Professional Fossil Hunter’s Ammonite Luck At Lyme Regis!

- I go on a long fossil walk to the East of Lyme Regis, in conjunction with safe tide times. The best fossils are found at low tide. I hope you find some fossils along the Jurassic Coast-at low tide. Sometimes fossil hunting turns out to be treasure hunting, it’s fun just to see the “ treasures” on the large rocks. The Jurassic Coast really does have some stunning fossils. I recommend wearing safety glasses and sturdy rubber gloves when hammering the right rocks. Remember the cliffs are dangerous and liable to fall suddenly and without warning. Keep away from the dangerous cliffs. The best fossils are washed out onto the beaches at low tide, by the sea's actions. Look out for the slippery seaweed on the ledges and rocks. I offer fossil walks along the Jurassic Coast on the following website, so feel free to take a look at the website I made, with our online fossil walks ------www.lymeregisfo... There is a fossil collecting code of conduct in place along the Jurassic Coast- #fossilhunter#fossilhunting#fossilammonites

enjoyed the video....and Trudie grins ear to ear when the sieve comes out 😁.... we've been watching the web cam and the weather has been so calm and beautiful....but not so good for washing fossils out🙄....enjoy the Mary Anning weekend....and keep watching out for those crows👍
Thanks 🙏 I’m glad your enjoying the videos 😁🎥🌀🌊
Coming to Lyme Regis tomorrow! So excited! Your videos have really inspired me. I really want to find a pyrite ammonite! I shall drop by and say hello during our stay 😊
Thank you 🙏, someone was saying they found a few iron pyrite ammonites the last days - at low tide .
I recommend if you go down into the beach form the sea wall go down as the tide is going out then walk far along the beach. Most people can’t be bothered to go to far so the close areas are picked clean. This guy goes really far along!
@@DreadEnder Thank you!
Thanks for the video, I'm glad I found your channel !! :)
Thanks 🙏 very much for your comments and watching the video
You've convinced me that sieving is worthwhile! I'll definitely be doing that when i return next year 😁
Thanks 🙏 those little green potting sieves even trap the tiny ammonites . It’s always fun to be finding at least something.
Will you be looking around the recent landslide at Charmouth?
I haven’t had a look there, after the recent large landslide at Charmouth. The cliffs are really dangerous there and liable to fall suddenly and without warning ⚠️. I will wait and see about going there when the tides are low early next week I reckon - and there is lot more of the beach that will be revealed.
Great pastime sieving,certainly had a nice handful last February 💪
Thanks 🙏 very much and even the small finds keep you going !
Спасибо .Очень интересно .Жалко что я не поискал аммониты когда путешествовал по этой части Англии.
Thanks 🙏 for watching, it’s a very interesting part of the world the Jurassic Coast. The fossil collecting can be good at low tide when you have more of the beach to look at !
Not a lot to find today but underneath the next rock could be something wonderful, you have to keep looking, keep trying and you'll be successful more often than not.
That’s very well said Mike, exactly right ! I hope people realise that fossil hunting has good days and a lot days when you should just take in the view and hope of a good fossil find underneath the next rock !
We had a week's fossiling trip a month ago to charmouth,stayed at sea down caravan park, we spent roughly seven hours a day fossiling for iron pyrite ammonites,on this occasion found three iron pyrite clam shells,which are incredibly rare in our case as we only go fossiling there twice a year plus plenty of ammonites and belemnites.
Well done sounds like you really put in a good effort and made some good fossil finds at low tide . Thanks for your comments.
Aww yeah! Charmouth is great! I wonder if we went to the same site!?!
Hi oscar,yeah we always stay at sea down caravan park because it's right on the beach,charmouth really is a beautiful place to be.
Love watching your videos, I’ve been a beach comber for as long as I can remember, mainly glass and shells to make my jewellery and pictures but more recently I’ve become interested in collecting fossils after visiting Lyme Regis a few years back. Do you hold fossil hunts for adults ?
Thanks 🙏 very much for the comments. It’s great fun finding the beach 🏖️ glass especially during the Winter months for the vibrant colours! I’m going to be doing fossil walks early next year in the best of times to be out fossil hunting . At the moment the situation is believe it or not, that the mudslides are all too dry and not really activated by the heavy rain ☔️ we get in droves in Lyme bay over certain periods of the Winter . It seems to really rain a lot around Christmas I’d say and the mudslides “melt away” as the sea washes them out . That inevitably brings more fossils onto the beaches.

@@LymeRegisFossils Thank you I’ll take a look.
Thanks 🙏
I finally got me a sieve 🙌😁
Excellent 👌 then your ready for the next time 🕰️ on the beach at low tide 😁 with the potting sieve !
Hello
I'm 14 years old, I'm from Vietnam. How can I find amazing fossils like you ?
where should go?
What I have to do?
The Jurassic Coast is a great place to look for fossils at low tide . It’s a rapidly eroding coastline and the preservation of the fossils here are very good quality. There is a fossil collecting code of conduct in operation along the Jurassic Coast. Here you have to avoid the dangerous cliffs that are liable to fall suddenly and without warning ⚠️. There are good museums around here to show you what fossils you can find and the Charmouth Heritage Centre that shows you also about how to go about fossil collecting

Thanks for your helpful tips
I hope to one day go there and go to Lyme Regis
Thank you 🙏
May I ask where you got the models from please, are they something you sell in your shop?
I got them from Mike Walley At EVERYTHING DINOSAUR 🦕 ONLINE
@@LymeRegisFossils thank you.
I wonder which is older? A bottle or an ammonite?
I will go for the ammonite 🌊🪨🌀
👏👏👏
Thanks 🙏 very much for watching
