Hi Ronbo,

Dorchester Creek is a great spot to go.  I was at the YMCA location on Aug 23 and found all sorts of stuff especially Hemipristis (Snaggletooth) teeth.  Be sure and check the tide schedule because it's pretty deep at high tide and once the high tide starts coming in, it can rise fast.  After the tide rose too high to go back into the water I walked the top of the bank and found several areas that contained teeth just laying on top.  Please remember while you can dig the bottom of the creek, don't dig the banks.  Best of luck to ya.

There are  gravel beds in the creek so you shouldn't have any problems finding decent stuff.  In some of the sandy areas of the creek bed there may be gravel just under the sand so be sure to check there as well.  At the YMCA location there is a small feeder creek that is flowing directly into Dorchester Creek that I ventured a short way up and got some gravel from the creek bed there as well.  That's where I found many of my Hemipristis.  At low tide the feeder creek is hardly a trickle.  When the tide gets too high to work the creek, be sure to walk the upper banks of Dorchester Creek and check the sandy areas.  They were getting ready to install some pipes when I was there and I'm not sure if they have completed that or not but if they have then the digging may have unearthed some teeth just waiting to be found right on the surface.  As always if there is still contruction going on please avoid that area of the property.  One final thing, there is some broken glass here and there in the creek so look careful at your shifted gravel before reaching in and bring your water shoes.   Hope you guys have fun.
