    though I had some problem with sea water It also th-cam.com/users/postUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn

      +Digger D While that is certainly possible, it's more a sign of a lack of funding to your local public beaches and parks. As politicians defund our parks, you will see more permits/fees. A sign of the shifting tax burden from corporations and the wealthy to the middle and working class in the form of permits/fees.

      +Cull Silver Where I live you have to have a permit to dig on your own land. You only "own" the top part and anyone can by the rights to anything under you if you don't buy them first.
      Can not bury anything (animal, human, or time capsule) on your land without a permit. As far as I know you can plant trees and bushes without a permit so that's something I guess or I've broke the law.
      You have to register with the courthouse if you want to build a shed, any kind of shed, if you want a mower shed or wood shed you better get the permit
      Built a tin shed from lowes on my old property some time back and a tax adjuster come by, shed was a 6x4 and about 5 foot tall in the middle and sloped down to 4.5 foot on the side. costed something like $300 I think. That shed added $10,000 value to my property and raised the amount of taxes I had to pay at the end of the year.
      But you don't have to register your fire arms.
      If you are late on child support the order of permits taken from you are as followed, first you loose your driver's license, if you get further behind you loose your fishing license, and if you still don't pay you loose your hunting license.

    We need a permit to dig it but the people tossing cans, pull tabs, and assortment of other trash don't have to have a permit. Maybe instead of checking our permit the ranger should be stamping out time card for cleaning up the parks. I contacted to the state parks and attached pictures of all the cigarette butts, fishing line, empty beer bottles and other trash I pulled from the park before getting kicked out for detecting. In my email I mentioned the school shootings and said the first response people have after a shooting is; kids don't play outside...they stay indoors and play violent video games and whatever. I suggested the state parks should have an open house and invite detectorist clubs and vendors to the open house. The vendors could give out door prizes and the clubs could introduce the people to metal detecting; show them how to properly dig and fill their holes. After the training the attendees could receive a diploma stating they were properly trained. Take the diploma and a nominal fee $5 or $10 to the parks and get a 1-year permit/license to dig in the state parks. The fee would be no different than a boat registration or fishing/hunting license. Print designated detecting areas on the map like they do hiking, biking, and camping areas. So there would be a revenue source for the state parks, people would have a hobby to get out and enjoy the state parks, and we could clean the parks while detecting. All I see are win, win, win. I received an emailed response. "Thank you for reaching out to us. I have sent this on to administration for their consideration, please await a response. " Dated September 3, 2019. Some people may be turned off by the fee but I'm throwing the government a carat.

    I was into the metal detecting hobby for about a 10 year period starting 1983 to about 1993. I was using a "Heathkit" metal detector made from a kit. It pinpointed amazingly because it had a small search head. If you had been into this hobby back in the early eighties there was pre 1965 silver coins GALORE still in the ground. Most of them no deeper than 4 inches.

      He was nice and all but what is the point of a permit if it's free?...... If they were missing out on revenue then maybe? But it costs the tax payers money for them to issue free permits. I had to get it from the office so that means we the people paid for the persons 10 minutes of time, printer ink, paper, electricity and the Ranger to enforce the free permit. So the Ranger probably makes $20 and hour. The clerk maybe $15. Plus the truck the Ranger was driving. This may have cost tax payers $10 to $15? How many time a year does this happen?

    • @mowerdog

      Usually you can detect up to the high water mark, beaches and other disturbed land. But check the rules before you go.

      It depends on how the rules read. Sometimes it says you can search the beaches only. Or previously disturbed ground. I would just have to read it all.

    • @mowerdog
      @mowerdog  6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Not many clubs as far as I know. Start in the bark chips or sand at your local parks. Then expand to your friends yards of houses 1950 or older. Research each town and park rules to see if detecting is banned before you go.

      The permit is free which makes no sense except as an information gathering tool. When I hunt beaches, sand, tot lots I set my discrimination to just knock out small iron. I did the rest because small gold jewelry can hit at high iron and above. So I don't want to miss anything.

    That ranger is cool. You should also let him know that you pick of the trash while you do your hobby and he will be extra cool about it. It how you handle it. Does not cost much to put your hand out and say your name. Get them on your side and it makes all the difference.
    Tell you a story. I used to do Astronomy and my telescope was 5 feet in length. I had to carry it on my shoulder. Unknown to us the local police got a call about someone walking along a country road with a rocket launcher 😃. After we set up I could hear someone in the bushes. Only for the cops to jump out and say freeze. Only when they saw the telescope they chilled out and we took them a tour of the universe with the scope. Each weekend after that the would drop by for a chat and see what’s in the sky that night. Better to have them work with you.
