- Today we're once again shelling at Holden Beach. I get up nice an early at 4 in the morning to get first crack at the new shells that washed up, and it turns into an incredible walk as I find some pretty spectacular shells!
Oh that black and white baby’s ear was beautiful.
I've never seen one like that! Thanks for watching :)
I live in TN, I visit the FL panhandle just about every year but #1 on my bucket list SWFL. I want my own tulips, nutmegs, and conchs!
I enjoy your videos, thanks for posting!
SWFL is amazing! I've shelled there extensively and it is worth it. I'm ready to go back myself too once Sanibel/FMB recovers from the hurricane and places start to open there. Thank you for watching :)
We live in Horry Co., and over the years have taken the grandkids to the beach many times, but the best shells we ever found was 30 yrs ago when we went to Bull Island just north of Mt. Pleasant.
That's awesome! Thank you for watching :)
Those biscuits were all over the joint!!!!
I couldn't believe it!
Awesome 😊 Lions Paw is one of my Top 3 dream finds so I’m always on the lookout for one 👍👍👍🐚 I’m off to Nags Head NC soon and can’t wait to see if I find some 🐚 treasures. Thanks for sharing as a,ways 😊
Lion's paws are really elusive. They're more locally abundant in the right area, but those are few and far between. Good luck on your trip! PS if you don't find anything there, drive down to south Cape Hatteras and you'll find stuff!
south cape hatters is that Shackelford or ocracoke or cape lookout? Taking our first trip to NC, looking for different shells than Fl.
As usual I love your shelling video. My trip to Edisto last weekend was beautiful but total fog all weekend. I did find some nice shells though. I still want to make it up to Holden. I love the Lions paw, Imperial venus, amd that black &white baby ear and speckled tellons and tons of sea biscuits. SWEET finds!! Those little olives were precious too! I so enjoy your videos. Please keep them coming!!
Thank you so much! Holden is definitely worth it. I've never found a baby's ear like that, though the lion's paw was my favorite by far. I've seen so many other shelling youtubers find one and I was absolutely dying to get one myself. I have a lot of videos already filmed and ready to be edited and uploaded!
@@shellstories - Yay! Can't wait to see more!!
Love all the shells you found!! I have been shelling for years and I live in Charlotte NC and I am landlocked. I will try to get to Holden beach love biscuits. Great video!!!
Thank you so much :) It is definitely worth it and the sea biscuits are literally all over the place!
I love wat thing your videos.. another helmet find would be awesome.. love all the goodies from this adventure!!!
Oh man, a helmet at Holden would be incredible, they're so rare around there. Thank you as always for watching and commenting!
Beautiful shells 😊
Thank you :)
I use coconut oil, as i prefer them without the shine 😊
Do the Carolinas have a similar shell "season" like SWFL? I would love to get some of those sea biscuits and baby ears!
I'd say winter is also the best time for shells, early spring before tourist season starts could be good as well. I would definitely recommend a trip to Holden beach! I haven't uploaded the videos yet, but at the very end of my trip, there were shell piles that actually had hundreds of baby's ears, shark eyes, and shiny olives. Thank you so much for watching!
@@shellstories Thank you so much for the great info! It’s in my list of places I must go shelling!
Great video, thanks!
Are the sea biscuits fossilized?
Thank you, and yes they are! Millions of years old.
Is this recently at Holden? I've noticed the shelling has fallen off lately but maybe we just need to start working the night shift 😂
This is was late December, so not too long ago. Some days are just not as good as others, and getting up really early helps too. Thank you so much for watching!
You missed a bunch of sharks teeth.
I figured, but I was mostly just looking for shells. Can you tell me which time stamps? (I'm curious)
I for sure saw one 3:28 ish just before you pick up the auger off to the right you can see the "root" of the tooth
