I enjoyed your Holden Beach Walk. We are staying in the tiny house by the pier in a couple of weeks. Are you shelling near the pier? Were there many people shelling in the dark? Thanks

Oh man, what an awesome episode - one of your best, and honestly, in my opinion one of the best shelling features currently on KZbin. This is TRULY what enthusiast shelling is all about... the excitement here is palpable! 🐚🐚 I've only been shelling at this place twice, and while I found some great stuff, I have to say I am jealous of your Giant Eastern Murex finds! Ironically, I have only ever found 1, or 2 very worn specimens in the Palm Beach/Juno area of Florida. I also really appreciate all of the beautiful Florida Fighting Conchs - it's so amazing to see them in abundance at the northern end of their range. Thanks for this episode, dude!
@shellstories 2 күн бұрын
I really couldn't believe how good the shelling was that day! By far one of my best outings ever. I've never found such pristine Giant Eastern Murexes before so it was super exciting, and I never knew there were that many Fighting conchs out that way too. Really cool to be able to see this in areas that aren't that as well documented in terms of species abundance/diversity. Thank you so much for watching shell friend!

This video truly amazed me. I can't believe the great shells you found! Remind me when this was. You know I told you I keep trying to get to Holden but things keep getting in the way so now it's going to be winter shelling there for me like Jan-Feb . That's usually the best time but so cold. I hope I have half the luck you did on this trip. Loved seeing all your amazing finds of eastern murex, large shark eyes, large bittersweets and wow those Lions paws!!. So beautiful!!! Thanks again for sharing and I agree with others, your vids just aren't long enough.
@shellstories 2 күн бұрын
This was in winter, so it should be prime shelling season for you. Plus in today's climate, highs in the 60s and 70s along the NC coastline aren't so rare anymore. I hope you find a ton of awesome stuff whenever you get to go! I couldn't believe how good that day was for the murexes. It's already difficult enough to find one mostly intact giant murex. Shelling can be so unpredictable! Thank you so much for watching :)

Cones in Florida aren't lethal to humans, plus they're ultra rare to find on the beach, they live further out from shore. Even if you were to find a live one it will not attack you, but it's definitely something you need to be aware of.
