I love hunting in north Florida. What I do is find freshly plowed fields near a river, like the Suwannee. Then I ask for permission, and then I walk the fields methodically. Looking after a rain is best. look for odd rocks and pick up anything strange. If I'm not finding anything, I leave and look somewhere else. Looking for artifacts in a river can be more rewarding, but obviously more difficult. If I were you, I would start in the fields. Hope this helps!

Good luck, and post your finds!

Sounds like exactly the way we hunt here in Southwest Georgia as well.

learn what flint looks like.
look for flint flakes.
any where you find flakes.
is a good spot. a hunting camp or a village, or the site the flint comes from.
stay near the water within 1 mile anyway's.(river,creeks,springs)
i do it this way because so many times the point is just barly showing.
you harly ever find a point laying on top of the ground. where you can see the whole shape.
look for flakes, pick them all up. you be glade you did one day.
when you reach down to get what you think for sure is just a flake, and a 5 in. point pulls out.

Very good and thurough advice you just got. You will be successful if you follow that.

What's not working, your life? your husband? your skills at finding stuff? And you get all this advice and you will take to the woods, the streams, the great outdoors and maybe you will discover something. But if you really want to find stuff either get GatorBoy to come show you the way(you're in the same state, buy him a bus ticket) or call him while you're out there and let him guide you over the phone. He is the best ever. Just don't ever tell him one of his artifacts looks like a rock. He kinda goes off the deep end on that. Seriously pm him, get a phone number and give him a call. Now that's the way to do it. Either that or you could find Boom Baby somewhere. Looks like with him you'd eat good and probably find Chief Osceola's wallet, still filled with his id card, driver's license and a picture of the family, which you would then sell to a collector for $40,000 after you learned to yell Boom Baby properly. Anyway, good luck...

 

[GatorBoy]

Haha..that was awesome! Seriously I would be glad to help. "BOOM"

Shelly google your area and start your hunts where things have been found before. Google earth can show you many spots to hunt.

 

[GatorBoy]

This is a good thread. Here's one...Google archaeological sites in your area and walk nearby shorelines.

 

[tomclark]

"walk nearby shorelines" Dig where you find chips!

Shelly, I love your name!

GatorBoy don't you look at those spoons bottom right!.....

[GatorBoy]

Ha... not lookin!

 

[GatorBoy]

It was my first time in this particular area..... I walked until I saw one single chip...then slowed way down..in about an hour that beautiful point was in my hand. Found everything in about two hours at a new spot I found on my own. It feels great when you discover a spot no one else has.

 

[GatorBoy]

I love the spots you need a boat to get to.

 

[Age_old]

Wow cool spot, Gator!!

 

[GatorBoy]

Ty.

What the heck is this all about? Just asking, I don't want to participate if it's a domestic gone on line. Just a weird post to me.

 

[GatorBoy]

Ya think? LOL.

 

[GaRebel1861]

Well, at least your name was brought up and not mine! I learned to duck & cover a long time ago. BTW, If you need a bus ticket somewhere, I'm sure we can pass the hat around here.

 

[GatorBoy]

Haha.. I got your bus ticket..LOL.
