  • We found GOLD after Storm on the Beach while metal detecting. We all found gold and lots of coins at Seal Beach. The Waves were very large and the best surfers in the area were all out surfing. Kelly Slater walked out of the water between Mike and I. The large waves created a mist in the air so I apologize for camera lens but there was nothing I could do to prevent it. I treasure hunt using a Minelab Equinox.

    I never, previously, would have thought of the surf " bringing stuff in " from further out. 🤦‍♂
    Always thought that ' at the dunes ' and a few more yards out would be the better spots as that'd be most likely where people would lose items.

      During huge surf days causing great detecting conditions we layer out a beach, it may appear we a leaving holes but we are actually moving sand around digging out target rich areas. When complete we always fill our holes but most of the time we are getting chased out by the in coming tide. Thank You 👍

You have the formula, a good detector, a computer to help with research, and the skills. Add your experience and close proximity to the beach and walla, you are the King of Gold. Between you and Merrill, I have learned a lot and I do appreciate your videos.

      Not to be RUDE but the word RARE on good stuff in HB are you kidding me, seriously. I find a lot of great stuff in HB every time out regardless of how many people are or have detected it. It is a huge beach but like I have always said, knowing your beach is the most important thing that way you know when and where to Hunt. FYI - I gently detected HB yesterday for almost 2 hours and I found Gold and Silver. I saw lots of dig holes left by other detectorists but still lots of targets.

    Jim, I’m discouraged…lol…just kidding..hey quick question if you don’t mind..do you guys take lunch breaks when you are out there for all those hours? When we go, we are whipped after about 2 hours..we could never do it from sun up till sun down..ok I’m going to guess a silver ring..take care..

      Great question, usually I carry water & snacks so I can dig all day. Though you have to go at your own pace, keeping it fun and enjoyable. Silver ring is a fantastic answer, Thank you 🤙
