This is yet another of the many shale points that I find at the low tide water line. I guess they were used for spearing Gar and other fish in the river. Whatever they were used for, there sure are a lot of them here Smiley

Yea..... hard to say what they were used for.... I just guessed gars due to the many Gar Scales that are found on the shore and on the hills overlooking this river site. Whatever they used em for, they sure made and lost a lot of them. Thanks and its good to be back.
