I'm glad you are still finding some Ammonites. If you ever get any rain, perhaps go out when everything is still wet as the rain might 'light up' the fossils making them easier to see in those fields of white dried rocks, it works when agate hunting as the water enhances the colors and details making them a bit easier to spot.
I'm envious of your finds. Our creeks here in western NY are drying up so my granddaughter and I have been searching the tons of rocks. Of course there are no ammonites in this area, but we've found some decent small fossils. Thanks for taking us with you on your hunts. Be careful and safe.
That one with the whole in it is incredible! I also love that little shell. It’s amazing that these creatures were once alive! Love your videos! Still hope you get rain soon!🌸
As I sit here in Southern California I wish I lived where you lived and could hunt for those things every day. Well frankly hunt for anything I love looking for things. I so enjoyed watching you find all those amazing treasures. Thank you so much for doing what you do I totally appreciate it and enjoy watching your work. Thank you thank you
That was a great premier! Thanks for taking my advice on doing it that way. I think everyone enjoyed it. Lots of little ammonites! too cute! I love it! Awesome!
Some of those long round fossils could be burrow holes that was fossilised over time as was found in South Africa . Sand fills up the burrow holes and then fossilises over time.
What an adventure we’re having so many ammonites. It is an incredible day you’ve had good luck today. I hope the rest of your day goes as well, bless you.
I am so jealous of your special place. I would love to go there, but I would be looking for more than ammonites, like those beautiful limb casts you have found. And of course petrified wood in general.
Awesome day. I'm really liking the variety of fossils too. Thanks for the info too. It happened to me. They used your picture and logo, but I, knew something was off because he had no followers. Happy Hunting and Happy Safety Meetings
Yes you must find many beautiful things there I love what you do. Thank you for showing these beautiful fossils and things. I wish I could touch one. Thank you again.
You took us on another great adventure! "It's sad as heck that there crick is dryin' up" (in my West Virginian voice).. I kept thinking the lighter weight ammonites would be easier to find and laying on top, I was wrong!! When it was hot as h*// with high water at 'The Creek,' most of the big or small ones I saw you find here were never so obvious nor so easy to retrieve! I know you're not an archeologist, but...Keep Diggin' DMI... The best is yet to come!! Safe travels Buddy!!
During the Cretaceous period late in the Mesozoic era North America's topography was affected by high sea levels and little to no polar ice. The epeiric sea known as the Western Interior seaway intruded into the middle of the continent. An equally relevant question would be : Why is limestone the dominant bedrock there? That's why ammonites, grypheae bivalves ("the devil's toenails") and mosasaur teeth are common. The Balcones fault line which I35 traces the path of essentially, delineates an unmistakable trend in Texas bedrock ages. On the east side, bedrock and sedimentary formations go Cretaceous -> Cenozoic -> Quaternary. And on the west side Cretaceous-> Pennsylvanian (Jacksboro)-> Permian (Seymour/Abilene). The only other Mesozoic rocks are a ring of Triassic outcrops that bracket the Caprock/Amarillo area into New Mexico. Rocks from the intervening Jurassic period are absent from Texas both as outcrops and buried formations. It appears that at this time "Texas" geography was dominated by erosion rather than deposition For a demonstration of the different types of paleoenvironments that dominated Cretaceous Texas vs Triassic Texas here's some footage I took from just outside the city of Dickens. th-cam.com/video/Q_pLx3pNpBM/w-d-xo.html
Wow!!! You got a great haul in this video. The ammonite with the hole in it was incredible and call me crazy but the brachipods you've been finding are super cool, especially the really nice 3D one you found a couple of videos back. Not gonna lie, probably the most awesome fossil was the fish. 👍👍
My daughter and I just stumbled upon your channel today (thanks algorithm 🤣) we are also in North Texas and are inspired to get out there and begin exploring. We would love to be chosen to receive one of your amazing ammonite finds 😁
It would be interesting to delineate an area about 3' x 3' and see how many fossils you'd pull out ...because I swear I see other ones when you're going in for the "pick up"
This was a great video! Man that water is shallow andngetting even worse! And to think there used to be an ocean there! I love the little ammonites with the holes in them!
Damn I saw a lot of stuff as you were panning the gravel that I would love for my collection. Please show your personal collection some time. I live up in the redwoods in northern California, this truly is a bad drought. Good luck with all your treasure adventures my YT friend. Subscribed, Randy
I live in CALIFORNIA if you're ever visiting - I'm a big believer in frequent 'safety meetings" and I also know some premier locations... 😉 👏 😀 Thanks Dude - love and appreciate the hard work
This is only the 3rd time I've watched one of your videos. I keep telling myself I need to go research what ammonites are and all that goes with them but I STILL haven't done that.

Record low water makes for great hunting, but it sure is concerning. Love the one with the hole in the middle.
Unreal how many ammonites are being exposed! Thanks for sharing!
What a fantastic video. So amazing what has been hidden beneath the creek for all this time.

