I have not heard of any problems with old ordnance in that area of the River mouth, but it is certainly a possibility. The problem with the old ordnance is that there is no way to tell if it is a live round or a dummy round! Most of the stuff that they find is mortor rounds and farther east closer to Camp Perry. I know that if I saw one sticking out of the sand I would not be fooling with it, and that is where most of it is found , on the beach.
