Heard from Govinn.... said he is planning to hit some SC creeks and wants to get up with Phil and do another dive when it warms up. My take on Govinn was that he will hunt sharks teeth until the cows come home. There ain't no quit in that boy

Most all of these are from Venice. A few of the "chunks" or partials are from Peace river. But anything good was a Venice tooth.

Holy cow RC, that's what I call one GIGANTIC HAUL. Very nice collection indeed. How long have you been collecting? Is there any truth to the claim that the teeth (and I have found a few there) are found at 20 feet deep? I read one account that claimed if you go deeper, you will be wasting your time. Are you hitting the same places the fossil boats hit? or are you going southwards? Thanks for posting. Great collection!
ps: The Cypress Gardens fossil show is 2 weeks from yesterday. If you like the Grammys, they are one week from today

Alright Friends as Lee said a couple of days ago the Cypress Gardens Fossil Show is Feb. 16th from 10:00am to 4:00pm. This is a good show that you don't want to miss. My Son and Myself will have the best of our collection of 25 plus years on display. We will have on DarkWaterDivers T-shirts so do come by and say Hello. Hope to see you there....Joe

hunting sharks teeth is pretty much all about luck for me personally. some guys find more than others and seem to be better at it than others, and I attribute that to them "wanting it" more. i have developed a sense for where fossils will be found, and it is based on what one learns over the years. its funny that most of the time i come up empty handed but then on the next dive i will find an excellent 4" Meg and pristine 7" Mastodon tooth. It seems the thing that works best for me is persistence. dive on!
