New Members AlwaysISOSharkTeeth412 Posted May 11 New Members Share Posted May 11 Took my fourth and thus far most productive trip out to Matoaka Beach yesterday. The tide was high and the water choppy after Thursday’s storms. I had the place to myself for a good three hours. A few minutes into searching, I found this beauty in situ. The rest of my finds pictured below all came from using the tide to sift through matrix I scooped up. The largest tooth, which is my largest find to-date, was pulled from my last scoop of the day. Very exciting! I’m still a novice at identifying so any insight would be most welcome on any of my findings. I’ve been taking day trips out to Calvert area from Pennsylvania for the past nine months or so, and I’m officially hooked! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmo Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 Nice finds! You can keep an eye out for coral there too. I generally find at least a quart size baggie when I’m at that site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not post a pic of it though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
