At 9:27 mark of this video that is a rock that has green spots and an opening that looks green inside. What kind of rock is that? I have a similar one I found up near Copper Harbor about 20 years ago

[@koreycowan1976]

I live in Alabama... im making a trip to upper peninsula ( lake Superior) at the end of October. Could you recommend where i should look for agate and other stones. Rock hounding is a hobby of mine and i told my wife that 1 whole day is devoted to rocking. Lol... She didn't like that too much.... But she agreed.

[@TheMcEwens419]

Late to the party, but your part of Lake Superior looks amazing! I’m on the southern part of Lake Erie in Ohio. . . We get algae blooms and garbage on our shores. 😢 To all the rock hounds here, I’m glad I found this channel!

[@BEXIVLOGS]

Agate Dad, it was AWESOME meeting you & showing you my best agates. Next time we meet up we will find some more good ones! Thanks for the shoutout man !👏

[@AgateDad]

So happy to have met you too bud, we will definitely be going on some more adventures! You just gotta get back up here! And happy to do so!

Bill had a fantastic group of agates! Wasn't fun getting soaked from rain, but you could definitely see all the beautiful colors of rocks on the shore. Going over to Bill's channel. I love how he's so excited when he talks about his finds, just like you Taylor!

The mix of colors of the rocks alone are beautiful enough to take a bucket full and put them in an aquarium! 😄🤗💗🕊️🌷

[@laurat5143]

Loved all the agates they where amazing. Bills agates, wow. I've been picking up agates all my life. My grandfather had beach front property. He would teas my siblings and I and say there's an agate, and it would be a piece of beach glass. We'd laugh😂 at him, and go look for more of our little beach gems.

[@AgateDad]

Love it!

[@CC-xk6cp]

Hi again TAYLOR What a great looking beach for the hunt. Some rock size which is always fun. Hope you can go back to this spot again sometime. Always fun to see other people's finds and get their stories too. Thx as always for sharing...

All I agree with! Thanks for coming along!

[@diamondhunterTv5]

"Wow, what an exciting rockhounding adventure! The North Shore of Lake Superior truly is a treasure trove for rock collectors, and it's amazing to see the variety and beauty of the rocks you found. The amethyst agate is particularly stunning, and I can only imagine the thrill of discovering such a rare and valuable gemstone.

Bill the blue galaxy, so awesome! !

[@Pentapus1024]

I've found so many of my best agates and jaspers after almost passing them over. I always flip rocks now because sometimes the most glorious material is just out of sight underneath or buried in the sand. I found an AMAZING blue agate (I love in the Mojave) but almost passed it over because I thought it was some glass or plastic because I was down by the shooting range and figured it was just more shattered target material. Moral of the story: don't pass it up. Sure, it's probably nothing but then again, it could be the topest of tiers.

[@TIMOTHYEET69420]

I was at a pumpkin patch and the gravel for the driveway was rocks from Willamette river in the rocks were agets I found a huge agate the size of my hand almost

My kids have been getting into rock hounding much more now they're in their teens. My son like to carve faces into agates and my daughter is venturing into Jewlery. It's exciting to me when my kids get excited about a day outing.

[@silverback5033]

Hi Taylor, now if I told you I just watched a video of two guys sitting in a car looking at their rocks what would you think of me ? 😂😂😂😂😂 Sorry Taylor the thought just amused me. Haha. For an ordinary day not a bad little group of rocks to come across, that one with the band of amethyst looks very cool, nice find along with a couple of those other pieces, a good session. Good to see you have a like minded friend to go out hounding with. Sometimes it's good just to have someone to chat with while your walking the creek or shoreline especially when things are a bit slow. Keep Safe & Keep Rockin

Yeah kind of a different style of video but the adventure was amazing!!
