughing at you?
Food Stamp Some random guys at Clearwater Beach. I'll never see them again so it's not a big deal.
She Detector Do you know when you're going to let us know about your surprise? If anyone else ever laughs at what you're doing. Don't let it get to you. I believe people do stuff like that because deep down they have insecurities about themselves. And they believe that bullying and making fun of people is going to make them feel better about themselves. When in doesn't.
Food Stamp Sure! I posted a video on my facebook page showing my surprise(s) (more than one!) I got my pin pointer finally! YEY!!! You've got a very good point. I think they were probably jealous that I have the guts to something "silly" like metal detecting in public. :)
hi she detector i was wondering if that was a magnet on the scoop and if so does it work well.. i detect out here in new england (massachusettes) and never seen that before.
+jeff rebello Hi there! It sure is. I've got two of them in my scoop. It does work great but only on the iron items and bottle caps. It doesn't catch aluminum or pull tabs (same thing pretty much), or coins. I've not found any gold but it shouldn't catch that either. I'm not sure about silver, I've not found any of that since installing the magnets. They are great with beach detecting, not sure it would come in handy with land detecting.
+jeff rebello We all have Earth Magnets in our scoops and on our trowels.. Saves much time!
+She Detector will not attach to any non ferrous metal!
a bad day of detecting beats a good day at work....
+Silas Tigusiaq Here here!!
be glad when you find a ring want to see what you look like yes!!
+john flynn Hahaha yea! I'm getting impatient too because I want to say hi to everyone. :)
we all have those days where we just find more trash then treasure..lol do you do any land hunts? I would love to live close to the beach.
+matt hyde You're telling me! Hahaha. I've done two I think so far. I'm mostly a beach hunter but I am branching out a bit. :)
cool:) how many detectors do you have?
+matt hyde I have two detectors. A Garrett Sea Hunter MK II and a Fisher Labs F19. :)
Great vid. Let them laugh when you hit the big find you'll be the one laughing.
+dcox01 Thanks! You're very right. One day I'll show them!
I was wondering you already have a good fan base. I've seen other utubers that started out with just a few subs. but they kept at it and now have viewers in the millions. Do you hope to have the same? The utubers who have been doing this for years have let us see there children from toddlers to young adults. I think it would be great to see you the way you are now just learning the detector trade to becoming a great detectorist. Just wondering. ATB & HH
+Ray Kimbrell It would be awesome to have millions, or even several thousand. Deep Digger Dan has over 200k! That's true. I guess it does make it more personable. I have been thinking about showing my face in the future. But I think I'll maybe save it for when I find my first ring or something. Hahaha. Thanks for asking. It's nice to know people want to know more about me. :)
yea my work keeps me here in jersey stinks but the pay is ok
+Rob Plotts I hear ya!
Looks like Naples Pier.. And Nice to show the Real Dark Side of MD and how disappointinng it can be and usually is..But Nodoy is Laughing at you..I'd tell them your outhere for Hire and get $55 hr lus 50% of what your find for the City.. Our Cities Lost adn Found is Loaded with stuff...More than Pay for my Wages and Beneifts.. this used to be my Mothers Job for 31 yrs.. its alittle tough in the Summers( Super hot) but I use unbrella's and even riding in a Dune Buggy with a large Scooper that digs down 3-4 Inches , sifts it and dumps whatever in the Back of the Buggies 5 Gal Buckets.. I fillup 3-5ga buckets every 5 hr shift.. But anything of Value over 450 ea item or Spanish Gold coins is th eProperty of the The City.. I get paid 6 hr days shift that includes 1 hr getting ready adn cleaning up my Equptiment after.. 5 days wk. Mom Retired 5 yrs ago at age 74..
12:51 Watch out---potential Bobby pin thief!
+brewster102 Hahahaha, probably!
I have metal detected in that area. I have found around 3 silver rings no gold yet thought
+unknowned sensation Yea? Oh that's awesome! I wish I could find one. :/ One day though!
one small item that could help. Get a smaller treasure JAR. LOL.
+hard yakka Lol I should totally get a smaller jar. It wouldn't look so sad that way. Good thinking!
Rayyyy!! The girl gets coins😃 I predict a silver ring in your near future... Just a feelin..
