11-1-10 beach finds

[wwwtimmcp]

I got out for 2 hours today, just on the shoreline swinging and digging. I found a horseshoe,fishing lure,2 sinkers,the shortest ships spike I have ever found and it is not broken,some sort of plastic lens and a pointy object that looks like it was part of a gear puller, lots of barbed wire fence and iron from a cooking grate.

happy hunting to all.

That nail is screaming old.

I like the mister twister Jig and grub lure too!

Very interesting finds on a beach. What beach were you at? Is there any noteworthy history about the area?

 

[wwwtimmcp]

the only notes available are written by me. the 3 shipwrecks here span over 230 years. it is going to be a pretty good book. history failed this area very badly, but given the timing I can see why. I guess it is my job to tell the tale.

Now you are sounding verrrrrry interesting. Shipwrecks? What body of water are you talking about? If you are in Ohio, would it be lake Erie? I plan on going up to Presque Isle this weekend to detect the beaches, have you ever done that?
