- Matty and his wife, Jennifer, are gracious hosts. They taught us all about metal detecting and gave a a few pointers that made it fun and easy! They had everything we needed-equipment, beach chairs, snacks and water, and, even had “planted” “finds” for us. The three of us came away hooked on metal detecting! Please go give them a try-it’s fun and exciting to see what you can find! And, being on Simmons Island is the perfect setting. They also gave us interesting information about the area. Thanks Matty and Jennifer!

Successful new beach adventure - We were doing a day trip in Kenosha. Matty was great! The trip was easy to reschedule, it was easy to find the starting location, and it was very easy to learn. We had a great time!
