If you want to do some "camera collecting" you're going to be close to the Viburnum Trend. From Eminence head east toward Ellington. Turn left on B (about 5 miles before Ellington). As you drive north Sweetwater Mine will be on your left. All of the mines are owned and operated by the Doe Run Company. They're well marked with signs, you can't miss the turn-offs! Highway B dead ends into 72. Turn left on TT (which turns into KK) and continue north toward Viburnum. Along the way you'll pass by Fletcher, West Fork, Brushy Creek and Buick mines. These are the majority of the mines still operating. If you want more info see https://www.mindat.org/lsearch.php?from=nsearch&loc=viburnum+trend
Highway KK will dead end into 32. Turn left, continue to Salem, turn right on 68, continue north until you reach I-44 in St James (there's a good winery there on the north outer road!), go east on I-44 to the Leasburg/Onandago Cave exit then follow the signs.
Have fun!

Thanks Kevin. I thought we'd be near Viburnum Trend. Great tip on keeping an eye out in the water. I hear it's really clear.

It seemed that most of what was in the river and along shore was karst bedrock, as it would be expected, but that made it hard to determine if any of what I was seeing would be considered agate. Admittedly, I'm not well versed in the different kinds of agates and this is my first venture to this region so I went into it a bit ignorant.
Look for pics soon.
