@@GREEKEXPLORERS Thanks but I don't know about amazing...but I'll take your word for it 😉. I intend to do this video with a much better demonstration and production, but I realized they were on sale when sharing the link to Nic of City Rockhounding. That said, I had to get this out before the sale was over. I'll do s proper video hopefully soon.

Fred, love your PSAs! One of the benefits of being an aquatic biologist was that my employer allowed me to keep my prescription dive mask and wet suits when I retired. We used them to survey for and find freshwater mussels, a group of critically endangered animals that I can geek out on for hours. Trust me on that 😅. Believe it or not the buggers hide in the gravel and cobble to hide from predators. So they look like rocks. So I'm excellent at finding rocks underwater cause I'm really good at mistaking them for mussels 😅. I know you're wondering why they let me keep the wetsuits. I mean, they're like expensive underwear, you can clean and sanitize them, but do you really want to wear someone else's heavily used underwear? And the stories about ways to warm up yourself in a wetsuit are true. Just saying.
@@RickSmith-kp3sy Cool work, and you can geek out with me anytime. I know, my friend Mike surfs and he warned me about buying used wet suits. The visual image he left me with after explaining how people wear them, definitely makes me understand the underwear concept and why to buy new. I don't want my boys playing in the same pool as someone else's were 🤣.
@@JnVrockhounding Yeah, it turns out that the videos we've watched so far, it's never said where to get one. My wife just told me she had to track it down herself. Well, we share, so here's the info. I sent a link to Nic of City Rockhounding as a suggestion, and realized they were on sale, so I spit out this half @ss video to let our community know. There will be a better demonstration video coming later. Thanks
@@Betty-RockBetty Cool, well time is now to grab one. I understand, I actually forget to bring it with me sometimes. I will admit to it being somewhat cumbersome, but I have a solution for that if I can turn my invention into an actual product someday. Until then, this is a great option.
@@Mike-br8vb Dude, thanks. It's like I know you, but I don't. I love seeing your name here. I've seen your comments on other videos for quite a while now, especially Andrew's shorts when he was spitting those out. I think I may have even commented on your comment. It's an honor to have you bro. Thanks for the comment.
Of course, I do understand that. I mentioned it wasn't my idea and that agatedad uses one. The point was only to tell my community, which I do understand is the same community as those guys and I've only got a sliver of theirs, but my wife didn't see the video where agatedad said where to find them. She found one for me awhile ago before I was doing TH-cam. I was talking to another creator and he hadn't heard of using one so I sent a link to him. While doing that I realized they were half price of you bought them at Michaels so I did a quick vid. No harm no foul but apparently some other creators said they hadn't known where to get one and/or forgot about the idea of using one. Just spitting the idea out there just in case, and for some it was needed. If I do a further demo, it will only be talking it up while I'm using it to hound anyway. Thanks for saying something though. Again, you just never know if you have knowledge that someone else needs. Had I not known about the other guys using them and came off like it was my thing, then I could feel foolish. You could have saved me my guy. Thanks. Take care. Fred
Amazing video!! Thanks for sharing!!

@@just-one-more-rock It was fine and I really mean it and I can't wait to see the next video!! Good luck and take care!!
I'm like Betty, I keep forgetting about it! The idea for your phone is great too!! Thanks Fred ☺️

@just-one-more-rock Lol, cue the little girl in Caddyshack screaming it's a doody!

Gonna have to get one. Didn’t know where Taylor got his. Thanks Fred. Great info for a very useful tool.

Love it! I’ve seen Agate Dad do this, but I haven’t tried it yet, I keep forgetting!

Awesome, brother!

Now subbed!
👊
Fantastic my guy. I hope you enjoy what I have to offer.
I'm pretty sure everyone has seen agate dad or Michigan rocks where they have already shown us what to use.
