Anclote Key update

Anclote Key update…

During our last visit at Anclote River Park we had lowered the sensitivity level to 70% which eliminated most of small objects. We received a strong hit at about 5-8 ft deep near the Spanish well.

Capt Joe went back the following weekend with a 9 ft steel rod. He got it down to 6 1/2 feet and hit something hard. He began to pound it with a sledge until it went another 6 inches down. He said it felt like it went through something. They had to pound the rod to get it out. He hit the rod into the ground about 1 foot away from the original target, and it hit something again at around 7 ft.

The tree roots are too far from this location, so it might be possible we might have hit something. We are currently waiting on the county for the date to excavate.

We will keep you posted as we get closer…
