From the land of the Bluenose.....the above captioned detectorist reports receiving reliable information from a confidential informant that the lowering of Lake Banook will continue for another month. Acting on this tip Detectorist Swinger 3rd Class Bluenoser proceeded to the fore mentioned location to pursue any wrong doers and those fleeing prosecution at 0845hrs. Upon arrival at the location the above captioned detectorist noted the weather conditions and that indeed the lake had receeded approx. 3.5 meters from it's original position exposing the slime that lay in the inner city.
Proceeding as per the "SOP'S" said detectorist began a sweep and in the first few swings uncovered an area that served as a "chop shop." Lord only knows what the parts for these machines would bring and who owned them as the vin numbers had been totally corroded. CPIC and NCIS came back negative.
At 0919hrs an illegal alien was found on the sweep. He didn't speak English, French nor Hungarian for that matter and was taken to Canada Customs for an "interview" which would earn a few brownie points with the boss and a favour owed. Still nagged at where he came from.
After observing the lay of the land I located two more icons similar to the last one that I found which led me to believe that; A......someone from the NHL had been using the lake or B... someone else less skilled was skating on thin ice!
Could sense that I was close to the ring leaders and there they were hanging deep in bowels of the underworld where they thought they were safe from detection....fat chance. Put one through the tumbler with some local aquarium stone, Mean Green and vinegar which softened him up...he shone afterwards. See annex below and note far upper left with one of his silver soldiers right beside him who was bent out of shape big time..
Then I came upon a suspect that was not all there and no matter what I tried he wouldn't squeal or rat anyone out!
Bouy was missing a few bricks from the wall, dragging a half full dip net for a brain! Of course I located the green marble that had rolled out.
Well my shift was over with the Sgt.with my domestics, not my stats which included 6 dinkies, 3 sinkers,dog tag, 2 silver rings, 2 kid rings, foreign bouy, half a foreign bouy, 7 keys, earing,golf egg, green marble, propeller and 173 coin collars (9 quarters, 3 twoonies, and 3 loonies bit the dust on this watch and ended up in the gas tank as payroll was late again) @ $20.78. Long 7 hour shift and I was going home leaving Bud at the office and meeting up with "Crown Royal" for some "lively conversation!"
Good to have my PC (personnal computer) back up and running again after the power dewy had blown!
