In The Shadows of The Seaweed…..

FIND No. 250!!!

….One more splash in the cool water was all Patrick wanted. Once on shore standing in the sand, he noticed his ring missing. He wondered where it went and looked in his towel hoping it was in there. Nope. He was leaving town the next day and was in panic mode. I saw the water and rushed right in hoping to cool off for a while longer unlike my last recovery. Starting out neck deep I slowly worked my way towards shore savoring the cool clear water enveloping me. Then Patrick’s wife pointed to a spot she remembered him standing. I slowly drifted over to scan the metal detector coil around and sure enough the detector signaled to me good metal. Descending under the water about 4 feet with my pin pointer Patrick’s ring revealed itself under 3 inches of sand, quite unusual for just being dropped. So, all back on shore and happy Patrick can leave town with his ring and I got to cool off longer!

In The Shadows of The Seaweed….

One last dip in the cool water was all that Ashley and the family wanted. As sunset approached, back on shore and dry they headed for the vehicle, but her husband noticed his ring missing. Where was it he thought? On the sand or in the water? With no way to search I met them the next day. I wanted to cool off so I decided to start metal detecting in the water. Ashley pointed to an area she remembers husband standing in the water. With dusk approaching I wanted to stay in the water and cool off longer, but that spot was where his ring was! Everyone was now happy…… maybe next time I can stay in longer!

In The Shadows of The Seaweed…..

Cooling off was the plan for Cliff and his daughter Tara. Setting up their chairs, they ended up being neck deep in the water once they settled in. The cool water and gentle swells felt like a million bucks. A few short breaks on shore to visit with family had them back in the water quickly. Towards evening Tara noticed her ring missing. Recalling that she was on shore playing with the dogs and even jet skiing had her heating up with worry as to what happened to the ring. When I arrived, there were brief rain showers. I started to grid search just past where they were sitting and got tons of junk signals. Scanning thru a few tall wispy plants poking up, nails, screws and jagged metal was being detected and removed. As heavier rain and lightning rolled in, I went on shore to check the ground where Tara was. Still no ring signal. A break in the clouds had me back in the water working my way closer to shore. Again, more junk was dug up. As I usually recheck the ground after removing junk, I rechecked this spot and got a clear good metal tone thru the headphones. Scraping thru the sand with my small pin pointer revealed her ring quite deep I’ll say. Holding the ring up for Cliff to see he just about fell out of his lawn chair to get into the water. He quickly called Tara who was overtaken with relief that her ring was found. Let the cool down begin.

In The Shadows of The Seaweed is a first in a new series of posts for recoveries made in/underwater dedicated to my turtle Frankie whom I and my friends had the pleasure of watching her dive for food and chase targets in her tank for 8 months. Very inspiring creature whose personality will always drive me harder to find those elusive underwater lost items.

We will miss her. RIP Frankie!

I was contacted by Sean who thought he lost his gold wedding band while cutting his grass. We talked and I agreed to come out at his convivence to conduct a search.

Although it took a little while for our schedules to matchup I went out and met Sean who took me around his property where he wanted me to search. It was a large yard and there was a few spots he thought were more likely than others including one on the property line where the neighbor had just removed some trees. Even though some time had passed the grass in the yard was thick and dense and gave me hope that despite a few cuts the ring might still be hidden there. I got started and soon finished with a small portion of the front yard and the backyard. I was starting to wonder if I was going to be able to find it as I was starting to run out of real estate. Then in the area of the side yard where the trees had been removed I got a strong repeatable sound. I started poking around with my pin pointer and there is was! Sean came out of the house to meet me, very pleasantly surprised that I had found it. It was great to meet another kind and generous client and be able to reunite him with his lost wedding ring.

Elyse reached out to me about a class ring she lost in front of her house. She was doing something while getting into a car and it flew off her finger. We made arrangements and I went out the next morning to see if I could help find the ring.

I arrived and Elyse showed me where the car was parked and what she thought had happened. She described hearing the ring bounce on the pavement a few times. They were convinced that it must have bounced off the sidewalk and into the yard. She had been tried to locate it prior to my arrival with no luck. I searched the yard and curb strips several times with both a large and small coil and could not locate the ring. I was telling Elyse that I was all but positive that the ring was not in the yard and probably somewhere on the street. It was at that point Elyse went over to the car closest to us and looked underneath. Suddenly she emerged with her ring! Elyse was very excited to have her ring back and ruling out the yard for certain played a crucial part in the recovery. It was great to meet another kind and generous client and have her reunited with her lost ring!

