  • I am once again metal detecting with my Garret Sea Hunter 2 in the south end of Lake Tahoe. Great fun, lots of recovered treasures, a nice ring, sunglasses, and even pull some trash from the beautiful waters. I was diving with my Dive Rite Scuba gear, and my Genesis 600 DPV (Diver Propulsion Vehicle) from Logic Dive Gear.

    Another awesome video brother! So much fun to watch and so entertaining and informative at the same time. I love the subtitles, and I’m sure you are going to be an expert at showing your finds next time after watching the video. But like everyone Else has said, the wrap up shows everything perfectly. Keep up the great work buddy, looking forward to the next one.

    My Dad grew up in Zephyr Cove, so I spent a lot of time there when I was growing up. It's one of the reasons why I like watching your video's, I get my Tahoe fix even though I'm in Colorado. I'm a detectorist (gold nuggets) also, and I'm going to get an under water PI unit. The Garrett that you have is a contender, what is the difference between the regular disc and the discrete disc, and is it useful?

      I wish I could tell you definitively, but you would be better served calling one of the many fine professionals in the business. I find that Kellyco is a very knowledgable and helpful source. Honestly, all I can say is that one setting sounds a little different, this is the fist PI machine I have owned, I really like how compact it is, very easy to swing under water. I have been considering trying the Excalibur 2, many people seem to really like it.Thanks for tuning in!

      A lot of people love the Excal 2 because it's really hot on silver. The only thing that it has trouble with is gold chains. Thanks!

    Lol @ 1st I thought you were finding nuts & I wondered when my family went to that lake....then I just said NAH.... not my nuts they are still in Chandler. Damnit Bwahahahahahaha JK!! Your 15 min scoot ride...was it because you stopped along the way or???? Love the video...wish I could do this because it looks so Zen & fun at same time! Can't wait until your next video!😀😀😀 Just curious how all those coins always seem to end up in one place like tour last video.... it's an enigma wrapped in a mystery I tell you

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад +2

      From the beginning: LOL LOL I knew right away the nuts were not related to you, no family resemblance. Chandler? Hometown? 15 minute ride was from my entry point to were I wanted to hunt, just commuting, the traffic was light... : ) I do stop now and then to pick up trash or look at things and critters that catch my interest. It is Zen, I wish you could do it too. Why can't you? I am glad you enjoy the vid's, I look forward to hearing from you, always entertaining. The coins! Go figure. I have been wondering if they are from people making a wish and tossing a coin. The rings I figure people may be tossing after a break-up. ??? I suppose everything could be from people jumping off the dock too. The mystery continues!!!

      mokpot Wow that's a long commute! I guess I could dive but not below 12 ft as my ears won't adjust to depth ever since I became a private pilot. Which absolutely blows because my Pop's & I used to free dive all the time when I was younger😔 I even got my scuba cert when I was 12yrs old...which in Az does a lot of good (insert sarcasm here). 😂 I love the water... I used to live in San Diego & surfed until I couldn't feel my extremities 🤣 which made getting out of the water funny as F! But either way I feel at home in the water as long as I can see what's sizing me up for lunch or a snack!🤣🤣🤣 I wonder if there are any bottle dumps in the lake! THAT would get my crazy butt in ASAP!😀😀 That was our thing, my Pops & I loved old bottles! Whenever we were in Jersey we would look in the marshes! I miss the east coast for their bottle dumps....and I'm babbling...apoligies! Chandler is where my Brother lives but not hometown. Gilbert is hometown! 😁 Oh and I can't wait for another video where you surface and scare the living poop outta another kid and they call you the lake monster! I love freaking people out to the point they almost wet themselves!😂😂 What can I say, I'm evil & I know it!😂😂😂 But I love laughing 😀 Hahaha as for the coins...I still think it's an Enigma you should solve😁😂😂😂

    Mark..was that a coin spill at the 8:50 mark? and some guys tie off their scoop with a bungie cord to facilitate their hunt...when you show the finds at the end is good enough for me..thx for the effort..

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад

      Hey Rocker, funny thing about that coin spill, the whole area is a coin spill ! Thanks for tuning in!

  • @vhammont
    @vhammont 7 лет назад +1

    Those screws that you found are more than likely stainless steel and are not cheap. Someone was probably working on a boat and dropped them.

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад

      Yep, I agree! Thanks for tuning in!

  • @regulator67bj
    @regulator67bj 7 лет назад +1

    With a number of coins was there an old pier at some time? Sounds like you had a fair amount of boating activity during the search.

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад

      There have been piers in the area since the mid to late 1800's. I did some exploration at one of the sites a couple of videos ago, I was finding a lot of nails, which should be expected around deteriorating docks. The best find in that area was a fired 3 ring bullet. More exploration coming next year... Thanks for tuning in!

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад

      Interestingly, I have not had any luck finding him with social media, which I find strange for a guy as young as he is. Next step will be by snail mail, the license expired earlier this year so it may have been lost for up to 5 years.

    • @sdesic
      @sdesic 7 лет назад

      He replaced it and the cards... Then it is not wort it. Probably stolen and made empty... Then they played throw it...

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад

      This video was in the 12-15ft. range so I get a long bottom time, 2 1/2 - 3 hours. Great to hear from you.

  • @spymaine89

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  7 лет назад

      Thanks for watching, I think... this video has a wrap up, and it was in Lake Tahoe, known for its clarity. If you intended to comment on another video, I understand, some of the lakes and rivers I dive have terrible visibility, and I started doing wrap-ups this year, so I have one's without them. Cheers!

    • @spymaine89
      @spymaine89 7 лет назад

      no this is the one. sorry, you said in video , you had to learn to show finds as you find them. so i said just show at end. water is clear. good fun, keep coming

      The water was around 59-60, it takes a while to drop in the fall... do you dive Tahoe? Treasure hunt? Use a metal detector? I hope to see you also!

      I am unfamiliar with the Equinox, I have been considering the Excalibur. Is the Equinox waterproof?

    • @mokpot

      Ok, so I just looked, the Equinox is submersible to 10 feet... that is not deep enough. I appreciate the idea though. Thanks for watching!

    Even if you never go fishing that rod holder could double as a mount for a small video camera on a kayak, say a GoPro on a short pole. I’ve seen several kayak fishing RUclips channels use such setups. Maybe get some b-roll footage for your videos if you have a kayak along with you. 🤷🏻‍♂️

    We were at the North shore a few months ago at the Gatekeepers museum, I didn't know there was a train that actually rolled out on a dock to allow passengers board a waiting steam boat. I'm sure it has been hunted to death but it would be fun to explore the old dock site.

    • @mokpot
      @mokpot  6 лет назад

      I was aware of the train, but unaware it ran on to a dock. It also never occurred to me to hunt in that area... hmm...
