Foshunter Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Last summer my son and myself went to Lake Texoma for a hunt. I had dreams of finding the elusive Paraptychodus washitaenis, seems dreams is all that materialized, guess that is why they are elusive. Did find a few echinoids and small ammonites and brought home a nice Cretalamna appendiculata in the matrix. My son was hunting the big complete ammonites, myself, I wasn't excited about packing one of these monsters all the way back to the car. Always have a great time hunting with my son, started him hunting the Sulphur R. when he was seven, still tries to out do me, often he does, trust me he likes to rub it in.-----Tom Nice Creto. Echinoids Gar party that went bad Glad I didn't have to back this out, you find, bigger means heavier When we returned to Florida, Mr. Toad was on guard atop of my Nautiloid Grow Old Kicking And Screaming !!"Don't Tread On Me" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeffrey P Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Why the forgotten trip? Looks like some very rewarding finds, especially the echinoids. I take it those are Cretaceous. Congrats . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
