JD3B Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Hello everyone! My name is Jacob and after about a year of lurking in the shadows I have taken the dive into creating an account, thanks to a few friends that are active here and giving me the ol peer pressure treatment. I live and work in Washington state, am brand new to fossil hunting and fossils in general, but consider myself an expert at finding and packing out leave-r-ights. I have zero prep experience but after a recent trip to the Green River formation I have come home with some awesome practice fish (and some beautiful not practice fish that will wait) and hope to pull the trigger on some prep tools very soon. Feel free to ask me questions if I left anything cool out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossilis Willis Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Giving in to peer pressure is always a good idea. Glad to have you along good buddy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RJB Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 I think this is the 2nd time ive ever visited the 'Memeber introduction' but since I already know you, here I am. I was wondering how you and Will decided how to divie up all those fish, but then realized you guys did so well and found so many that it had to be easy. Would love to see you and Will's prep jobs when done. Nice to see you on the forum. RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD3B Posted June 15, 2021 Author Share Posted June 15, 2021 Thank you for the welcome, everybody. I might not be as active as many on here, that’s just my nature, but I look forward to learning and sharing my finds with y’all. 4 hours ago, RJB said: I was wondering how you and Will decided how to divie up all those fish, but then realized you guys did so well and found so many that it had to be easy.

Naw, I let him take pretty much everything and sort through what he really wanted, and he was gracious enough to hand over a couple beautiful prisci and a diplo, as well as some other knightias and practice fish. I have a lot to learn on the prep side, and many more trips to the quarry to fill my wall with what I want. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
