Wet / Muddy soil tips

Wet and muddy soil metal detecting tips.

A few tips when hunting in wet / muddy soil:

  • Use a low frequency DD search coil. 
  • If the soil is very drenched, lower the threshold.  
  • After lowering threshold, the next option is to apply mineral control. 
  • Lift the search coil marginally higher from the ground than usual during search.
