I think I found my new retirement gig. Time to move down to Fort Meyers.
I'm so happy to see you collect the litter.thank you🧡⭐
My husband lost his diamond and gold ring on the beach one month into the marriage. I kind of feel sad thinking someone must have found and sold it already. We couldn't afford to get him another one because they are so expensive. It's been 7 years.
So sorry.
I understand how you feel.
That's why you shouldn't have jewelry on when swimming
We don't sell any of the rings we find. We post them on our page for people to claim.

@@RingsAndThings. Oh, that's great.
the 10K ring looks like an intaglio ring. looks like a great day for all of you!
My daddy tweeted his metal detector to sound a different pitch with aluminum/poptabs, etc. He would hear the beep, find the treasure and we kids would cover up the holes. LOL. He was a real treasure finder. This was back in the 60’s/70’s.
Thanks for the video, so nice to see someone enjoying the beach while I'm here in PA freezing my butt off. Love the rings!
I often look in this area where people hang out... "hopefully losing stuff during the day" 😂
If I ever need a smile, your channel will bring it to me. I'm so glad I found you today and subscribed.
Congrats on finding the ring and the pendant!! I get a strong sense of satisfaction just watching you sift the sand out of your scoop---glad when you find more than a 'freaking pull tab!' Good job!
Awesome rings, first hole!
When that lady was standing beside you and you blurted out "beavertail" I thought oh oh I hope she knows metal detecting lingo! I got a great laugh this morning thank you.
lmaooooooo I never thought of that!!! It's such common lingo in the metal detecting world 😂
fun way to clean up the beach
Great find Shawn! You all always have such a great time together and that’s awesome!❤️
Looks like a pretty place to safari a detecting trip. Gold Baby!
Wowee! Nice finds guys!
❤👍😊
So good to see you! Wondered what happened with no videos.Thanks for sharing.
Awesome hunt Shaun, glad to hear that everything is ok looking forward to your future videos 👍
Beautiful ring find - fun day 😊
Great finds guys!!! 👏🏻♥️
I’m hooked on your videos. Great fun!
Great finds 🎉🎉
Awesome finds!
Haha. A “friggin” pull tab… so good you are back…. Been missing you!! Love the gold ring!!! Awesome!!
Great video! The gold is coming, last weeks I couldn't stop digging the gold rings. Spring Break has started!
@@goldringhunter2431 Come visit So Florida one day. I will show you around all the good spots
Its finally here!!!! Good luck out there!!
I lived in Fort Myers for 5 years and only went to the beach once for about 2 hours. I'm not a beach person. I'd rather walk the beach at night.
I moved back to New England bc Florida just wasn't for me, but I'm very interested in metal detecting, always was. Maybe I'll take it up as a hobby in my retirement.
Good hunt Shawn ❤
Nice finds today.
Congrats on the diamond ring find
Awesome finds dude 🤙
Hey, we love watching your hunts. I think the beautiful split diamond ring might have been a wedding band. When my friend’s husband passed away, she had his band cut and shaped just like the one you found.
Great content as always
I'm from East Fort Myers , went to Riverdale High school and Lee middle school!! Love Lee county Florida!!❤
I have to start listening to you about moving if there isn't anything to be found-congrats on a great day of hunting
you make failure to find so much fun thank you
been raining here in california. got the V12 coil for my vanquish 340. and the rain cover. ,it was only $60 on craigslist. but real easy to use. found $.27 and a pair of shears ,the 2 hours i was at the beach. days ago. have a good day.
Hiya DF, super cool video job good job so please keep them coming GL&HH coming from Dulwich London England(✌peace✌)
come up to destin and lets do some hunting !! keep it up. Great stuff
4:32 Preparation H 😳💀🤣🤣🤣 (antibiotic ointment)
Fantastic finds guys! ✌🏼
Definitely not antibiotic ointment!
I need one of those basket scoopers!! They are sure handy!!!
They're just as important as a good metal detector!! Mine is from Xtreme Scoops in Texas
What an AWESOME dig. From old man noises (which you were guilty of too 😂😂) to those gorgeous rings. You must be looking forward to summer getting closer. Ours has just finished here in 🇦🇺
I'm soooooo ready!!! People are finally getting back into the water now that it's getting warmer. And best of all, the tourists are coming back!
Good detective in metal searching, for hunt.
Super steel pendent an awesome ring
It wasn't dirty like that when I lived in Fort Myers in the early nineties.
First up, GREAT HAIRCUT!!!!!🥰
😂 thank you! haha
That’s a cool older ring called an intaglio style, meaning carved in rather than cameo style which is raised.
The water sure is muddy down there compared to a little further north in the Sarasota/St. Pete/Clearwater area. Nice scores for both you guys. Nice to see people swimming again!
There's still so many hazards in the water. I wouldn't get in there without some kind of shoes on
