Metal Detecting And Exploring: Thunderstorm Edition

[@lesahanners5057]

I love a good ramble with you Chigg, but even more so when you find Civil War era, and earlier, relics. This was a good hunt, awesome to see you out in your element. However, if I had seen signs in the tall grass, like that carcass drag you saw, I would have booked it out of there pronto. We have a plethora of cougars in our area, and you sure don't want to disturb one of them at its kill. We also have bears, and coyotes, none of which I would want to disturb either. You are one brave dude! I had family that served on both sides during the Civil War, so seeing the things you find near or on the old battle sites, or in the camps, really makes it all that much more real to me. When I watch your video's, it transports me to another time, and in my minds eye I see the events of yesteryear, and how those things were left behind. Thanks for making it real. Have a great day!

[@MTPatriot1787]

Excellent as always! The idea of finding a buried piece of history is always exciting, even if it isn't in the best of conditions. The real unknown history and exciting part, lies with that officer that fell somewhere around there.

[@scootiebootie2]

It’s so amazing that you can just go out and find things like that! To find bits of history is awesome!!

[@yell70]

Great video, just love watching what the Chig does best, hunting civil war relics in those cricks and rivers! Please keep that theme going. Cheers from Australia.

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Nice sleuthing. A fallen soldier drifts downstream and his uniform and gear rot away. Sounds plausible. Enjoyable hunt and narration Chig.👍

[@centralmexicodogsanctuarya4590]

Hey Agua, I really enjoy the way you present your videos with great enthusiasm and no ego bs. Y ou along with GMMD are my go to metal detecting likes to make me get out and search.I've got some very old sulphur mines with coins dating back as far as 1828, Mexican Reals. Lots of searching left to do.

[@Chasing_The_Dream]

That thumb nail photo. LOL

Muray Da Hut 🤣

You constantly think about 🐓 don't you?

[@Jadeedoll]

C Thompson more like 🍆

[@HighTideSoaps]

I was looking for this comment, convinced I couldn’t be the only one who noticed.

[@Wvnursey]

Nice little hunt and nice finds but truely layin in the grass was great!! I think I could nap there! Cheers!

[@TheThetechnician]

Cigg goes wild with the thumb nail

[@Haxzaw]

...I know right it looks like a great big throbbing....well that's as far as I go with that.

[@bucki58]

I was hoping to learn about rusty penis?

[@yahwehskid4819]

I recommend you coming back to this spot. I would be happy to find anyone of those finds ! Great vid I appreciate you didn't go all Hollywood on us after making the big time!😉😉 Keep up the great work.

[@thurin84]

if the artifacts are the remnants of one missing soldiers equipment, even though we might never know his name, or anything about him, he is now remembered after a fashion in the minds of everyone who watches this video.

[@jeffgraham48]

Great hunt. Thanks for bringing us along. Hopefully you go back there soon. I hope there's more there.

[@TheGreatPurpleFerret]

I got a major jurassic park vibe from your trek through the weeds.

[@TheGreatPurpleFerret]

@chalupa supreme Don't go in to the long grass! **

[@lucylou9417]

Wow never see turkey eggs, and that they laid so many! That was fun!

[@jimeyler4655]

Great video and I held my breath

[@thomashester739]

Awesome hunt I believe there's some good relic's in the area.

[@mattybigr]

Great finds Chigg, I was waiting for the rest of that soldier to turn up!

[@chevychase3103]

He's there somewhere God Rest his soul! Maybe his horse also!

[@mattybigr]

@@chevychase3103 I was thinking the same given the pieces of wagon after a direct hit from a shell!

[@Jadeedoll]

That thumbnail though! Heeeheehee, so cheeky!

[@micheleaustin8328]

I think so , too!! A poor soldier's things that had died fighting....😌💫

[@thebaddest2562]

eyed pick reminds me of a flash hole cleaner, one to keep the fuse hole on cannon clear or similar tool if its not for cannon. The eye is to keep it at the ready around the neck

[@VickieV1333]

Exciting finds!! Go back to that site!

[@computergrant1]

Well look what crawled out of the woodwork - - again! Grsat seeing you Beau. And best of all, out in nature along a creek. Some pretty impressive finds too. Glad I could tag along. See you next time!

[@SmallWonda]

Exciting finds - has to be MOAR there - you'd think? Keep safe in all those storms!

[@yogiddt]

Way to go Chigg you are back in your zone ! Thanks

[@entertainmentforyou6677]

I hunted since I was a kid and never came across Turkey eggs! Cool!

[@albakanas3558]

Thanks Beau

[@zantar2482]

Great video man. It's cool seeing things in perspective, the videos where you don't find things and then the ones where you find cool stuff.

[@shanetuscarora]

thanks for all the great adventures & videos!

[@sammcclain4634]

You are my favorite you tube channel to watch like how you take the time to explain everything

[@DrZippo01]

That piece of iron with the hook on it at 10:43 looks like a Stock Knife for chopping and rough shaping wood .

