I believe "my" crayfish is a victim of violent wave action, but neither turned up as a meal for fish nor fowl. I wonder why, as they both made it to adulthood.

As for the huge mix of lakeshore gravel, nothing has turned up as magnetic, and a sluice should turn up some "gold dust". I'm going to spend the winter with my collection of PVC fittings, and flow some lakewater through whatever gadget results.

And then NOT tell anyone what I find, because visitors could set up "perfectly-legal" shop in ankle-deep water!
