Hello, I’m happy that you are back
Lots of work for a pull tab but you just never know what lies beneath the sand. Take care.
Wow, Lucky, yea wee missed ya!! Real nice fireworks on the beach and you know, those old pull tabs aren't used anymore, the new ones stay connected to the cans. So you'll run into them less & less. Great to see ya and look forward to more of your hunts!!
Thanks my friend!🤗. That’s a bit of good news about the pull tabs. I’d be glad to see them go, although this hunt would have been really quite without them. 🤣😂🤣
Missed you! So good to see that smile again! It truly makes a difference! Thanks for just being Gin!
Awww, thank you so much. I always so look forward to your positive and uplifting comments.💖💖💖
RightOn a new episode!
YES Papa Mark has missed you pretty lady...have a great weekend Gin......
Gosh I'm so glad you are back miss gin I was worried about you our world is a dangerous place now. So happy you back. 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
Thank you, Joseph. You are right about that; I’m very careful when choosing where I’m going to hunt. Steering well away from most big cities these days.🙂🍀
Nice to see you back to video making! Hair pins are the worst on the beaches! Those definitely fall through the scoop. Way to hang in there to find the rings.
That has got to be the prettiest beach that I have ever seen just absolutely gorgeous
Sure am happy to see you again.
The beach looked so inviting.
Maybe next video you'll find some gold! WOOHOO!
Thanks so much sweet friend. I’m so happy to finally be back out hunting. It would be great to score a nice chunk of gold before the year end. Fingers crossed!🍀🍀🍀
Fun hunt as always. Missed this one. Thanks for sharing!!!
And it’s been 3 weeks since you put this out! I filed you under ‘watch later’ and lost track of you. Boy oh Boy, that pull-tab really made you work for it!
Gotta love those night hunts. Same happened to Me at Jacksonville Beach. Ring in the dark is still fun.
Heck yea, and then you have the anticipation of having to wait to get back to the room to see what it is. 🤣
@@LuckyGin 😆
Scrapping with Grandpa lives that way. Should look him up. Great guy.
Awesome finds persistence pays off. Great light show on Endipendnce day 🇺🇸
Sometimes the adventure is more rewarding than the finds. You have such determination as a detectorist. Great to see you back on the hunt!
Thank you - it’s great to be back.🙂. It’s easy to have determination on the days you are finding great stuff; it’s these sparse hunts that really challenge you. Once I hit those rings I’d have kept going for hours if my detector batteries hadn’t died.🍀
So nice to see you again. I missed that beautiful smile!
Thank you, James. It’s so nice to be back out hunting.🙂
I had a cheap earring falling through my scoop took forever to find. Good luck
Happy to see ya back Gin ..a ring is a ring...😊
Your in my next of the woods... I'm on the other side of Cape fear.. Brunswick County beaches...
Also go through the marsh pathways where people leave the beaches. From shaking out towels etc.
I have missed seeing you! Welcome and thanks for the video.
Great to see you're still treasure hunting..!! I seen your title Cape Fair & was excited.. I live in Cape Fair Missouri..😄
Haha, sorry for the false alarm.😜🙃
Glad your back. Missed my Gin. Felt like I had Gone to AA.
Haha, well don’t you worry Michael - I am back and here to help you fall off the wagon.🙃😉🤣🙌🍀
Great seeing you! You have been missed!
Happy that you back missed your videos thanks for sharing take care and be safe 💥😎💯🇺🇸👍🤙
Thank you - I’m so glad to be back at it.🤗💖🍀
I love your enthusiasm Gin! I’m taking a break from beach detecting, they scrap the beaches in Biloxi and Gulfport several times a week. Finds are scarce. I’m doing research on the historic homes that were lost along the Mississippi coast during Katrina. Most of the lots are still vacant. I’m hoping to start detecting those soon if I can get permissions and do more this fall when the weather cools off, and can get more detecting time in.
