. . . the catch of a lifetime-a sword, still in its wooden scabbard, encrusted in barnacles hiding the secret of its maker.

The Chaguaramas Military History and AeroSpace Museum investigated the the origin of the treasure. But just as mysterious is how the sword came to rest on the shallow seabed not 50 feet from the coastal road at the creek. . .


"I went there with three friends, hoping to catch fish, any fish, big or small, them ugly catfish even, but not a sword...fish!".

. . For anyone interested, Jagroops cast his line midway along the Mosquito Creek stretch, into water no more than six feet high.

. . I shouted "pirate sword". We packed up and headed home".

Some people have all the luck. His biggest concern is how much is it worth. I wonder if someone will purchase it and do research on where it came from. There may be a ship just waiting to be found.
