What happened Dumb A##?
Where is your income?
Did Spike or you either graduate High School?
Seriously man?
You MADE MY CHANNEL HERE MAN.
I stole all you ad revenue.
I can make you look like a FOOL on demand.
And I am going to.
You are TRASH.
It'd be great if you'd do a video showing the characteristics of the different periods, what a fire rock is, what heat treated is and looks like, and basic stuff like that.
Glad you have the skimmer double screened. Don't want a bird point slipping through.
I love this stuff!
Currently living in Idaho but grew up in N. Alabama.
We used to hang around Cotaco Creek in Eastern Morgan County.
We pronounced that CO tA cO Creek. You pronounce that
Cot a cO. You are seriously my favorite channel. We used to comb the ag fields around Redstone Arsenal and found a few things after spring discing.
Thanks for being so dedicated. Truly a YT treasure.
Great haul! I love your shares. Thanks for letting us experience your adventures!
So fun to watch!
Keep ‘em coming, there’s no hunting where I live so I just go hunting with you now, thanks ditchwalker!!!
My pleasure Craig....it will continue...thanks for your views and comments
What fun it is!!! Your videos are the best
As always.,thank you and I appreciate your comments Cherie
Keep on rocking
Awesome video. I remember way back in 2006 there was a guy called ovets1 doing this. We had a tiny community then. Times have changed.
Neat little drill! Nice color in those points, and quartz hammer stones, great finds thanks for sharing!!
Awsome technique for finding these! That was a cool nutting stone!
Good stuff brother. Always look forward to your videos

Awesome hunt, and saves 👊🍀✌!!! Nice opener too buddy 👍
Appreciate it...goodluck hunting
@@Theditchwalker Thanks buddy 👍,Good luck to you 🍀🍀
Sure wish we had that material around here in VA. Mostly quartz and blue or gray soft chert here. Be awesome to run across some traded jasper one day. Awesome video man, keep it up!
You made me tired watching all that shovel work!! Great finds buddy
Keychain. Jeff and I will continue to support you. We have learned a lot for watching you.
Hey man, just finished your video. Thank you again for another great experience. I do like that probe you’re using. I sure like to see how that skinny metal rod is attached to that copper pipe you in your hand maybe one day you’ll show us how you made it appreciate all your videos you take care stay safe and sound. Thanks again.
Great video my Friend. Killer little drill. Love that red jasper. I'm also a fan of the pecking/hammer stones. A little of everything in that spot. Ready for your next adventure, Thanks
Well man like I’ve said a few times one of the best channels on CZcams hands down been watching you as long as you been on here all your knowledge is great I’ve learned a lot from you keep it up brother man your gona hit the mother load soon I feel it I just love that jasper around your neck of the woods take care man
What a cool drill! I’d love a bottle opener. I’ll be out walking ditches here in California this weekend
You should make a video showing your whole collection. I'll bet it's epic
Amazing what can happen in a given space, awesome recoveries 😎😎😎
Really love the little drill!
Love the videos, brother
Glad you like them! Thanks for commenting
I love this channel
Glad you enjoy...thanks for commenting
Thought about yall when we drove through Missori on the way back to Sc from Colorado! We found some great fossils and crystals ! Not a ton of artifacts tho lol. Another great Vidayoo!
Nice saves!!! That probing is everything when that water is muddy.. I’m in the process of making one. Love the purple bottle opener brother!!!
👍 Nice finds, if I was back in Bama I'd take you up on the bottle opener.
I'm sending them to wherever so feel free
@@Theditchwalker I'm down here in Cabo Mx, but thanks and good hunting.
Wow nice Nut/camp Stones.. in the fire pits I find a bunch of the pecking stones and bone -antler tools
Thanks for sharing and having us along. Nice stones. Not everyone appreciates those .
Joseph, jus found your channel,great finds! Great leg work ! People have no clue the hours that you have to put in to be successful, fellow relic/artifact hunter here. BTW,I'm jus up the road in Prentiss co,looking forward to hopfully meeting you soon, I'll be visiting the artifact show at Corinth at end of the month,imagine I'll see you there,keep stomping the mud Brother
Great video, looking forward to the next one
Some great finds and always love your videos. God Bless.
Keychain...Thank You! Love your videos
Nice job Ditchwalker. Nice finds,love your content, attitude, the whole deal.thanks for sharing brother.
Great hunt man , glad you was able to walk out with some finds ! Thank you for sharing
HERE WE GO!!!