I’m so glad you told me that’s going on, Greg. I’ve been eyeing a trip down that way again but the weather hasn’t cooperated. I’d have been really frustrated to get down there and had a dismal hunt. I’ve noticed a lot of those vacant lots and wondered about getting permission. Figured it would probably be a debris minefield though, judging by some of what I find on the beaches. Still though, some of those homes were really old. Maybe you can get some and find fabulous things.🍀🍀🍀
I detected some lots in Waveland last month,right near the beach. You are correct, debris minefield! It wasn’t overwhelming,because I discriminated some of the signals once I started seeing a pattern. I dug silverware,other household items,local tokens from the 50’s, and a real assortment of things. Lots of wheat pennies and a few silver quarters. I had fun and will go back.
Enjoyed the hunt!! That one target was a rough one. Almost needed your shovel. Hope to detect with you again eventually. Mike
Finding treasures in the wet sand does happen but the dry sand on big coastal beaches pays off way better.
It nice to see back an at it again. Good luck
She's Baaaack! LOL
Loved the video. Glad to see it pop up on my phone.
Well you tried and deserved more I think you need to do the beaches after a good storm well done 🍀👍
Great show keep it going my beach hunts are about the same. Field hunting is awesome dug a 18lbs of solid brass 6ins deep plus relics 😃
Hi Gin its been awhile indeed. And well you know ya don't know what you'll find until you look treasure hunting is like fishing somtimes you get something somtimes you don't. But do keep on trying. 😊👍👍👍👍
It's so great to see a post from u!! May have been slim pickings but a least u were out there hunting!! The 2nd time I moved to NC in the early 80's, I lived @ Carolina Beach for ~ 1 1/2 yrs. U were ~ 6 miles north of Fort Fisher (a Confederate fort during the Civil War). They use to let people metal detect on the grounds....not sure about now. Had a work associate that found coins, bullets, small cannon balls, uniform buttons....all kinds of stuff. Stay safe!!
Keep searching for that treasure. I just recently found a Triton mans wedding band and a 1974 class ring in a small park nearby. Was able to look up the owner of the class ring and return it. Enjoy your videos. Keep them coming.
Nice beach, looked like a fun place to be. Love your tenacity, you went into the night until your machine died; that's hardcore in my books. ☘✌
Thanks for sharing great to see a new video
happy labor day to you Gin oh any find is a fun find well said keep swing and thanks for sharing
Thank you, Phil. I appreciate you popping by my friend.🤗🍀
It’s been awhile. Good to see you back on here.
Thank you! It’s good to finally be back.
Good Morning Gin. Another good episode. Really like you're narration. No Umm,,uhh,and you don't give up. Can't find if ya don't scoop! One day I'll be sitting here watching an episode and see that you found something that will be museum quality or reimburse you for all past and future digs. Keep up the good work
Another great video, Gin. Although the finds were few I enjoyed your comments and hope that you will share many more hunts with us.
Thank you. I try to always make the best of it, even the hard hunts where there’s not much to be found.🙂
Like 421,wow amazing place by day and by night,amazing two rings,great hunt 😁🙏 greetings to Italy 🇮🇹
Thank you Mr. Ghorn. It’s so nice to see you pop by.🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin 💪😁
Awesome job two rings 💍 👏🏼
I’m glad to see you’re back! This was a great video even if the finds were slim, but hey, at least you got to go to the beach and see fireworks!
Thank you, Cole. It is so good to finally be back out hunting. Now to find a busy site with lots of targets. 🙂
I just found your content I use a CTX3030
I searched for 28hours straight I started in
La Jolla and I walked to Ocean Side
On the Towle line between the sea weed and the wet sand on the way back I walked in a zigzag pattern I found seventeen rings and all kinds of other things the best I have ever done was on Labor Day I started at termalane
I dragged my scoop in a zigzag pattern from née-deep to the dry sand I walked for 25 hours
I found 18 rings a gold necklace a cardie elephant bracelet and about $200 in change they were 15 silver quarters that was the best I’ve ever done
Another awesome video
Thank you!🙌🙂🍀
Glad you're back. ♥️😁
Thank you, Audra. It’s so nice to finally be back out hunting.🙂🍀
I hope you have been well, and I'm glad you're back.
