though I had some problem with sea water It also ruclips.net/user/postUgkxa-FNYUOM93a388gi9a4brtSCEVmrHgJH land for finding any things very easily. (thought it would work as normal due to it being water proof within certain parts of the detector), on dry land and sand worked well. My first one, so still have lots to learn
I never knew some places require a permit! That’s nuts! People detecting actually leave the place better than when they started!
That is true.
I really like the fact that you kept the conversations with both the Park Ranger and fellow detectorist on your video. You're vids are both entertaining and well done. Thank you for posting!
Thank you! I know most of my videos run too long. So I cut out about 15 minutes with each guy to save 30 minutes of just shooting the bull. But both guys were really nice. Thanks for watching!
Anytime you need a permit to detect a public beach or park you have too many self important beaurocrats in your local government!
True
+Digger D While that is certainly possible, it's more a sign of a lack of funding to your local public beaches and parks. As politicians defund our parks, you will see more permits/fees. A sign of the shifting tax burden from corporations and the wealthy to the middle and working class in the form of permits/fees.
Just another case of tax payers paying to have people harass them. I had case of a ranger literally screaming at two 8 year old kids for feeding the ducks. If that is all they have to do then they are surplus and sent packing.
to many crooks at town hall
Digger D ; At Arkansas state parks, if it legal to detect, if you find anything worth more than ten dollars you must turn it in.
I like that you send the dog tags to the owners. mad respect. new to detecting always been a gold dredger and have found relics that way too.
+RE-NU Batteries Anything I find with any identifying info I try to find the owners.
A permit to dig holes in the ground.. how pathetic
The state always wants it's $.
You can fill them back in without a permit, we are a free country ya know.
The permits in Missouri are free.
@@nevets68 corporate greed in reality
@WonkaaVision let the truth be told
You done well with the beep machine! I never did doubt you for a minute! I know a local metal detector dealer and he does quite well with his beep machine in competition. I will have to watch this video again. Thanks for the video.
Beep/dig on the beach! I wish I never sold this machine. But a guy offered me a pretty penny to have it so............
No permit needed in Texas parks! God bless Texas.
Cull Silver Just some of our parks need a permit. I really don't understand whay someone issues a permit that's free?
I enjoy the fact that in Texas there seems to be much less government injecting itself in to every aspect of our lives. I moved from California, where a permit is needed for everything!
Cull Silver I hear ya! Too much government and not enough fun! Thanks for watching!
Cull Silver You are completely so wrong. All parks where I am require a permit..all of them.
+Cull Silver Where I live you have to have a permit to dig on your own land. You only "own" the top part and anyone can by the rights to anything under you if you don't buy them first.
Can not bury anything (animal, human, or time capsule) on your land without a permit. As far as I know you can plant trees and bushes without a permit so that's something I guess or I've broke the law.
You have to register with the courthouse if you want to build a shed, any kind of shed, if you want a mower shed or wood shed you better get the permit
Built a tin shed from lowes on my old property some time back and a tax adjuster come by, shed was a 6x4 and about 5 foot tall in the middle and sloped down to 4.5 foot on the side. costed something like $300 I think. That shed added $10,000 value to my property and raised the amount of taxes I had to pay at the end of the year.
But you don't have to register your fire arms.
If you are late on child support the order of permits taken from you are as followed, first you loose your driver's license, if you get further behind you loose your fishing license, and if you still don't pay you loose your hunting license.
At least he is being polite. Be friendly because that could be useful in the future.
This is true. Thanks for the comment!
@@mowerdog Might be useful to show them the junk you pick up too and ask where's a good disposal place for that - indicating you have a beneficial effect on the park's quality and (afterthought) that you always fill in holes. You never know, might make a friend for life (?). I'm in Australia and the rangers here tend to be really unfriendly, almost like they are our 'controllers' and we the servants. Very strongly left wing here too (the rangers) and I have friends around Sydney who tell me the tricks they get up to, sometimes 'not quite.. [ummm, gotta be careful here][.. 'right'.
They should pay you for cleaning up the beach
+dnhman Double time!!!
I think you need a permit for that too.
sadly alot of the treasure seekers just pull the junk up and leave it!
