Got a call to go search for a wedding set in a lake. Went there and looked 3 hours before work today. Didn't find it so I went to work. I went back tonight after dinner with my youngest daughter along to swim. After 2 more hours and still no ring I asked the lady to come out in the lake and get a better look from out there when she had lost it. I continued my grid and got a great mid tone. I said say a prayer this one sounds good! I seen it in the scoop and slipped it on my finger and held it up aand asked her ( does it look like this ) She started to hyper ventilate, cry, and hugs too! She was so happy to have her wedding set back just 4 days before her anniversary! Both are 14K white gold, and there are a total of 19 diamonds and 5 saphires. Once I settled her down, I told her
that her reaction is why I do this!

Way to go Mike. I have a new Tesoro Tiger Shark I am dying to play with in the water. I hope to do some freshwater hunting this summer. Glad you were able to get the rings back to her. Sweet reaction.
