A Couple River Finds

[douglaslefler]

I have been hitting the rivers pretty hard these past 2 weeks as the water has been really low. I have never hunted rivers before and it turns out they have been more productive for me than hunting the fields or creeks which has been a wonderful surprise. In the past two weeks I have found 7 whole points, 3 brokes, and a handful of scrapers and tools. These are just 2 of my finds, I posted them because the side notch point is the best out of all of them, and the long skinny one I have a question about. Do you think this is a whole point? or does it look broken at the base? If it is a whole point I have no idea what type it could be. This is probably the strangest point I have ever found. Anyway any suggestions or answers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Great finds and Great spot.
The broke looks like a tip to a drill or maybe a part to a Lance type///jmo

Agree with comanche the second does look to be a tip broken off. Love the small point. Great find thanks for the look.

Sweet,Some very nice lithics there.
Are you walkin the banks or boatin it?

Is the basal area ground smooth on the sides?If so it looks like it could be a crude older point.Kinda looks like an angastura

nice job man!!! I live in the general area (45 min from QCA). I have several spots around the Spoon and Rock Rivers but have never actually hunted them. How are you doing it?? I mean like do you just walk the banks or something? I'd love to try it sometime but never knew how to go about it!!

I just walk the banks and look for spots where rocks are washing out. You have to get your feet wet but it is a lot easier than walking most of the creeks that I hunt. The water level is really low right now so it is a good time to look. I went today and found two bird points and three brokes.

Good finds, like that notched piece.

Man you're doing great walking there. I agree with C, looks like a drill tip.