That could be why a permit is needed
they dont want sharp metal objects sticking up on the beach with plenty of bacterior all over
@@rogerd4559 not like those objects are not already their ,at least these guys dig it out so it can be picked up,,geeze
DAMN STRAIGHT THEY SHOULD
what a bunch of bull a permit to look for coins lol.
+Namii Arii Your right. Plus it's a free permit so what is the point? Crazy...
+Namii Arii they have to be diligent without that coin looking permit the country would go to hell in handbag fast.
+joseph fulks Yep. I hate to bring politics into it, but this is why Republicans want smaller government. What a waste of tax dollars. Someone getting paid good money (with a good pension on the way) to guard over some soda can tabs in some mudhole. Ridiculous.
lol feel free yet?
@@robbradley1337 yeah smaller gov is better cuz they are amazingly wastefull lol. Imo
Plus they can just fuck off :p
Tried detecting at a park today and got in trouble even though I had a permit. Metal detecting is not a crime. People just feel threatened cuz it's an awesome hobby that they don't have patience for.
How did you get in trouble?
@@mowerdog didn't get in trouble really just felt like a criminal. I was told to leave by park security.
You are so nice and informative!! You just taught me so much thru this vid. Haha yeah a detector and scoop is so dangerous! I magnet fish too!!
Thank you! I built a magnet but really haven't used it. I need to though..........
"Picking up trash, officer."
They should be paying us!!
Top marks for returning the dog tag to the owner, it would mean something to me.
I don’t agree with a need for a permit. Only reason I can think is to try to prevent disrespectful detectors not filling holes or leaving piles of debris laying around.
Great video. The sound quality was a little poor but could still hear it ok. Sound quality in the wrap up was great though. HH keep up the great work.
+Jake Solomon Thanks for the comments and thanks for watching!
Great video, Ken :) Man, you always seem to have the most interesting hunts...you bring trouble where ever you go, lol. It's funny, the few times I've been approached by a cop or some other higher up when detecting, I too seem to always get the same line; "Find anything?" before they start rambling on about the rules and other nonsense.. It must be like a stock line that they teach in security guard school or something. He was a nice enough fella though. And what was with the pirate? He was even using a Tesoro, too! Keep up the good work, sir.
+Treasure Hunting Tips LOL. You know how it goes. Old man metal detecting ='s trouble! LOL. Maybe that's all they have to do is check detector permits? All I know is every time I hunt a beach I'm checked! The other guy did have a nice Tesoro. But after a few minutes switched to an Ace 250. I think he stayed around 45 minutes.
Great Video. Raymond....A great Ambassador to the hobby. I like The Hat "417 Relic Hunters" Got one almost like it.
+AgilDog1 I don't have one of those fancy hats! Maybe I should join a club? Thanks for watching!
Metal detecting is a hobby not a crime -have nice day hammer head park rangers
Great Public servant he came up to you and said "hey how you doin". Wow we need more government employees like this, nice, professional, courteous.
+slinky9632 He was a real nice man. I may not agree with the permit process but respect the man for doing his job.
I guess I missed the "confrontation" part
Thats called click bait most guys like this use it .
I was into the metal detecting hobby for about a 10 year period starting 1983 to about 1993. I was using a "Heathkit" metal detector made from a kit. It pinpointed amazingly because it had a small search head. If you had been into this hobby back in the early eighties there was pre 1965 silver coins GALORE still in the ground. Most of them no deeper than 4 inches.
I dream about the early days of detecting. All silver all the time!!
Interesting hunt! Black rocks sure make it hard to dig in. Where did you get that scoop? I'm new to the hunt, having got my first detector for Christmas. I can't find those long slim shovels at our stores, and I have a beach trip in 3 weeks. Thanks for the peek into your hunt!
+gaylemae I got that scoop off of ebay. Just do a search. Thanks for watching my videos!
That ranger was cool. Not being a jerk and being nice. I wish there were more like him.
He was nice and all but what is the point of a permit if it's free?...... If they were missing out on revenue then maybe? But it costs the tax payers money for them to issue free permits. I had to get it from the office so that means we the people paid for the persons 10 minutes of time, printer ink, paper, electricity and the Ranger to enforce the free permit. So the Ranger probably makes $20 and hour. The clerk maybe $15. Plus the truck the Ranger was driving. This may have cost tax payers $10 to $15? How many time a year does this happen?
