@yogiudo Well, the diving is a hobby, so I am looking at least to have the hobby pay for itself, say by recycling the lead....that could take a couple years to log 400 dives.
@anyusmoon1 Today, Lead is 1.20, only 10 years ago it was a mere 0.20...and in 2007 it actually hit 1.80 (about the same time everything else bubbled). I do think lead will get to 1.75-2.00 range in a year or two.
@anyusmoon1 I think you are right.....at first I thought it was two critters "jetting out" (cuz I didn't think I had moved the find in such a direction, ie vertical).....but, it seems more like it is some shot on end of line...ahahaha (removed that statement from description).... Aloha, UC
Cool! Looks like you're now using a dredge with a floating sluice? With the price of gold soaring these days you should find out if there are any gold bearing streams near you.
Wow...if you are able to pull 1/2 ton of lead out of the ocean, I'm calling the national news networks and demanding they do a story on it!!! Good for you!
Classic USCM, Good work!

How long does it take to do 400 dives though? $2800 is a decent payload - but if it takes you a month to do it...

@100rag22x30 yeah, its been murky lately......depends on the surf.

Ha! I was wondering if those were additional lead weights on a line spitting out of that shot. Cool.
Do you really think lead is going to hit 1.75?

@june201955 Yeah, it is unfortunate...but Hawaii has no gold or silver at all.

@UnderseaCaveman Well then, I would be concentrating on/near the beaches for jewelry & coins. Aye?
june201955 7 months ago
@june201955 You are right....coin also pops in these depths....jewelry, yes....so far only found a nominal earring in the deep.
