Diving Into Sunken Treasures: Epic Metal Detecting In Underwater Rivers!

Ойын-сауық

Today we metal detect underwater in a nice clear, cool river. We explore an old fording area and search for relics, coins, and bottles. The river water is very clear and warm, but a stiff breeze keeps things chilly above water.
About Aquachigger:
I enjoy metal detecting for historical items like gold coins, relics, silver coins, and other buried treasures. I also metal detect for gold and silver nuggets and even meteorites. I like to make videos that promote my choice of lifestyle that includes outdoor adventure,
metal detecting, yapping, searching for river treasure, SCUBA diving, exploring abandoned places, hiking, caving, caring for animals and pets, and observing the things outdoors that often go unnoticed by most people who are not familiar with outdoor adventures and nature. I keep my KZread "Aquachigger" channel family-friendly and hope you subscribe if you like my style.
BTW, you can also catch me here, / chiggsarmy ,but I may get a little edgier there. FB isn't a place for kids anyway...lol.

    Every time you find a rod and real in the water, it brings me back to the early 1960's when I was around six. My uncle took me to a river to go fishing. We started out befor dawn. When we got set up it was daylight. When I got my line in the water, it wasn't long befor a big fish grabbed the worm and pulled the rod from me and into the river. My uncle said, as he jumped up to stay there and he ran off and disappeared into the trees. A moment later I heard a splash and a few moments from then, he came back with the lost rod and real. Later I caught the first fish ever, a large carp and after getting home, it was still flopping around while I poised for a photo. Wonder if if the photo is still around.

    Congrats for not getting skunked, Chigger. Time for new gloves. I use the chainmail fileting gloves for moving gravel, just a suggestion. They usually last all summer. My recent finds worth noting about was three IJG Buttons on my recent trip to the Savanna River bank in Georgia. I stopped years ago detecting artillery shells, but there were lots of heavy iron signals. I am back now detecting around the Union forts in Washington State. The problem with detecting on WA state or DNR lands is we can't keep the finds.