[@Roosterdoodler]

Ticks and Snakes!

[@DerelicteMB]

My tracking skill increased from 0 to 1 today. Thanks Chig!

[@kathywolstenholme693]

Awesome finds Mr. Chigg

[@Scrumpilump2000]

Good stuff Chigg! Love the channel, love your sense of adventure and curiosity.

[@England.81]

Erm. Erm. The erm thumbnail pic had me in stitches 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@tomwilliams8675]

You're the private eye of the detector world! Good tracking work Beau! You don't miss anything.🧐👍 "Do you see the way these frog tadpoles are all pointing towards that rock? Now look under that rock, hold your breath and see that piece of lead? Forget that, look past that and see that button from a Civil War uniform? I think we'll look around here a while longer" 😁😊 That's our Chigg!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@irelandmetalmagnetfishing3562]

Very informative and easy to watch... i went out and bought a magnet because of you videos!

[@whateversnext4341]

Great discoveries Chigg!

[@gdelan1]

those sheets of shale are also a great place to find fossils

[@ryanosourus]

Awesome adventure!

[@dawnlindgron5570]

I'm so excited for you ! Exciting that somethings like that still exists... I'm addicted to your channel for years,the first metal detecting person I ever watched. You make everything interesting for flora to Fiona and relics. Keep up the great videos

[@McFunnyBone]

I like to think it was a wagon crash with soldiers and their superior. Maybe a stone bridge that gave when they crossed it. Awesome finds buddy. So fun to watch

[@williamcooper8553]

Awesome finds!!

[@debrabrooks6138]

Wow Awesome finds! It amazes me that those relics were left untouched and hidden for all those years. What history! I sure hope you don't run into a bear! Watch out for poison ivy n such, I noticed marks on your arm. Right behind you when you start the video is (touch me not plant) that when you rub the sap on your skin, cures the poison, also prevents you from getting it, also a good but repellent. Something to keep in mind as you go walking in the woods n such. ☺Had to mention it, because just last night cooked me up a big batch to take with on my walks in the woods. I am so glad to see the wild turkeys are doing good! Here you couldn't find them for many years and now ppl are starting to see them again!

[@alansullivan5913]

Nice finds Chigg!!!

[@joshuataft5541]

Good call on the cartridge box liner..looks it to me. Looks like they shot it too

[@rondathiesen9317]

Goshers Chigg those are awesome finds! Are you going back?? Yes?? Have a fantastic week!😊😊😎😎

[@mikemcguire1371]

Wagon crossover creek, broke axle. Spilled gold coins everywhere

[@edcgearpocketknife]

It’s awsome seeing all these videos.

[@selfretired3025]

I am impressed that you are still finding Civil War items. You must do a lot of research.♡

[@advenzures]

Awesome adventure. Thank you for sharing. Happy Hunting.

[@OutdoorsygalO]

We really enjoyed seeing you back in the rivers and streams. That sure looks like an amazing spot to hunt. Cool artifacts so far. 😁

[@chrisjordan4574]

Dude you pulled it out in the end😁 Good guess about the dead soldier, but what about the wagon??? Interesting and worth checking out the bank in future👍👍👍 Need that sword 🗡 😁

[@CatalinaThePirate]

Skunk or not, you have always made your videos interesting and eminently watchable. I wanted to see you find that sword! Hope you can get back there soon. GL, HH, and travel safe.

[@emptyvesselyt2179]

What a dig chigg that was the bees kneezz.thank you.

[@bodge6886]

Wow man you hit a real hot spot there👍

[@libbynester1814]

OMG! This was an awesome video. Of course, I love all of your videos, but this one was excellent. What neat finds. I was blown away with the wheels and the cannon axle. I could just imagine someone trying to cross there on the rocks and tearing the wagon apart. And the civil war relics gave me cold chills. Not to mention that something had drug a deer carcass. I was afraid something would come out on you to take it back. LOL

[@randlerichardson5826]

You found some good stuff Chigger. GOD BLESS.

[@americanrebel413]

Really cool stuff! Thank you Chigg!

[@bobotompkins]

That thumbnail.....hold yer breathhhh!!!

[@itsomgandy]

Love your vids Chigg keep it up

[@idigdaytona4478]

That wheel and axle broke from the weight of all the gold. Now you have to find where they hid it. Always a fun hut Chigg!

[@oldgoat7856]

Good hunt Chigg thanks for fun videos

[@carollkeen5978]

You're going to get covered in Chigg's, Chigg!🤪

[@richardkimble1265]

I'm surprised Chigg would post such a suggestive picture!

[@waxhawcreek1717]

What is suggestive about it ?

[@ericsackman6896]

Awesome video thx

[@nathanpressler9684]

Awesome video ☺️

[@hughaskew6550]

You weren't afraid of velociraptors in that tall grass?

