I was on the beach on sunday and was waaaay up the beach about 1km from the swim beach, there was nobody around... So i thought. I was happily swinging along listening to podcasts on the iphone when i found a target, went to move around the target to get a better signal and pinpoint it when all...

http://youtu.be/ad9Cxeu2frw Hey folks here's the latest piece of equipment for my hunting, DVR Sunnies from ebay. I wasn't keen to film with my iphone as i already had a scoop in my left hand and the ace in my right so i stumbled across these DVR sunnies and bought a pair. They aren't the...

Holy s@&t ! I was on the beach saturday and was standing in a huge channel then went back the next day and it was filled with a metre of sand!?! Nature can move when it wants to.... I guess i'll just compete with the other two dudes that hunt here and change my tactics to an intensive grid...

I was in our local industrial supplies shop and saw this stand up dustpan and brush setup, i immediately saw the potential and attacked it with a steppe drill bit and some alloy bracing :) should work a treat and it weighs half of my othe scoop ;)

Holy crap this DD coil is awesome!! :) i went over the exact same part of the beach as i hunted yesterday and came up with $8.40 in coin, a full pouch of tobacco with a lighter in a plastic bag buried ( worth $28 ) and an un-used condom..... I don't believe i'll be trusting that one hahaha Wow...

I was hunting the beach and came across this, i have a feeling it might be a birth/death plate from an Urn maybe?? Any ideas ?!?

After knocking off work at 4pm i raced to the beach once again to continue my learning of my machine, it gets dark about 5:30 so i was anxious to cover as much ground as possible. I was going well coming up to nearly $3 in coin when a bloke comes up to me and proceeds over the next 20mins...

I'm not sure if this belongs here or tools and equipment haha Necessity is the mother of invention ;) nothing like pissing rain and a deserted beach to inspire ways to protect your baby from water damage

I'm just on ebay and looking at an 8.5x11 DD coil for my ace 250 but it says it's for an ace 350. Are the coils compatible? Will it work on my 250?

After handing the two 9kt wedding rings into the lifeguards believing they would do the right thing and do what they said e.g. Handing to police...... I went down today to see if the owners of the rings turned up but they told me the rings were taken to police station ( small town with 2 police...

Hi guys, i know this is probably trash but how do i spot a real pearl? Is there a way to test it?

I remembered the app i have shows me the last daylight vid of the surf that day and bingo there's me hunting away on the beach hahaha very surreal ;p

Well that was cool, found 2x$2 coin, 1x$1 coin and three rings 1 of which had a... (Fingers crossed) small diamond ;) ....... No holey dollars :(

This is what happens when a stepper-drill bit, an old plastic kettle and a rainy day collide hahaha :cool:

Are there any areas for a beginner to try his hand at fossicking around gympie? From what i've read there is only a small area available and a licence is definately required. Are there any areas along the Mary river to just rock up with ace250, shovel and pan and just burn a few hours?

Hi i was wondering what australian coins i might come across that are the most desirable to find? I've been watching the NatGeo show Diggers and being in the US they get real exited about old coins found but doesn't really help me know what to look for

I found an unfortunate side-effect of beach hunting....... I got so distracted concentrating on working out the subtle bleeps and blips while hunting i not only got raccoon eyes from sunnies but also big circles around my ears from the headphones hahaha *note to self...... Apply sunscreen...

I'm heading over for a wedding in bali at the end of the year and was wondering if it would be possible to hunt on the beaches over there. Is it legal and would i need some sort of fossicking licence? Would i be given a full-cavity search in customs or something? Has anyone taken their machine...

Hey folks i realise these are dirt-cheap and you get what you pay for but as a cheap and nasty alternative to paying $120+ for one, do they work at all? For $40 delivered would i just treat it as a unit which might work for a short time or would i just be better off waiting and getting a better...

Well hmm nearly 4hrs and all trash $&@&$&$$!! Met up with another member on the beach swinging an F5 and garrett propointer with his kids, i forgot to ask your name bloke, and p.s. sorry to rob you of all the rum cans, beer lids, sinkers, condom packets and smoke packets hahaha I suppose i...