Hey brother. I imagine you have 1 heck of a collection. Anyway you'd ever give us a tour.
wrist band! Please and thank you! Love your channel
Nice bits there. That flat rock reminds me of the lead palm guards we dig over here in Britain from time to time. Used by leather workers when using awls and needles in making leather goods.
awesome videos... absolutely love it. would u mind making a videos showing some techniques and spots to look for?
I always enjoy your videos! I learn from them! Looks like hard work sifting in the creek! But well worth it to find artifacts like that. Take care and happy hunting.
Glad you enjoy Norma...as always.,appreciate your comments
Love the drill, found one last spring and my heart was racing !!! Love to have a keychain
The heat is on its way to us in Mississippi. Stay hydrated out there brother! ♥
As always so much enjoy your videos, always feel like we are right along with ya. Was ready to see something new from ya. I’ll take a keychain sir
Great finds brother👍🇺🇸
Wristband!
Nice big hammer stone. I saw the indentation as you pulled it out. The stone being wet had a good reflection of the curvature. I actually found my first hammer stone last weekend. Heavy piece of river rock, not sure what it is. Always a pleasure watching and your drawl is pleasant to listen to.
Just ran across your channel, love the video!
Glad you enjoy...thanks for commenting
Nice finds brother. I've found a couple nice quarts Hammerstones. Not much quartz where I'm at.
Great finds my friend! We’ve always watched and enjoyed your channel. You have always inspired us in creating our channel and sharing. We would love to have a keychain or wristband. Happy Hunting my friend! God Bless!
Absolutely amazing. I would like to give this a try.
Would love a wristband.
Some great Finds! I'm sure u probably already know this, but if you want to get the leaves off of the sifter , u can after sifting the sand u can push your sifter down under the water and out from you and it will clear those leaves and light material off , so u can see better. I do it a few times and it helps me alot. Awesome Vidayoo Again!
Might should carry some zip ties ?? Great video , thanks !!!!!!
Whooo… just watching you shovel & sift all that material, I guarantee you’re going home tired after a few hours of that.
Guarantee it....I pull 4 and 5 hour trips too.....shower and nap afterwards lol
@Theditchwalker Is your probing rod made of copper/brass? And is there any reason for that as the material used? Thanks, I admire your dedication, and enjoy your content.
I've finnaly found a spot and found some points ditch walker mesolithic to neolthic some scrapers knifes perfarators nothing like what you find but still amazing
cool stuff man!
Cotaco creek runs behind my house. It makes me chuckle when i hear you pronouce it (coh-tee-co) lol we pronounce it (cuh-tay-cuh)
What did you make that probe with?
I have welders but I can’t imagine where to find that thin metal rod.
A stainless steel whip antenna..
hey - hey ditchwalker;
may or may not… but doe in the Heart of Dixie, we find lots of blowgun “dart points.”. I’m talkin anywhere from 1/4” up to 1/2” at. widest point. usually, jut triangular shaped, nicely worked flint flakes, ( very few jasper, or chert). the way u sling around the contents of your sieve, I’m wonderin if u’r lookin out for the smaller dart points, or is it that there just aren’t many around where u hound for rocks?
great finds, I backed up to some of u’r’18, & ‘19 vids; man u got some beaut’s outta the ditches & creeks!
we find very few of the points in excess of 3”. only ever found one Clovis in 40+/- yrs. of hunting, all media, but mostly field finds. the hydro power plant regulates the water in the tributaries, and we very rarely get low water, to the extent that would allow wading in the creeks and rivers.
great finds @ditchwalker!
ps: give us u’r opinion on why the oldest points / tools are so much better made, prettier, than the newer stuff?
u would think, trading methods and technologies, that knapping would improve, rather than becoming more crude, huh?
Yeah I get what your saying....I do look out for them...there doesn't seem to be many in this particular creek...just a few.I usually get them with this double screened sifter. Northern Mississippi has some of the best streams there is to wade and look for artifacts. I hunt the tombigbee watershed region...all the tributaries in the area drain in a southerly direction toward tombigbee river....it is mostly limestone to soft clay bottomed creeks with sand mixed in..the drainage is swift.,rolling over and wiping clean everything. Only in the winter. They silt in late spring for the summer
Hey man, how’s everybody doing out there? Just checking in with you lol.
All is good Jeff...waiting on some water...it's dry here...very dry
Key chain, I used to live near tupelo, found a 5 inch benton, I can give you the location if interested
Have a safe fourth.
You as well Tim...thanks for commenting
That last rock may actually be a shear stone or anvil stone. It would be used to hold a smaller rock to shear it in half to be used as a preform. Pretty sure that large flake you got at the first site was made that way.
