OBX Shelling -- AMAZING Finds!!!

[@ryanfleming55]

Can we talk about the sound quality of this amazing video? I feel like you can hear the crunch of every grain of sand. What a bounty of beautiful shells! Thank you!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you Ryan, I appreciate your comment!

[@GoMidwestFishing]

Somehow you managed to keep my attention for 21 minutes and you didn't even say a word. It was actually kind of nice to just relax with the sounds of the ocean and learn about shells at the same time. That broken bottleneck shell was a rare one.

[@summygirl5648]

I think so as well. Very relaxing and educational ☺️

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

It was so hard not to talk for 21 minutes, Rande, that after I finished filming this video I went a stuck my head in a sand dune and screamed for a couple minutes straight, just to get it out of my system.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Join me for an EPIC shelling adventure in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. This was one of my best shelling trips ever and it includes some extremely rare finds for the Outer Banks!

[@JohnAmes]

Great video my friends big like 👍

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you John!

[@JUNationFishing]

Amazing shapes & sizes! 👍🙏🎣⚒

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks JU!!!⚒

[@mullisoutdoors]

Good Lord at the shells!! Looks like you got a great haul for the garden Randy! Great Video and information on the shells. I love the sound of the ocean in the background! I hope y’all are having a great week!!

[@MinuteontheMountain]

Wow, so many cool finds. Thanks for identifying them for us. Glad you got to get out and enjoy that, Randy.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks John. It's definitely not lost on me what a blessing it is to be able to make a solo trip like that and to have the fortune of spending time at, what for me, is one of the most beautiful places in our country. It's a totally different beauty than what you have out west, but shell hunting on a remote beach gives me some of the same feelings that I have while watching you shed hunt in the Utah wilderness.

[@bucktalesoutdoors7566]

So many shells so little talking. Just the soothing sounds of the surf. I wish I could just shut up sometimes but it’s not in my nature. Lots of cool finds down there Randy ! Sea Shells really are some of Nature’s beautiful works of art, kinda like shed antlers but way more abundant. Nice relaxing video ….. just what the Doctor ordered. 👍🍻✌️

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

At first I was going into talking withdrawal from the silence... and then I just figured I'd enjoy the silence!

[@gaylescovel7308]

Ohmygosh, what a haul! Never heard of keaner welks before. Those were so beautifull! And giant broken horse conch n helment, 🤯 just amazing!!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks Gayle! I rarely find helmet shells and this was the only horse conch I've ever found, so even though they were broken, they were my favorite finds!

[@gaylescovel7308]

@@fatherandsonsfishing , by golly you aren't the only ones to hang to broken shrlls! Other people i follow for shelling do too, especially ones they never find much or whole. I think they make great decor inside or out. 😍🥰😁

[@YourNextCast]

Hey Randy and sons. Hope you all have a great weekend and get to enjoy some fun in the sun and sand. I know your shell collection must be amazing at this point.

[@denise20240]

So many beautiful colourful broken shells. Had the sense you were a little frantic in your scanning of the vast quantity to look at. Shell wonderland!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

It was definitely a shell wonderland! Thanks for watching!

[@summygirl5648]

Enjoyed your video, appreciate that you pick up trash on the beaches! My husband and I do as well. Love our oceans ♥️

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you very much! We have to take care of our beaches and oceans for sure.

[@jlassiter676]

Cool finds. My daughters and I have tried and tried but have had minimal luck. I was planning on going this weekend but decided not to with the storm lingering. This gives us hope, though. I enjoy watching your videos!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you very much, Justin! The storms can be a mixed bag -- on one hand they sometimes wipe the beaches clean, but on the other hand they sometimes bring all the treasures in! The trip in this video was one of my best shelling sessions ever, but I've also been to this exact same area and found nothing. I still don't mind though, at least I'm on the beach. Good luck to you and your daughters on your next trip!

[@kristyjoplin7930]

Was there a storm prior to this day? Lots of amazing finds!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thanks! No storm. I think it was just good timing with the way the tides and currents were running. I’ve shelled this area before and came up empty handed at other times.

[@shellstories]

Awesome finds! You hit the whelk jackpot! That is remarkably far north for a horse conch shell too. I know they've been found in the Cape Lookout area, but to see proof of their existence even further north than that is great to see. Those partial helmets are also quite hard to find, what a great day you had! I am even more impressed that you were able to haul all those shells back too, they get really heavy really quickly. Good luck on your future searches!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you very much! I could not believe I found a horse conch! I've never found one before but I've watched enough shelling videos that I knew what it was. This was one of those trips where I almost wanted to quit shelling because it will likely be some time before I have another session like that. But... for the same reason I go fishing again after a great session, the shelling will continue! And I had to LOL at your comment about hauling the shells! Anybody who doesn't shell (and VIDEO the shelling), won't understand how heavy they get! My hands arms were shaking from carrying the load that it was increasingly difficult to keep the camera steady.

[@katrinalodge6055]

You're missing all the beautiful scallops and calico shells :-)

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

No doubt they are beautiful! We just decided to leave them for others. Thanks for watching!

[@F.A.R.T]

those are some cool finds.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you!

[@NKRWrestlingVlogs]

Great video man do you know if there are any of these kinds of shells in Salvo Nc I’ll be heading down there Saturday for a week!!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

There’s definitely shells like this in Salvo. I found these near Buxton which is near Salvo and I’ve also found shells in Salvo itself. It’s just like fishing - some days are really good and some days aren’t, but I wish you luck with the fishing and the shelling.

[@NKRWrestlingVlogs]

@@fatherandsonsfishing thanks man!!! I appreciate the heck out of ya!!!

[@shelabrehio1050]

Loved the shells. Well the ones I could see anyway. Please slow down when you are scanning the shell piles. That’s part of the fun. Checking them out. Thank you.

[@lardawnsauber658]

What beach was this? I’ve never been to the Outer Banks and am trying to plan a trip! These shells are so beautiful! Such different colors than florida!!!

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you! This was the southern outer banks on the beaches between Buxton and Hatteras.

[@WadeFisherOutdoors]

Man y'all found see beauties.

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

Thank you! It was a good day for sure!

[@FishfearmeStudios]

Do you ever make a shadow box with shells?

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

You got me on that one, I didn't even know what a shadow box was, but I looked it up -- Obviously then, no, I've never made a shadow box, but that does look like a great idea, particularly with some of the smaller shells. We have a whelk garden which is pretty neat and we have put some of the smaller shells into jars or clear lamp bases as decorations.

[@HuntingFarmerOfficial]

Kieners, olives, cockles, now my head’s spinning 😁 The bottle neck was not an awesome find. 🙁 The shell garden grew that day…👍

[@fatherandsonsfishing]

The shell garden had a growth spurt for sure! All the head spinning from these shell names is probably how I'd feel at a farm auction.
