Issac called me requesting my assistance on recovering his crashed drone. He had just got a new DJI Air 3 drone and was enjoying some first flights over Lake Sacajawea. He had collected some nice video of the water fountain in the lake. After a short bit of time flying he shifted his focused to a small island when his flight quickly fell apart. His drone got to close to some tree branches causing the Air 3 drone to bob up and down in the sky as it tried to fly away it just got smacked by some thicker branches causing a total lost of control as it cartwheeled into the ice cold lake below. 

A very disappointed Issac and his friend attempted to try to search for the drone wading out into the ice cold lake with nothing more than a pair of sweat pants on. Issac admitted he didn’t last long in the freezing cold water and had to quickly get out. They even brought out a kayak breaking the thin layer of ice and tried looking for anything resembling the drone but they quickly discovered the visibility of the lake waters to be extremely poor. A hook and rope was purchased with efforts throwing the rig in the lake and dragging the line in hoping to snag the bird sadly ended up with no success.

As a very disappointing last chance effort Issac ran a Google search looking to “hire a diver” and landed on The Ring Finders directory. He quickly found the Seattle Ring Hunter and placed a call for help. 

Once we started our initial phone conversation I collected all the details I could and was encouraged to hear he had captured the last known GPS coordinate location from the DJI controller. This peaked my interest as I am always very curious to find out how close the GPS will get me to the lost target.

When Issac initially called me the temperatures were close to 18 F so I told him we would have to wait for slightly warmer weather however I assured him I would not forget his mission. It worked out that there was a slight break in the rain with a bit of warming temperatures towards the end of the week so we set a plan to reassess the conditions the night before. After a few days we reviewed our options and the green light was a go for operation “Crashed DJI Drone Lake Sacajawea Search and Recovery”. Issac also informed me that there was still some light snow on the grounds and thin ice on the lake. I still agreed to come down with the appropriate cold water dive gear.

Come along for another exciting search as the Seattle Ring Hunter battles the winter shenanigans of Jack Frost and the Winter Warlock.

  • from Madison (New Jersey, United States)
Contact:

WHIPPANY, N.J. — During yesterday’s snowstorm in NJ, a couple contacted me late in the evening after they lost their keys in the snow. Early this morning, I headed out to the field where they last saw them and began gridding out the field.  Despite the snow and wind, 45 minutes into the search, the keys were located.  Happy to deliver this service to my neighbors and ecstatic that I was able to get this couple back on their way.

Lost Wedding Ring Found in Wooster, Ohio!

  • from Wooster (Ohio, United States)
Contact:

On Tuesday, October 10th I received a text from Rick in Wooster, Ohio who said he found my name on The Ring Finders. He said he believed he lost his wedding ring while planting garlic in his garden on Sunday and asked me to give him a call, if I thought I could help. I called him that afternoon, he gave me all the details and we set up a time the next day for me to come find his ring. On Wednesday, when we pulled into Rick’s driveway, he was ready for us! We exchanged introductions as we pulled out our gear and within a few minutes we were heading across the lawn to his garden. He showed us exactly which rows of his garden he had been working on when he believed he lost the ring and we got to work! Rick stood off to the side of the garden as we worked our way down the rows. The first few hits were bits of scrap metal, which I held up for Rick to see before dropping in my pouch and then, as I turned around to start down the third row, BAM! There it was, that perfect signal! I bent down and plucked Rick’s ring from the soil and held it out to him exclaiming, « and here it is! » Rick was so excited and couldn’t believe how quickly we found it. (The entire hunt took less than five minutes!) As I handed him his ring, he asked if he could give me hug. « Absolutely! », I said. We chatted for a few minutes, snapped a few pictures and he told us we’d gotten him out of the doghouse! As metal detectorists, these are the moments we live for!

Eileen and Rick

The ring back on Rick’s finger!

Ring Finder Recovers Lost Wedding Band for Famous Local Chef in Kensington, Maryland

  • from Washington (District of Columbia, United States)
Contact:

Chef Tony’s very handsome tungsten carbide wedding band that was successfully recovered by long time friend and professional metal detectorist Brian Rudolph.

Chef Tony, owner and master chef of Chef Tony’s Fresh Seafood Restaurant and Chef Tony’s Seafood at Amalfi in Bethesda and Rockville, Maryland, smiling and proudly displaying his very special wedding ring that was lost just feet away from where he sits.

Brian Rudolph, Lost Item Recovery Specialist (Land, Water, Sand, Snow, Leaves, Cliffs, Houses & Vehicles) Will Find Your Lost Keepsake! Call ASAP (301) 466-8644!

I received a call from Tony who lost his wedding ring somewhere outside the front of his house. It was raining outside and as he neared the front door, his size 13.5 tungsten carbide ring slid off and disappeared somewhere to the left of the concrete porch area.

Tony knew of my metal detecting skills and small business called METAL DETECTING ADVENTURES INC because we have been friends for nearly 50 years. We went to elementary school, junior high and high school together. Tony is also known as the famous Chef Tony who owns two very prominent restaurants in Bethesda, Maryland (Chef Tony’s Fresh Seafood Restaurant) and Rockville, Maryland (Chef Tony’s Seafood at Amalfi). Everyone across town knows Tony and or heard of his amazing cuisines! If you live in the Delmarva area, dining at Chef Tony’s restaurants is a must!

