Early in July this year, while my husband and I were vacationing in Ontario, Canada, we did some shore fishing at White Lake. A boat came in at the boat ramp we were fishing near, and a group of fellows got out of their boat and started looking all around the ground. After about 20 minutes or so, I asked them what the problem was. One fellow stated that his buddy had lost his hearing aid. They figured he'd lost it when he put on his polaroid glasses, right before they got into their boat to go fishing. They had looked all around and were about to give up, so I asked them if there was any metal in the hearing aid. They said, the only thing on the hearing aid that was metal was the tiny battery. I went and got my ole Sovereign GT. I had the fellow take off his remaining hearing aid and tested it with my metal detector. It wouldn't detect it at first, so I set it to "All Metal" and then had to adjust the sensitivity. That worked and I was able to hear a signal for the remaining hearing aid. I started searching and within 10 minutes or so, heard a sweet sound -- It was the lost hearing aid! They asked me, "What do we owe you?". I said, "Nothing, just glad to help". Found out these fellows were all from Michigan, not far from where we live (small world). Ended up being a good day for that fellow, as he was profoundly deaf. We didn't do so good fishing, but it was still a really good day! Laura - Michigan, USA
