My Most RARE Discovery Yet?! REAL RIVER TREASURE Hunting in Michigan

[@pglover64]

Hey Kyle, did a little research on Joe Brodowski for you. Joseph F. Brodowski was born 3/16/1916 and died 12/11/1998. He lived in Vassar, Tuscola, Michigan and is buried in Riverside Cemetery in Vassar. I’ll see what else I can find on him for you. I’m sure he has family in Vassar and that would be a great family heirloom if you would be willing to sell it or part with it. Enjoy your channel buddy!

[@WILDKYLE]

Wow! That's incredible info you've found. Thank you so much! I wonder if I could get in touch with them. That would be amazing!

[@pglover64]

I did find more on him. He was married to Florence Mae McNeal Brodowski who died in 2010. They married in Steuben Indiana in 1941. Since her death is not that old her obituary is probably online.

[@pglover64]

@@WILDKYLE I believe they had a son named Joe Brodowski who is still living in Saginaw MI. I found his current info online but out of respect for him I will not post it in comments but it is easy to locate him.

[@ArchaeoArnie]

@@WILDKYLE, hey buddy I’m doing all you are up here in Md on the SOMD cliffs with Miocene and Paleocene time period, also with Native American locations as well. We should hook up sometime we could go to a hot spot for meg’s Also I wanted to tell you about a friend selling his property in Alabama soon and has creeks throughout, and has not been lived on in decades. I know I’m more than welcome to go hunt, and would be cool to do a hunt on your show lol Much love brother and keep on keep’in on If your interested please feel free to hit me back, but I don’t have any social media so if you are interested we can exchange info and talk better!

[@michelleflippin1808]

What a cool sign... He and I share a birthday.

[@davelafond7659]

Was that an old car battery around 5:05? You had to check the water level and refill the holes with water.

[@dustinfindsrocks]

That's a lamprey! Super cool! They're parasitic they attach to other fish like a leach. Super primitive they have gill holes like a shark. I've never seen one in the wild before!

[@nikkigraham7494]

In scotland where I'm from we have so many of these in our rivers!

[@SassSafras]

It was cool Dustin, haha just kinda hanging out n didn't move 😂 wonder what was going through its head.

[@juneyshu6197]

Invasive I have read, they dont want them?

[@jenniferhittle799]

Invasive to the great lakes region tho

[@Dh-rp7gg]

They are in Lake Michigan too

[@michellestenton6430]

Love it when you two are hunting in the river! Great finds. Creepy dolls/ doll parts follow you everywhere Kyle. Thanks for sharing. Absolute positive vibes.

[@flo-calfishing8274]

I live in FL, love yalls content. Keep up the great work. I have potentially an Indian relic sight behind the vast property behind my house. There are mounds, I respect and stay away from the mounds but know they’re there. I will never disturb or disrespect them. You are always very respectful. Keep up the great work sir.

[@juneyshu6197]

Battery, not to be in water! Super video, great music background with proper volume, thanks!❤

[@Julianne955]

You take us on the best adventures! I truly enjoyed this one, watching the bottles underwater was a unique perspective. I saw the pinned comment about Mr. Brodowski...that is super cool! Have a wonderful week Kyle! Thanks again for a very enjoyable video!

[@SassSafras]

Hey Kyle, this is "sass safrass" fellow rock lover and creek walker. Do believe the funnel looking dodad is from an old tin gas can. The pour spout. My pap was born in 1913 and had a bunch in the garage when I was growing up. Hope u had fun. I love it up there in the u.p. maybe one day u can visit the gitchee gumee agate museum in st Maris, and talk to the lady about the old copper mines. She knows some ppl that have claims out there. And the old mines always have interesting old bottles lying about and dumped. Not to mention the malachite azurite and other secondary minerals in those old mines. Good luck with everything!

[@laurieowen8696]

I stand in awe at how you have grown, grasshopper 😂 do you see the voice that you have become and the love you gave being returned? It gives me chills. ❤

[@WILDKYLE]

Thank you so much ♥️

[@crossgrainwoodproductsltd9230]

Hi Kyle, I love learning from you, especially about fossils. But I gotta tell you, no matter how clear Michigan's waters may look, You couldn't get me to stick my face in it. I suppose that goes for any unknown body of water. To many pollutants where dumped into so many of Michigans waters during the 1960s and 1970s. I am glad to see your wearing a wet suit and gloves though. I walk rivers in my own state but with waterproof waders, gloves to protect from getting cut, and use a grabber to pick up items. I detect and collect. Well, I pretty much take anything I am able to lift up out of the water, especially if it is a known swimming spot. Glad to see you found so many cool finds. My favorite is the green bottle. Keep on keeping man!

[@cynthiaswearingen1037]

Lots of cool bottles, Kyle, but the sign is a dandy. Youre probably right about it being one of a kind!❤

[@LD-du3xx]

About 11:34, the rubber tube goes to the inside of a stainless milker from a dairy farm. About early 60’s to mid 70’s. They had to be cleaned twice a day after milking cows. I never seen one used as an oil funnel because oil eats rubber as someone suggested before.

[@WilliamJohnson-g6z]

That is exactly what that thing was

[@kamoonrathewolfgod9189]

I always love what you find everywhere you go. You got some awesome finds as you always do. Loved the video. Yes, go back and do some more hunting there. See what else you can find.

[@majorgunn]

Wild Kyle, you can tell the age, sex, species, of about 10 different prehistoric sharks, but a few car parts has you stumped... love your channel and your spirit

[@AngieJames4172]

Junk- One man's junk is another man's treasure. I was born in Battle Creek Michigan. The body shop sign is an EPIC sign Kyle! Most likely one of a kind! Super cool! Great video, look forward to the next one!!

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks so much Angie I'm happy you enjoyed the video. I am so thrilled about the sign!

[@jackiegales]

Agree, live in Michigan and couldn't believe the junk!, I would have been leary about the pollution too. I metal detect and even though I don't find value each time i get rid of alot of junk! Happy hunting

[@valiantwarrior4517]

Thanks for sharing the adventure, sir. Really cool sign. I know those can be really collectible. Especially if they can be linked to known historical events. Pretty sweet!

[@DavidJones-smiley]

Great finds! Love the sign and history about it!

[@lemondigz]

I live in west Mich. I'd give my left foot to have guys like you to hang with around my area. I love creek and river hunting.

[@robbybobby64]

Great sign with some interesting history. There has to be more to this story. Super finds.

[@largent45]

Those were all some really cool finds! That aign you dound was awesome and then the article that your friend found that mentions that specific body shop in it, is just wild! I would love to see a follow up about the sign and to see it after you got it cleaned up a bit! Just really cool stuff and its awesome the things you find in these creeks and rivers! Thanks Kyle! And i love the new album! Its awesome!

[@kimgower1347]

That sign is really cool. Great to have a bit of background on Joe.

[@WILDKYLE]

I'm glad some info turned up on him!

[@Rockin_in_Kentucky]

Dude I'm so jealous, you have the best job in the world! Live the video and thank you! By the way awesome sign.

[@legacyXplore]

So I didn’t see your sub count and didn’t look at view count but about 5 minutes in I’m like this is just great! Then of course I then see I’m not the only one 50k plus subs and great views. Best thing about KZbin is the people pick and they are usually not wrong. Great content.

[@WILDKYLE]

Hey! Thanks so much. I really appreciate the kind words :) thanks for watching!

[@Olds_Gold]

Dude, automobile history right there. Nice find!

[@sisD]

Great day Kyle! Fun in the river.

[@marykaystreasures]

Nice bottles Kyle have a great summer 👍❤️🗝️🇺🇸 Thanks for sharing 👍♥️🗝️🇺🇸

[@catherinewilliams3850]

Great video, some interesting finds in that river, That sign is fabulous, I don't think that was an eel, it looked more like a lamprey.

[@micah06v8]

7:00 a Lamprey, the fish equivalent of a giant leech! 😂

[@cannamich5813]

Was an accident I came across your video but kind of cool I did. James used to be my Faygo rep. Cool video aswell bro

[@AngieJames4172]

YAYYYYYYYYYY A new video!!!!!!!!!! Ok let me watch, I've been waiting !!!

[@WILDKYLE]

Glad you're excited Angie! I'm excited to share this one with y'all!

[@ExplorishingAdventures]

Woah! Decorah, Iowa!!! I grew up 20 miles from there! Great place to find Devonian aged fossils too! I’ll be up at the end of July/first week if August.

[@michiganrelichunter1206]

Great video brother man! I like the music in the video! Hopefully we can get a Michigan hutch next time.

[@WILDKYLE]

A Michigan hutch is gonna happen for sure one of these days!

[@kimharrison888]

Love the beer bottles, and that green bottle Beautiful!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@danamosley]

Wish I could collect all those old bricks! I'd need a uhaul! Always awesome Kyle!! Living vicariously thru these videos!!! Love you dearly!💜💜💜

[@WILDKYLE]

I wish I could collect more too but they take up so much space hahaha!