Tony’s wife Sonia and their son went out looking for the lost ring sometime the next day or two. Unfortunately all of their search efforts came up empty handed. At first, Sonia thought about buying a metal detector, but then Tony mentioned my services and expertise and the idea was settled to contact me about the loss of the ring.

After just a few minutes of metal detecting a long side the concrete porch foundation, search in the soft ground, and checking in and around multiple flower pots, I was able to successfully recover Tony’s very special sentimental wedding band!

Tony was not surprised at the quick ring recovery just as I am never surprised how tasty and satisfying it is to dine at Chef Tony’s restaurants!

Lost Engagement Ring and Wedding Band Gardening in London, ON

  • from Brampton (Ontario, Canada)
Contact:


Amanda and her Husband Andrew were gardening in their front yard. Amanda had to remove her wedding rings because they were digging into her skin inside her gloves.

At one point Amanda and Andrew had company stop by and Amanda was playing with their dog. She soon realized she lost her rings and they purchased a metal detector with no luck!

I ended down to London after work. Did my introduction video interview.

I then started in the front yard where they were cleaning weeds out of a rock garden area. Shortly after starting the grid search with my Minelab Manticore machine, I stopped and decided to go back to my car for my Minelab Equinox 800 as it had the small sniper coil on it.

As I headed back to my car I spotted with my eagle eyes both her rings sitting in the grass!

I was about to re-start the grid search and proceeded to show them how the hand held pin pointer works and SURPRISE… I pulled the rings from the grass!!

The surprise was absolutely priceless from her shock, to feeling I’ll, to extreme happiness!!

I love ‘quickies’ but I absolutely love the ‘shock and awwww’ moments!!

HAPPY ENDINGS!

Ring lost while proposing

  • from Fernandina Beach (Florida, United States)
Contact:

Got a text this morning with this story.  On a weekend trip to Amelia Island, my boyfriend and I walked down to the beach at the State Park.   It was on Sunday around noon and we were about to leave.  He took me down to the beach and went to take the ring out of his pocket to propose to me but the ring snagged on his his shirt and went flying.   I couldn’t believe this, he took the ring out and it snagged and now was lost.   We contacted the ranger who looked with a metal detector and we even went and bought a cheap metal detector.   We looked for 6 plus hours and gave up.  We had to get back to West Virginia.  Melissa found me on Google this morning and text me her story.   I drove to the location and within 5 minutes I got a good signal.  One scoop in the sand and the ring was found.  Her future in-laws are headed to Florida and will pick it up on their way down.   Now they have a happy proposal story.

Metal Detecting Minnesota Ring Recovery Lost ring Found.

  • from Twin Cities Metro (Minnesota, United States)
Contact:

Keith, his family and friends were out for a pontoon ride on a local lake in Minnesota. They decide to stop at an island that boasted a sandy and shallow water swim/play area. He was in the water about waist deep playing football with the kids and playing with the pup. They finished up and boarded the pontoon when he noticed his wedding band was missing from his finger. They got back in the water and searched to no avail. Fast forward a day a two and Keith’s buddy Jeff was searching the internet on ways to find the ring, when he came across the « theringfinders » website. Jeff told Keith about the website, and he called me right away. We discussed the best way to go about the search and decided scuba diving, « though it was pretty shallow water » would be the best chance of recovery. We decided to do a grid search using a 20-foot rope that Keith and Jeff held across the water, and I scuba/searched under the rope. As I finished one spot, they would move 6 feet and we kept this up for an hour or so until I got that awesome tone of Gold on my metal detector. Congrats on getting your ring back!!! Glad I could help out; it was nice meeting both of you. Thanks for the help on the grid search, it worked out perfectly.

Take Care –

Darrin

Lost White Gold Engagement Ring-Found!

  • from Chattanooga (Tennessee, United States)
Contact:

I received a text from Leslie on Monday afternoon concerning a lost engagement ring.  She had found me with an internet search.  As it was late in the day I told her I could come the next day, becase it was about a two hour drive from where I’m located.  I got to the site at around 11:00 AM Central Time.   The couple had been pulling a boat and pulled off into the parking lot of an old convience store that had been converted into another use.  As they got out to adjust the boat straps, (the ring had been placed in the shallow tray under the door handle), the ring somehow went flying.  They looked on the pavement and didn’t see it, but there was a grass strip between the pavement and a shallow ditch, then more grass just beyond the ditch.  I started my search in the grass strip, then the ditch, then just beyond the ditch.  Being this had been a convience store at one time I expected a lot of metal trash in the ground, and I was right.  She did have a metal detector that had been her grandfather’s, but was overwhelmed by the abundance of metal trash.  I searched slowly and methodically while listening for the white gold tone and looking for the target ID I typically get for white gold rings.  After searching the entire area, no ring.  Of course I found several pieces of foil.  I turned off my CTX detector, and was explaing the process, where I search the most likely area first, then expand the search area if the ring is not found, (a visual scan of the pavement was next).  At that time someone from the building, I’ll call him « Tom », came out and we explained what we were doing, and that a visual scan of the pavement was next.  He struck out towards the highway, and in around ten seconds I heard him call out, « is this it? »  He had found it around 10-12 feet from the edge of a busy highway!  The ring was intact, but had some minor damage where it looked as though it had been run over and stuck in the tire treads before dropping off just before the highway.  In a visual search, the more eyes the better.  All in all, another successful search!
