      @406findings I do as well. Do you ever think about digging in some areas on the river? Or is it illegal to disturb the river bed?

      @@Mike-br8vb I have dug holes looking for stuff but never had any luck so it's more surface picking than anything and it's ok to dig on the river gravel bars as far as I know.

    Holy cow, brother! You took home a BUNCH of world class pieces there! That last one was a monster, but I'm equally as impressed with that banded one right before it. And I can't wait to see the moss and iris inside some of those other ones. As usual, you manage to check off both the size and quality boxes in one shot!
