The secret is mexican sand for me, I always get 20 lbs from a private beach near playa del carmen, less suntan oils and more crude oil

Yes, but only when in Mexico, and after or before acid bath.

You're not getting this, are you? You're missing acid, MB7, Mexico, and probably the left side of a Twix bar. You clearly aren't qualified to keep dolphins...
