    Yankeetown Echnoid Hunt

    Last week I had the opportunity to be in Florida so I made my way out to the Withlacoochee bay trail for a little while to look for some loose echnoids. I didn't get any pictures of the finds in situ... poor planning on my part. Here is everything after I got home. They still need to be cleaned up. I believe I saw people soaked them in vinegar and gently use a toothbrush to get the sand and miscellaneous debris off? I also found the tiny 'clam' shell amongst the loose limestone chunks where where I found the echnoids, not sure if it is modern or fossil to be honest. The large mass of debris in the upper left was attached to one of the echnoids I had picked up. It must have broken loose during the ride home. I will try breaking it down to see if there is anything of interest in it. I think the 2 on the right closest to the cube are a different species since they are flatter than others.
  2. Yesterday I picked up this liquor display rack that was thrown away and I decided to take it to display the Withlacoochee Coral that I received from John @Sacha from a couple of his recent auctions to support the Forum. This rack is solidly built as it was made to hold many bottles and the top has a huge plexiglass cover. I had a plexiglass riser that I placed inside to display 2 of my favorite pieces on the top shelf. I think it will hold these pieces quite nicely.

    Tooth or Fossilized Ninja Star???

    Alright time to nip this in the bud. Scored this wicked little thing on the Withlacoochee near where it meets the Suwannee, I’ve posted it in three other groups online and while I’ve had 30 claims as to it being a worn-down shark tooth, I’ve had an equal amount of disputes. Help me solve this mystery and I’ll upvote all of your posts from here on out. Edit: I put in under my pillow last night hoping to make a quick buck but the Fossil Fairy left me a note telling me to keep it.
  4. Hey all, I am new here and to the hobby in general so I apologize if I am not following some etiquettes that I don't know about. I just wanted to share my experience on the Withlacoochee river so that maybe someone else can learn from it. My buddy and I drove up to the Florida Georgia line to visit the Withlacoochee river and hunt for some agatized coral. I am a senior geology student and none of my fellow classmates or professors I've asked know how or where to fossil hunt for whatever reason so I am learning this all myself. Anyways, I brought a couple kayaks and we got on the river with neither of us having a clue what to look for other than what information I could find on this wonderful forum. We spent the better part of an hour loading down the kayaks with what now appears to be junk rocks and paddling upstream towards some gunshots on the north side of the bank shooting west to east that we inferred we're coming from the gun range we saw signs for. When we got close enough to hear the snap of the bullets before they hit their steel targets, I noticed that the bed of the river was full of the coral so I hopped in and started loading up with rocks despite my friend's insistence that this was not a smart place to be. We could hear the shots hitting the steel and ricocheting off into the trees, but I figured I was safe down in the river. After about 10 minutes, one of the ricochets impacted about 2 feet away from us and startled us real good. We booked it out of there and went upstream hoping to come back when the range closed. Eventually we ran out of time and had to paddle back past the range, luckily with no close calls but there was still shooting unnervingly close. While we were loading up the kayaks on the ramp under the highway, however, another bullet whizzed over our heads. This was about a mile away from the range. We drove past the range on our way back to kindly suggest they do something to fix this in the future, and we were not taken seriously. The worker even tried to tell me it was a different man on the south side of the river, yeah right. I did learn that they were closed on Mondays, so maybe I can make another trip out there to actually find some decent coral. Anyways, be safe out there everyone. I would enjoy hearing about other stories similar to this so that I may learn the easy way in the future.