You know what, respect for that opening line and recognizing sometimes you just don't find diddly. Too much clickbait out there and I appreciate you keeping it real.
Haha thank you!!! I don't want to waste anyone's time with a crappy video. I'd rather have no video than to make you guys watch me find nothing but trash lol
You sound exactly like Jordan the lion. WOW WOW
When your going back and forth water to beach are you using the red plug ? Also are the bone conducting phones good ?
Any day at the beach is a great day… nice ring. I am probably the only person who is not enamored by Sanibel 😂
I've been detecting Sanibel for years and still haven't had a good day out there! People tell me that it's great to detect there, but I'm having a hard time believing them! lol
You need to make a cut up of every pull tab you find and you saying “freaking pull tab!” Lol
Hey thanks for the video’s. Really enjoyed watching. One question do you have to take any precautions or do you worry about the salt water effects on your equipment
Thank you! That's always a concern. I need my machines to be running in tip top shape, so they get a good freshwater bath after every hunt
Great video! I always smile when i see a beach and your scoop in the thumbnail. It will be interesting to see your finds during/after college spring break season!😁 16:58
I'm excited for spring break and all the tourists coming back!! The beaches have been pretty quiet this winter!
You should powder coat your scooper black so that jewelry, shiny things show up better.
The only issue is that sand is sooooo abrasive. A company currently makes powder coated scoops, and the powder coat lasts about 2 hours
Ft. Myers Beach??? I graduated from Ft Myers High. It sure has hanged a bunch. Is that whats left of the old Ft Myers Pier??? That hurricane really did a lot of damage. The old open air restaurant /eating area that use to be at the base is probably completely gone completely. Do the plan to rebuild the pier???
All of those restaurants are totally gone :( They're rebuilding the pier, but it probably won't happen until next year. It's gonna be a long time until that area feels normal again
You are living my dream
this is so fun!! could you share what kind of metal detector you're using? i'm guessing there is a wide range of options out there... thanks for sharing your fun days.
I currently alternate between a Minelab Manticore and an XP Deus 2
@@DetectFlorida thank you. i am really enjoying watching your videos...reminds me of home...but you are quite brave...i don't think i would ever go in that deep of water...
I'm 66, I'm familiar with that old man noise
Looks like the weather is really nice. Did anyone get too cold to stay in the water? I can’t even pass up a penny signal. Our beaches up north of Jacksonville are bare lately! Nice video either way great ring finds!
The water was surprisingly warm! I think we finally got over the cold winter weather, and I won't have to wear a wetsuit again until next season :)
D2 decent detector for😊 beaches
I am afraid of being attacked by a shark or something venumous. I would not go that deep in the water. You're my hero.
Great day metal detecting on the beach. Do you have a link for scoops? My hubbys wanting a new one. Thanks
Here you go!! This is the scoop that I use
xtremescoops.com/scoops/?single_prod_id=129
Stepping on those hooks is horrendous. Been there done that.
Hey man do you have any tips on setting on the Deus2 in the Florida saltwater beach? I hunt lakes in Louisiana and feel I know my machine well. Just hoping for a few tip’s before I head over there.
The sensitivity of the factory beach programs is way too high. I set it back to around 80, and change the ground balance to tracking. It will really help stabilize the machine in salt water
Freaking pull tab!!! 🤣
Omg I saw u went to fort myers! That’s where I’m from
I used to live there too :)
. . . s good place to magnet fish from shore. . . .
Not a bad idea. It’s LOADED with ferrous targets
I was detecting in a rodeo arena at a fairground in a tiny town in Utah and found a lion pendant identical to yours, except mine was silver tone
Very cool!! I was really hoping that it was real!!!
@@DetectFlorida It was!!
(Real metal 😉)
👑 🔥
"There are so many pennies, I'm done digging the penny signals" Turns away from the cash register that spilled all the pennies...
Are you allowed on all public beaches with your detectors?
I want to do this so much!
In Florida, yes!
Which beach r u on ? Sounds like Lovers Key for shelling.
It was Sanibel Island
Hi, respect from Ukraine 🤙
Witch sets you using?
Good luck!
Did I hear a Grandma's Boy reference? 😂
That's entirely possible😂
2024 is the year of gold. 👍
🤞🤞
I am looking for a lightweight sandscoop.. Wich one can you recommend?
Xtreme scoops in Texas makes an amazing titanium scoop with a carbon fiber handle. Its super lightweight
@@DetectFlorida oké.. I'm in the Netherlands (Europe) what does is costs and do they have a webshop?
Here's their website with all of the pricing

