 Dowsing rods are used to find things that are buried. Such things like, buried foundations and walls or where the septic tank is located for your house.
 To use dowsing rods, you need two wires about 12 inches long with one end bent at a ninty degree angle and about 2 inches long. Then you need a 2 inch by half inch round,copper pipe with a smooth edge around the pipe. Now place the 2 inch part of the rods into the pipe, letting the two long ends  to point out in front of you, close to perralel to each other but ready at the slightest bend of the pipe to split apart but not quite. Now, with the pipe held in your hand and the rods pointing out in front of you and ballancing to the point where they will come apart with the slightest change. Now to test your ability to use these rods, it would be good to try it on something that you know where it is buried. Moving towards the object the pipes will start to split apart as you come to the wall of the object and once the rods are split so that they are in one line, then you have come right on top of that edge, now with the rods straight across from each other, side step till you see the rod on the side that you side stepped from will start to bend by itself, this rod is showing you that the corner is coming up and will show you the corner if you keep going. by doing this, you can find all four side of the object.

 P.S.
 This is a skill that takes time and ballance to master, the same goes for dowsing rods that were just a branch in the shape of a "Y" that came from an apple tree and used to find under ground streams. I have been using both methods for 25 years now and find it very useful at times. here is a pic i did to try and demistrate what i was saying.

The other cool thing you can do is find those PVC pipes in your sprinkling system, that the previous owner didn't leave a map of when you bought the place.

So how difficult would you suppose it would be to dowse near the water and get an accurate reading of were said treasure would be located? I understand how the dowsing process works and have used myself many times but how would you differentiate weather you were on the verge of finding buried treasure or just to close to the waters edge?

That would have been nice. The previous owners of the house decided to plant a tree right over the main sprinkler water line! Guess what happened a few years later... yep, I had a swamp for a front yard!  Angry

Yes you should and could find treasure next to water you just have to ask it, now what is treasure to you ? dont for get to ask it what treasure that you are seeking, being gold, or gold coins, or old coins silver etc, then you ask is it a cashes?, ask and keep asking untill you have all the qustions answered, write them down, and dont for get you have to ask or think about what you are looking for yes clear your mine of everythink but what you are asking, if you are asking (talking out loud) and thinking about any thing else it will  or could be wrong answer
I can think of what to ask it and it will answer, you dont have to speak it out loud.
and you can ask is it 1,2,3,4 foot deep and on and on untill you get a yes, ask if it in a box, jar etc.
good luck
Walt
