  • On this episode, we'll explore the uninhabited shores of 2 remote and uninhabited barrier islands, Anclote Key, and Three Rooker Island just north of Tampa/St. Pete
    I was able to get to both islands and have tons of time to shell and explore with the amazing help from Captain Josh over at Nordic Fishing Charters and Excursions(I will link their details below)

    I was wondering why I hadn't seen any videos in a while until I read one of the other comments about you suffering a loss. Love you and your vid's and whatever this loss is, my heart and prayers go up heavenward to help ease any pain/suffering you may be experiencing. As usual, beautiful video and your mom is a gem. First time, I believe, I've seen her on any of your offerings. Please give her my kindest regards and it was a pleasure seeing mom and son shelling together! Beautiful scenery and thanx, once again for letting me tag along with you and your mom on yet another shelling adventure...in 4K!

    I always love your videos ....the imagery, the identification of the shells you find, and how you leave some behind when you have plenty of a particular one....but this video was one of my favorites because I could tell how delighted you were with the 2 islands. It was nice to see your mom too. Thanks for all your work to bring us along for the rides!

    Those were the most beautiful augers! I’ve never seen any with such sharp points! Went to anchors key 10 years ago, before I was interested in shelling. I regret not picking more up, but I had my grandkids and they picked some up. Thanks for sharing

    Hey Brian! First of all I have thought about you and your loss all week. I came across your video again from Holden NC and you had Yuki with you. So precious!! I hope your heart is healing! These islands are gorgeous and your mother is a sweetie! So glad you shared this trip with her. All those Chestnut shells, WOW! AWESOME! And that yellow scallop and star shells, beautiful. Thank you for sharing your adventure. Your videos are incredibly well done!!

    Hey Brian! Have been waiting for this video ever since we ran into each other at Honeymoon Island State Park! I've been to Anclote Key but have never seen video of Three Rooker so that was really cool! And, yes, we love our chestnut turbans!😊 Thanks!

      Hello Shell friend! It was so cool to be able to get over to Anclote Key, and Three Rooker to do some shelling. I'll always remember this trip!
      I do have a couple adventures from Honeymoon Island coming soon - stay tuned :)

    Loved all the chestnut turbins! Especially the golden/orange ones. But my favorite is the yellow scallop! I usually don't find them that big! I think Honeymoon Island has a lot of turbins too. I think if I found that many I would make a shell mirror out of just golden turbins!! Thanks for sharing! Hope mom had fun!

    • @solaceinshelling6552

    Totally, totally awesome as always x. Thanks for sharing Nordic Fishing charters deets, I am guilty of going on the very short shell boat tours from Tarpon Springs, love that area so much, I will defo check them out next time we’re down there because I’d love to have more time on the sandbar. Three Rooker island looks like it’s full of treasures too 😊🐚. Hope you’re doing ok ❤

    So many turbans! I think my fav of your finds was the yellow scallop. I find tons of orange but only 1 or 2 yellow ever. Will have to check out Anclote key!

    • @solaceinshelling6552

    It’s so sweet that you spent the morning shelling with your mama. I’d give a lot to be able to do that with mine. The shells were fabulous! I loved the large colorful Chestnut Turbans with their lovely beads. I think you found some Turritella Augers, too! Very nice!😊

    • @solaceinshelling6552

    The true tulip you picked up on Anclote Key was the biggest I have ever seen on a video. Did you pick up a wentletrap on Three Rooker Island?

    • @solaceinshelling6552
      @solaceinshelling6552  Před 3 měsíci

      Hi friend, I am not sure what those mystery shells are, but I speculate they may be some sort of turrid shell, or possibly even a fossil.

    Is it not like the charters to Caladesi where you choose if you want to leave in a half hour or catch the later rides?

    • @solaceinshelling6552
      @solaceinshelling6552  Před 4 měsíci

      Hi friend! I have taken the charter(Odessy Cruise) out of Tarpon previously a few years ago, but on this charter you are limited to a quick 30 minutes on Anclote Key. On this episode I solicited the help of a local private charter with Captain Josh at Nordic Fishing Charters and Excursions! I was able to spend 4 interrupted hours on Anclote Key, and Three Rooker Island.
      Thank you for watching!

  • @carriechristie9058
    @carriechristie9058 Před 5 měsíci

    Do you think the shelling was so good because it's winter vs summer shelling?

    • @drdrew3
      @drdrew3 Před 5 měsíci

      In southwest Florida the shelling is seasonal with winter shelling significantly better than summer. The exception would be after a tropical storm or hurricane passing through The Gulf

  • @lindsayschilling8707
