Cris Posted August 10, 2018 Share Posted August 10, 2018 I managed to get out for a hunt with some friends a couple days ago. Lots of rain here in Florida means the rivers are flooded, but the creek hunting is good. We managed to find a new spot that hasn't been hunted before and pulled some very nice fossils out. I am actually going back to this spot in a few minutes, because I'm obsessed. If you're not interested in watching the video, here's a bunch of the finds (but not all): A big dugong vert. Two megs from the same screen. A pretty little mako! And some of the shark tooth highlights from the end of the hunt! Can't wait to get back there later today and see what else is hiding in there! -Cris 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goatinformationist Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Dang junior, the only thing you didn't find was Spanish gold. Oh well you'll probably find that with the next shovel full. Best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
