"What are the rules regarding metal detecting in State Parks and elsewhere on Michigan State Lands?
Thanks,
Inquirer"
Answer from Webmaster and Joe C.: "Read and understand the laws before you go out detecting. This website accepts no responsibility or liability for information provided/not provided in regards to said regulations. It is your responsibility to become informed about federal,state,local rules governing the hobby.
Check with authorities where you plan to hunt if necessary. Ignorance is no excuse, and you may be fined, have your equipment confiscated(or worse) if rules/regulations are violated.
