Beach detecting - Bundaberg

 
 We left last Friday for Bundaberg. Met a bloke on Caboolture station with a detector wrapped up in his hands. Been detecting for 30 years. "You will find heaps on Kellys Beach" he tells me. Hit the beach about 9a.m. Saturday morning. Beautiful day to be outside with a fresh breeze. Had a few hits and found bits of aluminium foil and an artists brush and nothing else. Spent about 1 1/2 hours with long spells of nothing!. Tried again Sunday morning with a long spell of nothing, so I brushed my watch across the detector to see what happened. It went off as though I had something really good. A small piece of foil was my only result. I was detecting mainly on wet hard sand. There was about 1 -2 metres of dry sand in front of the sandbank which I run the detector over and about 15 - 20 metres to the water.   This is winter and not a lot of people movement on the beach. Did not get to the Bundy Rum factory this time - it is still on bucket list!!. My pleasure in detecting was enhanced so more research and see what happens.
