The RTG 28-inch stainless steel sand scoop is designed exclusively for dry sand hunting and is not suitable for shallow water or surf use. The scoop is engineered for above-waterline recovery where sand drains freely, not for environments where wave pressure and suspended sand require different basket engineering. Detectorists working the wet sand or surf zone should consider RTG's Pro Aluminum 6x11 water scoop, which has a larger basket and angled handle designed for foot-push entry into wet sand.
