hi,back to the same spot today conditions perfect, big tide for here, out to the swimming lane,various coins but had a first 1937 buffalo nickel. along with the usual sinkers came a tiny 18ct ring and at 1.2 g my smallest yet, a 9ct ladies wedding band just as the tide rushed in, had to go as i was using my tdi pro to get the extra depth but it is not waterproof, tides still good for another few days will be back for more good luck.
