How to Find Nice Shark Teeth in Summerville

Today Weezil & Son welcomed Govinn for an afternoon of fossil hunting in Summerville. We decided to sift the Yellow creek for a shot at some nice Oligocene stuff. This creek also sports Miocene, Pliocene, & Pleistocene fossils so you never know what you're going to find. Govinn forgot to lock his car and had to go back, but the weezling and I started sifting without him. When he got back, Govinn had recovered a really nice great white tooth. A really nice one for this spot! My boy started off his day with a shamer megalodon tooth, soon followed by the largest Hemipristis tooth I've ever seen from this spot. I think he measured it at 1 9/16 inches long. The colors are amazing! Next, he pulled out a nice mako, and then his first reef shark tooth. Then it was my turn. I got a horse incisor, a parotodus, a serrated reef shark tooth, and a nice large angustidens tooth. Later I got another piece of reef shark tooth. By that time, the weezling and I were ready to split so Govinn took us home. Then he went back and proceeded to rack an angustidens and a reef shark tooth of his own. That got me thinking, reef shark teeth are rare - far rarer than our recent success with them would indicate. I wonder if one of these sharks died close to where we were sifting? That might explain why we're finding so many specimens of this rare species.
