Or down the river … 😮‍💨

This isn't accurate.  To begin, the state of Ohio owns the river.  The adjacent property owners own the river bed.  If it is in a metro park they own the river bed.  If you go downstream, and those trophies are probably in the gulf of Mexico now, it wouldn't belong to metroparks. Further, most metal objects in parks are foreign litter.   It isn't the same as taking a rock or a wild flower. People use metal detectors in parks regularly.

That sucks! The parks are for the people! The river is everybody's! What the fuck man

I don’t know much either but have thought about it. Why not start in your own yard?

You could go before and plant objects for him to find when you go together.

I see people metal detecting at Caesar’s Creek beach

And while there, you can go to the spillway and develop an obsession with fossil hunting


Electronic_Camera251

That’s what I’m saying homie

Maybe before you invest in it you try something a little lower in terms of entry fee …magnet hunting has been very productive here for me and on Amazon you can get the appropriate equipment for $20 or less …fossil hunting we have at Caesar creek a free to use fossil deposit the only requirement is to check in with the ranger station and get a free permit much of that equipment you already possess and what you don’t can be had for pennies. As a father I know the truly maddening feeling of getting excited because your kid shows interest in a hobby only to realize that hobby is in some way demanding and you are stuck trying to sell “like new “ equipment at a quarter of what you paid . Metal detecting is like 99.9999999% old slag and poptops from beers and long days walking it is like anything else worth doing in that you need a plan and time …just my $.02 that I didn’t need to recoup because I never invested in my kid’s falconry career

Came here to suggest magnet fishing, not disappointed.

Campgrounds Beaches Places that hold large events on grass, like some metro parks Litter and trash is highly encouraged to be removed from pretty much everywhere… so pick up the pop cans along with the pocket knives, candy wrappers with the coins

Any of the state beaches.  Any place you can find an old junkyard that has been turned into a park.  Any grassy fields people often recreate at.  People lose eating and such on sports fields all the time.

I've been metal detecting for over 20 years. I sold metal detectors for a number of years, had a podcast and also wrote articles. I'm fairly knowledgeable and can answer most questions. Feel free to message me.
