I've been magnet fishing for about 2 years now. When I first started, the hobby wasn't that well-known here in the U.S. Lately, however, it seems to be growing in popularity.
As I've said before, it really is an underrated hobby. It doesn't demand much preparation, it's easy to do with your kids and depending on what you're hoping to find, it doesn't take near as much research as metal detecting.
Anyways, I made a ridiculous video testing out a cone shaped magnet that was sent to me by the guys at Brute magnetics. They are a small business in north Georgia. I'm not sponsored by them in any way. I'm just sharing this here because the question I get asked more than any question on youtube is "Where is the best place buy a magnet?" From what I'm hearing, most people are going out a buying 70 lb pull magnets from Harbor Freight, only to realize after their first outing that the magnet is not strong enough. The magnet used in this video is a rare earth magnet and it's pretty strong, as you'll see in this goofy video.
If I seem a little touchy with my daughter in the video, I was. I was on the verge of giving her a stinger splash off the back deck because we were running out of shooting light.
Anyways, hope those interested in this new hobby enjoy the video and perhaps learn of at least one place to purchase the right magnet for the job.
By the way, this is not the strongest magnet Brute sells.
