Contact me for all your metal detecting and recovery needs! My name is Mike McInroe…Central Florida Ring Finder at 321-363-6029. On land, in the water, the grass, sand, in cars, in homes…rings, keys, chains, phones, property markers, etc…

Eileen called me and asked if I could help her find a lost Mercedes Benz vehicle fob/key and she was quite sure it was somewhere in one of two cars. Apparently she had unloaded some things from one car to another and in the process she misplaced the only fob/key that she had for her older Mercedes. She looked numerous times through the car, her purse, the trunk, under the seats and everywhere she could possibly imagine…but she could not find her lost key. When she called me I could hear the stress and discouragement in her voice and I assured her I would come out and conduct a thorough search of both vehicles. I arrived Saturday morning and got right to work going through both cars with a fine tooth comb and my extra strong flashlight. After 40 minutes…NOTHING! Eileen thought that maybe someone walked by while she was moving things back and forth and possibly picked her key up off of the ground. Or maybe a crow picked it up and flew off with it! As a final effort was made to locate her lost key I sat in her older vehicles driver seat and reached up and moved the double sun visors that covered the front window and I noticed something moved…right where the two visors overlap…and sure enough there was her fob…nestled down between the two visors. The fob/key was hidden in the perfect hiding place…not visible from either side! Eileen was over joyed and how I thank God for helping me to be able to find her lost key!

Cocoa Beach Florida Lost gold wedding ring found by Ring Finder Mike McInroe

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



Andy was visiting friends here in Cocoa Beach, Florida and after a day out fishing in the Atlantic Ocean they pulled their boat into the loading dock area and Andy decided he needed to rinse the fish smell off of his hands. So he laid down on the dock and while rinsing his hands in the warm salt water his gold wedding ring slipped off of his finger and disappeared into the depths below the dock! Of course he was shocked and immediately waded out into the water but soon realized the water was way too deep to even try and attempt a dive. Someone suggested calling a Ring Finder and they contacted Al Zenker, a local member of theringfinders.com but unfortunately he does not do deep water recoveries and he recommended they call me. I met Andy and his friends at the dock and checked the depth to be sure my Blu3 Nemo dive system would allow me to search the bottom effectively and it measured just over 10 and a half feet deep so I was good to go!

I suited up and set a PVC marker pole at the spot where Andy’s ring fell into the water. Visibility was just over a foot and as I descended to the bottom I immediately got a couple of signals. A rusty screw driver, a deep signal and then a sharp clear signal and my hand felt something round and smooth and I slipped it on my index finger. As I ascended to the surface I came out of the water finger first and watched Andy’s face. He was visibly in awe that I had actually found it and was so thankful and grateful to have his lost ring back once again!

Lost gold ring in the sand at Ormond Beach, Florida…Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



This ring recovery began late Friday evening when I received a desperate text from a young lady who while talking on the phone made a random gesture and her very sentimental ring fell off of her hand and disappeared into the sand at her feet. Her father and sister immediately began running their fingers through the sand but somehow they could not seem to be able to find the lost ring. This was a very special ring which was given to Jasmine when she was 10 years old by her grandmother and Jasmine wears it all the time! Having recently lost a little weight her ring was just a bit loose! Jasmine’s father purchased a couple of small kids dipping nets thinking maybe that would help but no matter what they tried…nothing seemed to help. Someone suggested they call one of The Ring Finders and that is how they got my number. It was almost midnight when Jasmine called so by the time I gathered my equipment and made the drive it was getting on to 1:30am and thankfully they were able to accurately mark the exact area where she dropped her ring. It only took a minute to get the sweet sound of gold from my Deus 2 metal detector and I motioned for Jasmine to come and assist in locating her own lost ring by using my trusty Garrett pin pointer. As we knelt there in the sand and watched the little flashing light and listened to the beeping sound as she moved it closer to her lost ring…it was a moment of sheer joy as Jasmine gently picked up her ring and held it close with mixed emotions! What an honor it was to help this beautiful young lady and her family and to see the relief it brought them!

Lost cell phones, cash, credit cards and BMW fob in the Wekiva River , Orlando, Florida…found and returned to owner.

