Possible to detect on pebble beaches?

Post by miracleboy »

Not sure if it's possible, or if my detector would even do it, it's a CScope 990XD. All the local beaches are pebble only. :(

Hi miracleboy,
not sure about your md but i have had no problems detecting over pepples, my problem is digging the sodding things :)). However if you take it steady and use your probre you should see your finds abit easier than with black muddy sand with the water filling up the holes, not that I am complaining of course Southsea is a beautiful beach 8-} 8-}