I 2nd that
@@mowerdog it's to get a count of the number of detecting enthusiasts just like fishing and photography.
@@wyvrennemacdaniels6813 and when they get those numbers, if its high enough, they start thinking more ways to make money off it.
well I have to say that even though you didn't find much goodies I enjoy your videos. as for changing anything may I suggest showing us your screen when getting a hit for those not familiar with your machine your using. great video keep it up
+kirk mcwethy In this video I'm using a Tesoro Compadre. It doesn't have a display. My other vids show the screen on my other machines. Once spring gets here I'll be using the new Whites MXSport that does have a display and is waterproof. So stay tuned for those videos. Let me know if you want one - I'm a multi line dealer..
BUSTED! :)
BeatWolf Gamer I
That's the way to be, friendly with the Rangers it will always go down well with other detectorists👍🏼😎
Nice vid😃
Craig
Coin Hunting And Relic Recovery Aus Thanks Craig. He was a nice Ranger just doing his job. Thanks for watching!
Monday morning and I'm headed to work in a few minutes. Spent the weekend poking around trails and beaches here in Alaska. Had fun but didn't see a single person. Can't imagine the constant interactions that you put up with.
Good luck!
With my luck: *$50 for permit..... Oooooh a penny!!! This permit just became $49.99 (doesn't find anything rest of the year...)*
I bought a permit last year that cost me $25. It stipulated that I could NOT detect sand swimming beaches of which there are two, ball fields and soccer fields. Basically some woods and a few other open areas. What a rip off! Now we can't even search the sand!
Another example of government taking away my freedom and selling it back to me for a fee. This country needs an enema!
@@mowerdog In Massachusetts it's 10 dollars for basically not owning anything you find anywhere that's owned by a city or town. Which is literally everything that's not owned by the state. I believe it's a yearly permit meaning you need to list every relic you find to get a new permit issued. Well that's what's listed on the application for the permit so you're doing this to help them while paying them to do an innocent hobby or career. Don't get me started on lost jewelry you also have to report it and help the nearest police precinct in finding the "Proper Owner".
I know this is probably 5 years too late to make a statement, but I hate that Tesoro went out of business. They made some slam bang little detectors that would disc. out iron better than any other and their detectors had excellent separation so that you got crisp and clear signals. I still love my Cibola and Mojave detectors.
I has a SS umax and Compadres. Great machines.
Not my cup of tea, but it was interesting to watch and learn. The main thing I leave this video with is that you are are very decent human being.
Good hunting.
Thanks for the kind works Gerald!
Ha ha, 😆 I’m watching this exactly 5 years later.
Thanks for watching the History channel! LOL....
Pretty sad when you have to get a permit to dig holes on a PUBLIC beach in a so-called "FREE COUNTRY!" Also, if a park maintenance person tries to get you to leave, tell them to call the cops to show you the law that restricts you! They have ZERO authority to tell you to leave!
+JeffSal999 True. They let kids leave huge open holes. They let others leave their trash laying around. Those are the ones that need a permit to use the beach. Not us detectorists that clean up after them.....
+JeffSal999 Permit costs help pay for upkeep and maintenance of park facilities including the parking lot where mower dog parked. [edited]
One of my main points is the detecting permit is free.
That's weird. Then why bother asking you to get a permit... I could see if they were trying to pay for parking or someone to clean the bathrooms or empty trash cans.
Exactly.
Excuse me...yes, you there! I noticed you taking a breath, did you just breathe in some air?! Can I see your permit please?
I need to renew my oxygen permit.
mowerdog keep posting your bounty hunt please! Best of luck...crossing my fingers that you find that mother lode!
Great video. All 4 Tesoros I have hunted with broke up on rings if the shanks were broken
The Tesoros love jewelry!
GOOD DUDE I CAN TELL BY WHAT HE SAID ABOUT THE DOG TAG HOPE YOU FIND SOMETHING NICE YOU DESERVE IT
Thanks Erric!
I always wanted to get a detector and go exploring but never have. Watching you makes want to do it again. What’s your best find so far?
