Shellseeker Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Almost did not go out today. The river has been deep, muddy, and fast moving. It take a lot of effort just to paddle to a location that was producing small teeth and a few larger Hemis. Also I was tired having been out twice already to the River, and been very busy all week on the non fossil hunting efforts. The lure of the unexpected was once again too strong to resist. Pushing the envelope. I had been digging for two hours when the 1st unexpected happened -- a 2.6 inch Olive Green Meg. Big smile ... big smile. 15 minutes later another nice Meg 1.5 inches with good serrations. Brought a camera and took some photos. Megs have always been unexpected for me, They only show up in those places where I think they are really unlikely.. A very good day indeed.

Shellseeker Posted June 16, 2013 Author Share Posted June 16, 2013 Nice, I love it when it's worth it, but then again I guess it always is. How about some pics of those hemis? This is a good spot for Hemis -- the largest ones are between 1.25 and 1.5 inches. Found 8 in that range in the last two Fridays. But really like this one with unusual color for the Peace, much like the 2 Megs -- Must have been in the clay protected from the tannin laced water.. Thanks to all for the good comments.
