Traveling this holiday weekend & Tried river hunting for the 1st time and had a great day! This site has been on my radar for a few years now, was hoping for lower water levels, but glad I gave it a try!
It's my 1st true silver dollar and I was very pumped to see that in my scoop! Also found a silver Qt & plenty of junk too! 20171124_193017.jpg

Wow! What a nice find! It appears that you are hunting where few would hunt, and it paid off. How deep was the water? Pics of the "junk" you found would be interesting as well.

Gotta love that. I've found a few clad Ike dollars but never a silver one. That's a big one to cross off the list. Congrats! :occasion14:
