What amazes me is how you can find this stuff out of a river just filled with chocolate milk. i have a hard enough time finding something in a hole in land. Thanks for your video, always a pleasure to watch!
Love that pipe wrench, it's not old (...well) maybe early 1900s. I used to have a couple of them in different sizes including a 6-7" tiny (haha) one that was very cool... 😺
Looks great Chigg, we had a good day on the water also found a new bottle honey hole video tomorrow. Love that boat, nobody down this way has ever heard of them or know anything about them, we got some skinny water here they would work great in, don't forget "hold your breath" unless you are SCUBA diving, lol Great job keep up the great work with the animals and the relics!!
Mr. Chig, You really need to start picking up those melted bottles and offer them on Ebay!! My Dad is an artist and is a retired High School Art teacher. He would always display objects like bottles and other stuff. He found some old melted bottles and exclaimed, many times throughout my life, that they made beautiful, perfect art!! No kidding! You can make money on all those MELTED bottles so start keeping!!! One of your fellow detectors! Papa Murf
Always enjoy your adventures in the river Chigg, and you finding goodies and Civil War relics. I scored a nice Civil War book this week at our local Goodwill for under 20 bucks. It is, Civil War Times, Photographic History of the Civil War, Vicksburg to Appomattox by William C. Davis and Bell I. Wiley. Sadly they only had the 2nd volume of the two volume set, but I will be keeping my eyes peeled for the 1st volume, you can bet on that! I have been wanting this set for a very long time, to give me a pictorial reference to go along with some of the Civil War letters that have come down in our family. This volume has nearly 2,000 photographic images of the Civil War and since my hubbies 2nd grt. grandpa was at Vicksburg and many of the other battlefields in this volume, I am looking forward to it as a wonderful source of new information. Every time I see you pull up those bullets, I think of what his job as a surgeon must have been like, patching up the boys hit by those bullets, and it never ceases to amaze me anyone could survive being hit by something that size, but they did. He himself was shot by a nearly spent bullet, and survived to fight on until the end of the war, tho with a scalpel not a rifle. His final days of the war were spent as the head surgeon in charge of the hospital in Fort Marshall near Baltimore, Maryland, and I have his records from that hospital. The Fort is long gone now, as you probably know. I believe there is a Catholic church sitting now where the old Fort used to be. Sure wish you could have gone and detected that site before they built the church, but it was way before our time. (The Fort was completely gone by 1869) Wouldn't that have been marvelous tho, just think of what might have been found?! Thanks once again for another delightful Civil War river adventure. Have a great day!
Awesome day! I don't metal detact, I'm a fossil collector. But, I find your vids fascinating (as I've said before). I appreciate your descriptions and historical context you give as you find interesting objects. The bullet with the star was really cool too.
Great hunt Chigg. I love the adjustable wrench with the wooden handle still attached. Awesome find buddy. I want to invite you to come to SC and hunt the Catawba river with me. There is ALOT waiting to be recovered here. Boocoos of Catawba Indian Arrowheads. Let's do this my friend. Matter of fact, think I'll head out this evening myself. Great finds Chigg. Stay awesome buddy.
