Guest bmorefossil Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 On the beach we had 3 lines of gravel, I took the high line because 5 feet from the boat i found a meg up there so i figured thats where all the good stuff would be, oh boy was i right. So i stayed with the high line all the way down the beach and ended up with well you see. Every 10 feet or so i would find something great, either a nice hemi, mako or meg! I cant even tell you which came first because by the time i reached the end of the beach i had 9 megs in the bag. Then i started to look in the blocks and i find 2 more megs, so thats 11, i look over and about 30 feet away i see this black thing sticking out of the block, it was a 5" meg, but when i dug at it, the broken tooth fell right out......so i found what once was a 5" tooth. Next to that block i did see a snout from something so i dug that out, but when i went back for the rest of it there was a foot of sand over where i think the block was. Then i get down to my dad and he found 3 megs and in his bag i see this huge vert!!!! from a shark. He also had a nice sized fish tail. When we walked a little way down the beach my dad gets a call on the cell so i was able to pick up the squalodon he walked over. (= Some other nice stuff we found were the dolphin teeth, seal vert, a big fish vert, a cow shark tooth, croc tooth, some nice makos largest 1 7/8", 15 megs largest 3". some associated verts, and some other great stuff. I guess i had to keep up with everyone at lee creek. Good luck everyone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megaselachus13 Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Unbelievable, What a number of teeth for just one day. Here I dream with something like that. Especially nice the three small carcharocles . I have observed that some peaks are more pronounced. Are chubutensis?. Greetings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreekCrawler Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 Nice.....very nice!!! The tooth on the third row all the way on the right looks like Bone Valley material! Looks like you need more display boxes again. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maryland Mike Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 What a day! With that kind of luck, I hope you bought a lottery ticket. Ok, you've convinced me. I've got to get a boat, which means I need a new job with some weekdays off and a lot more money. Carpe Diem, Carpe Somnium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Wow! What a fantastic day!

JohnJ Posted September 30, 2008 Share Posted September 30, 2008 Steven, Apparently you need a "Meg-belt". That way you're less likely to lose track of one. Besides, there's a safety issue with Megs in your shorts. Congrats! The human mind has the ability to believe anything is true. - JJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