Go watch my video named Amanda.
ruclips.net/video/jQ5iwnB5qmI/видео.html This ring is the best thing I've ever found
Nice to
Meet a fellow digger along the way the ranger was cool too nice day out I’d say
Meeting another detectorist doesn't happen often.
seemed pretty cool
Ah, more permission to be free. Tyranny is wonderful, eh?
LOL. Right....
I am not surprised, also someone trying to mess up someone’s fun. I hope you had fun. Stay safe.
I have fun every time I'm able to detect! Take care..
To be completely fair if everyone with a State issued badge and gun was as level headed and respectful as that Ranger we wouldn't have all the crazy stuff that's going on right now.
True
mowerdog, this is the first video of yours that I have seen and looks good to me!!!!! HH and GL
+GOLDBULLIONTREASURES HistoryRetriever Thanks a bunch!
Nosey neighbors too. Lot of Pirates
Arrrrrg!
Land of the fee ! Not the free like they tell you.
Senator Tom McCall Oregon. People were trying to cordon off areas of beach for private use. He made it all public, like it should be. I’ve made nothing but friends detecting the beaches. In fact, some lady just gave me a float she found walking ahead of me. I’ve been well received in the hobby.
The world has lost common sense. I haven't had problems on the coastal beaches. Only the inland beaches.
My brother metal detects but I never got into it . He detected a beach years ago and got like 26 gold rings on his first hunt , must have been a virgin beach .
There are still some hidden beaches and swimming holes where you can slay the jewelry. I haven't found one yet! LOL. Maybe it's time to try detecting with your brother?
Im shopping around for a pin pointer and detector. New to the field so need a good inexpensive set up what do you suggest? In Colorado now.
Give Craig at www.showmetreasure.com a call. Tell him Kenny said to set you up.
Bummer. My daughter and I got shut down at a beach as well. Told us the only place to detect was the paved parking lot..hmm, how does that work?
Time Hunters research the rules to see if it says no metal detecting? Or if you need a permit? He may have wanted the beach to himself. ...
Get out the jack hammer!!!
Seems like there's nothing you can do without a license or a permit. I didn't know you would have to get a permit to metal detect! I subed to your channel I like watching stuff like this good luck metal detecting!
You don't need a permit at most places. But get one if you do....
Mowerdog I noticed you said something about Kansas City I'm new to metal detecting..do you have any recommendations on going out about an hour or so outta Kansas City to hunt? I have also tried to find clubs in the area..but have been unsuccessful so far.
Not many clubs as far as I know. Start in the bark chips or sand at your local parks. Then expand to your friends yards of houses 1950 or older. Research each town and park rules to see if detecting is banned before you go.
Hey Kenny, any park rangers ever give you grief over using a scoop? Thinking about going to local state beach this weekend and they are a little bigger than 12" lol
Never once in maybe 6 confrontations
President and secretary, lol.
Good video
I've gotten great hits and finds with my $49.00 Barska Detector from Menards!
Awesome! You don't need to spend a fortune to find fortune!
Great video, and good job being cool with the park ranger. They really get hassled a lot for doing their job.
I never met a Ranger I didn't like... Thanks for watching!
Very nice of you to send the dog tag back.
+ScottDLR Thanks! Thanks for watching!
It's all about the Benjamins
one person comes to the park in the winter, the poor ranger is just bored and wants human interaction
Maybe so?
In the UK it’s permit for this, licence for that, permission to fart.
I can understand getting a permit for farting if you have Taco Bells there!
The LIBERALS in the USA want to tax *FARTS*
I love the conversation, no no conflict left it and hey it's just a bunch of foil and pull tabs.
Always a lot of trash.....
When you see a ranger truck you should approch them and show your permit so you won't have to worry about them qustioning you. Just get it out of the way up front!
Lol.
Great video. Thank u! 🍀🇺🇸🥰
Thanks for watching my videos Randy!
That ranger is cool. You should also let him know that you pick of the trash while you do your hobby and he will be extra cool about it. It how you handle it. Does not cost much to put your hand out and say your name. Get them on your side and it makes all the difference.
