Rsmull Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Found a promising new creek. Last couple of days I have found 2 nice 5 inch megs, a partial gomph tooth and what I believe is a 3 toe horse tooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plantguy Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Oh geez, I think there is an informal rule that states that during the first week of any new season you are only allowed one 5 inch tooth! I suppose we'll let you keep em both this time. Just teasing! Outstanding finds! Regards, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
