Metal Detecting Civil War Relics In The River : Motorized Kayak Check-Out

[@yell70]

Love to see you doing the water hunting again, this is what many of us love the best!!! Cheers

[@Mag_Aoidh]

And THIS is why I started watching you years ago.

[@muddawgkomm9642]

Captain Billy!!!🤟🤟🤟

[@EVa-fj5et]

I love watching you, because you remind me so much of my dad. The things you joke about, the way you dress, the fact that you named your truck Chig's Rig... Hahaha He is a Civil War expert, but he rarely makes the time to adventure, because he is always doing things for others, and he takes care of my 95 year-old grandpa. I help him take care of Pappaw, too. I just wanted to say thanks for posting your videos. I hope someday my dad can make the time to go out and adventure again like you do.

[@tterbay]

Back in your mostest natural environment. A pleasure to see. Thank you for taking us along Chig. 😃

[@tammyrodems7078]

You forgot to tell us to hold our breath……I almost drowned

[@Ottedikkie]

👍🏻😂😂

[@clivewarren780]

Im super happy for river adventures and civil war relics! I have missed these videos a lot. And i just love water and streams. Very summer-ish.

[@skrimper]

Glad to see you back on the river!

[@SheplerStudios]

Love the river videos! Thanks, Ching.

[@hooper4581]

Woohoo 👏👏back in da River outstanding. It’s been long time since I’ve held my breath

[@glennaw1547]

One of my favorite types of Videos. I love watching you finding civil war relics.

[@rosiebray9373]

Your a good teacher, the kids loved your Fort series, can't wait for you to go back. I'da never thought about the hooks in trees, good to know. Kids have had 2 days out metal detecting so far. Got kinda bored diggin' up nails and junk...so grandma sent them in for cookies and milk then planted a bunch of coins in the weedy areas of the yard. They got to dig anywhere they pulled weeds. Only dug up about a buck sixty five in coins, but they acted like it was a million dollars.....Grandma got her lawn weeded and the kids got paid. It's gonna be a good "weedless" summer. Another great video, thanks for all the good metal detecting info and see you next time.

[@cheaplaughkennedy2318]

Been a long time since I’ve seen you river hunting. Really enjoyed watching this Chigg 👍👌

[@robertcribb3859]

Great first creek walk any time you can find history it's a beautiful thing

[@christopherbrewer9368]

Good to see the Aqua back in Aquachigger!

[@alanstackhouse2939]

The Relic Raft is a good name.Great finds BEAU!😊

[@davids.sharpescpls3075]

All right. The AUGUA Chigg is back. Love it !!!

[@unclejustin7267]

I was wanting to see a river adventure and was about to look up an old civil war river video and this new one just popped in. Thanks Chigg!

[@glennwebster1675]

At around 10;20 when you found that mini ball I love how that fish right next to your hand didn't move and watched you do it.

[@rebeccalucysmith9689]

Good to see you back on the river👍🏻

[@dfdigger3820]

Nice hunt Beau !!! Good to see ya back in the water :) Happy hunting from Doverfoxcroft, Maine :)

[@paulwise9307]

Chigg nice to see you back on the river, I like your motorised canoe brilliant, perhaps the lead spike might be a home made bayonet, it's amazing with all the unsettled weather we have in our world, and we can still find civil war relecs well done chigg keep up the great videos,

[@kurtholder8270]

The Chiggs back in the river! YIPEEEE ! ! Finally !

[@Scribe106]

I wonder if that lead spike is a Cannon Spike. I know they were usually iron or steel but if it was made in the field, lead would be quicker and easier. I imagine hammering/smashing a bunch of lead into the fuse hole would make a Cannon pretty useless too, which is the point.

[@jackyoung42]

I darn near droned ya forgot to tell me to hold my breath !!!

[@michaelhargis7036]

Those bullets were in spectacular condition, what an awesome find. Great video Chigg. Glad to see you back in the aqua. 👍

[@twindiggersminnesotapamandpat]

Chiggs, we held our breathe so many times going under water we got dizzy😂😂. So wonderful to see you out in the water again! Great relic finds 😎😎

[@henrymatthews3141]

Glad to see you are doing what you enjoy

[@Pikesgirl]

Love your river hunting! We were down there and drove through WV/Maryland and I was telling my husband I bet Beau hunted here already every time we drove passed a river. 😂

[@kevinsnyder4425]

I remember watching way back ,when you found a Spencer carbine in the water that was in decent shape. ! Then all that Spanish silver you found ! Some great adventures !