Chigg, think about bringing a Stealth sand scoop sometimes to get those deep in the water targets that are too far down in that dirty water, or a shovel and screen to catch neat stuff like marbles and other non metallic objects etc. Just a thought but great videos of your river explorations. So interesting made even better with your extensive knowledge. Tks so much.
As always, I had a “blast” hanging with you on this adventure. Just love the stuff you find. Wish I was that talented. I’m more like Exploring Alabama.
You're back. In the creek doing what I love to watch it's amazing what you find keep up the effort I know you're getting old like I am but got to keep at it great video
Me encantan sus vídeos #Aquachegger mucha naturaleza y mucho aprendizaje. Tengo un Garrett en AT GOLD. Espero tener muchas alegrías como usted. I love your #Aquachegger videos a lot of nature and a lot of learning. I have a Garrett in AT GOLD. I hope to have many joys like you . I'm from Argentina!
The zinc and porcelain lids were on Mason's 1858 patent but after that expired, everybody and his brother started making them so you've got an oldie there.
I had never heard of this star in the bottom of bullets before thanks for the education! That coin was Spanish wasn't it? When you decide to get a new kayak I'll buy that one so hold your breath later brocephus! 😎💨
You should come up to PA sometime Chigg. There was a Revolutionary War battle near here (Battle Of Wyoming). There could be some good artifacts to be found by the Susquehanna River in that area.
First I’d just like to say that I LOVE your videos. Secondly, I’d like to ask if you could maybe do a video on identifying artifacts and the process of cleaning them up once you get back home. Also, just out of curiosity, when it comes to bullets, is it better to find them dropped or fired?
Self cleaning bullets huh? Reminder me of what my father told me many ,many moons ago. Peters bought out a self cleaning shot gun cartridge. Trouble was that they put ground up glass in with the powder. Many pitted barrels was the end result.
Hello Mr.Chiggs. i found a set of pins. Cant seem to find out anything like them. They say "join the black gold army" ...a gun pin and a round one..reminds me of black gold, Texas tea. Do you what they may be..military wise.??
Nice finds Chigg. You found on of my bucket listers. A Conestoga bell. Since I'm so early, maybe you'll see this question. Is it safe to use electrolysis on a very rusted loaded revolver? I found 2 the other day water hunting and I can see one is loaded thru the rot of the cylinder. Yea or nay?
yoman gull If they are badly rusted, I doubt the cartridges pose any danger. I'd try it with little concern. Just set them up pointed in a safe direction, just in case.
Hey man good video this time because you did not go under the water because every time you do it sounds muffled Lee and nice close-up shots that you took their
First one to comment!!! Love your videos Chigg!! Thank you for being an inspiration to many! I started metal detecting because of you and have found so many awesome finds ❤️
When you go home after hunting in that gross water, does the Boss dose you up with antibiotics? I'm amazed you're not always sick! I grew up IN the Gulf but you won't catch me even wading in it any more...too many cooties. They start cutting parts of you off after a beach trip!!!!
Beautiful bullet finds, Chigg! And old tools, also!
Woo, i love that bell and the arsenal bullet and silver coin! Nice hunt Beau!!
Keep Smiling, love your videos and channel. Thanks Tibbs
Terrific finds! Love the old tools! ☺
That star bullet ..very cool!
aquachigger is the metal detecting legend in youtube since 2007 now beat that.
Nice day... Thanks for sharing...👍👍👍👍
What amazes me is how you can find this stuff out of a river just filled with chocolate milk. i have a hard enough time finding something in a hole in land. Thanks for your video, always a pleasure to watch!
Thanks for the close up pics!