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:



As a good friend of mine always says, « Don’t waste time renting or borrowing a metal detector if you have never used one. Especially if your lost item is important to you. Call or contact an experienced metal detector expert. »

Deondre and his friend had rented some kayaks for the day and they both had secured their iphones in « waterproof » cases with lanyards and as they paddled down the river they came to a rough area and somehow they tipped their kayak and over they went. Only Deondre did not have his lanyard over his head and his brand new iphone slipped into the water and immediately disappeared. His friend called me and I met them an hour later and paddled out to the exact spot and searched for 3 hours but could not find Deondre’s lost cell phone…but I was able to recover an old water logged ziplock bag with all the contents still intact but completely soaked!

When I got home I cleaned everything up in fresh clean water and put a fan on and left it for 2 days. The money dried nicely and the fob was very dry as well and the credit cards would for sure be canceled and the iphones were…well one was toast and had swollen up and the other looked in very good condition still. So I plugged it in and it amazingly started charging but it was locked and the screen would come on but would not allow me to retrieve any information…even the Medical contacts. I tried looking on Google to see if I could find the person whose name was on the credit cards but there were just too many people with the same name so I resorted to calling the BMW dealer and asked if anyone had reported missing such a fob and when I mentioned the card holders name they said it matched someone in their system and I was given an email address and that info ended up being the husband of the young lady who lost the whole bag of goodies over a year ago!! They were shocked to hear that I wanted to return their lost iphones, credit cards, 114 dollars in cash and a BMW fob! It is always a real pleasure to return something and have a part in seeing the joy and surprise on peoples faces!

Lost ring in the water, Daytona Beach, Florida…found by Florida ring finder!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Rachel, from Alabama, was vacationing in Daytona Beach and one afternoon her and her family were in waist deep Atlantic ocean water hitting a volleyball back and forth and she felt her ring come off of her finger and watched as it disappeared in the waves. She was devastated and tried frantically to find it and after awhile someone spotted a man metal detecting along the beach. They approached the man, Wayne was his name, and asked if he could help them find Rachel’s lost silver and turquoise ring. Wayne tried his best but for some reason he could not locate it. Thoughtfully he asked Rachel for her contact number just in case he happened to find it at a later date and that gave Rachel some hope…but not much for she thought surely she would never see her ring again.

Ten days later I decided to hit the beach and do some metal detecting in the water and I often go to Daytona Beach and randomly pick a beach to hunt and on this day I chose the waters in front of the Hilton and the Club Wyndam Ocean Walk area. I usually like to detect in the water and on that particular day I found a couple of rings, coins and a few junk ear rings. During the day I spotted two other guys metal detecting and struck up a conversation with them and as is the custom we always ask one another… »Have you found anything good today? » So I pulled out my finds and when Wayne saw the silver and turquoise ring he said, « Hey, I think I know the lady who lost that ring! » And sure enough later that evening Wayne sent me the young lady’s phone number and she confirmed it was indeed her lost ring! How cool is that! So a few days later I boxed up Rachel’s ring and put it in the mail! She was thrilled to have her ring back and her beautiful smile says it all!

Lost Wedding Ring at New Symrna Beach, Florida……Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Shawn sent me a short e-mail stating that he lost his white gold wedding band at the beach and ended by saying, « This has caused great problems! » I responded the next morning and assured him that I would definitely try and help him find his ring. I asked a few questions about the details and what he remembered about where, when and how he felt he might have lost it. Shawn said that he and two of his best friends had lunch at the Breakers Restaurant in New Symrna Beach and afterwards headed out onto the beach to throw the football around and enjoy the water. It wasn’t long before Shawn realized that his wedding ring was missing. He desperately started walking back and forth looking along the waters edge to see if he could catch a glimpse of his gold ring. He even coaxed a few good hearted strangers to assist in the search but to no avail!
Before going home Shawn was able to file a report with the beach patrol–just in case someone found his ring and turned it in.
Later that night Shawn found theringfinders.com web site and sent me his first e-mail. It took four hours anddscf25771dscf2573-001 two searches to narrow down the exact area where Shawn and his buddies were tossing the football, but after doing a very tight grid search pattern I was finally able to uncover his ring. I immediately called Shawn and told him I had found his ring and he could not believe it! We met later that evening and he was almost speechless that someone he had never met before would actually look for, find and return his ring to him.
It was truly an honor and privilege to help reunite Shawn with his lost wedding ring!
Maybe you’ve lost something!
Call me or send me an e-mail—ASAP!

Lost Diamond ring in Chuluota lake, Florida….Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Sunday morning I received an e-mail from Sonya asking if there was any possible way I could help her find her Diamond Pave wedding ring.  Apparently on Saturday she was helping put the boats into the dock area when all of a sudden her ring slipped off of her finger and dropped straight down into the murky water.  Without  hesitation Sonya jumped right in and immediately started to feel around for her ring. The bottom was full of small one inch size clam shells and sticks and such making it impossible to find her ring.  She tried using a mask and underwater lights but still could not locate her precious ring.

