Experience and Professional Gear
Over the past two years, Cody has been actively detecting with Ontario Ring Recovery Services, bringing a sharp eye, patience, and professional expertise to every search.
Finding lost jewelry—especially small, delicate items like rings hidden in thick muck, shifting sand, or tall grass—requires more than just luck. It demands top-tier technology. To ensure the highest possible chance of success, Cody utilizes industry-leading, high-end equipment, most notably the Minelab Manticore.

Land, Water, and a Proven Track Record
Cody’s versatility is one of his greatest assets as a recovery specialist. His work spans multiple environments:
- Land Recoveries: Scouring backyards, parks, and historic sites with pinpoint precision.
- Shallow Water Recoveries: Braving lakes, rivers, and swimming spots where dropped items instantly sink beneath the surface.
Because of his meticulous grid methods and deep familiarity with his equipment, his success rate is remarkably high.
On the Move: Wolfe Island and Beyond
Based out of scenic Wolfe Island, Cody is never one to stay in just one place. While he frequently handles local calls, he is known to pack up his gear and travel regularly to the mainland.
When he crosses over, he frequently teams up to offer assistance and collaborate on recoveries with James & Ryan, lending his expertise to some of the toughest search operations in the region.