[@kimharrison888]

Beautiful bottle with the deer!!!👍👍👍👍👍👍🙂❤

[@lisashelton5468]

I love old bottles. What a cool spot. The playboy vhs 🤣🤣🤣 I would’ve freaked out when I found that sign. I need Rivers like this.

[@ossoduro7794]

Car battery at 4:52

[@explosivesilliness]

Every time I get a notification that WILDKYLE has uploaded, I get so happy! You have inspired me to start a bottle collection of my own. You’re my favorite KZbinr and you never fail to put a smile on my face.

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks so much! This means a lot to me. I'm happy I could help inspire that for you. ♥️🙏

[@donnahumphriesallen5805]

Looks like some type of battery, should have gotten that out.✌️❤️

[@shell91]

At 4:53 that's an old car battery.

[@mirkatu3249]

It's exciting when an enamel sign is found whole and yours is two-sided! Can't wait to see it cleaned up. :-)

[@kimderrick7796]

Great video. I could feel the fun you were having. Great teasures found! My only complaint is that same music playing over and over. Thank goodness the level of sound was more appropriate than most videos I've watched with music! Thanks for sharing your adventure with us!

[@gary3270]

Kind of sad that we are so ignorant about keeping our rivers clean! Keep on picking Wildkyle! 😊

[@pomgrant7680]

I agree why do humans insist on destroying the life blood of the earth

[@HondaRidea]

You think dirty rivers are bad you should google “ Space Debris ” and you’ll see how ignorant we really are to pollute the solar system 😂

[@crazycrotalus6942]

Weird fish is a Lamprey, nice find !

[@WILDKYLE]

They are so cool!

[@melissakrone1064]

Fun fact: MI sent lampreys, which are an invasive species here, to England for King Charles to have in a pie at his coronation.

[@PracticalKen]

Nice variety. Thanks for sharing your adventures. If you decide to explore the West side of Michigan, let me know and we can explore.

[@brianking973]

That block was an old car battery I believe. The holes is where you poured water in

[@amandahanson8188]

My thoughts exactly. A 6 volt car battery.

[@jellybean6745]

Acid was in the battery. Not water.

[@christinewalley6829]

Another cool video. You should collect and sell the non-embossed bottles that are good. I'm sure they would sell to those who paint bottles and put in them the fairy lights

[@DISCOVERSASQUATCH]

Love the Creek bottle videos!!

[@TheAdventurousRealtor]

Another very entertaining video! 👏👏👏💖 Thank you

[@ChrissyEis]

Awesome find on the sign

[@patscnr]

Hey Kyle. I can't believe I met you at DG in Centreville Mi. of all places and we were talking about this very video. Lol! Can't wait to do some fossil hunting with you. Your new friend Gil

[@johnrau6568]

Another great adventure video. What river is this? I live in mid-Michigan, just curious.

[@BrandonBrandmaker-km3fz]

Dude I’m friends with James on Facebook 😅I find it crazy to find a video from you with him in it super cool 😎

[@shawnnorrell1686]

That sign was a once in a lifetime find. Definitely the only one left. Might have been a pair ??? 👍

[@LogicBeforeAuthorityOFFICIAL]

Mystery item... Battery

[@lisashelton5468]

Lol. I have created and entire story in my head by the things you found there today. Guns playboy, liquor, body shops. Grats on the finds

[@clintonneuhaus1818]

Wow bro, that sign kicks ass!

[@adventuresinmichiganwlisa9852]

Awesome job Kyle 👍🤓👍. Awesome finds of the Michigan bottle's.

[@roblafay7121]

Would love to see the sign all cleaned up...even better, a video on HOW to clean filthy porcelain signs.

[@WILDKYLE]

I'm not sure if I know how yet but I'm gonna find out 😂

[@alexm495]

Would love to see the sign cleaned up!.. also that playboy vhs tape! ok not really that one.. but thanks for the lol..

[@kslinaz5668]

The green bottle, so cool.

[@lisapurcell51]

I look forward to your videos every week! You know I was thinking. ....since you make glasses out of some...why not do a collection of the old bottle top varieties just smooth the bottoms like you do the glasses. They would stand and display nicely..... just a thought...oh and the big square thing with the cable was an old car or boat battery.. 😊😊😊😊

[@kimharrison888]

Awesome finds!!!!

[@SaltwaterSean]

Just finished the video. Loved all the finds!

[@WILDKYLE]

Thanks so much brother! We had a good day!

[@SaltwaterSean]

@@WILDKYLE I can see that!