[@joshtavis9799]

Hanging w you is always fun chigg thanks for another great adventure

Relic collector,,for boat ?

[@stoner4life765]

Name for your boat aquarigger

[@greekgladiator7735]

Hey Beau, this is Bobby in Boston and I am a proud subscriber! Please consider calling your kayak the USS CHIGTANIC !

[@rednecksuburbanidiot3230]

Make sure you let us know what you find out about the spike thing

[@detectingpa8968]

Love the motorized Kayak! We hit a local river today and found some great relics! I’ll post in a few days but in the meantime. I will be watching your videos lol

[@guesswho343]

Nice to see you back in the water ....

[@tracybranham8648]

Love seeing you in your River Chigger again. Great Finds!!

[@pickledherring]

River hunting is my favorite to watch.

[@rogerdempsey7227]

Great to see you again on the water awesome fines, call it the chigger boat ,👍

[@michaelkullas2031]

Now it's been hit a million and one times and there is still treasures!

[@dougalexander7204]

It is interesting that you can find bullets and other artifacts, and say they came from a specific battle of the civil war. Further, I’m sure the wobbly kitten is proud of you for sharing the hunt.

[@jillybean9329]

Yessss!! Back in the H2O!!! River treasuuuuuure!!!! Where's my sunglasses 😎

[@101egals]

Just thinking out loud. But could that lead spike be used to spike a cannon?

[@randlerichardson5826]

I’ll be glad to see longer River videos Chigg be safe buddy and GOD BLESS y’all Amen 🙏

[@yakc130]

Can't wait to see what you find when you hit the river by the fort this summer.

[@dixieboy5689]

Yessss.... Im a new viewer. This is remarkable. Im switching from the Watching Paint Dry channel to this. I needed a little excitement in my life.

[@headrot2443]

We love the river hunting

[@susansmith6680]

The clump of leaves and plastic in the tree at 1:59 is that from a flood? It was above your head.

[@danielpahoundis6321]

Just like the good ol days👍

[@brian70Cuda]

Thank you Chigg:) 8:44 min, looked like my key chain I had in the mid 80's, beer bottle opener and all! Love it man!!!

[@jameslowe57]

I prefer to watch your River detecting videos over any others, seems that these are always a good finds

[@silencedogood5766]

Good to see chiggs Hunley back in the water.

[@alabamadixiediggers4714]

Thanks Chigg for another great AQUACHIGGER ADVENTURE see ya on the next

[@brucemiller5381]

this is what I miss. love the water hunting !!!

[@MB-TheRealAustralia]

Yay! River vid...Hold my breath?

[@brucewestoby]

Glad you found a few goodies instead of all poptops...! Good to see you back on a river too.!

[@urAnusFighter1]

The lead spike could be for a musket sometimes when they didnt have molds they would cast bars of lead and shoot square projectiles but could be any time period from french and Indian to civil war

[@gregwicking7688]

The lead steak looks like an early lightning rod tip. Is there a threaded hole on the bottom?

[@IratePuffin]

Good guess but I have one and it’s iron.

[@larryolson8619]

Great video Beau! Good to see you back in the water!!

[@pirate259]

Great finds, I'd love to have a go there....Thanks for posting....

[@tonymckee1944]

You should name your Mokai "Beau-t". Thanks for another great video.

[@vhfgamer]

YAY! The aquachigger is back in the aqua!

[@b3njaminP]

That motorized kayak is next level !

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

Nice to see you back on the water in the Aquasliver! 😃

[@cruising1792]

Hey Chigg, love watching your videos. I think you should call the new boat The Pinpointer. Love from South Wales UK.

[@thomaslockwood8870]

Call it Chigg floater lol. Love your river vids. Keep em coming. Thanks.

[@fivesevenfour2797]

No way youre still makin vids this is dope i used to watch you like 4 5 years ago

[@ianstyles9759]

Nice to see your back on the water Chiggs

[@robgepford1547]

Thank you for sharing with us.