Should have headed North to Wrightsville Beach!!!
i literally shouted out "YES!" when i saw vid on the feed screen
"Does not inspire confidence" made me laugh...ya, gotta keep on trucking, Babe.. love your videos , hardly wait to get to Arizona to use my 49.95 harbor freight metal detector..
Haha, on that quite beach I wasn’t passing any targets no matter how sketchy they sounded. 🤣😂🤣 I hope you go to Arizona and score some epic finds with that harbor freight detector. You never know!🍀🍀🍀
@@LuckyGin I feel a,4 lb gold nugget calling me..never, ever pass up a target, that just might be the one...see ya on the trail, love ya, kiddo.
Seeing your opening sequence makes it a great day...You hunting makes it amazing 🙂
Glad to have you back
Thank you, Ron.🙂
YES!! a new lucky gin vid!!
Nice . I love your channel .. always waiting for the next hunt video.
Thank you. I’m hoping to get back to posting regularly soon; life’s been a little crazy lately.🙂🍀
Smile all time
Good video, that beach was gorgeous. The fireworks were nice. I'm glad you have merch. I'm going to buy something. Take care.
Enjoyed our night at the beach !! Great to see ya again !!!!
I’m so glad, Kevin. Glad you could share the hunt and the fireworks with me.🙂🍀
I was in that same place a few years ago found a bunch of change, and someone buried a case of beer bottles caps and all they were about a foot deep 😂
thanks for sharing.
You make it look so easy!
Haha, there’s definitely many times when it’s not.🙂
@@LuckyGin I’m sure…That’s how good you are though!
3 weeks, felt more like 3 years... So glad to see you back. I'm pretty sure I can speak for all of us, *"We Miss You"* ... 😁 btw: very clean beach....
Hi Gin so good to see your back my goodness you work so hard to find anything but the fireworks look nice hope to see you back soon take care and stay safe 😃👍👍
Haha, I definitely do put the work in. Eventually it will be some epic treasure that I find, and all be worth it.🙂🍀
appreciate you sharing your videos my wife found your channel some of them look like your in our home town in Knoxville TN we travel a lot and I metal detect great channel new subscribers
Hey Gin. Did you realize you were right above Kure beach and especially fort fisher. Which has extensive civil warship history.
Great hunt, any day detecting is better than working, the beach is a plus.
You’ve got that right, Richard! So glad to finally get back out hunting.🙂🍀
Congratulations on the 💍 rings, Happy to see you're videos again.
Im convinced the lack of clad will continue due to us using bank cards etc for everything these days. Years ago I could find $20 in clad in a couple hours. I just wish bottle caps and square tabs were plastic, then id be happy.
Welcome back! We’ve missed you!
Thank you Edward.🙂💖🍀
Love you finds really great you look amazing like always
Hi Gin, been awhile let's get back to digging some treasure.👍🙂💕
That’s right! I’m ready to be back in the saddle and getting after it.🙂🙌🍀
What a beautiful hunt 😍😍
That was romantic especially the fireworks at the end
Sunset beaches are always so romantic. If I lived near one, I’d take a stroll every evening no matter the weather.💖
Pirate ship gold can wash ashore after any storm.
Great to see you out again, and using a concentric coil instead of a double D. A lot of detector’s don’t know how they are different and work
Thank you - it was so good to be back out. I’ve played around with other detectors at the beach, but I go back to that CZ every time. It’s such a solid workhorse.💖🍀
Yay you're back!! I have a feeling, that you are not far away from an awesome find, gold ring, maybe some other gold jewelry! You are due to hit it big!! Fun hunt and nice to enjoy the fire works with you. Good Luck!!
I really enjoy your videos. Have fun be careful colonel Chip
Thank you so much Sir!🍀
It was good to see you Gin i enjoyed your video and good Luck to you.
Thank you, Jimmy. It’s so nice to see you pop by.🤗🍀
Keep up the good work. Any target is a good target. Great to see ya.👍
Thank you, Jerry. It’s great to be back out hunting.
Sweet 🦋
Glad you are back! I've been missing your videos. I'm glad you kept detecting. I've found some great items at the end of the hunt when I just felt like quitting. Keep hunting!
