My family and I just enjoyed a whirlwind, 3 day mini vacation. Tuesday we got up around 5am and left the house by 6 and headed to New Jersey. We arrived at Big Brook by 10:30. The day started off very slow. We weren't finding much and needed to move around a bit. Finally the last gravel bar that we hit started paying off pretty good. My family wasnt into it as much as me so the boys only found a few items ,but better then nothing. I scored a nice amount, of mainly sharkteeth. (Which is fine by me). Here is my haul.