Very possible...it looks like it has been used for several purposes....thanks for commenting Bill
Hey buddy, I hope that everything is OK with you. Haven’t seen a video from you for a long time and I just came over to check on you.
All is well....a big freeze.,then a flood have hampered me getting in any hunts in....Now.,working out of town is hampering me....I'll be back soon
@@Theditchwalker can’t wait Mister!!!
Sure enjoy watching ya. Quite question. I live in Kansas. My uncle owns some land with a sand creek. I was building minnow traps on a sand bar and just happened to find a really nice bird point. Are the chances good where there’s one there will probably be more?
Appreciate it....yes..especially in a sandy creek....they don't move well in more sandy creeks and tend to congregate in a small area
@@Theditchwalker awesome! I’m so excited. Can’t wait for it to warm up a bit. Appreciate yer time!
You didnt keep that drill tip? Also id like a wrist band!
No.,I was going to and wound up dumping out a sifter load on top of it...my email is pinned in the comments
@@Theditchwalker bummer. Ill shoot you an email thanks!
if I’m finding a lot of points on the rock bars in this creek there’s a high chance the sandy stretches inbetween could be even better than the rock bars? A lot of crude stuff but also a lot of broken 9’s and 10’s
Yes....and even in the rock bars themselves....
Thanks man we are always just surface hunting them gonna have to make me a sifter and get after it this year
What were those blue colored rocks? Looked like they could be valuable.
That is actually blue clay...prevalent in North Mississippi streams...thanks for commenting
Whered you get your probe?
Hey Joseph How do you go about finding creeks that will contain the arrowheads and relics ? I live in Mississippi and I haven’t had any luck yet.. what should I look for and how should I make a decision about where to go ?
When you go be so careful, those Water-moccasin 🐍guys are territorial/aggressive/not friendly!
Go after a rain, begin with a shallow ditch-creek, that aligns with the run off from a a field, particularly after they turn the soil.
Look at the Landscape, try to pick a natural landscape that provides "water/creek or close to river, a natural break in the terrain with Trees, and blocking North Winds."
Watch for areas for good Clay collection, you can find artifacts close to these zones.
Above all, (expect to find something delicious, take time to appreciate the environment, give thoughts of appreciation to the Creator and the Earth for all the Life energies they sustain.
Enjoy, take your time, so you don't break a piece getting it out of the soil.
Best Thoughts,
Best Finds!
PS: Wear thin cotton Long sleeve shirt to keep the mosquitoes at bay, use Vicks Salve and (can add Peppermint Oil and Cedar Oil), to keep bugs away.
When you say drill is it just that or did they use it to poke holes in animal skin so they could sew it together
Does that creek run through one campsite or just different ones through its length? Luv you videos!
It runs through a couple other campsites that don't produce much. This spot I been doing these vids out of is one multi occupational site in the side of a ridge...the creek brushes up against it for about an eighth of a mile. When you can see flint flakes in the sand.,you know it's time to dig..😂
@@Theditchwalker Awesome! Used to have a creek here in Missouri that I found so many points in. But, a gravel company dug it all out! Sad!
I have a tubular work stone that I’ve never seen before in any vids , if you have a way for me to send a pic of it I would love your opinion on it dimpled in both ends long enough to fit right in my hand .

Is your sifter mesh/ring home made?
Are you talking about the frame..?
@@Theditchwalker the frame and mesh. The entire wash setup.
It's a yard fire pit
Why can’t this creek run clear?
It will during the winter and spring months when there is a lot of waterflow..but all the sand limits surface hunting...
Google+ no longer works. The Facebook link isn’t working either. What email do I use?
I'll pin it in the comments
Is there a chance i could send you some pictures of a rare point, to give me some information about it. I can’t find a match on it
I sent them to you on messenger
Anyone know what the blue rock is that is so abundant?
That is not rock...that is a soft blue clay that I have scraped from the bottom.
@@Theditchwalker got it, thanks!
Keychain
Don't forget to email me address...I'm sending a shipment this weekend.. thanks for commenting
Can't wait to walk with you one day Bud.
Hey man do you know the Pounders twins. Twin brothers.
On little bear creer.
ttle
No.,I don't think so
They live in Russellville Alabama and collect Artifacts. Good dudes. I have been there hunting turkeys with them and I thought you may have been close to that area. There region is artifact rich. Little Bear Creek Valley. You find some beautiful artifacts. I really like the red jasper points. I am a primitive bow maker and hunter/flint knapper and CZcams watcher. Keep the points coming.