Thank you - it’s good to be back. I’m ready to get this fall season underway.🙂🍀
@@LuckyGin I am as well. I've got 3 new permissions from the late 1800's to explore! Fall is so beautiful! Good luck on yours!
Hi Jen...🍀🍀🍀...Keep a swinging
Great Video!
I started hunting for gold nuggets gold detectors I found quite a bit in Arizona and California I started hunting later at the beaches
Good Job 👍 2 Rings😊
Thanks David. Those rings were super crusty, so I think maybe they’d been there a while. That towel line may have more; my detector died before I could do much on it. Maybe something good there for you.🙂. It was really nice meeting you.🍀
@@LuckyGin Hi, I detected Wrightsville Beach for 7 hours yesterday it is still sanded...2 junk rings and a sore back and Pull tabs 😊
Hang in there. Nice video.
Hey Gin, if ever you’re in Pompano Beach Florida I can show you tips i’n finding treasure from top to bottom that is from the street down to the waterline, I always thought about doing my own channel but maybe I don’t have a face for TV lol, i’ve profited almost $1000 on jewelry and coins and have a unique perspective on where to start looking, I love the energy and the hobby, be safe and hunt well.
Thank you, George. I always love the chance to hunt with others and see if I can learn something new. I’ve never hunted that beach so maybe when I make it there you can be my guide.🙂
Great video Gin! I watched you the whole time!
🤣😂🤣
Missed you a lot. Have been eagerly awaiting for your videos
Nice!
Good job my friend!
Thank you pardner.🤠🍀
Grab your camo an lets go..lol
Gin
Another fantastic relaxing video Lady! Thank you for this. Most of the time it doesn't matter if you find the great stuff. I just love being outdoors, relaxing and having a good time.
Peace Gin and I can't wait for your next video Lady.
Peace and these are for Luck! 🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
🙌👏👏👏👏👏👍🖖✌👌🤙👋🙂
Thank you so much. I totally agree -it’s the thrill of the hunt. I find detecting so relaxing and almost meditative, especially the beach. It was so nice to finally get back out and get a hunt in. Thanks for stopping by today - you are much appreciated.💖🤗🍀
Good to see you Gin good hunt Anyway, Stay Safe and Happy Hunting Gin 🍀
99% of my metal detecting is done at the beach, so I am very interested in your Fisher CZ 21 metal detector. It seems to me from researching it, that it is primarily an underwater metal detector used for diving. How well do you find it works in dry sand as well as wet or in the water? And what size coil are you using? I noticed that the control box is detachable and you wear it on your waist, how heavy is it?
It works great in both scenarios. I get some very deep targets with it. The one I use has the 9” coil; that’s what comes with it. The box is heavy, though maybe a larger person would notice it far less than what I do. I’ve tried using other machines at the beach, but always go back to the CZ. Granted, I haven’t tried any of the other saltwater machines, so I can only speak to my experience with this one.
Gin I see you still don’t have a handle on that thing, and it’s been a few months!!!
That's what I call ending the video with a BANG! 🧨 Pun intended . I left a suggestion on one of your vids to get permission from your local high school to detect under their open bleachers after their home games. Have you tried that?
hate I missed ya... you were in my backyard
Jen..Your hunt at Carolina beach was a bust because they just pumped in sand and covered most of the targets. They just did it a few months ago they did Carolina beach and Kure Beach.
I ran into David when I was leaving Serenity point and he told me the same. Seems to be the story no matter where I go on the Atlantic side.😔.
Nice videos 👍👍👍👍
Thank you, Ricardo.🙂🍀
Do you not go by the number readings? Get a Equinox 800 great machines. I pretty much know what's there before I dig as far as coin or junk. Rings and bling are usually a surprise. Keep on Diggin love ya Gin.
The CZ-21 is an underwater detector, so no VDI. Just tone. On this beach with few targets, I was digging everything anyway.🙂
@@LuckyGin Gotcha if I dig everything I would end up with a lot of garbage. The parks around here are loaded with pull tabs and bottle caps. People are so lazy. With the nox you can read between them with practice.
