Went back in the woods again where I've been able to find some silver in the past. The roadblocks were down for that area and I got a real early start (9:30 am is early for me!). Out in a middle area I hit a great high tone about a half hour in but it was real jumpy. Couldn't target it well so I dug about a 12" diameter plug. Whatever it was, it pinpointered on high with the Garrett carrot further down near the side of the plug. Popped out another plug at the bottom of the first one and that 25S Merc was at the bottom, I'd say about 8" (11" Pro coil today!) Then hit the Girl Scout pin about 40 minutes later and scoured that area for an hour with absolutely nothing but screw caps and can tops. Kept moving and wound up in an area that had what really looked like an old walking trail, but now slightly overgrown. 15 minutes down that path hit the 44 Washington off the side of a tree root about 6" down. Meandering my way back to the parking area hit the good luck token, which is from a very popular amusement park that was shut down in the mid sixties. Both Deb and I have fond memories of the place from the grade school trips we took there. Then crossed a bridle path and went searching a flat and nicely wooded area, working the ravine edges first. Not five minutes in hit the 46 Rosie! It was getting seriously gray up in the sky and was around 3:30pm so I called it and headed back to the truck. I've been through this area many times with some great and zip results. Today was a good day and I was happy to be back at the truck and ready to head for home!
Have fun out there and HAPPY HUNTING!!
