Hey Kyle, did a little research on Joe Brodowski for you. Joseph F. Brodowski was born 3/16/1916 and died 12/11/1998. He lived in Vassar, Tuscola, Michigan and is buried in Riverside Cemetery in Vassar. I’ll see what else I can find on him for you. I’m sure he has family in Vassar and that would be a great family heirloom if you would be willing to sell it or part with it. Enjoy your channel buddy!

Hey Kyle, this is "sass safrass" fellow rock lover and creek walker. Do believe the funnel looking dodad is from an old tin gas can. The pour spout. My pap was born in 1913 and had a bunch in the garage when I was growing up. Hope u had fun. I love it up there in the u.p. maybe one day u can visit the gitchee gumee agate museum in st Maris, and talk to the lady about the old copper mines. She knows some ppl that have claims out there. And the old mines always have interesting old bottles lying about and dumped. Not to mention the malachite azurite and other secondary minerals in those old mines. Good luck with everything!

Love it when you two are hunting in the river! Great finds. Creepy dolls/ doll parts follow you everywhere Kyle. Thanks for sharing. Absolute positive vibes.

Battery, not to be in water! Super video, great music background with proper volume, thanks!❤

I live in FL, love yalls content. Keep up the great work. I have potentially an Indian relic sight behind the vast property behind my house. There are mounds, I respect and stay away from the mounds but know they’re there. I will never disturb or disrespect them. You are always very respectful. Keep up the great work sir.

You take us on the best adventures! I truly enjoyed this one, watching the bottles underwater was a unique perspective. I saw the pinned comment about Mr. Brodowski...that is super cool! Have a wonderful week Kyle! Thanks again for a very enjoyable video!

At 4:53 that's an old car battery.

Hi Kyle, I love learning from you, especially about fossils. But I gotta tell you, no matter how clear Michigan's waters may look, You couldn't get me to stick my face in it. I suppose that goes for any unknown body of water. To many pollutants where dumped into so many of Michigans waters during the 1960s and 1970s. I am glad to see your wearing a wet suit and gloves though. I walk rivers in my own state but with waterproof waders, gloves to protect from getting cut, and use a grabber to pick up items. I detect and collect. Well, I pretty much take anything I am able to lift up out of the water, especially if it is a known swimming spot. Glad to see you found so many cool finds. My favorite is the green bottle. Keep on keeping man!

Lots of cool bottles, Kyle, but the sign is a dandy. Youre probably right about it being one of a kind!❤

Thanks for sharing the adventure, sir. Really cool sign. I know those can be really collectible. Especially if they can be linked to known historical events. Pretty sweet!

I always love what you find everywhere you go. You got some awesome finds as you always do. Loved the video. Yes, go back and do some more hunting there. See what else you can find.

Great finds! Love the sign and history about it!

Nice bottles Kyle have a great summer 👍❤️🗝️🇺🇸 Thanks for sharing 👍♥️🗝️🇺🇸

7:00 a Lamprey, the fish equivalent of a giant leech! 😂

Those were all some really cool finds! That aign you dound was awesome and then the article that your friend found that mentions that specific body shop in it, is just wild! I would love to see a follow up about the sign and to see it after you got it cleaned up a bit! Just really cool stuff and its awesome the things you find in these creeks and rivers! Thanks Kyle! And i love the new album! Its awesome!

Great day Kyle! Fun in the river.

I live in west Mich. I'd give my left foot to have guys like you to hang with around my area. I love creek and river hunting.

About 11:34, the rubber tube goes to the inside of a stainless milker from a dairy farm. About early 60’s to mid 70’s. They had to be cleaned twice a day after milking cows. I never seen one used as an oil funnel because oil eats rubber as someone suggested before.

Nice find

Reminded me of a firehose nozzle.

michigander here and I just have to say that this looks like it could take place just across the road from me. Now I want to go see if anything is in the creek/river near me.

the tube like piece you found. . . . .its one of the milking cups from the milkers used to milk cows. When they hook up a milker to a cow with a special belt in which the milkers are suspended, they hook up the suction hose that the compressor is sucking air. And they put a cows teat into each milking cup. There's usually only 4, one for each teat. The suction in the cups gentley sucks the milk from the teats. It takes about an hour+ when the udder is empty. As the teats are milked, they get smaller in length and will fall off the teat. They take the milker tank off the cow, pour it into a filtered milk can, and the compressor then sucks all that milk and puts it into the big milk cooler. My dad milked cows with his brother and dad twice a day. I forget how much milk the milker tanks hold. Depends on the cows udder size and breed, one milking can produce about 20-30 gallons. I think the milkers hold 40 gal. I don't know if dairies still use this system or not for a small operation. But to get top dollar for the milk, and qualify for Grade A milk, dairies had to convert to a newer system, still uses the milking cups, but there's no milking tank, the milk goes straight from the cow to the big cooler.

5:57 I thought that was a bayonet at first 😂

They used to use old batteries for small boat anchors, which is why it still had a cable on one post.

It wouldn't be a Wild Kyle video without finding a doll part in a river or creek. 😂

Have you come up my way to the Keweenaw treasure hunting? So awesome to find things
