Talacre today

[Resurgam]

Well, with the BBC weather man promising good weather all day today, I have decided to give the sands at Talacre an other going over with the C-Scope CS4PI and see if I can finally capture some decent finds.

With a very low tide this morning and an almost imperceptible shift of sand in some areas; perhaps the beach is ready to give up some of her secrets.

Best of luck today, look forward to seeing pics of your finds

Alas, hit the beach early and commenced detecting a pre planned area that I had been investigating and came up with zilch! Interestingly the selected area was unusually devoid of WWII scrap and I only turned up one .303 projectile.

Moving down to the low water mark, I got target after target that turned out to be iron boat fittings. I hate the wet sand; bloomin EuroAce also hates it and my CS4PI can't tell the difference between a gold ring and a washer!

I'm not knocking either machine but am starting to envy Safari owners who can waltz from dry sand to wet and back again suffering no problems.

Never mind; maybe next time will produce the goodies!

I use the Sov Gt on the wet you can't beet it lost count of the rings that i have found with it and coins did use PI but to much digging of the iron crap now it is a pleasure to work the wet sand.

I have been thinking about getting a "Safari" and am presently saving up and putting the money into Premium Bonds until I have enough set aside to make the purchase. With the money in Bonds, I am less likely to spend it on a whim and I stand a chance of winning a little more.
