Sauble Beach Ring Recovery Lake Huron

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

We received a text message from a client who had lost his wedding ring on Friday. It was now Sunday, and he reached out hoping there was still a chance to recover it. He was not able to meet us at the beach because he lived quite far from the area, and to be honest, it seemed like he was not fully convinced the ring could be found after two days had passed.

He sent us a couple of photos showing where they had been sitting on the beach and gave a description of the area where they had been swimming. With daylight fading fast, we headed straight to the location. It was getting dark, and we knew we did not have much time to work before the light was completely gone.

After a short time we got a strong signal. We dug it up and discovered a ring, but there was one problem. It did not match the description he had given us. We kept going, working the search pattern carefully and hoping we had not missed anything.

Just before we ran out of light, the detector hit again. This time when we looked down, we knew instantly it was the right one. We called him right away, and he could hardly believe that we had actually found it after all that time.

Another recovery and another very happy client.

Port Elgin Gold Ring Recovery Lake Huron

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

We left early in the morning, heading toward Port Elgin after receiving a call from a very kind gentleman. He asked if we would be willing to make the drive to help recover his wedding ring. You could hear the stress in his voice because he was devastated that it had slipped off while he was swimming a few days earlier.

He explained that he had been out deeper than he probably should have been when he felt the ring slide from his finger. He tried desperately to search for it, but the water was rough, the waves were picking up, and he eventually became worried about how tired he was getting. He had no choice but to head back in, fearing the ring was gone forever.

A couple of days later, after searching online for help, he found Ring Finders and reached out to us with hope still lingering.

When we arrived at the beach, we asked him to join us in the water since the spot was quite far out. We walked together through the waves until he pointed out the general area where it had happened. Once he headed back to shore, we set up our grid and began the search.

The depth, the current, and the distance made it a challenge, but after a short time, the unmistakable signal came through. When we pulled the ring from the lake bottom, shining despite the sand and water, we knew we had another successful recovery.

Seeing the relief and joy on his face made the long drive and early start worth every moment. Another memory returned and another story to remember.

Gold Necklace Found Port Elgin Lake Huron

  • from Toronto (Ontario, Canada)

We had left early in the morning for a ring recovery in Port Elgin. It was a four-hour drive before we finally reached the beach, geared up, and headed straight into the water. The search took some time, but we were successful in locating the ring—another happy ending, just like in the other story.

As we were climbing out of the water afterward, tired but feeling good about the recovery, we were approached by another couple who had been at the beach a few days earlier. The gentleman explained that he had lost his gold necklace during their visit. It had slipped off somewhere out in the water, and after days of looking on their own they had almost given up hope.

Even though we had already been in the water for hours, we went back out and set up a proper grid search. The conditions weren’t easy, and the necklace could have been anywhere, but we kept working the pattern one careful sweep at a time. Nearly an hour passed before the signal finally came through. When we pulled the necklace up from the sand and held it out, the look on their faces said everything. There was so much relief and excitement that it instantly made the long day and all the effort worth it.

Another recovery, another memory, and another reminder that these items mean far more than the metal they’re made of.

Lost Platinum Wedding Ring near Coeur d’Alene Idaho….Found!!!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

There was a quick and heavy snow fall that gripped the Coeur d’Alene region, last Tuesday. The roads were impacted; the houses were blanketed and the cars that were left out had been fully covered. This was bad news for Brad. The family had to leave the house soon. Before starting his truck, the driver’s side door had to be cleared. The top of the door always dumps snow into the cab if it’s not removed. After getting the snow off the car he had to clean his hands. With a quick flick the snow shot off his hands. But with the snows icy grip, it stole his ring from his finger. The quick theft that happened on his ring finger sent a cooled chill into his hand. Brad’s brain knew right away that the slippery hand of snow had struck, and his ring was gone. The search began for Brad’s ring instantly. The snow was deep, and it was dark out. So, Brad knew he had to get a metal detector. He was able to rent one and after only finding iron, he returned the detector.  While at the rental shop the clerk told Brad about « A Group » that uses metal detectors. That group, Brad found out, was called The Ring Finders.  So, Brad’s wife Alissa called me and made arrangements for me to come out the next day. After greetings and handshakes, I walked over to the side yard and spoke to Brad about the action that he did to lose his ring. He showed me the flicking motion he did with his hand and where the ring could have landed. I started searching and right away I got a signal and bent down and found a piece of wire. Then moved on down the side of the grass. As I came back, I got the same signal right where I found the wire. So, I pinpointed and dug through the grass until the ring popped out. The ring had buried itself so deep in the grass, that it wasn’t visible by eye and the wire hid it from the metal detector.  I was able to get that sneaky ring back to Brad very quickly.  Thank you, Brad and Alissa, for trusting The Ring Finders. Merry Christmas.

