    I just love the fact that you are doing what you love, we get to watch you, and it is getting all of that lead out of the rivers. Plus you show us your collections once in while.
    Life is good, and you are one of the best people in it.

    I met Beau yesterday on the river while also metal detecting!! He is an awesome guy, he chatted with us and showed off his finds of the day! I can't wait to see his next video showing those neat relics. Now I'm not going to tell you guys where, but you never know, Aquachigger could be floating down a river near you.

I will order from your folks to help support your efforts.

    It was a Pernacious Water beetle...and yes they do bite...hard...and they can get very large. I worked on a fish farm for 9 years...and they were a constant source of pain.

    That "Grommet" was a part of a flag, possibly retired after being shredded by bullets or weathered. The most likely put the flag to rest near the river and missed it. so actually a pretty rare find. I'm part of The BSA and we hold these ceremony's for the community on outings

    Paw Paw trees used to grow with such abundance along the rivers here in SW Michigan that we have a town named Paw Paw. Which is a nice memorial since the rivers were so polluted with industrial waste for so long that I dont believe theres a single paw paw tree left in the town that bears their name.

  • @inspiretodream3

    I have been researching my genealogy. The majority of my maternal grandfathers family were from West Virginia. Many fought in the civil war, and I found out one was a pow during the war. I enjoy watching your videos.

    Hohner was the first harmonica maker to mass produce the harmonica and he started supplies to the USA in 1868 and they had woiden inserts then too, so I think you are right that not from civil war period . sorry I had to go and Google 😲😲😲😜😂😂😂

    Love finding bullets. It's always an awesome feeling. Do you think that one bullet that is half white and half lead color is because the creek in low allowing oxidation on half the bullet? That's what I am thinking, but pretty cool. It's amazing when you find bullets so shallow. I always think how can people have missed them when I am in areas that have been hunted hard, but I guess sometimes with flooding silt is moved etc.. Cool button and spoons. I find a lot of bullets as well, but just got my oldest coin yesterday in the river and 1801 silver 2 Reales coin. Didn't even really check it out until I got back to my truck because we had to leave for the day, but will have it in my video. Awesome vid and appreciate you sharing....Ron

      That makes sense. You're probably right. My first thought was a pressure tank for a well system.

      @mikebaize6971 7 років тому +1
