Catherine called to see if I was available to come to the beach and help find her husband’s lost wedding ring. They had been playing football near the dunes when the ball struck Eric’s hand, sending the ring flying into the sand. Despite searching on their own, they couldn’t find it and decided to give me a call.
About 20 minutes later, I met them on the beach, and they showed me the area where they believed the ring had come off. I carefully searched the spot but came up empty. While talking with everyone who had been there that day, one of their friends mentioned she thought the ring may have landed about 20 feet farther south from where we were searching.
I walked over to the new area and started detecting. Within moments, I got a strong signal. Sure enough, she had been standing almost directly over the missing ring the whole time! A quick scoop of sand revealed the wedding band, bringing an immediate smile and a huge sense of relief.
Recoveries like this are a great reminder that every little detail matters. Sometimes just one extra piece of information is all it takes to turn a frustrating loss into a happy ending.
Julie got in touch with me about helping recover her husband’s lost wedding ring. She explained that they had a very good idea where it had been lost. He had placed the ring in the cupholder of their beach chair for safekeeping, and when they packed up for the day, they accidentally left it behind. Fortunately, they knew the exact location where they had been sitting.
I told Julie I’d head right over. We met at the dune walkover, and she had the area marked perfectly. After she showed me the spot, I fired up my detector and began searching. Just a few swings later, I got a solid signal. One scoop of sand later, her husband’s wedding ring was safely in my scoop.
Julie was amazed at how quickly I was able to recover the ring, and it was another happy ending to what could have been a very stressful day at the beach.
At Julie’s request, no photos were taken or shared to protect her family’s privacy.
Alexandra sent me a text asking if I could come to Loveladies on LBI and recover her custom ring that she had lost in the lagoon. She explained that the tide was coming in quickly, the water was about chest-deep, and she believed the rings were only about 10 feet off the dock.
Knowing the rising tide could make the recovery much more difficult, I jumped in the truck and headed straight there.
When I arrived, Alexandra showed me the exact area where she thought the rings had slipped off. I entered the water and thoroughly searched the entire area she pointed out but came up empty. I expanded my search 15 to 20 feet in every direction, then worked closer to the dock and even a little farther out, but still nothing.
With the tide continuing to rise, I decided to push out as far as I safely could. The water was now about chin-deep, and I was barely able to keep my footing. Roughly 15 feet farther from the dock than where Alexandra had originally indicated, my detector gave off a beautiful high tone. I knew immediately I had found one of her custom rings.
Because the water was so deep, I had to drag my scoop back into shallower water before I could dig through it. A moment later, there it was—Alexandra’s custom ring safely sitting in the scoop.
Alexandra was incredibly lucky. Had the ring been just a little farther out in deeper water, the recovery would have had to wait until I returned with my scuba gear. Timing was everything, and thankfully we got there just in time.
Joe had gone to the waters edge & felt his ring slip from his finger into the shallow waters. The Stoney base swallowed the ring within seconds & it was gone! Sue, his mother was very keen to see the ring back so called me. I took the day off from work & met them at the most picturesque location I had seen f
or a while! The tide was low so I begun a wide area search working outwards. After 15 mins , close to the sea up came the ring. It was clear by the smiles how pleased they were to see it back on his finger. They made a kind donation to the Margaret Green Animal Charity.
Sophie & recent husband were most upset to find Chloe had lost her wedding band given to her by her Grandmother. Chloe keeps chickens and lost it one day when feeding them. They had been married only a month so only added to their sense of loss. I tried fruitlessly in one area they were sure it was lost until I thought I’d try the Chicken coop itself. Detecting a pile of grain the sound was given by the detector and after a short rummage up came the ring. They made a kind donation to the Margaret Green Animal Charity.
Chloe & fiancé had been paddle boarding in the knee deep waters of Sandbanks in Poole, Dorset. Fortunately for them they had been using a tracker to monitor where they had been boarding. When they realised they had lost the ring they hoped the tracker would help locate the ring but alas it didn’t . When I arrived we searched loosely along their route & just before I was about to give up the detector gave the reassuring noise of gold
. They were very pleased to get it back & made a kind donation to the Margaret Green Animal Charity.
I received a text message from George on Monday, July 6th with the following: “Hey Jeff, I lost my wedding ring this past weekend in the lake playing with a beach ball…can you come and look for it?” The lake he is referring to is Castle Rock Lake. Buckhorn State Park is uniquely situated on a large peninsula that juts out into Castle Lake. It is an artificial lake on the Wisconsin River and is the 4th largest in our beautiful state. It is known for its hiking and swimming, sandy beaches, pontoon rentals, tubing at Sandy Shores, and live music at waterfront restaurants.
George and his son Ben, who made the journey with him, ventured 3 ½ hours from the Chicago metro area, in the very early hours of Tuesday morning, July 7th to meet at the park entrance. George was very concerned about finding his wedding ring.
George was very clear with instructions to me where he lost his ring playing with the beach ball. In short order, the ring was recovered and placed back on his finger. George was more than ecstatic that his ring was found. He will be celebrating his 20th wedding anniversary this fall with his beautiful bride and would have been crushed if the ring had not been recovered. We wish him and his bride the best for the next twenty years.

Jenna had just gotten a new oura ring. It just so happens that alot of the outlets in her house are just above the hvac registers. While taking it off the charger she dropped it, yes directly into the vent. Her house has flexible duct lines and it rolled deep between the floor joists. I had to run my snake camera 6′ down just to see it. After a few experiments with different made tools I was able to extract it. My camera on my endoscope died just as we retrieved it. So no video. Always an honor to help someone out and experience a new challenge along the way.
