  September 8th,  Krista who was vacationing here in Carlsbad San Diego contacted me when she noticed her lost gold wedding ring vanished at the beach somewhere. Fortunately I live above the beach there being only a 5 min walk, It was easy to arrive quickly upon the scene of the lost ring. Krista showed me an area in the dry sand where she thought it could be,,I scanned over it once & immediately told her Sorry it’s not here!

Only other possible area it could have fallen off was in the surf as she pointed towards beach goers bobbing up & down just passed the shore breaking waves.

My hopes to help her sank immediately knowing it was not possible to swing a metal detector wading in crashing overhead surf sets but to make things even worse, Is the (Timing). Being lost during a (Neap) low tide period on a sloped beach…This means I would not be able to conduct a search until a minus (King) tide period coming up in 6-7 days!

These are the toughest calls I receive. Having to tell someone I can not even attempt to find their ring for a week.!  I then explained & showed Krista the local San Diego tide charts on my phone assuring her I would come back when the timing was right & Mother Nature permitted.

Next Friday the 13th, Committed with Ambition as I made an Iced coffee at 10:30pm knowing the king low tide was finally arriving just after midnight so I geared up then walked down there.

   

Nearly 2hrs had gone by waiting & fighting the surf then finally the ocean tide backed away far out enough allowing me to get where she may of lost her gold ring 6 days prior. Not long afterwards facing a pitch Black Sea I miraculously recovered her special wedding band in less than a foot down in waist deep water!  She was so relieved the next day to have her gold ring back. The timing was perfect again as they were headed back home to Utah to end their California Vacation that very Saturday the 14th!!