[@scottdunbar4898]

The Mokai lives!

[@IDigHistoryInIowa]

Video is so clear. What’s the camera and video setting?

[@idigdaytona4478]

I hope you get back to the fort soon.

[@bobhandford8445]

Good to have you back,

[@debispilker4392]

Good to see you back on the water!

[@robertdiehl1281]

Great to see you back in the water. Boy it’s so disappointing to see the trash people dump. Great video dude

[@tonyking9663]

Great to see ya back in the river chig, love these vids.

[@brendaadams9244]

Awesome video thank you for sharing from plainwell Michigan

[@jamesmcansh3441]

Must be awesome walking through and digging up history like that. I know you've been up to northern Ontario I believe you said but nothing like you find around here. I spent sometime in Summersville W.V. as a boy , i wish i would have had a derector back then.

[@mikemaxwell803]

I kind of agree with the concern over the spike on the boat facing up. Not so much that you might be thrown into it but I could see feet slipping on rocks and a fall that lands a forearm on that beast. Maybe a tennis ball split and covering it? Like the videos always!

[@livewire6925]

Viewing those river discoveries is truly captivating. Not as scary as the cave stuff and I'm a spelunker!

[@eddominates]

Always good to not get skunked on a river trip! Miniballs are better than nothing! I sure was hoping for a musket though

[@colombecouture7974]

Great video Beau.

[@henryspadt6160]

The chig brig might be a good name since brig was a type of sailing ship

[@grindernorcal4373]

Sir I really enjoy your videos. Think I will start a new hobby because of you.

[@richardperkins6132]

Back on the water an finding some bullets. That's what I'm talking about. That lead pick is very interesting. Always a good day when your out on the water. Great video chigg. Catch ya on your next adventure. As always safe and happy hunting digging.😎👍👍

[@wyatthenning3271]

wow that’s really cool!!!

[@JK35280]

The plate at 3:54 is a single shoulder tie plate, probably for about 70 pound rail...pretty light stuff.

[@OutdoorsygalO]

“Beau’s Chigger”. 😁 (boat name), or simply “The Chigger Beaut” (pronounced like a boat, but also like Beau…..t). 🙂 or “The Chigger Chugger.” Did I win? 😛 Good tip about the fish hooks. Also….line/hooks could be sucked up into the impeller of the boat right? Good explanation about what the currents do and bouncing things can get trapped there. “Beautiful Ketchup packet”. LOL! 😆 Looks like a “Mepps” spinner lure. Should make a wind chime out of the keys? 😊. That would be cool to hang off the sunglasses fence. 😎😎😎✨🔑🗝🔑✨ It’s always nice to see you finding miniballs and musket balls! 👏🏻😃 Interesting spike. Maybe was used as a weapon? Must have been one heck of a battle there!

[@onodagaufo6187]

Remember how everyone use to put those old pull tabs in their cans of beer and soda? We lived dangerous in those days

[@davestelling]

And, we'd shake the can & rattle when we were ready for our next beer...

[@gerggerggy7757]

How did we survive without the government to protect us?!!! We were so lucky

[@lynnerodgers4461]

Temperatures on the way back up, so refreshing moving along the creek with you. Would happily tag along.

[@williamwyand5360]

Nothing like a good water hunt.

[@travisdurgeloh9621]

I kept saying “hold yer breath!” Every time the camera went underwater!

[@OutdoorsygalO]

I love when he says that. 😁

[@jimi4551]

Another quality video Chig!

[@blacktberd08]

Love your boat adventures. Wished I could find one of them older one piece mokai here in Canada.

[@stigolsson1982]

Great finds, nice minie balls.

[@luken4au672]

I have also found one of those lead spikes Often wondered what it was for

[@mikestanners23]

Chigg you should call it the "Bug Boat"! My second choice is the "Chigg Skiff".

[@getdatscrap2945]

Nice finds👍👍

[@eagledetection4451]

Vintage Chigg!! Love it

[@randlerichardson5826]

Hey Chigg glad to see a River run

[@louiswebb1845]

Chigg’s River Rig 👍

[@TroyDeanOnTheRoad]

That chair would complete my collection, just mail it to me. thanks. p.s. love your river videos!

[@4057hofft]

I love the pound cake spike. Thank chig
