10/1/08   Surry County, Virginia, USA

As promised bright and early I hit the beach. The plan was to do a little hunting out in Surry then cross the James River to the James city county side. When I got to Surry the river was just as swollen as it was Sunday and it was starting to rain, so I grabbed my rain gear out o...

The river has been pretty swollen the last few weeks from tropical storm Hanna and the north eastern we just had. I have been out a few times but the higher than normal tides have made most trips uneventful. When I last visited the James River an enormous amount of sand had been ...

It's been almost two weeks since I have been able go hunting, so I was looking forward to today. I got to the beach about nine and tide was extra low. The teeth where coming slow, I walked for a half hour befor I found the first one. We hade a few storms monday and tuesday and I was expecting a better turn out. I searched until about two before I decided to turn back and get some lunch. So I called it quits and headed home with the teeth I found and one more coat of sun. A slow day on the river ...

I found these teeth Wednesday out in Surry. I didn't stay out long, the tide was high and the teeth where coming slow.  If not for the beautiful 88 and breezey I may not have stayed out long enough to find what I did. I found one broken Mako a few Tigers and a decent Himi. I did find a nice little scraper and a large whale vert covered in mud rock and shells. I rarley pick up whale bones especially ones so heavy, but this vert was just too cool and wo...
