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.
The cool thing about this guy, if you lost something recently, you can contact him, he will try his best to help! He’s a good human! Also, he doesn’t want any money! Again, he’s a good human!
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.
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.
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!
I’m glad you said you didn’t really find nothing cause I tried metal detecting and found about 10 nails and it felt like I was doing something wrong so to hear you say you didn’t have anything, I’m not so discouraged, thank you for sharing I have learned a lot just watching these! I used to be the person who thought it looked funny, but now it’s me and it’s so fun, well when you find stuff haha the search continues!! 👍
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.
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.
Our condo complex on Ft. Myers Beach was destroyed in 2022 by Hurricane Ian. Since it still hasn't been rebuilt we rented a place for this winter. I was on the fence about whether to bring my metal detector with me this winter, thinking all i would find is trash left over from the storm. However after watching this I leaning towards bring it along. Thanks!
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.
Loved the vid....I'm looking at getting into metal detecting so I'm watching vids on you tube to get some info :) it's so exciting, wanted to do this for years 😊
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 🇦🇺
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.
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
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!
Like most of the videos. You are correct about competition. I am not going to do what you do. I like watching though. I have a fear of sharks and they probably know it.
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
I found out because your body is a huge percentage of water when you’re in it that’s why fingers etc shrinks and jewels fall off. Better to remove before going near water
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
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.
@@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...
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!
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
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
There is SO much debris. They did a pretty good job getting it out of the dry sand, but couldn't do anything in the water. Me and a bunch of friends spent days and days clearing out debris and all kinds of hazards from the hurricane. The water north of the pier still isn't safe to walk around barefoot. There's just too much there
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 so happy to see you collect the litter.thank you🧡⭐
the 10K ring looks like an intaglio ring. looks like a great day for all of you!

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!
I think I found my new retirement gig. Time to move down to Fort Meyers.
fun way to clean up the beach
I love that you put close-ups on the screen.
Great video! The gold is coming, last weeks I couldn't stop digging the gold rings. Spring Break has started!

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.

I'm from East Fort Myers , went to Riverdale High school and Lee middle school!! Love Lee county Florida!!❤
The 10k ring, we know as a Trojan Ring. Very popular as signet rings in the 80's and 90's in the UK.
Great finds!😊
Awesome hunt Shaun, glad to hear that everything is ok looking forward to your future videos 👍
Haha. A “friggin” pull tab… so good you are back…. Been missing you!! Love the gold ring!!! Awesome!!
Nice ring find
You need to make a floaty tube out of a inner tube that has a big screen you can dump your stuff into
Hahahahahaha
Just found your channel, what a feel good video. I have subscribed and enjoy watching all your other videos.
Thank you!!!
I have to start listening to you about moving if there isn't anything to be found-congrats on a great day of hunting

Fantastic finds guys! ✌🏼

Great finds guys!!! 👏🏻♥️
Nice finds today.

Great finds 🎉🎉
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!
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
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.

I love how you called the first aid cream Preparation H! Went right to hemorrhoids huh? 😂
Haha of course!!! 😂
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.
Great content as always
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
You sound exactly like Jordan the lion. WOW WOW

Like your hair cut
You need to make a cut up of every pull tab you find and you saying “freaking pull tab!” Lol
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.
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
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...
. . . s good place to magnet fish from shore. . . .
Not a bad idea. It’s LOADED with ferrous targets
2024 is the year of gold. 👍
🤞🤞
that water vis fifthy
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 😉)
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
It wasn't dirty like that when I lived in Fort Myers in the early nineties.
Stepping on those hooks is horrendous. Been there done that.
When your going back and forth water to beach are you using the red plug ? Also are the bone conducting phones good ?
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
You are living my dream
It was a good day for everyone!!!
i used to live in vero beach ,,, i looked to rent metal detectors when i went there in jan,, couldn't find any ,,do you ever hunt vero??
I make those noises too and I'm only 41
lmao
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
CongrTS‼️
Any luck on the 1715 fleet beaches? found first ones a few days ago. wow!
Nahhh. I've tried a number of times, but I usually just walk around all day finding bits of aluminum foil
how much change do you usually find when you go out
I'm 66, I'm familiar with that old man noise
Omg I saw u went to fort myers! That’s where I’m from
I used to live there too :)
Are they going to rebuild the pier?
I believe they're working on it right now
Hanging out and getting stoned !
People should leave their jewelry at home or hotel room hidden in your suitcase.
That "gold" lion woulda given me a heart attack Shawn
I really thought it was real at first! I would have crapped a brick!!
"There are so many pennies, I'm done digging the penny signals" Turns away from the cash register that spilled all the pennies...

That's not a Cameo, that's an Intaglio. Cameos are 3D out and Intaglios are 3D in.
Hi there possible you could tell what you are using
I was using an XP Deus 2 in this video
Preparation H, you said that without seeing the name. That hints at too much information from what you suffer.😂😂😂
Let me ask, does your metal detector detect diamonds, or the rings they are set in?
Just the rings that they're set in
Which beach r u on ? Sounds like Lovers Key for shelling.
It was Sanibel Island
I would think an area like ft meyers would have a bunch of hurricane debris and metals from getting washed around?
There is SO much debris. They did a pretty good job getting it out of the dry sand, but couldn't do anything in the water. Me and a bunch of friends spent days and days clearing out debris and all kinds of hazards from the hurricane. The water north of the pier still isn't safe to walk around barefoot.

I'm excited for spring break and all the tourists coming back!! The beaches have been pretty quiet this winter!
Are you allowed on all public beaches with your detectors?
I want to do this so much!
In Florida, yes!
