[QUOTE="Pieces-Of-Eight, post: 511061, member: 15910"] Thanks Wally, I've been running on standard beach 1 mode. Pin point is clear but i'll be honest I haven't reached for all metal mode in these scenarios as the initial signal is strong and clear (I have learnt with help from members here to use all metal mode when I'm getting mixed or multiple target tones (this has really help me with the bottle top identification)). The small Aluminium is possible but I do spread the spoils pile out a couple of times and rescan. I know the nox gets very excited with small aluminium targets but I generally retrieve even the smallest bits of foil (and have found that in high foil areas that the pinpoint covers a much wider area) The most confusing bit for me is that the ID lowers with each dig which seems counter intuitive if i'm getting closer to the target . The tiny bit of iron (with false ID) seems sensible and as Ded Driver suggests this may well be a fully corroded hook as I was picking up a few small lead sinkers in the same area. [/QUOTE]