I assured Sonya that her ring was there and that the chances of finding it were very, very good!  So after church with my family and a quick lunch I drove out to meet Sonya and her family.  As she showed me the exact area where the ring fell into the water I slipped my scuba boots on and with my scoop and Tiger Shark in hand I lowered myself into the water.  The first couple of targets were elusive as the bottom was very uneven and loaded with small clam shells and debris.  My Tesoro Tiger Shark sounded off on a wrench, some assorted nuts and bolts and the occasional nail.  At this point I figured it was a matter of simply eliminating all the targets in the 6 foot area and sooner or later I would find her ring.  And sure enough after 15 minutes of cleaning the area out–there in the scoop was Sonya’s ring!  The joy mixed with relief was obvious on Sonya’s face as she immediately slid the ring back on her finger where it belonged.

It truly was my honor and my privilege to help you Sonya and thank you so much for your generous reward.

Do you know where you lost something and want to try and have it found?  Give me a call or send me an e-mail!blue camera pictures 229blue camera pictures 225

Lost Wedding Ring in Daytona Beach, Florida surf…Found!!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Monday afternoon I received a call from Joe asking if I could possibly help him find his ring.  On Saturday he and his new bride of only 8 days, were swimming in the ocean when he felt his wedding ring slip off his finger and into the churning water!   He tried looking for his ring but the waves and surf were not co-operating and he soon gave up hope.  Two days later he found the ringfinders.com and gave me a call.  After hearing the details of how he lost it and the time of day I assured Joe that the chances of finding his ring were very good!

About an hour into the grid search my Dual Field detector gave off a nice clear signal and out popped Joe’s ring!  Joe was super thrilled to have his ring back and I was thanking God for another exciting and successful ring search!

Have you lost something valuable recently or not so recently?!!

Call me and let’s talk—there still may be hope!

I too really love my job!

Joe writes:  Mike is an absolute saint!  Lost my ring the first day of my honeymoon and I found Mike on Google!!  He spent a long time searching and surprised me with the ring!  He’s a great guy and does a respectable thing!  Thank you Mike!

Lost Wedding Ring in Florida Lake….Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Matt and his buddies made plans one Saturday to play some volleyball out in the middle of a small Orlando lake.  It was a hot day so the water felt cool and relaxing.  Unfortunately too relaxing as the combination of the cool water and activity made Matt’s wedding ring slide right off his finger and into the sandy bottom of the lake.  Matt and his friends spent the next few hours running their fingers through the murky sand trying desperately to find his ring!  Two days later Matt called me and we agreed on a time to meet and conduct a thorough search.

This search required the use of a canoe and kayak plus 4 pvc poles to mark the area in the 4 foot deep water.  Matt had to guess where the net would have been located as they used only temporary poles put in just for the day.  As I grid searched inside the 4 poles Matt maned the sifter.   I would dig each signal and dump the contents into the floating sifter and Matt would locate the target.  We found lots of junk in the soft sandy mud and after an hour of digging and sifting I heard Matt yell—« Here it is!!!! »

It is always a huge thrill to see the glint of gold in one’s scoop or sifter and this time it was extra exciting especially for Matt as he took part in the actual search and find!

Thanks Matt for your help in the search and I am so glad we were able to find your wedding ring.

Lost Wedding Ring in Daytona Beach Surf….Found!

  • from Sanford (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Late one evening I received an e-mail from Marc asking if I could find his lost wedding ring in the surf at Daytona Beach.  Earlier that day Marc and his family were enjoying the waves when he realized his wedding ring was missing.  He spent an hour or so looking in the sandy surf when he realized it would be next to impossible to actually find it without the use of a metal detector.  Unfortunatly they were to leave very early the next morning for Toronto, Canada and that’s what led him to theringfinders.com.  Thankfully Marc was able to give me excellent directions and a very precise idea as to where he lost the ring.  It took 2 visits to the beach and a total of 7 hours, but miracles do still happen!  The following week I was able to send the ring by UPS and Marc was reunited with his lost wedding band.

I just love it when people’s stories have a happy ending and when vacations are not dampened by the loss of something so special!

Thank you Marc for your generous reward and for passing on the word about theringfinders.com

Lost something recently?  The sooner you call the better!
