Beach detecting at night!

[CHAMPUSS]

Night time is ace.I work nights,an go metal detecting afterwards on the beach.no body about no to pest me saying found anything LOL.besides it keeps me ahead of the game,as most peeps detect when it is day light.

You would have to be a brave fearless person to do it at night. You never know whats about or whos about. Id never walk down a dark beach alone at night with headphones on. People being mugged/robbed is virtually a daily occurrence in this day and age for one thing

samalite headlamp's are great if your out at night i used one for night fishing for years, it's like having a car headlamp on yout forehead

Best of luck....have done it a few times but no more

Too many wierdos hang around the dunes drinking etc, bad enough when you can see them during the day but one night I was out and turned around to find four lads like zombies, out of their heads, behind me....they said nothing but followed me for about another 15 minutes. I hadnt heard them with my headphones on but got out of dodge first chance I had sw;

Anyway keep safe and if you can get a buddy to go with you for safety

I understand some people are a bit wary about detecting on a beach at night ,and its understandable, but I aint one of them, or worried about being mugged ,(Id probably do the mugging)if I thought like that I d prob stay in all the time watchin soaps.NO THANKS. however I would nt advise any women or youngsters to go out alone in the dark.

A couple of months ago a photographer was hit over the head and all his camera equipment stolen at Talacre. I aint a killjoy but would still advise detecting with a buddy at night.