+Tony Eisenhower Yes, it was a great hunt! 1) I found coins, 2) no pull tabs! WOO!!! I sure hope so. You guys will be the first to know for sure.
I been hunting in Pompano Beach and al I got is coins from the USA
Oh yea? I've never been there. Coins are still nice though. I'd take a coin any day! Hahaha.
tell those waves to knock it off for a second. LOL The suspense is killing me. I hope it lasts.
+Floydd Hahahaha! I know right! :)
It is so much easier detecting in the dry sand. You need to discriminate against iron. All iron is junk. I detect at night so as not to be bothered. I find 8 to 18 dollars every time and many other items in 8 hours non-stop hunt.
+karl chebator Yea, at least the waves don't beat you up on land. Hahaha. That's a good idea. I'll have to try that one day. That's awesome to find that much change. Good for you!
I had a bad string of bobby pins last week myself. Must have found 12-15 of them, five of them in one hole! UGH! At least you have some good weather which allows for shorts and beach shoes. I've been bundling up in thick sweatpants , 2 pairs of socks and a heavy coat for my beach hunts this January. Come on Springtime!
Let 'em laugh and keep on hunting! Or you could give a big "woohoo!" as you're shaking out the scoop the next time someone laughs at you and when they ask what you found, reach into your scoop and say "I think you lost this" as you reach into the scoop and produce a "flipping bird". =)
+nthemuseurodenon Oh I hate those things! Now that says to me that someone was being a turd by burying them knowing that eventually some poor metal detectorist would dig them up. Lol. Yes, I cannot compline about being on the beach during this time of year. :) LMAO!!! That's a fantastic idea! I'll have to remember that. :D
Coins are good, bobby pins not so much. The main thing is you're having fun enjoying yourself, that's what matters! Nice job on this!
+benchedthatpiece Yea, I couldn't believe how many I found. I'm sure a VLF had been through there already. Luckily they missed those three coins. :D Thanks for watching!
+She Detector Na don't show them, you will know and they won't be crowding you when your out there.
Another little tip for you go to HD or Lowe's or what have you and buy a cheap pair og garden gloves lot better than the big heavy leather ones especially trying to pick up small stuff.
Great vidio once again and something to do while I wait for the snow to melt :(
chris anderson Yea, my current glove is actually my husbands. Lol. Unfortunately, I think you'll be waiting awhile. Hahaha. But that's alright. You can watch my videos on repeat if you like. :D
+She Detector :) I did and a couple more tips. The first is great for saving ware and tare on the old muscles.
When you you locate your target and get a full scoop, instead of lifting it out of the hole just drag it back by your foot, sweep the hole. Now if the target is in the hole, just rotate the scoop to dump it, no need to lift. Or if you have a strong magnet on the end of a wood pole or stick, you can then probe the hole before sweeping and if it's a hair pin or any other iron or steel metal nine out of ten times you will recover it and can move on. This works great on the beach and in the water, or really any metal detecting scenario, even with a pin pointer you can chase a tiny piece of rusty metal, try the magnet first can really save a lot of time especially with a unit like yours.
Next couple of quick tips if you don't have a coil cover buy a roll of gorilla tape(way stronger than duct tape, now basically cover the coil to protect it from wearing down, I have been doing this for years and when it starts wearing down just peel and replace. Coils wear out, especially if you follow my next tip.
This works best in the water or dry sand, not on gravel. So you scooped up something and dumped and somewhere in there is a little treasure you can't see. Tip sweep over the top to locate target- drop the coil straight down and gently spread the pile with the coil always remember it's not a bulldozer.
I have been detecting on and off for nearly 40 years and been using these tips with total success, of coarse all these take time to get used to but if you think out every move as you go by the end of a hunt you will have figured out you own rhythm. Sorry for being long winded but I believe some of this will help you and anyone that tries them.
Snow turned to rain Yay!!! spring break?
chris anderson I like the idea of dragging it. I'll start doing that instead. Also good tip on the magnet on a stick. Yea I don't think they make a cover for my coil :/ Thanks for all the tips. I'm sure they will help me!
What Camera do you use? Thanks..
