Metal Detecting A Stream Camp

Metal detecting in the river and along the banks of a Civil War camping area is the name of the game today. In this video I return to a winter campsite that was established to guard a river crossing. In the nearby stream I discover relics and when I venture up on land to explore the camp hut sites, I discover that there are a lot of un-dug signals still in the ground up there as well. Should we go back and land hunt, or just stick to river hunts for awhile?

All your metal detecting hunts are cool, but running water is soothing to the ears, so I vote more river videos. Thanks for posting your videos!

It's a good morning when you can go out on a ramble in a stream, out of a stream, beside a stream. I love the sound of a burbling gurgling stream and you splashing and scratching about searching for treasure's. You always show us really interesting things and your countryside and streams are lovely, even if brushy at times. Thanks for taking us to an encampment, it always makes me see a little bit better what my ancestors experienced during the Civil War. Have a great day!

I like how you ask us a question and then you look at the camera as if you were waiting on our response. Thanks for making me a part of your videos.

Didn't expect to be in the water, did you? Another good reason to keep a "go bag" handy with everything you use on any excursion anywhere. Then you will always have everything you need everywhere you are "hunting". Another great video. Thank you!.

Oh my 😯, you know you’ve watched a lot of Chig videos when you actually recognize the tree roots along the bank he’s revisiting. Love the history and time you spend entertaining us Mr. Chig 🎬

My spouse doesn't enjoy the outdoors, a country girl married a city boy. So as much as I'd enjoy River hunting, or magnet fishing, digging bottles in the dirt or having a meal detector...it will never happen. So I really enjoy watching your videos. Skunked or not! I enjoy them, thank you!

If the site is not overgrown by the time you can get back, I’d dig it before others move in on you. Beautiful stream. Hard to imagine an army at war lived and camped there. You’d think they would have left the awesome Aquachigger a nice cache of gold and silver coins, rare uniform buttons, along cartridge bullets and lead shot, furthermore several perfect artillery shells and cannon balls, along with a scabbard and ceremonial sword, bayonet
