Went to check out a field yesterday on my day off. Spent the morning fishing in the rain, and then headed out to a field in Erie County. Found two points, both pretty much complete. Have worked this field several times before. Usually good for a point or two, but not much sign. Did see a lot of footprints. Looking was good with wet ground. Walked about 5 hours to get these two. A lot of walking for a reward of two artifacts.

Nice Limit Of Trout In Erie County Stream
Had a day off work today, went in the county to fish Temple Creek. Rain steady in the morning, but the creek was flowing perfect. Caught a nice number of trout, all on live minnows. Kept the largest 5 for my son, who loves to eat them. 4 Brookies and 1 brown. Nice quality fish, largest Brook Trout was 15 inches. Except for the steady rain, a nice day to be off work. The fish were there.

Perch Bite Intense At Daybreak At Pier
Went perch fishing before work today. Got to the pier before light. First one out today, ran for my spot. Frigid temps in the 30's with a howling Northwest wind. As soon as my line hit the water, perch were hitting. One rod was all I could control the first hour. Caught 9 keepers, including one jumbo laker. This is a good sign, lakers may be here for this week. Will chase the perch this week.

Arrowheads Found In Artifact Search Pennsylvania
Went for a walk today for about 5 hours. Found 8 worked pieces, only 2 complete heads. Walked an old corn field in Erie County. All triangle points. Did see a lot of sign. Hope this field gets turned over fresh for this year. Saw many footprints in the field before me, so I thought I was lucky to find this many artifacts. We have had 3 days of rain to uncover more points. All in all, a good day.

Arrowheads Found In Erie County Pennsylvania
Took a walk today to start the new season of hunting for artifacts. Spent about 4 hours this afternoon in a field in Erie County. Field was left over from last year, old till. I saw the farmer a few days ago starting some of the fields close to this one when I was out scouting, so I knew I did not have much time. I wanted to take a look before he rough tilled it. Rocks were easy to see as they had abundant rain and snow from the fall and winter. Found a total of 13 worked pieces, only two complete heads. Mostly pieces and parts of triangles. This is what I commonly find in this area. I found one interesting stone, with a curved groove on the surface. Groove was polished and deeply enlayed. Never seen this before. I will have to try and research this stone. Was a good day finding many worked pieces and lots of sign. Looking forward to heading out again soon.
