Videos of folks using metal detectors show them uncovering a target by fanning the bottom with their hand. In the lakes I often dive, this is the fastest way to induce Zero-Zero visibility.
I will be starting to use an underwater detector (Minelab Excalibur II) soon and any tips are appreciated. I do have 2 initial questions:
1. When you are using a metal detector on a silty lake bottom, how do you approach finding the target?
2. Does a detector sense deeper in silt than is sand or about the same?
Thanks
