Another small tooth dayWe had been at Aurora on Sunday the 25th and decided to stay over to search in GMR on Monday. On Sunday I found my smallest Meg ever. Little did I know it was going to be another one of those days. I had only been to this creek once before and didn't find a complete Great White that day so that was my goal today just one complete Great White to take back to Maryland.
The first thing I noticed was that there were little piles of sifted gravel as far as the eye could see. I knew there had to be at least one spot the many collectors had missed, I just needed to find it. I found a small little gravel bar in some deep water and the first shovel had the tip of a GW! Twenty minutes later and who knows how many shovels of gravel I spotted a small tooth in my screen. I picked it up to stick with the others when I noticed it had serrations! It was the tooth I was after even if it was a small one. The blade was complete and the root was in good shape. It only measured 11/16th inches but it was grateful to have found it after all the recent activity in the creek. By the time I left I had also found a small Mako with awesome coloration, a Sawfish tooth, and what I belive to be a small posterior crow shark tooth. What a great way to end a weekend!!
