Just had a great trip with Mike (Gr8finds) on the river looking for relics. All was fine until the end, and of course, some mini-diaster had to strike. No worries... we are all fixed up and ready for the next one! Check out Mike here: www.youtube.com/@gr8finds196/videos
See if there isn't a different scoop for your impeller on the market with more deflector blades. If not... you should consider ordering a custom one with thinner blades, but more of them. Shouldn't affect performance for your purposes, but scooping rocks should happen less if at all.
Aloha Chigg, Bullets and buttons in a river of tears, lost by men tryin' to calm their fears, firing and screaming as they clawed their way on what would become their very last day.
I've been away for a while (rotten WiFi) but it sure is nice to be back! Missed you, 'Chigg! I wear your hat all the time and get lots of compliments on it. 😁 Nice finds today! Very cool; I love the buttons... I've been away too long. Very happy to be back to find you well and doing things you love. All the best, 'Chigg... Nice to be alive. 😊
I’ve been watching for years now although not religiously. You were the first TH-cam channel that I watched regularly. You are great my friend. You are somewhere between full of crap and crazy. You go to a lot of trouble to find the history behind your finds and provide an insight into American history that my lackluster history teacher left behind or out. The Hoover Boys do some great water hunting as well. They’re just in the right (righter) area. Thanks so much for bringing your own style to TH-cam. I’ve always enjoyed your content brother. I was paralyzed 3 years ago and for a few years before that I was in bed a lot. That’s why I found you to begin with. I’m using a walker now and it looks like I might get my Deus back from my nephew. Thanks for all the hours of videos my friend.
Such a beautiful area. Nothing like being in Maine, but we sure do love you Chigg. Give Lindsey a hug from all of your friends and chigg-family in Maine Keep the videos coming.
Adrenaline rush, when you started up the boat and headed down river. I was reminded of when I was 13, home alone on another river, and without permission took my parent’s boat for a ride up river. Turned around before I got to the ferry. But should’ve turned around long before that because the ferryman reported me to my parents.😢 Thanks for the adrenaline rush. Love your videos.
I really enjoy your water hunts Chigg. Heading past your stomping grounds this month past Frederick and Hagerstown to see family out near Oakland Md. Always enjoy your knowledge and finds. Take care. 👍👌
Chigg..inalways hate to bug ya cause if you dnt know me my messages seem dumb. But I jst respect ya and enjoy the enthusiasm on my rainy days...❤you've helped me alot..we are who we are around or listen to..and you've helped me row up non joke
Thank's Beau I've passed my test EPA CERTIFIED Universal HVAC waiting to get hired I've enjoyed the video really epic bugs 🐛 on the raccoon glad we didn't smell it 😢 !!!; )
Great ride on the river. Nice to see you and Mike hanging out, he is a great guy. Too bad about the boat, but at least you were close to the landing. Hope to see more with you two. 👍👏😀
Hi Beau Hi Mike🙋 Loved the patch of finds, sure a lot of iron☺️ Those buttons are phenominal! Even though it was fake, it was so cool that Mike even spotted that gun💯 And dang rocks😂 Have a great weekend guys🤙 #chiggsarmy
Lots of people don't even bother with the like button after TH-cam took away the dislike. There's not much meaning in using that broken feature anymore. I was watching a few of the statistics channels here in YT and they've pretty much all observed a near shear drop on the like/dislike button use. Scummy of YT to remove that feature just so a few politicians and corporations get to not feel like sh!t when we call them, and with the new CEO... it's bound to get even worse, as the fellow is a consummate A-grade a$$hole.
Great hunt and explore Chiggs ! You guys found some awesome relics. The River Rat is such a great craft to run around in too. Glad to hear your all fixed up for your next adventure. Best wishes to you and yours from Northern Ontario !
That rock that made your pin pointer go off was likely black granite. I found one similar and had a geologist take a look. Black granite contains copper . Usually rocks like that are ballast from a ship .
Good to see ya out in the river Chigg. You ever detect the new river in Ashe County NC? I'm about 6 miles from the new river where Daniel Boone frequented.
I couldn't help but think that a Civil War soldier died right there where you found those buttons. But you did say they were also camped in the area as well. 👍
Regarding the bad smell I wonder what is the worst thing Chig has found on his travels. He has prolly said it on another video but I must have forgotten.
1:53 Big black snake directly in front of his feet, you can see the tail dissapear into the murk as he pans over. I watched it many times to see if i was seeing things, and im really sure.
I mean (on the eagle button) there's bigger chances of finding a gold bulion than finding those, considering that the only conditions by which a button would end up are: death, failure (of the thread), or discard Death, even if there's 20 people in one area, they'd be recuperated and buried, so of those maybe 5~8 buttons would fall, if those. Failure (of the thread), that's even less, because you'd have what, maybe 1 failure in 30 jackets? Discard (for luck, for hate etc), and that's even less. So buttons (in one area) are incredibly lucky finds.
Chig, got any suggestions for a spot or two in maryland where I could take my canoe and easily drop it in and paddle around without much current and preferably clean water to freshen up and do some artifact hunting? I'm coming from Austin where I had good clean creek and river access for fossils, and I ended up spending most of my summers refreshing in the rivers. Here in Maryland I'm often foiled by lack of access, pollution, or currents out to the bay. I'm looking for those idealic, relaxing spots where I don't have to worry about getting dragged out, or wandering into private property to get in there.
Thanks for the video and finding all the relics with the history reveals itself. Did you get the GPS coordinates of Kenny Veach? Three days back on your video of him and let me know.
Woah... that's quite a ride down river to just find some treasures. Hey now Chigg, that pistol was a *"real gun,"* -a real toy gun that is. 🤣 In all honesty... using the word *authentic weapon* would be a more appropriate or fitting word to classify a true handgun instead of *real,* since anything that a person can put their hands on consists of substance and is therefore real in the sense that it exists. IMHO that is. Hey... at least you found some neat items. I wonder if maybe going further downstream next time would produce a better slew of finds. 🤔

