    Hello! I was out on the Hiwassee River today and I lost my phone that was inside a waterproof case as I was falling out my tube by the funnel rapid I believe is what its called. A man there told us that there is someone who dives the HIwasse for fun to find lost items and return it to their owners. I'm wondering if you're the one he was referring to. Aa

  • @rivertreasureadventures
    @rivertreasureadventures4 жыл бұрын

    Hello! Yes, I do go go out there for look I for lost items and try to get what I can back to their owner! I'm sorry you lost your phone. You may be in luck if it really was the funnel rapids, because there are other people going out there as well, but I don't know who they are and if they try to find the owners or not, but with where the funnel rapids are, I don't think others are going out there, and if so, it's not often. Unfortunately though with the lock schedule vs my work schedule, it will be Saturday morning before I can make it back out there. I will definitely go, rain or shine and try to find your phone for you and get it back to you!

    Very cool what you guys do! The keys with the YMCA card belonged to my ex (fiance at the time). He also lost a pair of ray-bans (none of which y’all found) but we were so upset about losing the keys that we decided to forgo tubing and immediately deal with the situation at hand, as we were a long way from home and kind of stranded. Anyway, just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated you tracking him down. And the key fob still worked! Y’all are awesome!

If I can track down something someone lost, I will always do my best to find the owner so they can get whatever it is they lost, I just wish I was out there that same day they were lost so you wouldn't have been stranded.

    Hi! From central Ontario Canada! 🇨🇦. We enjoyed your video. You guys sure found some interesting stuff. I wondered if that circular thing was an old insert from a antique mason jar? It was really cool seeing the gar pike swimming around you! 😃 I bet that hat would wash up great. I’d wear it! 😉 And I think some of those lures are salvageable. Just need new split rings and hooks probably. Sent you a “YouBoat” and a big LIKE! 😁👍🏻

    Hey! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! Yeah, there can be some really interesting things. I've been doing this for years, just never filmed it until recently, so I'm anxious to find some of the crazier things found on camera. As far as the circular thing, I'm not sure. John believes it's part of some rafts to tie rope to them, but I've still yet to find anything about what they are online. I'm personally not much of a fisherman, but finding some pretty cool lures makes me want to try one day 😁 Thank you again, i really appreciate it!
