You know the Johnny Cash song. One Piece at a Time. Well he is building a Cadillac. I happen to be building a 1950 Plymouth. Got the hood ornament, Mirror, one bumper gravel guard and a few other pieces that might not go to it as they have no numbers but still different finds. Also a Plymouth key.

The freshwater shark weighs about 10lbs. Looks like a black tipped.

I was excited about the gold. FIRST blue star sapphire ring I have found. 14K, 6.56 grams.

I also found a 1935 Merc and a 1950 wheat. This was my third dive. Yesterday I found a few odds and ends but had to quit early as I was being run over by boats.

I thought of an idea with that one also. Cops can shoot folks trying to run over them with automobiles. I don't want to put holes in their boats or ruin their weekend. I was thinking an automatic paint ball gun. Black, blue and red splotches would look good on a million dollar white boat don't you think?

I could then prove they were closer than 200' to me and color their world! Hear an engine pop up and have the paintball air tank in my float with the gun on top and just pull the trigger. I think that would get their attention for sure.

While we were leaving I got a call about an I-pad and an I-phone in a marina less than 5 miles away. Went there and got both in about two minutes. That added to my daily total. No idea if either can be saved but they wanted them.

A lot of bullets including two 50 cal heads. A rare find for me is a live BB cap round. My father had a BB cap rifle and the I think the bullets are hard to find. A nice Fire King white bowl, made in USA and a few other odds and ends.

Made for a great weekend.

Lots of fun targets, with some nice pieces of jewelry. :occasion14:
 

Looks like you enjoyed yourself, congrats on your finds
 

Very nice hunt anytime you find gold! You did great!
 

The downrigger weight hurt to lose. Not as much as the rings though!
The Johnson silver (?) Minnow lost it's shine ,but not it's shape.

Great recoveries.
 

Great finds, congrats on the awesome, gold, blue star sapphire ring & song too! :icon_thumright:

 

BEAUTIFUL RING..
 

Awesome finds. The Yeungling brewery(bottle cap) is right up the road from me in the next town.
 

can't find the "LOVE IT" button_______ "like" seems a bit inadequate for that KICK- :censored: haul
 

great sassy molassy, I wish I could scuba ( BTW bud light lime is good stuff)
 

Like that fishing lure! Congrats on that 14K ring!!!!!!
 

Sweet bling! Sorry to hear about people buzzing you, that's awful. I always love your posts!
 

I look forward to seeing the car when you get it completed.
 

Those are some of the most beautiful pop tops I have ever seen!

Interesting finds and sweet Star sapphire ring! I want to see when you find the engine to the Plymouth and bring that beast up! Paintball those boaters, might startle them or may make them fire back, hard to tell. spotted yacht, neat!

The sheriff said I could be arrested for felony assault? They are coming at me with a lethal weapon and I just want to color their world? I think not. I am going to contact an attorney and see what they think. Cops can use deadly force at a vehicle coming at them. Why can't I grab some attention and paint a boat coming at me?

I know how cops think. I will see what the law really is. Cops have to see a boat within 200 foot of my flag. If they see a painted boat they would know beyond a shadow of a doubt it was within 50' of my flag. Automatic paintball gun with air tank in my float, that would give me a warm fuzzy feeling when the million dollar yacht was colored in splotches!