Seriously right? I'm up here in Northern California doing the same thing 😛
That was a great premier! Thanks for taking my advice on doing it that way. I think everyone enjoyed it. Lots of little ammonites! too cute! I love it! Awesome!
I love watching your videos, it's nice to know another person who has a passion to go out and find minerals, fossils, and gems/gold.
Thanks!
It’s nice to see someone honest! How someone can screw someone over a Damn rock that’s low as a snakes belly. I like your work !
You find so many amazing things!! I love watching your channel :).
Those small ammonites are cool great adventure thanks for sharing see you on the next one👍🏼👊🏼
Some of those long round fossils could be burrow holes that was fossilised over time as was found in South Africa . Sand fills up the burrow holes and then fossilises over time.
It definitely doesn't mean meteorite for sure,
it can also have Ferris metal in it like iron
What amazing finds! It’s incredible to see such an abundance, must have been part of a sea bed with several layers of death plates now!
Gracias por tomarte el tiempo para hacer y compartirnos estos maravillosos videos !!!
great video as usual! shocked at how many small ammonites you found this time, im used to seeing your typical truck tire sized finds lol.
I enjoy your videos of fossi hunts. Please keep it up!
Love watching what you find on ammonite creek watch every day or a least look for videos every day.
Thanks for taking us with! Enjoy fossil hunting.
It is amazing how many you are able to find. I love the content
What an adventure we’re having so many ammonites. It is an incredible day you’ve had good luck today. I hope the rest of your day goes as well, bless you.
I think it's amazing you collect the "hearts" for your mom. Enjoyed your video. Loved the Ammonites!
Well done! love those ammonites!!! so much history!
Felicidades!! Es un video increíble, con hallazgos increíbles!! Qué lugares tan bonitos y lleno de hermosas amonitas!!! Saludos desde Merida Yucatan
Love your enthusiasm, fun to watch!
I am so jealous of your special place. I would love to go there, but I would be looking for more than ammonites, like those beautiful limb casts you have found. And of course petrified wood in general.
Loved the live chat also! Great vid
You keep hunting for those fossils I will keep watching you find them. Some wicked nice finds without doubt.
Amazing finds. Had no clue about these until I saw your videos. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the trip! You could call the bananas bananammonites😆
Another great day! Thanks, as always, for sharing! ❤️
As always enjoyed watching thanks for sharing 👍
Such a safe fossil hunter! Bravo!

Love watching you on your discovering journeys. Really exciting. Hope you feel well. 💙🇬🇧
Glad I came across your channel ! Love all of the ammonites that you find 😊😊
Yes you must find many beautiful things there I love what you do. Thank you for showing these beautiful fossils and things. I wish I could touch one. Thank you again.
Wow! Excited to see the ammonites! And I like your safety meetings. I think I need one about now.😉
That's quite a haul. I especially like the one with the hole. Very unique.
I collect ammonites also, you are finding good ones. I would like to have a huge Arkansas Crystal though. I have a crystal river stone.
Great trip! The ammonites with holes are so cool!
Awsome video, I especially liked the safety meetings.
Love the ammonites can't stop watching I'm addicted

Wow wish I was in Texas to walk this creek, congratulations on your finds and thanks for sharing!
Another amazing adventure! What a great day you had.
I would love to have one of these, but I do not have Facebook. But love your channel.

Great adventure! Thanks for sharing!
Great video! Really liked those baby Ammonites
keep posting more
I really enjoy these vids
Awesome video with some amazing fossils. Take care and thank you for sharing 👍👏💖
Love this! Shoutout from Windsor Ontario Canada
So glad you decided to check it with a magnet
My gosh you found some beautiful stuff. Those ammoninites are awesome. I love 💘the small ones. I guess the one under water was huge.
Wow!!! You got a great haul in this video. The ammonite with the hole in it was incredible and call me crazy but the brachipods you've been finding are super cool, especially the really nice 3D one you found a couple of videos back. Not gonna lie, probably the most awesome fossil was the fish. 👍👍
Love watching your videos! Would love to see that creek ❤️
My daughter and I just stumbled upon your channel today (thanks algorithm 🤣) we are also in North Texas and are inspired to get out there and begin exploring. We would love to be chosen to receive one of your amazing ammonite finds 😁
It's not just the creek, the entire formation of bedrock for miles and miles each direction.
Awesome finds, unbelievable what you can find out there.
Always did enjoy exploring rivers and creeks.
What a cool place! So many fossils!
Such A Great Place,,,, Love These Fossils,,,, 🙌🏾 👍
great video. love them ammonites. hope you get some rain. we are dry in iowa too
Beautiful location and beautiful pieces.
Cool video! Thanks for sharing it!
I love ammonites! One time, I went to that creek and found about 30 complete ammonites!
It would be interesting to delineate an area about 3' x 3' and see how many fossils you'd pull out ...because I swear I see other ones when you're going in for the "pick up"
Super cool! 1st time viewer 👍
This was a great video! Man that water is shallow andngetting even worse! And to think there used to be an ocean there! I love the little ammonites with the holes in them!

Thanks Dude - love and appreciate the hard work
Wow, you found some really beautiful ones!
Picks up osage orange "oh hey an apple" lmao
Great finds today!
Great hunt. Love your videos
This is only the 3rd time I've watched one of your videos. I keep telling myself I need to go research what ammonites are and all that goes with them but I STILL haven't done that.
Nice finds! It looks like the bigger amenities are close to the source and the smaller ones are further down....will they get smaller?
Love the content; you've got me excited about rocks lol
I hope thing are going well for you!??? I see you have a new boat?? It looks new.!
Id like to visit and go on a tour with you. I live in southern Texas and am willing to drive up for a few days.
Wow - you found a lot of cool stuff. Is this the last kayak trip before it broke?
I have a lot of safety meetings on my fossil hunts too😂💨
You are amazing man I love everything about you and your videos.
Oh this is wonderful! Love those ammonites.
I wish i was able to find some wonderful ammonites like you do. not sure we have them in australia. great job.
finding fossils is such a thrill!
Interesting. What do you do with them, do you clean and polish them. If so, where can we see those. Would be lovely to see.
Lovely haul. 😍
I like those small ammonites.
I know I want one
Such awesome finds. So cool 😎
What you are calling sand dollars are urchins or heart urchins. Nice finds. Keep on keeping on 👍😎👍
Keep it up ..love to watch
So cool! I love fossil hunting.
Killer video! Keep up the good work!
glad you found a Mom heart but I noticed a couple you didn't see 😉 loved the baby ammonites
