Jumping 30 Feet For River Treasures!

Join me at the Ohio River as I go “Arrowhead Hunting” and show you “how to find arrowheads and artifacts” in northern WV. Arrowheads, Flint Ridge, gorget, drill, weed pipe and more.

[@Homer2q]

I enjoy watching!

[@cleggsadventures]

Thanks Much!👍

[@ericwest1197]

Great bunch of finds. Good to see you out recovering artifacts. I haven't found much lately. Been to hot to go very much for me. Have found a lot of antique bottles creek walking. I found 3 weed pipes last year. One in a creek and 2 in fields. Never found any like that before. Better than dirty needles I guess. The deer crossing the river was so cool. Hard to believe there's people that will live their whole life and never get to experience anything like that. Thanks for taking us along.

[@cleggsadventures]

Thank you Eric. That is a shame, but I’m glad I can share with everyone on here. 3 weed pipes! That’s the first for me. I haven’t walked a creek in a while, but I better before the leaves fall, then ya can see anything.

[@bonesstones6584]

Awesome intro and what an incredible buck! That's a vintage electric fence insulator. Your pointy doo-dad reminds me of the little stands called stilts which are used in a kiln for firing pottery. If it is a stilt then it's likely a very old one. I read that they have been found in the areas where English sailing ships dumped there ballast stone to make way for cargo such as tobacco, cotton, timber, etc.

[@cleggsadventures]

[@kenjones4564]

Love your videos,,,, that buck was amazing swimming the river!!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Much Appreciated. Yeah, I wish I’d had the cam rolling when he jumped in. It took a while for him to cross. It’s a long swim.

[@kenjones4564]

@cleggsadventures I watch a lot of videos on KZbin on many subjects. You are one of those that have the talent to not only teach, but entertain. I looked for arrowheads around thirty years ago and only found one that was broken. I would love to come and be part of one of your videos. Thanks Ken

[@scottnock5241]

Great video Scott!!! Lots of great stuff, I blanked again today just a few flakes, need a honey hole!! Be waiting for the next one!!!

[@cleggsadventures]

Scott Nock Thanks man👍. I blanked a couple days before that, when I filmed the deer. Water was high and only found one broke and a few flakes. The mud and sand is so deep in there that nobody wants to dig it. That stuff has been accumulating at the water level for years. As long as I can get to the sand at the low water level, that’s where it’s loaded.

[@scottnock5241]

Clegg’s Adventures that buck was cool!!! I have always wanted to bow hunt the rivers edge!! In pgh we know they swim the river too, just don’t know if they come back???

[@riverrat4631]

The long black rock was used to grind corn or meal in a bowl or they would roll it on a flat rock to grind corn. I live on the Ohio River. I’m 55 and hunted Indian relics with my grandfather as a kid. He went all over the country showing his collection at shows. He even had a few skulls from mound digs along the river. Back before it was illegal to dig the mounds. We walked miles in fields along the river. I still know where those mounds was before they leveled them for farming.

[@cleggsadventures]

I think a lot was leveled by farming

[@riverrat4631]

@@cleggsadventures I have a few special pieces left from my grandfather. They was sold off back in the 80’s to settle his estate when he passed. I live in Southeastern Indiana. I can see Ohio and Kentucky from my upstairs window. I live on Hogan Creek in Aurora Indiana. About a 1/4 mile off the river.

Like your videos. I've gotten in the habit of carrying when I go 'artifacting'. 44 Special snubnose revolver. First two are snake shot, the next 3 are hollow points. Not a bad habit to get into.

[@cleggsadventures]

boeing757 Probably a good idea 👍

[@toddincabo]

👍 Nice finds. For sure they had swap meets just like today where trade was king and whatever skill you were best at was probably passed down to the next generation. I can just picture a skin or mat laid out there with beautiful different size gorgets competing with the "gorget family" down the way.

[@cleggsadventures]

That’s the way I see it also. One person can’t do it all.

[@eddielile7177]

Looks like you had a good day man ! Let’s see you add a back flip next time ! I think that’s a pestle for sure I have a couple that are identical!! Maybe the little cone thing is part of a dish or pot ? That drill is nice and so are the points !!👍

[@cleggsadventures]

Eddie Lile 👍 I think it is a pestle also. Especially with the pecked up place on the end. Thanks for watching 👍

[@sonnypate6808]

Sweet haul of artifacts. That first point is real nice. I find points made out of Crooksville here in Scioto County Oh. The one in my profile pic is made of it and has a huge fossil. The drill looks to me like a point that had a impact fracture and was reworked into a drill. The stone piece that looks like a cone is maybe a foot off a stone bowl. I found one in a dig at a rock shelter. It had three pointed cone shaped feet on it. That's my best guess. Congrats on 800 subs you deserve a lot more. Your channel is interesting , informative and entertaining. Best of luck. Nice buck.

[@cleggsadventures]

Sonny Pate Thank you very much. You may be right on this stuff. Some of it is very hard to Identify, especially if it’s just a small shard. Thanks for watching 👍

[@sonnypate6808]

@@cleggsadventures You're right about that. Just having a small piece of a artifact makes it really difficult to ID it. Any suggestions I make are only my opinions from past finds. Sadly a lot of pieces we will never know what they were part of or their use. But that's what keeps us hunting to try to answer these questions.

[@cleggsadventures]

Or, to try and find the other halves. Which I never seem to find .

[@Pwrcritter]

A good day! Sandy beaches here too. Not sure how deep the base clay is. Are there usually rocks/points once I get down to it? and will this hold true for gravel beaches as well..

[@cleggsadventures]

Pwrcritter Not sure of the area where you hunt but get right at the edge of the water at the low level. Dig down with the shovel and see if you hit stone. I just keep scooping it out and working backwards. If there’s a lot of stone down there, there’s usually more. There are points on the beaches higher up but it’s scattered and ya have to get lucky to find something. The gravel beaches aren’t very good, ya just fill the screen with gravel. On the gravel beaches, I rake and rinse with buckets of water. Easier to find stuff in the sand.

[@Pwrcritter]

@@cleggsadventures Thanks I will try that. I'm about an hour north of u. Shoreline runs from mud, sand. To gravel and 3-4 "rock in places. I've found a few raking the gravel ones but its pretty slim.

[@buckeyeusafveteran4706]

Cool finds, is there a way to tell if the holes are drilled are natural? I have a few pieces I've found at the site i hunt that could be fishing weights or something but I'm never sure about anything i seem to find that doesn't have heavy serration haha

[@cleggsadventures]

Buckeye USAF Veteran You will have no doubt when you see a drilled hole as opposed to a natural one. The drilled one will be perfect round .

[@buckeyeusafveteran4706]

@@cleggsadventures I think you underestimate my confidence and eyes in being able to determine a perfectly round hole haha. I took a look at my collection of flint and river stones with holes in them and still wasn't sure. Although a lot of my artifacts i find have some serious tumble action to them from the alum creek river. If you need any ideas for videos i love the instructional ones like rocks Cousteau has been doing lately with identifying flint types and such. keep up the great content i love watching your videos when my body doesn't let me hit the river.

@@cleggsadventures I grew up a block away from the Allegheny RIver just north of Pittsburgh. As a kid, I would find empty "clam shells" big ones. I thought somebody was throwing them away on the shore. I didn't know of freshwater mussels. Then I found one that was dead with the mussel still inside. So then I had to look them up. They can get pretty darn big.
