Bluff Point State Park Groton CT Men’s Wedding band returned 2025
July 5, 2025 Lauren and her husband wanted to go to Bluff Point state park on the fourth of July to watch the fireworks display. They decided to go for a swim and Lauren felt her wedding rings getting loose from the cold water and decided to go back to shore to leave them on the blanket. her husband took his ring off at the same time and while handing it to her it dropped into the ocean at about chest level. Lauren quickly searched for best options and considered buying a detector but realized that an underwater detector would be very expensive and being an engineer knew that there would be a learning curve. She then started internet searches for what to do about lost rings and that led her to theringfinders,com she called the two people listed and when I answered she entrusted me with coming to look for it and I was there within a half hour. I knew the tide was an important factor and raced to be there before it changed. I did not realize it was going to be a three-mile walk to get to the secluded beach spot. But she had marked the location beautifully with a driftwood log. When we arrived, there was a family sitting there and we asked if e could share the spot as a base for the recovery. Lauren described the circumstances from the previous night and I jumped into the water and began the search. Within minutes I had a sweet signal and lifted my first scoop. The signal was still strong and in the hole. A second scoop and the signal disappeared, and I knew it was in my scoop. I walked to shore and dumped the scoop and then used my trusty pin pointer to isolate the ring. I called her over and had her lift the ring from the sand and then the tears of joy started to flow with an exclamation « I can’t believe it!! » The nearby family joined in the celebration and were shocked. We then took some pictures and made a video reenactment to share with her family. I thought it was so nice that Lauren had also packed us sandwiches for a treat. She called her husband at work and shared the good news and was still in stunned and in awe that we found it so quickly. Funny thing she said she was going to bring a kitchen colander and start scooping the sand if I had not been able to come and find it. That may have taken quite a while, so she was happy that I had agreed to come so quickly. She had been told by others that it was probably a lost cause, so this made her that much happier with my finding it. Our prayers to Saint Anthony were answered glory to God.


This nice lady lost her beautiful wedding ring in the woods across the street from her home. But she wasn’t sure where. I searched using a detector with a small coil so I could check in weeds, brush and around trees. It took about an hour to find it in some weeds it fell into, out of sight, next to a pine tree. The detector was telling me right where it was but I couldn’t see it. It had fallen down to soil level in a tight clump of weeds. She couldn’t believe I found if. I wa happy too because it could have been anywhere. It was quite different from a beach search.
This young ladies ring fell in the sand when a table is was set on got bumped. It must have been a serious bump because it flew beyond where they thought it would be. After searching the area they thought it would be, I increased the search area and found it within inches outside of the original area. The lady was very thankful and I was glad I could make her day.
This young couple recently married was in Orange Beach Alabama vacationing with the family when her wedding slipped off her finger in the water. The Gulf was pretty calm that day making for a fairly easy search. After about an hour and a half the ring was recovered. I love it when the whole family is on the beach in anticipation of recover and clap and cheer when I pulled the ring out of the water. 
Beautiful Men’s wedding band recovered from the Gulf at Orange Beach. It was in about waist deep water and the area was large. It took awhile but ended successful. 
Found this ring while looking for another. Asked around and heard of a fellow who lost a ring about two week before. Was able to get his name and contact him for a return. He sent me a picture of his lost ring and that is indeed the one I found. Ring was mailed back to him. Some times we just get lucky.

Sara was vacationing at Ft. Walton Beach Florida when she lost her wedding rings. She was able to find the wedding band but not the engagement ring. She had returned home to Illinois when she called asking if I could find her lost ring. She sent me an aerial with an outline of the area she lost it and a photo of her engagement ring. The next morning i searched the area and found her ring within 8 or 10 feet of where she predicted but was 5 or 6 inches deep. The next day Sara and I did a face time call with the folks at my local UPS store and sent her ring home secure, insured and with in person delivery. Sara was very happy her ring is back where it belongs!
