Hi,

Can anyone advise me on purchasing a good quality stainless steel or aluminium long handled beach scoop for when I go detecting on the beach.

Brands/prices etc

Thanks

 I suggest a metal scoop is not ideal, it is impossible to wave the coil over the scoop to see if the target has been scooped.

A plastic scoop can be bought from any detecting shop, I made one from a Piece of 150mm Poly (white) drainage pipe.

I have a unit similar to this, and one without the handle that I have inserted an AL tube ( long handle) so I can use it in the shallows.
