About This Scoop
This compact scoop shines in situations where space is limited or when you need surgical precision around sensitive targets. The 10mm hexagon holes strike the perfect balance - they wash sand and debris effectively while ensuring you don't lose small jewelry or coins.
The dual mounting system adapts to your hunting style. Use the top mount with a Dune Scoops handle for standing work, or grip it directly through the front opening for close-quarters digging. This versatility makes it ideal for water hunting where you're often switching between standing and kneeling positions.
Built from 1.5mm stainless steel, the Stingray handles everything from freshwater lakes to saltwater surf. It excels in challenging conditions like clay-mixed sand, shell-heavy beaches, and areas with heavy debris that would clog other metal detecting scoops.
Best Applications
This scoop performs exceptionally well in water and surf lines, sand mixed with silt or clay, and areas clogged with shells and stones. The hexagon hole pattern provides superior washing ability for quick target identification.
