Rappahannock creek hunting

[Rowboater]

Braved the cold, icy water for some digging in gravel and the hopes of something special.  Miserable, cold and rainy, and I'm sore today from squatting.  Not much quality wise in shark teeth, but good variety and quantity.  And no evidence of recent competition from the local kids (and adults).  All playing computer games?

 

Was happy to find some pieces of cowshark teeth (always wonder if I break them digging through the gravel?), several sand tiger symphyseal/ parasymphyseal teeth, a few angel shark, and apparently some small mako.  As usual lots of broken/split teeth.  I stuck my arm in the ice water to feel around in the muck for something bigger, but nothing.  Will try another, but needs to warm up/ dry up a bit.

Good to see you got out!

Looks like an impressive haul.

Great colors on those teeth!

Nice variety of species, size and color.

I agree the colors are very cool.