Awesome Day 🎉what beach is that I don’t recognize it ?
I asked too. You would think he'd say. Apparently he doesn't care to
Hey Carmen. This was Fort Myers Beach
@@DetectFlorida the 1st one you left it to go to ft meyers
Oh! That was Sanibel Island@@carmensusi837
I make those noises too and I'm only 41
lmao
That "gold" lion woulda given me a heart attack Shawn
I really thought it was real at first! I would have crapped a brick!!
What kind of doctored are you using
In this video, I was using an XP Deus 2
What kind of headphones are you using? I wish I could hear what you're hearing. Are those bone conducting headphones?
They're bone conducting headphones. I'd like people to be able to hear the tones, but the volume is maxed out. As long as the wind isn't too strong, the gopro will pick up the tones
@@DetectFlorida I've never used bone conducting headphones. I have some scuba diving friends that use the waterproof kind underwater to listen to music when they're diving. Thanks.
Does Fort Myers Beach’s water always look that brown now? 🥺 This was my family’s vacation spot of over 25 years. The house we used to stay at has been demolished and they’re building a huge concrete thing. The beach I knew is gone. 😔
It is brown alot of the time. Even prior to the hurricane. They also just released water from Lake Okeechobee so it’s crazy how brown it gets :(
Fort Myers will never have the same vibes to it anymore. With so many buildings gone, it will be modernized and commercialized. So sad :( But yes, the water is rarely clear there anymore
Higher Karat is nice but I feel like his big Ten Karat one is still better
Hola amigo como estas Dios te bendiga vuen allasgo
An old penny registered at an 85. What would a brass boat propeller register at?
That would be in the high 90's
@@DetectFlorida Thanks!
What make and model do you have?
I was using an XP Deus 2 in this video
Melbourn beach after a hurricane lots of Spanish ship wreaks off the coast just saying
I was just there yesterday! I'm friends with a lot of the treasure divers. I'm still waiting to find my first 1715 coin!
That's not a Cameo, that's an Intaglio. Cameos are 3D out and Intaglios are 3D in.
How do I contact you regarding someone who was begging me to help find his Rolex watch. I’m not local to the Sarasota area so I thought I would try to reach out to you. Love your videos. Thank you
detectflorida941@gmail.com
It was a good day for everyone!!!
I can’t get over how dirty the water is out there. Shame
Fort Myers Beach is almost always like that for some reason. Its very rare for it to be clear
Are they going to rebuild the pier?
I believe they're working on it right now
I imagined that water must be clear, but it so ...
Glad to see you clean up the trash too! Too bad you. Can’t return the jewlery to their owners!,,
People should leave their jewelry at home or hotel room hidden in your suitcase.

Wat😅scoop U using
I use an Xtreme Titanium All Terrain Plus. Here's a link

I live on Sanibel Island. Captiva
Lucky you!😊 It's absolutely beautiful there & has the most fantastic sea 🐚 🐚 I've ever seen
@pippilongstocking-qs7fm I agree ypu should see how many bricks of cocaine wash ashore yearly 😂😂😂 people retire on the beaches here
I hope everything was ok after the hurricane! One of my detecting friends is a lineman and was one of the first people out there after the storm. The drone footage he sent me was horrifying
my ear got hooked to fishing hook it got me in the ear my brothers were fishing and somehow my ear got hooked

Somebody in front of you throwing pennies to watch you work
It's happened to me! People think they're sooooo funny lol