I was wondering when we'd see the rat again,,love the adventure
Aqua you have a red nek brotha
Gee willikers Chigg. I love beavers dude..😮

Thanks Beau.
Finally an oldschool chig vid
Beautiful day, jetboat ride, a few nice bullets, and It's always nice to see Mike. Another river adventure enjoyed. Thanks, Beau.

Glad to hear you are doing better. Hope to see you out there one day!
@@aquachigger Definitely more toward the crazy side after watching a few of your caving videos.
Hey Chigg and your buddy I’m glad to see a river video
Hi Randle.
I love watching his videos and the civil war relics he finds
Great to see another bud mate , keep them coming 👍
Greetings from Latvia! Been watching your river videos since 100k subsribers!
Thanks for taking Mike with you Beau. He's good people. Cool finds Beau. Deej💜
Thank you for that Deej.

Good hunt guys ! I love the two seater Jet Boat ...
Thank you for taking us along on another great adventure always looking forward to seeing another great video 👍
Awesome hunt man!! I love the button. I finally got my dream button a few weeks ago. It's a South Carolina militia button!
Happy day! It is now officially summer! You made my day sir! Thank you!
Sweet!!! Thank you.
Always a good watch, Chigg 👊⛏!!!!
Such a beautiful area. Nothing like being in Maine, but we sure do love you Chigg. Give Lindsey a hug from all of your friends and chigg-family in Maine

The river is very relaxing....and cool.

@ 8:53 I thought I saw a padlock when you put the GoPro underwater.
Great video! Thanks.
Man I love that boat
Heckyeah I luv the drama
Great ride on the river. Nice to see you and Mike hanging out, he is a great guy. Too bad about the boat, but at least you were close to the landing. Hope to see more with you two. 👍👏😀
Gotta get the rat fixed soon, sir!😎🇺🇸 Met you at Digstock, would love a hat

Hey Beau,

-----> "Can you see it!" >{{{}'> ~~
~- ROCK ON! 🎸🎵🎶
Thata boy chigg
I'd like to see more adventures out west in the high desert Chigg.
Next fall for sure.
Iam relieved it was a minor disaster! Hope you get the boat's motor sorted out!
That rock that made your pin pointer go off was likely black granite. I found one similar and had a geologist take a look. Black granite contains copper . Usually rocks like that are ballast from a ship .
Good evening from Southeast South Dakota
I’d love to float that river!
I used to religious watch your videos years ago! So happy I accidentally found your channel again😁
Do you still have the sunglass fence?
river rat is where its at man!