[@audraacklin9826]

Awesome sign! ❤️❤️😃

[@makeitnasty989gamingmakeit7]

Them Saginaw bottles are awesome!

[@michelledean6157]

Awesome video Kyle, keep em coming!

[@shawnsullivan9547]

That box around the 5 minute mark is an old 6 volt automotive battery

[@seastheday2020]

Nice hunt and finds!

[@sleighridefishing9027]

That's a lamprey. They have crazy teeth filled mouths that suction themselves to fish and eat them.

[@WILDKYLE]

They are so wild looking!

[@sleighridefishing9027]

@WILDKYLE they sure are! Don't want to have one latch on to your leg! And what an incredible sign! I wonder if Joe still has relatives living in the area and what business is at the old shops location now!?!

[@SonOfVulkan]

It's probably come inland to breed ❤❤❤😂

[@sleighridefishing9027]

@SonOfVulkan they have found their way in through the St Lawrence River and are slowly spreading throughout the great lakes. But quite possibly, they are in these rivers spawning!

[@SonOfVulkan]

@sleighridefishing9027 with how, specifically, the Sea Lampreys life cycle works (im fairly confident thats a sea Lamprey) its only purpose is to breed in fresh water gravel beds

[@1927su]

That looks like part of a crosscut saw! Cool!

[@darlacox301]

As always you took us on a great adventure ❤❤❤❤

[@dustinfindsrocks]

Luck is in the air brother! Not doin bad myself lately.

[@WILDKYLE]

I saw some of your crazy finds lately! Glad the luck is going around!

[@juneyshu6197]

Somebody will buy that sign! Double sided enamel, sweet!

[@iwalkincircles2960]

Metal detector or pin pointer would have been nice there. Bet you would have found a coin or 2

[@WILDKYLE]

Gotta get myself a good underwater detector!

[@SaltwaterSean]

oh baby! I'm here for this!!!

[@WILDKYLE]

Hope you enjoy the video my friend!

[@SaltwaterSean]

@@WILDKYLE :)

[@clwbchbabycakes]

@18:55 spoken like a true pothead. 🤣😂

[@FreeSpiritinLightandLove]

You all should do magnet fishing there, too! Great sign.

[@gnatgnutz7139]

At about 18:10 you're cleaning off a green bottle. Looks like you're standing on a manhole cover. Looked pretty ornate also. As the great Daffy duck once said "Polished up it'll bring a quick two bits on the open market". If you think you can go back and find it

[@tim9430]

@ 4"58 it looks like an old car battery with the six caps all removed...if it's made of plastic. If it's metal, I haven't a clue.

[@allenlange3181]

The big square thing under water was a car or vehicle battery

[@timmywood9677]

I think that eel looking fish was a Lampetra very ancient breed of fish

[@Iceman8723]

11:07 My guess is tip of old funnel

[@Rubysrescue]

Reminded me of a firehose nozzle.

[@GodblessthyUSA]

At 4:54 - a 12V car battery At 6:41 - a Lamprey Eel (should have taken out of the river.) It is an invasive species that destroys Michigan fish.

[@kellyrager3456]

What happened to the mammoth find from your trip with Cris recently?

[@gingermackeen5741]

The big boxy thing at 5 minutes - could it be an old car battery?

[@WILDKYLE]

That seems to be the consensus now!

[@sandycoponen4561]

Have you come up my way to the Keweenaw treasure hunting? So awesome to find things

[@gafairbanks2434]

Im wondering if when the tornadoes came thru back in 1953, i think, when they were cleaning up, they just dumped everything into the rivers.

[@graemero5532]

Would like to have seen the bottles cleaned up

[@susanc257]

I wanna go. This looks like so much fun.😊

[@lynnapplefield553]

Sign is cool find! Maybe ck for relatives!

[@jeffreyyoung4104]

They used to use old batteries for small boat anchors, which is why it still had a cable on one post.

[@copcynthia4758]

I sure enjoy our adventures ❤️

[@lfurches]

Box with holes. Old battery case I think.

[@Splitshot1]

Lol, called the police and nobody's home...I guess Barney locked himself in the cell again, lol.

[@renewedbyRebecca]

michigander here and I just have to say that this looks like it could take place just across the road from me. Now I want to go see if anything is in the creek/river near me.

[@rebeccastoker9207]

Hey just stumbled on the video and wondered where that river is at and the name of it. I have been trying to find a place to take my kids to look. Thank you

[@lisaglassford9574]

Looks like a funnel or for yard hose?

[@johneiermannDigginFLA]

It wouldn't be a Wild Kyle video without finding a doll part in a river or creek. 😂