I use a GoPro Hero 4 Silver. :)
IT'S TIME TO HIT THAT SCHOOL OR THE FAIR GROUNDS MAYBE YOU'LL FIND ENOUGH SILVER COIN'S TO BUY A NICE PINPOINTER HOWEVER YOU'RE SHOWING ME TO STAY AWAY FROM THE BEACHES WHEN I GET THERE. GLAD TO SEE YOU FINALLY GOT SOME WATER SHOE'S..
+Greg Wierzbicki Yea, I'll be hitting the school first I think. There's sure to be silver! Yea, or maybe get there super early. I got there around 9 I think so I'm sure the area had already been hit. But, you never know. Yes I did and they are awesome! Hahaha.
I get a big kick out of hearing you laugh when your talking its funny ,, hay keep up the good work and keep on making more videos ,, keep on looking for that gold you will find it and happy hunting .
+1JRrambo Hahaha, well I'm glad you're enjoying it. You'll love the video I'm posting today...filled with me laughing at myself. :) Thanks!
dear : queen of the watermelons , have a nice day first and i hope all your family fine so we are waiting any new video so don't forget to find elvis presley guitar because he was lose it it around the beach ha , i found a lot of silver rings but here in my country no body think to buy the sliver rings so when I find any i chose which one is good quality with special design and it will be perfect in my finger i use it , only a gold rings still the best to have a good value so i pray for my god for you and im sure in this year special you will find a big treasure , ( IN GOD WE TRUST ) REGARDS
+matar ali Thank you Matar! I hope you and your family are doing well also. I'll be doing some hunting this weekend for sure! It would be nice to find that guitar! That's cool that you're able to use them it they fit. Thank you for the prayers, I'll take everything I can get that's for sure!
64 is nice, not chilly! From Wisconsin.
+Caryn Schwengel Hahaha yea, its' nothing compared to your weather that's for sure! Thanks for watching.
How much is a metal detector? I want one bad
+pancho preciado Well that really depends. They range significantly in price. The detector I'm using in this video cost me about $700. Actually, the three that I'm currently using, Garrett Sea Hunter, Fisher F19, and Whites MX Sport all range between $700 and $800. But you can get a simple Bounty Hunter machine for less than $100. Check on Kellycos website: www.kellycodetectors.com/catalog/metal-detectors?p=2 In fact, Kellyco carries seven different metal detectors from Bounty Hunter that are under $100. You'll have to read about them to learn the differences though. I've never used a Bounty Hunter myself but they are good machines.
So that's where all my girlfriends bobby pins go. >.
+FAQarseholes Hahahaha! Tell her to keep them in her hair! :)
Yea screw them ! I wish nothing but good luck for 2016 and maybe I'll talk my wife into moving to Florida this year. Lol
+Maurilio Zamora Yea! Well thank you and I'm sure she'll love it. If she loves the sun and the water I think you'll win her over for sure. :)
Ha ha ha, I was there, on the other side of the pier up by Frenchy's.....
maybe we can buddy up sometime....
+Bridget McCord Were you really? That's funny. Small world huh? I'm not opposed to doing some detecting with you. Of course I might bring your luck down! Hahahaha.
+Bridget McCord How did it go. I'm planning on going there on the 17th.
+She Detector You were not cold? Great video I wish you could have found a lot more coins . Especially old gold or silver ones. Take care hopefully you had a wonderful New Year's.
+ngford98 Abington ...it went good. I found $2.09 in clad. I also found two pieces of bling jewelry.
of course, your usual trash...bottle tops, tent stakes and odds and ends.
Hope your hunt turns out great...never know, I may run into ya.... :-)
ngford98 Abington Not to bad. I think it would be better to get there early, like when the sun first comes up. I'm pretty sure VLF machines had passed through already, that's why I dug so many bobby pins and little else.
6:57 lol.. happens to me all the time
How about bugs for your carrot? Just a thought HH
+Ray Kimbrell What is that? Another trick to make the pin pointer more awesome? :)
screw them is right,like your attitude!
have you ever found any gold
I have actually. I found a 14k gold ring and a 10k gold ring. That's it though. The rest were silver or some other metal. :)
watch these goldhounds nugget recovery on you tube.
+hard yakka I'll check them out. Thanks!