[@respectanimals2]

Brilliant finds, loved the vid 👍😎🌴

[@olgacarreras6595]

Love your videos

[@treasurehuntingscotlandmud9340]

enjoyed watching the video

[@leannkennedy6568]

Very cool find.

[@nevershutup684]

Thanks for taking me along! I would never have laid in that tall grass. Chiggers would have eaten me alive. When my boys were little and we went to visit Grandma it was close to the Pedernales River (when it has water). So I take my little boys, we walk through 5’ tall Johnson grass as we call it here in Texas. They caught a few little perch and were the happiest boys in the world that day. Then a 250 mile ride home. ‘Bout the time we got home, I started itching. Feeling like a fool but still the itching got worse and worse then really bad! Went to drug store at lunch the next day to buy what I could find. Whatever I bought did not help a bit.!! Ended up going to doc next day for some higher power shot. Really- I counted 134 bites on one leg. Just one. Miserable. I’ve not set foot in weeds or grass since then. But it’s all I can think about when I watch your videos! Well, not all but real chiggers are right up there!

[@mainesjeannelstevens1487]

Fabulous hunt. Love your channel Thank you

[@adventuresunknown1013]

Sweet little scabbard

[@cincin0722]

You better check yourself for ticks after laying in that tall grass

[@hsbrooks]

Cincin 07, especially the lone star variety. Can end up with a red meat allergy which may be temporary or permanent. I had to go two years on fish or poultry only. Had to carry epipens and Benadryl.

[@cincin0722]

@@hsbrooks holy cow dang sorry to hear that

[@anjistone2946]

You certainly know how to draw people in. 😂🤣😂

[@carpdude73]

Hey, Chig I am glad to see you using your gloves!! LOL

[@johnmotzenbecker1268]

chigger ; I had to stop here at 14:47 when you pointed out something you had just spotted as you made your way back to your detector , you called it ' shoulder scale to a Civil War uniform , or an epaulette {sp. ? } ' . Now Chigg , I've said it before , and I'm going to say it once more , it's clear you know your stuff , I impressed . Of all those you can find using " Metal Detectors " on [ line ] , you are the one I follow the most , because of your knowledge , and you seem to have it in spades . Jack Ps. Happy hunting .

[@dcdude81]

After watching this I feel like something big is on the horizon, did you find that cannon? A body? A camp! I can’t wait for the next video!!

[@dennispaulsen2408]

Sticking your hands in holes alone the stream you may come up with SNAPPING TURTLE !! Be careful Chigg.

[@markenger2792]

i heard every word you said today , yea !!!!! cool video Chigger

[@sr.chinta-louisetorpey5566]

How do you manage to not get lost? So enjoy your videos Chig!

[@aserta]

I was in a hale storm last year, middle of the field (brother's farm) on my bike, one of them struck smack in my contact key, breaking it in half. Never checked but they were as big as eggs. Stopped, tipped the bike over a piece of fence and hid under.

[@edhuffmanmetaldetecting]

Great Video and Very Informative!

[@aserta]

The holes might've been where the neck of a watering can went? I have quite a few old tin type watering cans with necks, and all have holes there.

[@its4electric]

Love it great finds go back do some more metal detecting Virginia plenty of battles in Virginia

[@ZeroDiscrimination]

Another great video! Thanks for sharing and happy Hunting! ~ Gypsy

[@sargehill67rudnick38]

Great video those where awsome finds chigger

[@Mr120volts]

That area you are in looks like it could turn up a whole lot more! You have to do another video there

[@IratePuffin]

The holes in that bucket remind me of a minnow bucket.

[@QuestForDetails]

probably punching holes in a tin bucket to make chicory coffee, hard times when the supplies couldn't get through ,

[@Randy2244Fit]

But Chigg, that thumb nail!! 😂😂 that’s a massive window weight.

[@dayel11]

That tiny pewter thingy to me has the vibe of a little pipe tamper, to press tobacco in the pipe chamber. Of course the actual enlarged part of the tamper it appear to be missing, but I found a lot of handcrafted temper with a little ring like that at the other hand, so you can pass a loop to it and tie it at your belt, or keychain to not lose it.

[@robrot5460]

Giacinto I thought it looked like a buckle pin. Whatever it was it was still a nice little find.

[@dayel11]

Yes, i think it's more likely too, i just had this immediate feeling of the tobacco tamper :D

[@hamshackleton]

Bucket with the punched holes - camp shower?

[@CarolinaDiggers]

@ 1:42 !!! TICKS !!!

[@randlerichardson5826]

Yes I’ve been in a hail storm to. It hurts

[@sarahstrong7174]

That little pick thing might have been one end of a handle of the kettle thing.

[@maytagmark2171]

Speed of sound at sea level is about 760 feet per second in a round number. It decreases as altitude increases.

[@joshuataft5541]

I think the hook is a parking break for the wagon