Ring found in Calgary Park

  • from Calgary (Alberta, Canada)

She called just after midnight. Rather distraught. I’m glad she did because I needed to be there IMMEDIATELY. The next morning I arrived at the park at sunrise and walked the path with him on Whats App. Before I could go back and get my equipment I spotted the ring on the path. Picked it up and hit the road to return it the same day.

Lost Ring found by Calgary Lake

  • from Calgary (Alberta, Canada)

It took a while to find but eventually we did. Not under the boardwalk but still above the ground. I spent a lot of time crawling around under the deck. One time being 6’4″ was not an advantage. Pretty sure I had exhausted the area, I stepped back and asked myself what other things could have happened. Then I spotted it. Sitting pretty on the joist supporting the deck. A quick snag and a lovely surprise moment full of tears of joy. Watch the video for the reaction.

Happy Thanksgiving from the Seattle Ring Hunter

Lost Custom Wedding Ring near Lincoln Heights…Found!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

There once was a happy couple named Kassidy and Brian. They walked joyfully around a bike park while their kids rode their bikes. They sat for a while on a bench. Then they walked around the paths in the park and lastly headed back to their car. The days errands needed to be completed, so off to the grocery store they went. Then they returned back to their house. Kassidy had to begin working on the chores. Back and forth she went from left to right, walked all the while keeping a steady pace through each task. There were pumpkins to move, leaves to pile up, grumpy kids to tend to and then lastly a shovel to find. As Kassidy was walking with her shovel she could feel the coolness of the day creep into her hands. Nevertheless, Kassidy kept on working. Cleaning the chicken run, feeding and watering, and new bedding in the nesting boxes. The last step of putting fresh bedding in the nesting area caused another feeling to creep in. The last handful of wood shavings that she was throwing into the box, gave her a familiar feeling. Kassidy’s ring was gone. The fact of the matter was this wasn’t the first time that ring had fallen off. In fact, she knew the very sound it made when it would fall off of her hand and hit the ground. This time was different; the not so happy couple hadn’t the foggiest idea of where it came off at.

The story I normally tell is that the person who lost an item finds me and then I try to find their item. For this story that isn’t how it went. See I got a call at work, it was from one of my colleagues, he had a question about my metal detecting skills. One of his friends had told him about his wife losing her ring. After a day with no contact, I spoke to my colleague about the situation. After a few texts from my colleague to his friend, I got a call from the friend, Brian. We talked and I got the details of where I would search first. So off to the park where the happy couple started their day. After showing up to the park, the evening had come to a close. I had a head lamp but searching in the dark was hard. There were pits and jumps everywhere, I didn’t find the ring there.

After that search, Brian and I talked about meeting up on Saturday. When I arrived in the morning to Brian and Kassidy’s house, I was taken on a tour of their property. Kassidy had been really busy and shown me everywhere the ring could have fallen off. Which was almost anywhere she had walked because the ring would fall off her finger without a forceful action. The tour ended and I asked her where she thought the ring could have fallen off. Her mind told her that it was most likely the chicken coop area. The nesting box was small, so I got out my pin pointer and searched the wood shavings. The next place I thought to look was the bag she had been pulling the shavings out of. At no point did I assume I would find the ring, because the couple had done all they could do to back track her movements. I used my pin pointer on the top of the shavings and then brought the bag out to a clear area to scan it with my metal detector. Swinging the coil around the bag I didn’t get any signals. However, when I tipped the bag over a very clear signal came out of my headphones. I checked the VDI number and saw a 12 on the screen. Thinking the ring was white gold I bent down to take a closer look. The ring was in the bag. I couldn’t believe it. I was thinking there was just a very slim chance this ring was somewhere on their property. But now I was standing over its hiding place wondering if I should surprise the couple. Walking with the bag in hand over to the front door, I thought I would ask for a demonstration from Kassidy on how she was grabbing the shavings out of the bag. Brian went and got Kassidy, and she gladly showed me what she did. The bags opening was facing up and the ring was down away from Kassidy, so I tipped the bag over to reveal the ring sitting inside the bag. Kassidy was in complete shock when she stuck her hand into the bag and retrieved the ring. I was also in shock that the ring was so well hidden inside the bag that it spent two weeks in there without being found. The ring back on Kassidy’s finger and the warm embrace of the couple hugging brought the happiness back to the couple and so concludes a Ring Finders happy ending.

