Ignore if you've answered elsewhere in the comments, but I was curious about the step-like structures that appeared around 8:00-8:30. You find a couple of bullets there.

[@madamecampsalot6384]

Such clear water!

Love love these videos been watching for years , please never stop.

[@aquachigger]

Thanks for letting me know you enjoy the videos.

[@RaceCar21]

Love the river searches.

[@MrDbone75]

A very good Wednesday evening to you all from Wellington Somerset in the UK 🇬🇧

[@aquachigger]

And to you.

[@TomFromMN]

Loved the clear water. Always enjoy being able to go on another adventure with you. Thanks, Beau.

Every time you find a rod and real in the water, it brings me back to the early 1960's when I was around six. My uncle took me to a river to go fishing. We started out befor dawn. When we got set up it was daylight. When I got my line in the water, it wasn't long befor a big fish grabbed the worm and pulled the rod from me and into the river. My uncle said, as he jumped up to stay there and he ran off and disappeared into the trees. A moment later I heard a splash and a few moments from then, he came back with the lost rod and real. Later I caught the first fish ever, a large carp and after getting home, it was still flopping around while I poised for a photo. Wonder if if the photo is still around.

[@Yinzzy656]

cool story

[@amyjones7962]

Both Rod and reel looked pretty vintage!

[@stevebroadway3713]

Thanks for the video! The water looked really clear. Nice river hunt.

[@TomFromMN]

Looking pretty relaxed, Beau. Love the river. Thanks for sharing.

[@Silver_Gray]

14:32 yes Beau. Haha when you pulled that out underwater I wondered why there was a throwing horseshoe in the river. Great video. Thanks for posting

[@mercedithcompala8148]

The river was very beautiful, love watching your finds...lots of fun 👋😁🪶♥️

[@neillh]

Thanks for taking us along on another great adventure 👍

[@codybrooks8333]

That's an antique rod/reel...definitely worth keeping

[@OldButStillKicking]

Great seeing you on another river adventure. You must have an amazing collection of fishing equipment as I'm sure it's not all junk.

[@aquachigger]

Most is usable. Thanks

[@AnotherMN_Fan]

Another adventure that I've enjoyed watching more than once!

[@AThike]

I want to watch your River videos again in the dead of winter. I love to remember the long summer days of treasure hunting. Have a wonderful trip!

[@llc1976]

The water is so clear! Beautiful!

[@TeamLynchBMD]

Great time on the river Beau

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Always fun to get in the river with you, Chigg! Lots of old junk in there, but the bullets are awesome!❤

[@aquachigger]

Glad you enjoyed it.

[@dougalexander7204]

The river was beautiful today. Thank you so much for taking me along.

[@scottnyc6572]

The visibility and clarity of the water is so much better than the swamp gas river.

[@Silver_Gray]

Yes what was the deal with those swamp gas bubbles haha

[@justaobservationist9077]

Great video as usual 👌 👍

[@mikemaxwell2591]

Best Aquachiger videos, very best!

[@twindiggersminnesotapamandpat]

Chiggs, a beautiful day and crystal clear water. Very nice finds, love the underwater footage as always. 👍😀👏

[@JustPlainSteve5372]

dodads & thingamabobs, a Great hunt on the River! Thanks Chigg!

[@charlieschemmel122]

Nice adventure thanks for sharing!!!!!!

[@randlerichardson5826]

Not a bad trip Chigg yeah that’s a throwing horse shoe.

[@Cobsoniangem]

Great relics coming out of the river today!

[@jeffersonwebb5850]

Great adventure , thanks for the pics at the end of video !

[@dennismorris3254]

Chigg you have inspired me never hunted water just woods and beaches I'm going to get me a kayak

[@diggingnashvegas]

Always love the river hunts

[@brendageorge9024]

YEAH🎉 no more Swamp water 💦 Chigg I like this place love the CLEAR WATER 🌻😉 ❤️🚣🌻🐞🦋🦗🎣🤿🤿🎣🤿

[@malkey44]

Great adventure. Love your videos!!

