sharklover Posted January 2, 2008 Author Share Posted January 2, 2008 Hey Is there no one in this new year that have the intention to do a benefaction.? When you must fly 10 hour and have nine day's to surch for shark teeth and echinoid's , what place you recommend in the Florida region or a very interesting other place. You must take the idea in your mind that you have only nine day's and like to surch each day. When you are in this situation, where you would go? give me some ideas of your favorite places.? Let we hold a vote to see what to be the best place is to surch for shark teeth and echinoids. Cor :Thumbs-up: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Siphuncle Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Sharklover, I don't live in FL but the Peace River between Arcadia and Zolfo Springs seem to be popular as well as Venice Beach and Casperson Beach. These places seem to be well known though. In FL 3 things will increase your finds dramatically: scuba gear, a boat, and a serious local collector willing to help you out. The FL panhandle rivers seem to be decent for echinoids from what I've heard as are some of the central and north Florida quarries and spoil areas. When I travel to collect I tend to establish a rapport with a local well in advance, bring him or her some pretty good fossils from my area, spread my efforts so I don't overwork his favorite areas during my trip, then keep his sites secret. If you try approaching people individually with private emails you might get a better response as some folks don't wish to divulge their best sites on a public forum. Hope this helps.

darren Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 If you dive and want sharks teeth let me know. Venice is good for 300 tooth dives with the occasional meg. D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