Tell you a story. I used to do Astronomy and my telescope was 5 feet in length. I had to carry it on my shoulder. Unknown to us the local police got a call about someone walking along a country road with a rocket launcher 😃. After we set up I could hear someone in the bushes. Only for the cops to jump out and say freeze. Only when they saw the telescope they chilled out and we took them a tour of the universe with the scope. Each weekend after that the would drop by for a chat and see what’s in the sky that night. Better to have them work with you.
Good story and tips!
nice and friendly ranger, way to go
Insane law! Great vid though!
Thanks!
We need a permit to dig it but the people tossing cans, pull tabs, and assortment of other trash don't have to have a permit. Maybe instead of checking our permit the ranger should be stamping out time card for cleaning up the parks. I contacted to the state parks and attached pictures of all the cigarette butts, fishing line, empty beer bottles and other trash I pulled from the park before getting kicked out for detecting. In my email I mentioned the school shootings and said the first response people have after a shooting is; kids don't play outside...they stay indoors and play violent video games and whatever. I suggested the state parks should have an open house and invite detectorist clubs and vendors to the open house. The vendors could give out door prizes and the clubs could introduce the people to metal detecting; show them how to properly dig and fill their holes. After the training the attendees could receive a diploma stating they were properly trained. Take the diploma and a nominal fee $5 or $10 to the parks and get a 1-year permit/license to dig in the state parks. The fee would be no different than a boat registration or fishing/hunting license. Print designated detecting areas on the map like they do hiking, biking, and camping areas. So there would be a revenue source for the state parks, people would have a hobby to get out and enjoy the state parks, and we could clean the parks while detecting. All I see are win, win, win. I received an emailed response. "Thank you for reaching out to us. I have sent this on to administration for their consideration, please await a response. " Dated September 3, 2019. Some people may be turned off by the fee but I'm throwing the government a carat.
Great ideas!!
where i live you dont need permits at all :)
+Emmanuel Flores You are lucky.
THAT RING IS OFF A SPINNING FISHING ROD
Cool! Thanks for watching my video!
i enjoyed your video over lunch, happy hunting
Thanks for having me along! Thanks for the comment too!!
Lol cool video. Love those Ranger.moments. most are pretty nice though in my experiences.
I didn't know you needed a permit to detect a beach or lake Park. Is that in every state?
No it’s not every state I’m in sc and from nc and I’ve never heard of having to have one till now ! Only for things like fishing and hunting !!!
The State Park I worked in for ten years. You got a permit for free. If found something notify them so to see if it was a part of the history there. When Fort Gibson lake was flooded for the dam there was the town of Ray, Oklahoma there. It's a free permit
This one is free too. But I don't understand why a permit is issues if they're not going to charge?
Im surprised you dont have to pay taxes on your finds
Don't say that too loud!! They might hear.......
@@mowerdog lol
😂😂😂 they take your stuff where I'm at if it's any significance, if your within so many yards of the lake and they check you out and you have old coins, consider them gone, land of the free
were is this at? what State and CIty?
Every time I detect nosy people come out of the woodwork. People are afraid you might get something they didn't find.
Yup. Lots of people think we're finding "Pots of GOLD!!
Good pictures with the hat cam--is that like the ones sold on ebay for about $ 50 ?
brewster102 Yes it is. I loved it while it was working. It bit the dust like the next day. It only lasted about 30 days. Then the ebay seller wouldn't take it back for repair or replacement even though they gave it a 1 year warranty. I had to get Paypal involved and they got my money back. Thanks for watching my vids!
In the state of Georgia, All State Parks are considered OFF LIMITS! Maybe there is a way around it? Not sure??
It depends on how the rules read. Sometimes it says you can search the beaches only. Or previously disturbed ground. I would just have to read it all.
Finding something would make the videos better😉other wise good show sir..stay warm.
hey did he have his permission from the kings men?
Absolutely!
If you were an Illegal the ranger would look the other way. Welcome to your new America.
heidi Holiday Great Idea, Dress like a Messican,EH.
Hopefully President TRUMP will get rid of most of these Federal Thugs.
heidi Holiday 👈Idiot thing to say.i
+heidi Holiday ...I hope you're right...
heidi Holiday This makes absolutely no sense
how ironic I'm watching this video exactly two years to the day this was filmed
Oh WOW! I didn't realize that. That's pretty cool! I guess I need to go back?
