Hi all,
Any locations know north of Dallas? Wanted to get out with my son now that the weather is great and the water is low. And any equipment suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance,
Mikey's Dad
WE have seen questions about this area before, never any definite results. Suggestions usually tend to
look at locations on the Sulphur & Brazos rivers,
Sulhpur is a paleontologists ( fossils ) dream.
Google SUPHUR RIVER SHARK TEETH.
Also try SULPHUR RIVER then BRAZOS RIVER in the search block at the top of this message board.

You may be dissappointed with the Sulphur, Lots of locals keep it pretty much "picked" clean.
I hunted there years ago when it was good huntin, now if you find one partial you are lucky.
Digging for points may be difficult. Most sites I know of are off limits. Private property and most look at you like you are there to steal something.
Try some surface around the pitting operations with their permission of course. Most of them are coperative in areas where no activity is going on.
Sorry, I have to add another negative to Out4's report.
First week of October starts the official deer season.
Thats as sacred as football in the new Tx, landowners that will allow surfacing other times of the year will
hold off all but paying hunters.
My advice in the past has been to contact the Dallas fossil club and see what they offer. They do legal, full permission monthly field trips to some really super
locations ( including the Sulphur )
If you happen to spot a piece of flint while fossiling nobody will ever know
