Ray with stick showing depth
On the last day of April, Scotty was fishing off the end of a pier when his new wedding band slipped into the water. He quickly noted where the ring had dropped in relation to the wooden structure. Because I was not available to search, I asked my friend Ray Jones to help. The depth off the fishing platform is about neck deep, depending on the tide. In spite of a current and low visibility, Ray was able to remove many misleading targets consisting of lead weights, fishing lures, coins, and other items. Even though he was wearing a wetsuit, Ray was unable to remain in the cold water and called off the search for that day.

I joined Ray for the next search. Because of conflicting schedules and storms, we were not able
Rob and Ray
to meet until June 2nd. I was the lucky one to find the ring, but it was truly a team effort.

For my detecting friends, the Tantalum ring had a 23 VDI on my Equinox with a Coiltek 10X5.
Don’t give up. Many of my clients have bought, borrowed, or rented a metal detector before calling me. Just because someone has a tool, it doesn’t mean they know how to use it. I use state of the art equipment, and I have thousands of hours of experience searching on land and underwater. If you have tried using a detector without success, please call to see if I can help

Rob and Ray were excellent throughout the entirety of this process. After loosing my ring I did a quick Google search and found The Ring Finders. A little apprehensive, I reached out to Rob. This ended up being a huge blessing. Rob being injured at the time linked me up with Ray. The next day Ray drove two and a half hours to begin the search for my ring. He faced cold water and a lot of objects in the water. After a long search we decided to try again another day. Central Virginia had a string of storms hit that made unsafe conditions. After nearly a month at the bottom of the Rappahannock River, I did not have much faith that my ring would be found with strong currents, tides, and an ever changing river bottom. Sure enough these two made it happen. These guys were great communicators, hard workers, and informative. I truly appreciate their efforts and am very pleased to say I have my wedding band back because of them. If you find yourself in a similar situation, I can not recommend them enough. 10 out of 10.