A lady lost her cell phone while floating on a kayak at Deep Lake, Nolte State Park. She had no backup of her iPhone data however the phone was in a dry bag. No GPS PIN created at the time of the drop but lost in a fairly confined area in shallow water. The two main issues no precise GPS of the drop zone and an overloaded lake bottom with milfoil grass making progress extremely difficult to swing a full size dive detector. Watch this video to see all the preparation, labor and gear used to make this recovery a reality. Big shout out to QUEST Metal Detectors and their new SCUBA TECTOR II handheld PI detector. The form factor, durability and simple one button operation down to 200 feet deep is rather impressive. Very simple and straight forward to use, turn it on and find metal targets! It doesn’t get any easier that. In fact it’s the biggest asset in this small compact detector is that it affords a lot of safety for a diver yet still quite effective. We are very happy to report the phone was recovered in the thick milfoil grass inside the cell phone dry bag. The phone took zero damage and all 19,500 photos including irreplaceable business documents and personal memories were recovered.

Lost Heirloom Gold Ring in Post Falls Idaho. FOUND!!!!

  • from Spokane (Washington, United States)

There comes a time in every man’s life when the ones he loves grow old and pass away.  For Glenn, his grandfather was that person and he had passed away a few years ago. As Glenns Aunt was going through Glenn’s grandpa’s things, she came across his wedding ring and knew that Glenn would cherish it and wear it daily. On Monday Glenn had just received this ring as a gift from his aunt and was wearing it proudly as he worked with his father on their cattle ranch. Helping his dad with chores on Monday, took Glenn all around the pasture and by the hay bales. There were gates to open, and troughs to fill. The netting on the hay bale had to be wrapped up and the bales had to be loaded onto the tractor. As the tasks got completed, Glenn ducked behind a stack of pallets to get out of the frigid north wind. He could feel the blood slowing down in his ice-cold fingers but smiled a little as he looked at his grandpa’s ring. As Glenn made his way out from behind the pallets the last of the hay bales were loaded and dropped off. Glenn was slowly losing feeling in his hands as he felt another feeling, that new ring he was wearing was gone. The panic took over the cold feeling, and he walked right back to the last place he was standing. There at the gate he recalled he had seen the ring. The search began and ended as the nighttime crept in with a frigid black blanket. The next day Glenns dad took to the internet to find a metal detector for Glenn. After scrolling down the pages looking at all the different web sites that popped up, he saw my face and profile on the internet. While at work, I got a call from Glenn, we made small talk about his circumstance and made plans for me to come out that afternoon. The family dogs greeted me as I got out of my car. The smell of hay and bovine wafted my way as I got my gear out of the back of my car. As all of my searches begin, I went over the events that Glenn thought lead to him losing his ring. As we walked around the outside of the pasture, I knew his ring wasn’t going to be found, the ground I was searching over was paved with three-inch rock. A large gold ring would sit proudly on top of all that stone. Nevertheless, I did my due diligence to search the rock covered area. The odd pieces of metal showed up under my coil now and again. Glenns dad was quick to point out the places I hadn’t searched, which led us to walking into the pasture. There was a hill that Glenns dad had placed a bale of hay, in fact it was the first bale of hay Glenn helped his dad uncover. As the three black angus cows moved away from the half-eaten bale, I gently swung my detector around. Moving from the top of the pile down I got a solid signal on the edge of the bale. The number 16 showed up on my screen, and I asked the question « What is that? », to which Glenn’s dad said, « there better not be any metal up here ». However, this was a bit of metal, and as I pinpointed and pulled back the hay, a large gold ring popped out of the pile. The yeehaw and pats on the backs accompanied the smile and laugher as the two happy cowboys stood on top of the huge pile of manure.
