Silver and teeth(1)
Being that my Internet has been down for about 2 weeks now I haven't had time to post this trip. It started with some scattered showers at work. Despite the weather I wanted to try my luck at the beach. It had been almost a month since my last trip and I was hoping something new fell. Johnny met me in the parking lot and we walked down. We were finding some ordinary stuff when I noticed a new fall. Not to big but perfect size. All the RIGHT material had blown out of the cliff-face. We spent some time poking around. I ended up finding a great meg. A couple porpoise teeth. A few hammerheads, a cow and some basic teeth.
The next day I made the trip again. Not so lucky this time. All the good stuff was now covered up with 5 feet of Choptank material-(which is for the most part worthless). I gave it my best try but was unable to locate anything of size.
The random coins at the bottom were found with a metal detector behind my job site in Columbia, MD. My best finds of the year so far.
It was a lovely day outside today, with temps in the upper 70s! I went back to the same beach but the finds were minimal. A exception was a zone 4 tiger shark and porpoise ear bone. A sharpnose (rare for me) and a sympheseal G. Contortus, and a rather large fish tail bone.
Hope all you guys did well in Aurora.
