eannis6 Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Hello everyone! I took my girlfriend on her first Fossil hunting adventure today and she is hooked! It started off very slow but she picked up a few little teeth then we ate lunch. Soon, we bagan to find the teeth we went all the way there for. We used waiders and walked down the beach, and she picked up a tooth and said “what’s this?” It was a fragment of a small megalodon tooth!!! I couldn’t believe it. What a great trip. Thanks for viewing. Below are our finds! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcbshark Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Very nice, it seems a lot of the more successful hunters up that way hunt all winter. Here in Florida we have our lowest tides of the year in the winter months 1 Every once in a great while it's not just a big rock down there!

MeargleSchmeargl Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 A lot of nice finds! Too bad that Meg was a casualty of feeding wear. Every single fossil you see is a miracle set in stone, and should be treated as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
