Jason Connolly's Bio

I moved to Tampa in 1996 for college and fell in love with the many great things to do in the area and (of course) the nice weather! I started metal detecting during the pandemic as a way to get out of the house and get some exercise. I have enjoyed learning to use different machines and working parks, the beach and water. I have been successful finding and returning everything from rings and necklaces to keys and wallets. Seeing the joy that others feel when returning a missing item is the best part of metal detecting! I will do everything I can to return your missing item.