Love that pipe wrench, it's not old (...well) maybe early 1900s. I used to have a couple of them in different sizes including a 6-7" tiny (haha) one that was very cool... 😺

Cool findings this time. Water hunt is exciting. HH
Not a bad haul chigger for a few hours you’ve got to look. Congratulations buddy. O

Time to catch up n binge on aquachigger love it
The gauge of those civil war bullets is amazing. No wonder the carnage was so high.
Aquachigger always has the best videos!
Nice finds there chigger keep up the good work and I'll see you on the next stay blessed
Glad to see that you are back on it!
Great hunt Chigg. I love the adjustable wrench with the wooden handle still attached. Awesome find buddy. I want to invite you to come to SC and hunt the Catawba river with me.

Thanks Beau
Great digs chigg! Love the bullets. Cool silver to. HH JOE.
You clean up real good hahahaha!
Wow what a great hunt👍👍
Really nice diverse finds in this video. Love your stuff dude.
The Coin king George 111 Beau saw the Three tell tell Sign thank for classic AquaGhigger Adventure!!!; )
Theres 4 william the 4th I think
How fun. I love it.
Chigg, think about bringing a Stealth sand scoop sometimes to get those deep in the water targets that are too far down in that dirty water, or a shovel and screen to catch neat stuff like marbles and other non metallic objects etc. Just a thought but great videos of your river explorations. So interesting made even better with your extensive knowledge. Tks so much.
Love the bell, great spot...looking forward to the return...GL & HH👍😊✌
Great sort video some cool finds
Love your vids even when you 😃 alot lol thanks Mr Chigg nice finds
Always love your videos Chigg! Keep em coming !
Good place to go panning again like to did a couple of years ago when you found loads of bullets in that creek
The sinker like that will lay and keep a bait on the bottom.
As always, I had a “blast” hanging with you on this adventure. Just love the stuff you find. Wish I was that talented. I’m more like Exploring Alabama.
Love your vids Chigg. I wish I could hunt cool stuffs in the Florida rivers, but the gators would get me, or someone might harpoon me XD
Keep up with vids like this and I migh resubscribe. This is a keeper Beau!
Nice digs Chig
Great day Beau!
Chigg are you gonna put that adjustable wrench through the electrolysis vat in an attempt to restore it?
You're back. In the creek doing what I love to watch it's amazing what you find keep up the effort I know you're getting old like I am but got to keep at it great video
Me encantan sus vídeos #Aquachegger mucha naturaleza y mucho aprendizaje. Tengo un Garrett en AT GOLD. Espero tener muchas alegrías como usted.
I love your #Aquachegger videos a lot of nature and a lot of learning. I have a Garrett in AT GOLD. I hope to have many joys like you . I'm from Argentina!
I found 4 mason jar lids in the creek this weekend, man they sound good!
Takes a day off.
Goes metal detecting. :D
Chigger,awesome finds! Hey can you do a short on your kayak? That things badasss!!! Did you make a kayak jet ski??? Love it
The bell is awesome
The zinc and porcelain lids were on Mason's 1858 patent but after that expired, everybody and his brother started making them so you've got an oldie there.
Pretty good diggin day!!😁😁
You should make a video showcasing the old tools you've found + restored, still use, or just decoration whatever, I think it would be a cool video
That was certainly a good day !❤️
Congrats on 1 million bud👍
I love Spanish silver!
I had never heard of this star in the bottom of bullets before thanks for the education! That coin was Spanish wasn't it? When you decide to get a new kayak I'll buy that one so hold your breath later brocephus! 😎💨
I have a feeling when Chig is done with that kayak it’s probably not gonna be no more good. But here’s to hoping!! lol
Glad to see that I'm not the only one that takes "Mental Health" days.....
Chigg when I was at fort Jackson you could find bullets like that just lying on the ground. I found a lot of them. 😊
Good one
your little Do-Dad is a faucet handle.
Very cool
Good video mr chigg all i seem to find lately is more creepy doll heads keep on smiling from alabama
You should come up to PA sometime Chigg. There was a Revolutionary War battle near here (Battle Of Wyoming). There could be some good artifacts to be found by the Susquehanna River in that area.
Mmm it might be a cool experiment to put the wrench in vinegar or a rust removed solution. Might work, who knows!
6:43 An adze head. Likely. Used to carve bowls, canoes, and other suck niftiness.
That sinker is likely for catfish. They would run the line through the holes. I’ve personally never seen one like it.
First I’d just like to say that I LOVE your videos. Secondly, I’d like to ask if you could maybe do a video on identifying artifacts and the process of cleaning them up once you get back home. Also, just out of curiosity, when it comes to bullets, is it better to find them dropped or fired?

Please please please please at some point can we see your collections and your fence and your finds please at some point!
He's done vids on his collections and his fence and his displays, etc,

Watch this video. It took me an hour to watch a 24 minute video. Keep your finger near the pause button.

King man 👍
How did the mason lids seal off with the ceramic inside like they got????
'Wood working tool' Looks to me to be a 'trap setter' Hammer head to drive in holding pin , other side for scrapping hole to place trap in.
that Bell was really nice Chigg! did it have a maker's mark? love the mud!
Hey, Mr Chigger. Do you keep a journal of gps coordinates for all these dig spots? I’m kinda thinking it might be a shame if you did not.
Wrench is a gas line wrench made (probably) by Bemis and Call around 1900
Hello Mr.Chiggs. i found a set of pins. Cant seem to find out anything like them. They say "join the black gold army" ...a gun pin and a round one..reminds me of black gold, Texas tea. Do you what they may be..military wise.??

Thanks for replying LC. I guess I'll keep my fingers crossed.
3:44 I don't know how deep that hollowed out part is, but it could be a black powder scoop for a pistol. Just hard to tell from the angle.
Hey man good video this time because you did not go under the water because every time you do it sounds muffled Lee and nice close-up shots that you took their
WOO!
First one to comment!!! Love your videos Chigg!! Thank you for being an inspiration to many! I started metal detecting because of you and have found so many awesome finds ❤️
Awesome
When you go home after hunting in that gross water, does the Boss dose you up with antibiotics? I'm amazed you're not always sick! I grew up IN the Gulf but you won't catch me even wading in it any more...too many cooties. They start cutting parts of you off after a beach trip!!!!
It may be possible the silver coin might be a King George II. What incredible finds. Always love your videos!
Chugging do run up on a lot of snakes while in the river
So was that weird sinker the dingger for the bell