[@paulkick7870]

You definitely know the places to search!

[@JustPlainSteve5372]

ALRIGHT!!! Back to holding our breath!!!

[@leobower9041]

It looks like something great to do

[@susansmith6680]

Man that water is clear.

[@2304sarah1]

The water was so beautifully clear. I’m interested to know if you’ll be making another season of River Hunters in the UK.

[@aquachigger]

Not this summer, maybe next.

[@richardwarnock2789]

Beau there were some spots that had that Gold bar look to it any story's of lost bars about!

[@patriciayoung3682]

You found some pretty Interesting items the coin and the civil war bullets made the trip well worth it/Do you ever find Indian Artifacts when diving like that? Thanks for the adventure/Another great video/

[@aquachigger]

I do, but not very often. I'm usually focused on retrieving the target I hear.

[@lucca04]

fantastica location , video davvero interessante

[@ranmarch6768]

Congrats for not getting skunked, Chigger. Time for new gloves. I use the chainmail fileting gloves for moving gravel, just a suggestion. They usually last all summer. My recent finds worth noting about was three IJG Buttons on my recent trip to the Savanna River bank in Georgia. I stopped years ago detecting artillery shells, but there were lots of heavy iron signals. I am back now detecting around the Union forts in Washington State. The problem with detecting on WA state or DNR lands is we can't keep the finds.

[@rickyb2200]

Thanks Chigg.

[@mikedelay7137]

Love the videos:) I was out 2 days ago in a lake with the metal detector and found a silver ring and a 1947 silver dime. Had lots of good signals but the ground was rocky and couldnt use a scoop. I think you just showed how to do it:) Thanks for all you do!

[@valiantwarrior4517]

Man, I wish I was out there with you too. That water looks beautiful. I would be good and not interfere with your hunt. 😅

[@rubyredlopez4]

Chigg could you wear one of those Inflatable Life vests, especially when you're out on the water alone 🙏 please 💞

[@oldbamadirt2148]

Got To Dig It🍺👍✌.

[@petekbleeepingaustralia8720]

Chiggs 👍🍺 you need a little pry bar bring with you 👌

[@bruinsfan8278]

Well Done Trooper !

[@Pete_R63]

Don't need to hold my breath, I wear a snorkel as I watch!

[@slimwantedman6694]

Good afternoon from Southeast South Dakota

[@davidhakes3884]

Get a Long reach Grabber or make one Chig. great for any river adventure.

[@Wvnursey]

That horseshoe was huge!!

[@myfavoritemartian1]

You are fortunate. Here in Arizona, no Civil War stuff. Slim pickins for detecting. Guys resort to city parks and under bleachers stuff.

[@tonypope9055]

Oh yeah awesome find

[@JerseyBoy-oq1tt]

The little piece of JUNK looks a lot like spray bars we use in CAR WASHES. It looks like a plastic check valve that we insert a metal water V-Jet to direct water spray. Hope this helps it looks very similar GREAT VIDEOS by the way!

[@user-Icicleandfireball]

114th like, good evening chigg, over here its in the low 70s. Stay hydrated, chigg

[@timothyfoster6169]

Beau, wondering when youre gonna head back up to see Billy in maine? Time to get back downeast!

[@dirtclodmetaldetecting]

Nice hunt!

[@jimmydowney262]

Kickass!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@suebt8794]

I just can't believe how many bullets get found!! So much lead!

[@allanpelton684]

There is always a youngstet looking for his own equipment!

[@kevinhavens8289]

That mercury reel certain ones were worth money might check that model

[@Piratecapt8383]

are you holding out on us Beau? What is in the cave in the background ( at 4:39 )at the ford? LOL

[@TheSportsBoffin]

I dont mind the more modern bullets and shotgun shells you find as they are not as common over here in the UK unless they are found on old WW1 and WW2 trainig areas.

[@andygreen7218]

Love your videos! Hey what was that stone entrance in the background at 4:38?

