Works great even though I need to put more time in to the activity. Review: GREAT METAL DETECTOR-EASY TO USE! - Very happy with the Gold Bug Pro so far! Instructions are a lot easier to get started compared to my Garrett AT Gold. Very lite weight. I was disappointed after spending $800, there was no packaging to protect the detector and parts were lose inside the box. A bit expensive, by time you ship to Canada ! A good quality set of headphones and a Double DD coil supplied would be nice! But a great starter detector! Actually far easier to get started with than my Garret AT Gold. AT GOLD is great as well - both great units- highly recommend both. AT Gold is waterproof. I did upgrade the search coil to a 11" DETECH ULTIMATE coil and this coil works great for deep searching and covering more territory! ## Features - Lightweight & Ergonomic: The Gold Bug is the lightest in its class, offering an ergonomic design that reduces fatigue during long hours of searching. Its balanced build ensures comfort, ideal for serious gold nugget prospecting. - Two Search Modes: The detector offers All-Metal and Discriminate modes.

It also provides a depth readout and large target alert, offering precise data for accurate target identification - Advanced Ground Balance: Equipped with continuous ground phase and computerized ground grab, the Gold Bug ensures optimal ground balance in various terrains.
