  • Today we journey way up north to Down East Maine to visit with and metal detect with my old friend Capt'n Billy of Jonesport. Our friend Thor joins up with us later in the day and then things get wild. I hope you tag along for a little Down East Maine adventure.
    About Aquachigger:
    I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure,
    metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my UA-cam "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
    BTW, you can also catch me here, / chiggsarmy ,but I may get a little edgier there. FB isn't a place for kids anyway...lol.

    I lived in Washington county for about 14 years, nice to see you get up there! I have often wondered about the metal detecting opportunities in that area, people have lived there for 1000s of years, all of the houses are pretty dang old. As to the "well" in that field, hay fields in that area often have very high water tables and in the spring, as the snow melts, the water table can simply be the surface of the ground. That well maybe only 2 or 3 ft deep because the water table is so high.

    • @aquachigger
      @aquachigger  Рік тому +6

      Yep, you're probably right. I think a farm animal might die in it if it fell in though.

    At the 6:57 mark that brassy glass lens "thingy" looks to be an "inspection window" for an oil reservoir for a tractor. It was used to show the level of oil within a crankcase or something.
    That is my guess anyway.
    I have a similar "window" on my new Kubota MX-5400.
