Premise
editTreasure hunter Murry Crowe is joined by Robertson brothers Jase and Jep of Duck Commander, as they metal detect various locations. United by a shared passion for the hunt, the trio embarks on expeditions to unearth hidden treasures using metal detecting technology. Their collaboration was sparked when Crowe, facing a diagnosis of cancer, invited the brothers to join him on one of his quests. Leveraging Murry's innovative engineering skills, they employ state-of-the-art equipment designed specifically for their treasure-seeking endeavors. The primary plot features various nationwide adventures of Murry, Jase, and Jep, usually with a subplot involving the Robertson's Uncle Si humorously managing various aspects of the endeavors from their hometown of West Monroe. The show also incorporates aspects of reality series Duck Dynasty, such as cameos from that show and expanding on events that have transpired since then.[4]
