It's so cold out there and today we had rain.. I do miss the nice warm hunting weather but it will come back. I was thinking as my hands and feet were frozen, what am I doing out here? I guess it's from the same disease we all suffer from.. Went to the spot I've been lucky at hitting the Merc's and Wheaties. Found five more today in the wet cold. No Silver but I'll take these Wheats..

Glad to see you can still get out Bruce! Like I always told Dale if I can dig I will detect in almost any condition or temp! :crazy:

Nice group of wheats, Bruce. I would take them too. thumbsup01

Is there much snow on the ground and fields? I really don't like detecting when there is snow on the ground, but I may get out sometime this week if the temperatures are high enough. :yes:

Too bad there is not a 'shivering smiley'... I am sitting here inside, watching a freezing rain fall (two inches of snow earlier) and there is no way I would go out MD'ing in this. Shoveling was bad enough... brrrrrrrr...... RickO

Hit the spots under the trees. The ground is frozen except for under trees. I would say there is around 2 inches of snow then frozen ground. Maybe next weekend it will be better..

Nice bunch of Wheaties. Were you able to read the dates? Some of them look pretty worn!
That's a good idea to hunt in the tree well. Maybe I can take my MD with me when I visit Idaho in the winter.

Not a bad hunt. Some more wheats for the pile. What do you got, a million of them by now?? ;) It is harder to hunt when it's crappy out :angry:

Good job on the wheaties. Sure wish I could still get out but alas, that won't happen unless we get a January thaw. It was in the 30's here this last weekend and we lost a lot of snow. It went from 12-14 down to about 8, and now we have 1-3 headed this way. >:\

They were all shallow, 2-3 inches and every hit I was hoping for some Silver.. Went out with my old friend the DFX and bonded again..There's more Silver here I can smell them.. I have found quite a few Wheats this year, not quite a million but love every one of them.. Gotta love the Wheats!!
