  • @MichiganRocks
    @MichiganRocks 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The scoopy cam was a great idea! After watching you struggle to pick up a rock, I'm kind of glad I didn't buy one of those scoopers. My spoon on a stick is a little easier to operate. I think it helps that the spoon is sort of pointy. I usually attack the rocks with the end of the spoon rather than coming at it from the side like you do. The downside of my rock scoop is that the spoon bends if I pick up something too big. The other one I made at the same time eventually broke where I bent it.
    I don't like to correct you, but as a guy who lives in a town that was once known as the cement capital of the world because we produced more than anywhere else, I think I should tell you that your Minnesota puddingstone is concrete, not cement. The cement is the part between the aggregate that holds everything together.

    • @AgateDad
      @AgateDad  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

Still learning how to locate places to bunt with permission...have to find some first right? Hubby and I went up some of the coastal route in MN. Looming for a public access to some beaches to bunt, but don't find any..:-(

      Duluth area is or was like one of Americas best kept secret..not over crowded! Really enjoyed the area! Have to make an effort to get up that way and further ..Oh Gooseberry Falls was awesome goo, even though there wasn't much flowing thru. The visitors building is fantastic!

I just noticed something interesting at 1:33, when you brought up that beech worn a date, sitting on the handle above it was what looked like a mauve coloured rock, it looks like it is covered in dots or is it just a play of light.

    Wonderful specimens "Dad". From your home page, I can affirm there is nothing better than raising little rockhounds. I am looking forward to my grandchildren being rockheads but it will have to be their parents that teach them since grandpa is too old and unhealthy to collect any longer. A possible tip on the Gem Scoop....er.... Scoopie. Tip the handle forward just a bit. For some reason, since the leading curved edge is sharper than the sides, the rocks "stick" to it a bit easier. I'm sure the water has an effect. When I was still able to collect I used my Gem Scoop A LOT.... but being in the desert I didn't have to deal with water; just sand.

  • @stoogeslap
    @stoogeslap 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I wonder if there's a way to have a live feed from the Go Pro. That way you can keep it under for a longer period of time while watching the feed while wading. All you would need to do is insulate the Go Pro, keeping the lens clear. I bring this up because there's a lot that it hard to distinguish w/ the rippling water leaving shadows on the lake bed edges. Another thought, wonder how well one of the grabbers on a pole would work (not suggesting Scoopy retires [wouldn't put that thought in yours or {his?} head])? Just another tool in your arsenal for finding specimens (can sling it on your back for easy carrying). Another great vid. One last question, does the lake ever heat up enough to not be freezing, where you won't be worried about possible damage through cold temperatures?

    Hi, I just recently found your channel via the channel of 2 sweet ladies (mother and daughter) called the Northern Mudlurkers. They recomended your channel when they did a video about agates.
    I enjoy your channel very much!
    By the way, I wanted to highly recommend you to buy yourself a *metal detecting scoop.* The item has a long handle, and looks like a very small bucket with holes and it is made of metal. 🤔 I think it may help more with picking up the rocks, or I can be wrong.

    I found a very large agate embedded in amygdaloidal rhyolite in the Porcupine Mountains a week ago, 4 hr hike from car. It was too heavy for me to carry out so I left it for others to enjoy.

    Sweet Scoopy cam!! I love being able to see them underwater. Awesome finds, definitely some beauties. I'm sad you threw back that rock at 2:14 it looked like some beautiful jasper. I could be wrong though

    I heard the Minnesota pudding stone referred to as "Portland conglomerate" and that's nerdy enough to be funny.
