I actually fish that beach Silver So here's the run down. The split shot and running sinkers are used for the big yellowfin whiting that frequent the shoreline. The medium, including the berely springs, are used for a mix of Tommy Ruff, mullet & salmon trout. The big lead is used for snapper out on the wrecks and holes, and is dropped while boarding and alighting from the boats that are moored along the length of the beach. It is a popular holiday destination and holds some great fishing.

Nice ring SS ! 8)
funny hey.... I bet a fishing guru could tell by your finds just what sort of fishing, type of fish, etc are/happen where you are..... maybe even the type of bottom that would account for type and size of sinker.
:Y: :Y:

These shots were prior to the Oct LW, so the boats are all stored away, but you can see the mooring floats dotted throughout.

Thanks GDA, yeah i was somewhat disappointed for the effort put in. :|

Look good mate, would have thought there'd be more rings in there considering the amount of sinkers you got. Nice looking ring as well. Awesome... :Y:

Wow What a haul. Great work. Do the rest of the beach you might find more.

:lol: :lol: :lol: sorry but i just had to laugh at that statement, think about it. :lol: :lol: :lol: But seriously pete165 that was my fourth trip to that particular beach and it's kindly donated 3 rings so far, i have no doubt there will be more. You have to be patient and work it under the right conditions, as it's a very temperamental & noisy beach. The sun, wind & tides all play havoc on your machine because of the type of beach it is, just like the fishing there, you have to go at the right times or it produces nothing and you'll think it's a barren beach. :Y:

yes indeedy trash, it was fun, especially waking up some of the shackies with my little happy dance at 2am ] I have recently purchased a S/S beach scoop in preparation for when i pick up the equinox, so i took it for a trial run. After getting used to it i was able to retrieve more targets, quicker and easier, as i was able to cut out the pinpointer useage and also the continuous up and down on your knees to retrieve targets. also dragging it behind me showed my grid marks and what areas i had already detected quite easily in the dark. :Y:

SS you still got a few more beaches to explore yet then you could start all over again

 

[Secret Squirrels]

I've been to most of them at least once for reconnaissance Wishfull The beauty of the beaches, and especially so here (limited competition), is that they are self replenishing.

So traveled again last night after work, focused on the point (top) section of the beach. High tide when i got there so had to do the small strip of dry sand in front of the shacks, then managed to get onto the shell line in the wet sand about 3am. The cut from last week has disappeared, came very close to being bitten by a huge black sand scorpion :|

Well done looks like some nice finds there. :Y:

 

[Secret Squirrels]

No pic but twice as much non relic targets as last time Dan. I thought i found a thrippy as the sun was rising and then decided to call it quits, however it seems i have lost it, or i was delirious and imagining it? :8 They are there somewhere mate, have found some against the shack line previously. i think i just need to focus on taking out as many overriding targets as possible so the good targets reveal themselves.
