Metal Detecting for Lost Canoe Paddles!
Рет қаралды 2,564
Күн бұрынToday I'm going metal detecting for canoe paddles in a dam with my Nokta Legend metal detector, to try and return them to the land owners!
There were a few other surprises to be found...
** Yes, I mistakenly refer to the paddles as 'oars' numerous times in this video. I've since learned the difference. Sorry, folks 😂

Nice going Mish. Gee the water muddies up quickly when you start bringing things to the surface. Good you got a couple of oars and a few other interesting finds. Well done. Take care mate 😁👍
@DirtFishMish Жыл бұрын
Yeah, a dive will be zero-vis for sure, but there’s still a few tricks that can be employed to navigate around. I’m sure I’ll be able to get more with the Nemo. The land owner informs me that one of these paddles was lost again the next week. 😂 Cheers mate.

Hi Mish, Great video, I'm not so sure about diving in that water. It looks sort of scary to me, but if you feel safe, yes dive it to see what else you might find yourself. Maybe you can find some more oars for them. Take care and stay safe till next time. ❤️
@DirtFishMish Жыл бұрын
Thank you Skye! Definitely the sort of location that requires a capable swimmer on standby, just in case. I had a whole team of people with me on the day - that was my husband in the canoe, plus several others on the perimeter. The same will be employed when I return for a dive. Cheers 😄
@slayer8actual Жыл бұрын
Hey, Mish! Since I have lived in areas in the southern US, when you said you were going to get in that water, my first thought was alligators. The southern states don't have crocodiles like you mentioned, just alligators, you know, the ones with nicer teeth (yes, crocs need to see an orthodontist. Their teeth are a mess) You just don't get in waters like that unless you are absolutely certain some gators haven't made it their home. If you do decide to go diving there, I was wondering what the visibility will be like especially once you begin to kick up some mud. In your other underwater dives the mud dissipates rather quickly because of the moving currents. You won't have that benefit there so you'll be blind a large part of the time. Better take your pinpointer! I know you said the wave ring was just a junker, but I really liked the concept of that design with the waves moving along the ring. I actually looked it up and found out that there are many of those styles still available. I might have to get one for myself since you know how I feel about not being near a beach anymore. I miss the waves and surfing and that ring would be a nice connection to those days. (Hint for more wave crashing scenes in your next summer beach series). Nice drone work, Al! And as always, looking forward to your next adventure, Mish! Later, friend!

I had some diving gear with me, but not the right configuration to give it a proper go so today’s adventure was to gauge the composition of the dam base and it’s depth, and now I know it’ll be the perfect training ground with the Nemo despite the visibility issues. Looking forward to it - I’ll return before the weather gets too cold! 😊

I was wondering whether diving would be any good, I imagine it would be a tad bit murky, especially once you stir it up a bit while digging, but yep i'd certainly be going back there, theres a good chance there is a few quality rings in there as well, more likely than coins, a lot of paddling and a lot of wet hands out over the water, take a yabbi net with you, you could get a good feed out of there if your lucky...Depending on how many times they had to replace lost oars, you might be digging up a few dozen, Have fun Mish, Definitely a different hunt and an interesting site as well! Cheers!
@DirtFishMish Жыл бұрын
Hiya Wayne! The visibility will be minimal I’m sure, which presents a fun challenge for presenting the story however there is also the option of adding above-water footage in to tell the story. I’m keen to give it a shot at either rate. There’ll be at least several more paddles to find! Cheers mate and I hope you get out hunting this weekend. 😁

@@DirtFishMish Its a pretty warm day today, so going for a dip in the pond might be kind of refreshing, At the moment detecting is on the back burner, even though its constantly on my mind, and im arguing with myself about priority's, im just at the beginning of dismantling my bungalow, after doing the same with my garden shed, concrete slabs, contents and all, pull it apart, transport, level the ground and reassembled. The bungalow will take a lot longer, and will be nowhere near as easy, ive given myself the afternoon off to take a break, plus its hot and windy and removing roofing irons not a good idea on a day like today, And my enthusiasm for the job is not high at the moment, so recuperate and start again tomorrow! I cant wait for it to be over and done with! and i can get back to a regular detecting life and routines! at least i get to enjoy your hunts in the meantime, thank you for that! Oh! and the drone footage was a great idea, adds a whole new dimension, Cheers Mish!

That was hard work,,, walking in wet clay is like walking in glue pits. Glad you made it out safe and sound....Mish the all terrain Warrior! but since it is soooooooooo clayish and muddy won't it muck up your diving gear? oh I used to spear fish and in zero visibility it is impossible to see what is right in front of you, be careful barbed wire underwater is no fun at all. Cheers and stay safe please.
@DirtFishMish Жыл бұрын
Glue pits is a very accurate description! 😂 Re: the gear, as long as I don’t drag the base of the Nemo through the clay it should be fine, I’ve got a pretty good gear cleaning routine after every dive these days (as typically I have to rinse off salt and sand). It’ll be zero vis for sure, but only a small zone and the biggest risks will be fishing line and lures, I always keep a knife at hand for this! Cheers.
@bradwelch7425 Жыл бұрын
Hey Mish, those dam are not good for finding stuff with dive gear, done it a couple of times and it is just pitch black down there, feel only and orientation is a bugger. Just goes to show that any body of water can hide lost treasures. Cheers and happy Hunting Brad