I was wondering where you were and then I heard you mention some cities. Here in California they just turned our local gold producing mountain canyon into a national monument.On our last casual drive up the hill, they are putting traffic signals in. What is odd about that is the location of the signals and the structures they are building nearby. The level of animosity by rangers is increasing daily, and recently someone got tazed. I suspect that most are rudely mouthing off to the rangers and that typically does not go well. I appreciated the way you spoke to him. My suspicion is that, in a sense, what we find is free, unaccountable income and that makes the government nervous. I think that if I cashed in my treasure I might get 150 for them. Obviously, I am not doing this for income, I just love it.
Osmer Harris The only thing I sell is broken jewelry. I did scratch a Franklin real bad and threw that in for melt but wished I hadn't of. I may not sell my broken jewelry anymore either. In fact I just decided not to sell anything as we speak!! LOL
Enjoyed the video
I'm glad you did!
I think that it us great that he checks you AND everyone else, which weeds out the people who don't have permits and expect forgiveness.
Yes
It blows my mind you had to have a permit 😂 that seems kind of ridiculous considering most hobbyists are packing trash out of there, it seems some places you can't do nothing without some kind of permit
He was very nice about it
Yes he was.
Watched the video, but I think you should probably change the name because there was no confrontation
How are is it to get a permit to detect a State Park beach? I have one near my house and they don’t allow detecting on the beach or in water so they say and if they do have permits how much red tape is it?
Not all State Parks allow detecting. The ones that do may or may not require a permit. You just have to check....
Good hunt
Funny, that's officer stark and if I didn't know better your at lake of the ozarks. Ive had the pleasure of receiving a ticket from him. Not a bad guy though. Been living there for about 18 years now.
What was the ticket for?
Appreciate the hard word dude!
Thanks for watching!
At least you got a ring. Congrats.
A ring is a ring. But a GOLD ring is way better! My last GOLD ring was last September. But it was a nice 14K with rocks! It was found on a fresh water beach. So I'm always hoping............
Many state parks prohibit metal detectors, period. Must be they don't want a lot of holes dug. In the tidelands it isn't an issue is it?
Usually you can detect up to the high water mark, beaches and other disturbed land. But check the rules before you go.
Hi nice hunt..make sure to show closeups if possible. New sub here Cheers
Will do. Thanks for watching
The compadre seems decent eh! I just ordered a bounty hunter tracker IV. I almost went for the compadre.
Hope i didnt mess up :P
You Tracker IV will find targets for sure.
Nice, thanks for the replys
I like the analog controls on the tracker 4.
I like the compadre too but im not keen that it doesent have a sensetivity knob. Also the two tone option is nice. And can switch modes easy without changing the disc/sensitivity
If the compadre had the same knobs ans switches as the mark4 i would have went for it instead probably.
Detecting is fun!!! Congrats on your Tracker!
Hello I'm new to your channel great video. i also metal detect here in Pennsylvania.
+58belvedere Welcome! Thanks for watching!
I loves me some pull tabs! Lol the ranger was cool, not sure why ya try to make it seem like a confrontation.
If I hadn't produced my permit I would have been shot on the spot! I mean he had his hand on his weapon most of the time! LOL. Really he did......
Now thats a decent Ranger!
He was nice.
Our laws here in wi for state parks are a joke! thanks in part to the dnr and closed door voting! but anyway--He seemed cool,And ya got a ring(can't pick what they're made of)!! Good luck on the next!
Thanks! I know once the DNR gets involved it's usually metal detecting is OK but you cannot disturb the soil. That's how it reads here in Missouri,
Here in California they'd probably require an environmental impact report, a scrap dealer's license and your left nut to go with that permit!
We're almost there!!
victorbrunswick and the permit to breathe the air there, too..
good. glad you have a permit excercise your rights! Like the time I needed a permit to fly model airplanes, I did but that jurk, another flyer, never showed me his licence. hope you gave him a hard time!
I figured the ranger would come down and ask him..... but he didn't. I guess they just want me to have it and nobody else. ..
