Magnet fishing from pontoon boat question

[pulltabfelix]

I would like to do magnet fishing from my pontoon boat. I was thinking it would be nice to lower a realtime HD video camera down and hopefully locate good stuff visually.

Either on a 23" extension pole or just attach the camera and camera video feed line to the rope down to the magnet.

Any thoughts experience with this type of project?

thanks

My friend and I went out today on my pontoon boat and I asked him the same question. It would be nice to actually see your magnet in the water. I think it would work better if the camera was mounted on its own pole or mount because you can't control the magnets movement on a rope. Today was our first attempt and we got skunked but it was fun. We will try again when the water is clearer.
