I hit my favorite spot on the river bank today for about 2 hours and did fairly well. This spot hasn't failed me yet this year and I have found something nice every trip there. I found the first one, a nice Stemmed Point, about 2 feet off the bank in about 3 inches of water. I had just bent down to pick up a piece of flint and I saw the tip sticking out from under the rocks. The second one, a nice little Brewerton Shallow Notch type I had walked right past going down river and found it going back up. It may have washed out from the waves created by a couple of boats that went by, but my footprints were about a foot from it. I also found a crude knife with a big stack on the back and the base of of what would have been a nice black Stemmed Point.

Here's the in situs and the cleaned up pictures.

Nice Steve. I drove over the river and it looks like we are on our way to winter pool. The leaves make it tough on the banks. I look forward to Febuary when no one is out and go by boat. Filling freezers of fresh venison at the moment. Thanks for sharing your hunts as always.

I work on the Ohio in the winter months as a barge line pilot, seems to flood in the winter months!
Always want to walk the banks instead of shove barges up and down the river!

Great finds,keep on lookin'
