Hey stimulate the economy buy the detector and wetsuit and have at it, Jerry you might defeat the odds at that.
BUT of those 360+ natural ponds, at least 359 of them are kettle lakes with glacial origins..any "impact pit/crater" older than 8000-13,000 years would have been filled by glacial debris. Seems like a soil sampling auger would be more meaningful than a metal detector. Frankly, given a 300+ year Anglo history in New England, I'll further wager at least 359 of those ponds have iron in them anyway. I always hedge against the 6thSD outlier. The only way to know for sure is sample them all.

An additional motivation to invest in an underwater detector to confirm or dispute my own personal suspisions about some of their origins.