[@TheLikkinBranch]

Moar beaver content......🤠🇺🇸

[@shake9574]

Yep. Not many of us around that have to find a 1880’s coin for it to be older than us

[@TPaine-ok9dh]

Do you still explore caves ? I haven’t seen any videos about caves in long time.

[@Olds_Gold]

Bumper jack for treasure 2

[@vicferrari9380]

That decorative brass piece looks like it could be a boyscout neck tie slide I dont remember what its called.

[@barbarafritchie2000]

Did you or are you having a birthday soon? You’ve been feeling awful old lately. 😉 Nice day on the river. Thanks.

[@imawehole]

That big chunk of metal has the shape of an old scissor jack squeezed up

[@g.dallasfagan2141]

After the Ford are you going to check out a Chevy?

[@advenzures]

👊🤩👍

[@trudyhodson7669]

I love the river. Your videos are awesome. It breaks my heart to see all the modern trash people throw in there. 😢

[@MRMITCHELLZ]

Are you doing any metal detecting over there across the pond in uk?

[@aquachigger]

I did. Videos to follow soon.

[@MRMITCHELLZ]

@@aquachigger Im soooooo excited!!!!!

[@jamesgates3293]

What detector would you recommend for general use as well as beach detecting. I have a White but since they stopped making them I need a new detector.

[@treepotato9273]

couldn't tell if the coin was 1880 or 1830 but either way it's a fair bit older than any of us 😆 good find

[@monomarino5349]

How did you know i wanted to go on a hunt?

[@Lee-qp6gf]

What happen to the power kayak?

[@virginiahardy9213]

When you are diving like in this video, wear shoes that have felt soles! You wont slip on the rocks..... old fisherman's trick!

[@aquachigger]

Those are illegal in this state.

[@Jamie-tn5qj]

Chigg get some felt bottom fly fishing boots, they will keep you from falling on slippery rocks.

[@aquachigger]

Illegal to use in my state. Transfers rock snot and more.

[@beardednomadvanlife6363]

what's the average VDI # you get for civil war bullets with AT Maxx

[@Jsellers1965]

The block of cast iron looks like a wood plane

[@robertevans8024]

It looked like a horseshoe with part of the hoof still attached.

[@raynin]

Sorry I wasn't here earlier bro. Bad day in prison. I'm here now.😊

[@ranmarch6768]

My dad got peeved trying to catch Creek Bass, he got so frustrated that he tossed his expensive Shimano Rod and reel into the creek. I caught 11 bass using my 10 foot Browning Flyrod rigged like a Crapie rod and 1/16th ounce jigs. He was disgusted that he couldn't catch anything on his expensive gear. 😂 I offered to retrieve his gear, but he forbade me. 😅

[@CHAD-RYAN]

That rod and reel is probably from the civil war. Did you look at the end of the line for a civil war bullet smashed into a fishing weight?

[@jlane9055]

do you ever find gold?

[@aquachigger]

I do, just not around where this video was shot.

[@randlerichardson5826]

Hey Chigg

[@hardyakka6200]

Fess up Chigg your ageing. Thats why that current defeated you and left you an exhausted wreck.

[@aquachigger]

"Fess up"? Heck, I'm one of the lucky ones and ain't dead yet. Plus, I've always subscribed to the notion that if you ain't an exhausted wreck by the end of the day you ain't living. I don't reckon wiping Cheeto dust from your belly is much exercise, but who am I to judge.

[@hardyakka6200]

@@aquachigger I'm happy to report that I have worn my body out. My doctor is very impressed that I can still move. What is Sheeto dust?

[@AndrexT]

@@hardyakka6200 Cheetos are a puffy cheese snack favoured for watching television. They leave orange dust and make your fingers orange as well.

[@jdjd962]

Anyone else think they saw native american indian writings on the rocks underwater???

[@jerrycramer8476]

When I saw that horseshoe I said that's a throwing horseshoe why is that there.

Sir, you should have a metal pick or small crowbar on a string tied to your wrist
