I received a call from Fernando about 4:30pm and he told me that his wife of five months Kenza had lost her beautiful Cartier 18k gold wedding ring in the water at Honeymoon Island State Park throwing a football to her husband. Fortunately, some nearby beachgoers told them about my free metal detecting service.
I was able to begin the search a little after 5pm knowing that I would only have about two hours until one of our beautiful sunsets. Fernando and Kenza’s son Samy was fishing in the search area and at one point I was able to recover a fishing lure he had lost in the water! After searching for about an hour and a half I had only recovered a quarter and the lure and then I hit a promising target about waist deep that I thought could have been a penny. When I pulled my scoop out of the water, Fernando came over and saw that I found Kenza’s heavy gold wedding ring!! Kenza was speechless for just a moment and then she was overcome with joy! I was just happy that I was able to find it before dark although I would have come back the next morning to search again. We watched another beautiful sunset and I thanked God for answered prayers!🙏😎

Before Dave began to hit some golf balls at the driving range, he removed his wedding band and put in his pocket. Dave also put a towel in the same pocket. At some point he pulled the towel out of his pocket to dry his hands and then realized later that his wedding band must have come out as well and fallen into the grass. Dave searched for his ring but was unable to find it. He found me on social media, we set up a search with my metal detector, and after about 10 minutes Dave’s gold wedding band was back on his finger! Contact me if I can help you!

Karina was in her car parked at her church and decided to put some lotion on her hands before she went inside. She took off her beautiful gold rings, one with an emerald and diamonds and the other with rubies and diamonds, placed them in her lap, applied the lotion and then got out of the car, flipping the rings off of her lap into the thick grass parking lot. When she realized what had happened, Karina began to search the grass frantically with her hands, hoping she could locate the rings this way. Some boys who attended the church came over to help her search by hand but the rings could not be found. Karina decided to purchase an inexpensive metal detector to search on her own and then someone at work told her about my metal detecting service.
Karina contacted me, we set up a search and when I arrived Karina pulled her metal detector as well as a hand held pinpointer out of her car and asked if she could search as well. I suggested that she just use the pinpointer for the time being so her detector would not interfere with mine. Karina’s sister Naira was there as well, looking on anxiously. After searching the thick grass for about 30 minutes, I hit a promising target, pushed down into the grass with my pinpointer and out popped the emerald ring! Karina was so excited that she rushed over, dug through the grass with her hands and found the ruby ring herself! The smile on her face tells the rest of the story!

Kyle was tossing a football in shallow water at Honeymoon when he felt his wedding ring fly off of his finger. Kyle is right handed but was throwing with his left hand because of an injury. This 18k gold ring had been purchased in Dubai several years before as a replacement for another ring that had been lost! Fortunately, Kyle received my contact information from the front gate personnel at Honeymoon and we set up a search. Kyle met me at the beach, showed me the area where he thought the ring went into the water and then left to pick up his daughter Evelyn. By the time Kyle returned to the beach with Evelyn, his wedding ring had been scooped out of the wet sand and then returned to his finger! Kyle and wife Danielle were extremely happy but Evelyn appears to be still thinking it over!

While I was searching for another ring lost on North Beach, I received a call from Carol who had lost her wedding ring in shallow water at South Beach on Honeymoon. Since I was so close, we met up in about five minutes and Carol told me that she and her niece Emma were visiting from Baltimore. After they had arrived at the beach, Carol had taken off her ring at the edge of the water to hand it to Emma to take back to where they had set their beach things. During the exchange, the ring dropped into the very shallow water and disappeared! I began my detecting search in the area where they thought the ring had dropped and by that time with the tide going out I was searching wet sand. After about 30 minutes, I had found and scooped out Carol’s beautiful ring!😎

A few months ago I looked for a lost zirconium ring at Honeymoon for Mike but was unable to find it. Recently a metal detecting friend named Eric gave me a zirconium ring that he had found but as it turns out, this ring was not Mike’s.

If you have lost a zirconium ring and can tell me what’s inscribed inside, it will be returned to you. Please like and share!

Kyla contacted me while I was out of town to tell me that she had her ring come off of her finger while chasing down her cat in her back yard and she had been unable to locate it. When I returned, I searched the area in Kyla’s back yard where she thought the ring came off for about an hour with no luck. Then Kyla asked me to remove a board that was leaning on her shed and search behind it because it had been moved around during her search. When I did, Kyla was the first to see her ring nestled in the leaves! Who would have thought it would have ended up there? I should not be surprised!🤣😎

Guy and his wife Tenice were enjoying a Sunday afternoon at SunWest Park beach near Hudson. Guy was standing about waist deep in the water and when he waved his hand to shoo away some seagulls one of his rings flew off of his finger! Guy had bought this ring for himself as a graduation gift about four years when he received his associates degree and had promised to pass it along to one of his nephews. Guy frantically tried to find it by sight and by feeling around in the bottom sand with his toes but was unable to locate it. Guy later found me on The Ring Finders website and we planned to meet at the park early Monday morning as I wanted to make sure we searched before any other metal detectorists did. After meeting up with Guy, he took me out into the water where he thought he had lost his ring. About 30 minutes into the search, I hit a promising target and out of the sandy bottom popped Guy’s ring in my beach scoop! Guy was speechless at first and then overjoyed! I was pretty happy about it too! Congratulations to Guy for the ring find as well for the baby to come this fall and good luck with your marketing business!😎

I don’t do a restaurant review often but when I do… My wife Jan and I had lunch at Marguerite’s (next to Dunedin Library) a few days ago. Jan ordered the Big Italian sandwich with macaroni salad while I had the Roast Beef and Brie sandwich with the village pasta salad. Delicious food and excellent service provided by Emily!! 👍👏😎

Steven, Stephanie and children Alyssa and Tyler were visiting Honeymoon about a week ago and enjoying a great beach day until Steven realized his wedding ring which had been placed in his shirt pocket for safekeeping had fallen into the sand when he picked up his shirt. Nicole under a nearby umbrella knew about my metal detecting service and suggested to Steven that he contact me. It took me about 30 minutes to get to the loss site and 30 seconds to find the ring! Son Tyler who is not pictured removed the ring from my beach scoop and ran off to tell his mother the good news! Happy Father’s Day to Steven and all dads!😎

A few days ago, John and Stephanie were enjoying a day at the beach. John was doing some paddle boarding and his wedding ring slipped off of his finger into the water. Before they left the beach, someone told them about my free metal detecting service so Stephanie contacted me with the details of the loss location. I searched a few hours in the water that day but was unsuccessful. I went again the next day and found and returned a small beach sand sifter that a little girl had lost in the water. About an hour later and working my way into shallower water, I was able to scoop John’s ring out of the sand in knee deep water! Before I left the beach, I was asked to find an Oura ring that a young lady named Katy had lost in very shallow water while holding her two year old. I was able to find that ring as well but unfortunately her family had already left Honeymoon and have not yet sent me their contact info! I will update with the return. 💍💍🙌😎
