The river finally dropped down low enough to expose some of my spots that I hunt along the banks so I decided to try my luck. I hit one of my spots that usually produces some nice points but this time I only got one little Birdpoint and a couple of decent scrapers. I'm not sure why, but in this particular spot most of the things we find are very highly polished like they've been in a rock tumbler. This is the only spot that we frequent were the flint is like this. The only thing we can figure is because it is very close to a river dock and they dredge the area at least twice a year and maybe these pieces are being pulled up out of the river and polished by the dredger before being redeposited along the shoreline.
Here's a few pictures. These are of the days finds and a close up of the Birdpoint and the Scraper. You can see how highly polished the Scraper is in the close up picture. It is almost so highly polished that you can just barely make out the chipping along the edges.
