Good morning John, yup your needing a coffee soon.
Oh gzzzz just have to rub in again that you can find civil war relics lol. Lol on a serious note I hope you do well looking forward to seeing some awesome finds. In California I'm just mostly trying to load up on fishing stuff lol otherwise I don't think I'll ever find much of interest with my magnet. I don't use a super powerful one as of fear of getting it stuck on junk out here lol.
Lol I just noticed, auto correct is never my friend I type way to fast on my tiny phone keyboard lol.Good morning John, yup your needing a coffee soon.
I had the same fear. But it takes a powerful magnet for the contact point of most stuff does not cover the whole magnet. SO, i had a magnet rated for 500 pound. A 4"X8" magnet. I just ordered a double sided rated at 2650pound for both sides, or 1325 for each side. I may lose it but will be worth the effort.
I thought it was just a California greeting.
Mines just one sided I forget what mine is rated but was a 99 dollar one came with a nice box, 65 foot of rope. It can't put up super heavy stuff but gets the job done for what I look for out here. Got it stuck to the bridge because I let my mother try it and she did not listen to the keep it away from the railing lol. Though was able to slide the sucker off relatively easy. My mother and younger brother were fighting over whom would get to toss the magnet out was pretty funny.
Lol I mean it probably is but it was not intended by me in this caseI thought it was just a California greeting.
That is great doing it with your mom and brother. Good memories.
Yeah my brother and my mother and step dad normally will go out on weekends. I got my mother into metal detecting and now apparently magnet fishing. They like to drive around gold country so we do metal detecting and stuff as we do that. Always nice to stay close to family.
You are a good son. You should do well in life.
Just remember that things weigh less underwater.
Great informationMornin all.
If recalled correctly (there's always a chance...) , getting pooped meant water coming over the stern of a ship.

In naval architecture, a poop deck is a deck that forms the roof of a cabin built in the rear, or "aft", part of the superstructure of a ship.[1]
The name originates from the French word for stern, la poupe, from Latin puppis. Thus the poop deck is technically a stern deck, which in sailing ships was usually elevated as the roof of the stern or "after" cabin, also known as the "poop cabin". On sailing ships, the helmsman would steer the craft from the quarterdeck, immediately in front of the poop deck. At the stern, the poop deck provides an elevated position ideal for observation.[2]
On modern, motorized warships, the ship functions which were once carried out on the poop deck have been moved to the bridge, usually located in a superstructure.
