New 6.92" Megalodon Tooth

[naui 15694]

Do you have any links talking about how to get started in finding them? Since I started diving a few years ago I have really wanted to find one. Not the biggest one... just a nice one!

EDIT: Whoops, I see you have a link in your sig. Thanks in advance.

Also Matt, a few years ago Mark Renz wrote a book called "Hunting The Hunter" Mark asked me to write about diving for Meg teeth. If you get the book and go to the SC section you will see where I wrote how I find spots to dive for teeth and a section on diving hazards related to Meg hunting. It really is a good book.

Thanks!

Matt,
I added the text of the sections that I wrote here:

Megateeth.com Museum quality Megalodon teeth and fossil shark teeth

This works for me near Savannah but in other areas it could be completely different.

That is very kind, thanks a million!

Really nice find!!!!! I'm planning a trip soon and I'm torn between the Cooper and a North Carolina coast dive. Never thought much about the Savannah... How far inland on the river are you hunting?

 

[naui 15694]

Pretty close to the coast. The problem is the fast tides and zero vis. Also there are no charters around here.

Nothing beats viz when you cant see your guages! HAAA Been there done that. I just love hearing the Gulf Divers talk about te viz sucked you can only see 20 feet! They would freak out in places Ive been. Best of all you cant tell if its a log or a gator that bumps your head! chances are slim for issues of food chain conflict but currents, logs, limbs, line and ledges are not good but can only be training from each dive you go on. You just cant panic.

I cant wait to get up there and dive some dark water for teeth or whatever. If you ever need someone let me know a few days ahead so I can get ll my gear juiced up! Im only like 8-9 hours away!! LOL HAAAA


My best find....

Nice find!!! I always said the same thing about diving in the Gulf. I could not understand why they needed so much visibility. Then I dove there and saw all the spiny urchins. Diving blind there would tear you up. Plus there is so much growth on everything that you would never feel a meg tooth like we do here. They know what they are talking about. I really feel for them down there with that oil spill.
