World record gold recovery?

I got a call two days ago about a ring in Lake Huron about 2 miles from my house. I agreed to come out this morning to search for it. He said he lost it on the sand bar in about 3 foot of water. Got to his parents house, put on my wetsuit and went out to the sand bar. laid down in the water turned on my machine and swung it 3 times before I got a signal. It was his wedding band. LOL he was coming out in the water as I was walking back, He said he saw something on my finger and thought NO WAY. Well it was his ring and returned. They paid me 40.00 for my 30 seconds of work and my gas. I sure wish I could be that lucky all the time,

Yesterday I found a silver ring and a merc. Kevin will have to post his finds BUT he finally out hunted me!!! Congrats again Kevin.

Gotta love it when a plan comes together. Had one last year go like that, said it was right there before the sandbar, in a few swings it was in the scoop and back with the newlywed owner.

North wind and growing waves on that lake means murky water and being sloshed around. NOT fun. If it would have been calm, I would have in a heartbeat. Glad I didn't actually. Got a call on the way home from the owners girlfriend. Needed me to work today.

Well done Sir! You are on fire. It's good that they rewarded you for your effort, it was good for everyone, how it should be! I've just been out testing my boat today, did a 5 mike trip today, all good. Waiting for my regs to be serviced then I'm there....
Good luck scuba detector

Last year I had a coworker lose his wedding ring in his front yard grass playing with his kids. They looked for off and on for a couple days for well over an hour or more. I told him I'd come over and look for it - he told me roughly where he thought he lost it so I turned on my T2 and on my second swing found it right away. He always gave me a hard time about being one of those "nerdy metal detectorists" at the beach. He doens't make fun of me anymore Good job on your find.