He is always worried that the bones he finds are hoooman
Dam rocks
Aquachigger no rabid critters or oregano lol but jokes aside fantastic content 👍🇬🇧🦊🐾🇺🇲
Thanks
@@aquachigger no kind regards to your missus keep up great content 👍🇬🇧🦊🐾🇺🇲
Tbat rock has silver and gold coins inside of it. Pecan and apple pies too
12:15 .......so far... Chigg the eternal optimist.😁😁
You have the best luck!! Haha
Man I’d like to go on a detecting trip like that I’m getting a detector soon
First again. Yes!!!!
1:53 Big black snake directly in front of his feet, you can see the tail dissapear into the murk as he pans over. I watched it many times to see if i was seeing things, and im really sure.
Awesome video. I hope it doesn’t cost you to much to get your boat fixed.
Sorry, chigg I haven't been on TH-cam very much. I have to catch up on your videos.
I hope they still interest you.
@@aquachigger Of course that you do
I mean (on the eagle button) there's bigger chances of finding a gold bulion than finding those, considering that the only conditions by which a button would end up are:
death, failure (of the thread), or discard
Death, even if there's 20 people in one area, they'd be recuperated and buried, so of those maybe 5~8 buttons would fall, if those.
Failure (of the thread), that's even less, because you'd have what, maybe 1 failure in 30 jackets?
Discard (for luck, for hate etc), and that's even less.
So buttons (in one area) are incredibly lucky finds.
13:16 I’m guessing the scratches on the log might be sun bathing turtles 🐢
That could be for sure.
I would be afraid of hitting a rock or log at that speeed
Chig, got any suggestions for a spot or two in maryland where I could take my canoe and easily drop it in and paddle around without much current and preferably clean water to freshen up and do some artifact hunting? I'm coming from Austin where I had good clean creek and river access for fossils, and I ended up spending most of my summers refreshing in the rivers. Here in Maryland I'm often foiled by lack of access, pollution, or currents out to the bay. I'm looking for those idealic, relaxing spots where I don't have to worry about getting dragged out, or wandering into private property to get in there.

Howdy.
Thanks for the video and finding all the relics with the history reveals itself.
Did you get the GPS coordinates of Kenny Veach?
Three days back on your video of him and let me know.
GPS coordinates? I don't follow what you're asking.
😊😊😊😊😊
What are the possibilities of an entire jacket with the owners remains?
Hi Chigg, just wondering if you would sell those old tyme bullet heads? If not no worries still love your channel
I suppose with company along the Hunley would have been a bit cramped so you trotted out the Virginia.
You may need to get a boat with a "long tail shallow water motor"
Little fish high tails it at 1:54. I guess he's camera shy?
👍☀️🌳🌳🌳🌳
👍👍👍
Woah... that's quite a ride down river to just find some treasures.
Hey now Chigg, that pistol was a *"real gun,"* -a real toy gun that is. 🤣 In all honesty... using the word *authentic weapon* would be a more appropriate or fitting word to classify a true handgun instead of *real,* since anything that a person can put their hands on consists of substance and is therefore real in the sense that it exists. IMHO that is.
Hey... at least you found some neat items. I wonder if maybe going further downstream next time would produce a better slew of finds. 🤔
Always wonder what the bullets would say if they could talk.
Union soldier perhaps felled there on the spot, Chigg?
Very possible.
12:10 Could be a small treasure safe. Crack it open to expose TREASURE 🎉 Maybe.
You all know aquachigger; Riverboat gambler, uranium Smuggler, and Black Dahlia murder suspect.
8:54 i about drowned… didn’t remind me to hold my breath…. 👊🏻
Sorry... I forgot.
Hey there - can anyone tell me why Chigg's hats are not in his store. Are they a speciality item or something similar...
I would like to have met the man who lost his military jacket. That is, before the war and I hope he survived the battle.
What was that in the water @1:54??
1:53 something in the water
What about the cannonball?
Hey chigg at the 1:54 mark there is something in the water that disappears almost looked like an eel
Dang, you're right. It may have been..... either that or a giant leech!
😀
At 1:55 was that a snake? Or a fish or what was that