Lost Sterling Silver Ring Found in Lake Orion Michigan

Contact:

Green With Laughter…

Got a text from Jerry asking if I could find a lost ring in some ivy, I asked is it poison ivy? He quickly said no just regular ivy. Seems that his wife Terri was throwing yard debris down the embankment next to a huge patch of ivy and her ring came off. The ring is 20 years old and has been with the couple as they have clung to each other, climbed to success together and regrown over time, similar to ivy. I set up my MXT metal detector and starter to scan a grid pattern and got a few pieces of foil. Nearing mid-slope, I got a nice signal in the range where silver would be identified of the metal detector meter. Reaching thru some ivy I separated a few leaves and saw Terri’s ring sitting on a deep green ivy leaf. Lifting it up Jerry saw it and started moving quickly towards me almost falling headfirst down the embankment. Regaining his footing, Terri walked out onto the deck to see what all the excitement was about and couldn’t believe her ring was found! Jerry rushed over to place it on her finger and as she started jumping up and down Jerry said thank Jonathan not me! Now with all smiles on deck Jerry and Terri can return to the « ivy league » of their own!

 A New Partner for Lost History in NWA

My name is Jacob Hogue, and I am proud to officially launch my professional recovery service as a member of The Ring Finders Metal Detecting Service here in Northwest Arkansas. My mission is simple: to help you continue the story of your most sentimental possessions when they go missing. Whether it’s a wedding band lost in a Cave Springs backyard, a family heirloom dropped at Osage Park, or car keys buried in the snow at a local trail, I am here to help you find what you thought was lost forever.

Why Call a Specialist?

Many people try to rent or buy a detector themselves, but without years of experience, the chances of finding a small ring are slim. I use professional-grade equipment like the Minelab X-Terra Pro, which features advanced Pro-Switch technology. For jewelry recovery, I manually switch my frequency to 15 kHz, the « sweet spot » for detecting gold, platinum, and fine silver that standard detectors often miss.

My « No-Risk » Professional Approach

I believe that professional recovery should be accessible to everyone in our community. That’s why I operate on a unique business model designed to put your mind at ease:

• Transparent Pricing: I charge a modest $65 call-out fee to cover my travel and gas across the NWA area.

• Reward-Based Recovery*: My actual finding fee is on a Reward Basis—you pay what the item is worth to you only after it’s back in your hand.

• The Book of Smiles: Every successful recovery is a chance to add to my local « Book of Smiles, » documenting the moment we turn a tragedy back into a celebration.

Serving Cave Springs, Bentonville, Rogers, and beyond…

I am currently the exclusive Ring Finders member listed for this region, and I am ready to respond. If you’ve lost something in Cave Springs, Bentonville, Rogers, or Fayetteville, don’t wait. The sooner we start a professional grid search, the higher the chance of a successful recovery.

Contact me today through my The Ring Finders Profile and let’s bring your jewelry home!

The First Bloom of Spring…..Made Their Hearts Sing!

For just about a year Brendan and his wife had no idea where her ring went missing. Their love of milkweed and the pretty flower it produces inspired them to design a custom ring for Diana. While planting some to attract butterflies is when Brendan thinks the ring vanished. Diana was also busy with other tasks on the property, so they really weren’t sure. I started my grid search on the path Diana took from the house to the garden area. Since the property was once a farmhouse from the late 1800’s I started to see many deep iron targets on my MXT metal detector meter which I quickly passed over. Getting a bouncy signal in where the ring signal would be I dug a piece of foil. Rechecking the ground a new signal sounded good. Pinpointing the item, I dug down about an inch and saw what looked like a flower that was happy to see sunlight again! It was Diana’s ring! Texting them to come out, when they got to me, looking in the hole, Diana plucked the ring from the ground. As huge smiles appeared on their faces, I said what an unusual way to sow the seeds of love!

2 Lost Gold Rings in Yard Found in Southgate Michigan

Less Stress…..

….is what Dawn was hoping for as she revealed that last summer her son and husband Wayne decided to wrestle around in the dark. Afterwards Wayne noticed his rings missing. They searched with various methods but got nothing for their effort. When Wayne suddenly passed away recently, their son asked Dawn if dad had ever found his rings. In the backyard they showed me what they remember happening that evening. Starting a grid search I was just about ready to widen the search area when my MXT metal detector revealed 2 items not too far from each other. Pinpointing closer revealed Wayne’s rings tucked away in the grass! I texted Dawn and son to come out back. They each reached down and pulled up a ring, looking to me and the sky, they said thank you for giving us 2 things to stress less about!
