Probably squishy because of the river?
Clay's malleability depends on its water content. If a ceramicist wanted to use your river clay they'd probably add more water so they could strain out impurities (sticks etc) then leave it to dry until it got to the right consistency.
I wish you were there at the time, we could have sold it as real usable clay!
Probably be clay millionaires by now!
Missed opportunity, I could have been Elon Musk if I'd had your advice back then!
