Hi Jaco

Welcome to the Forum, You will be surprised how many people actually hunt that we dont know about.   I go out whenever my work and weather will allow me too and then dont see anyone else but when i speak to other people they are talking of people detecting and chasing them around the  beach lol.

Try go out different times of the day im sure you will soon see some people  ;D

None the less, Happy Hunting and Share some finds  8)

Jaco as ek terug is van Margate af gaan ons paar plekke takle. Daar is baie plekke waar ek wil gaan maar die reen en lang grasse maak dit net moeilik op die oomblik. Baie slange in die bosse. Stuur groete daai kant Broer.

Thanx Stevo

Yeah my Bro PFSANDER told me about this forum which is amazing as now we south africans can share our stuff too. Only had one hunt on saturday and ive put that on the galary if you wanna check it out? Not so much amazing finds but i loved the sarcasm of mother nature giving me a piece of wire as my first find lol.

PFSANDER my Broer

Ja nee ons moet plan maak sodat ek kan tips vang en actually iets nice vind lol. Laat weet waneer jy terugkom. Margate dink ek gaan lekker Finds wees wat wag vir jou
