Have always had an interest in metal detecting and have started doing some research on what I need to get started. There's a huge number of resources out there as well as equipment to choose from, should be fun. I have my 7 year old daughter interested in the idea of going out with a detector, I've shown her some videos etc and she really seems interested - regardless, this is something I've always had an interest in but just didn't take the plunge. Looking forward to reading the posts and using this site!

Thanks Leslie - right now I'm looking around as to the best place to purchase a detector, next is to find what a good intermediate detector is. So far I've come up with Sweet Dreams and Middlesex Detector sales. Any ideas?

I would recommend him to anyone. He will answer any questions and knows his stuff.

So for my 7 year old I decided on a Bounty Hunter Junior and for me a Fisher F2 Metal Detector Combo Pack (GWP1) 3 Search Coils + Pinpointer + Carry Bag from Middlesex. Should be fun, my daughter is very excited to get out - I'm thinking we'll head out to Lawrencetown beach when we get our detectors. I've done research on the basics so I won't let those that have been doing this for awhile look bad, i.e. cover up holes, don't toss the junk items on the ground, etc. And Leslie, I may take you up on getting out sometime - I'm on leave until the 4 June so I've got a bit of time in the area, thanks for the offer.

Hey Gary,
Welcome to the forum! I have two boys 8 & 6 and we go out regularly, they love it. We mostly do relic hunting as we all like a good treasure hunt. Good luck at the beach!
Cheers, DS
