    Dumping Ground FOUND! - Magnet Fishing UK
    So im back in bishop stortford magnet fishing for treasure with a fishing magnet in the local river, this is the same river where i found an antique pistol.
    Bishop Stortford has a shallow river running through it and then widens up closer to the town centre where there are canal boats, i didnt think i would find much in the shallow river with my fishing magnet but boy was i wrong,i found 2 bikes, cash box, barrel of a gun and various other things.
    The bikes had been thrown off bridges into the river from the bridges but i managed to remove them out of the water with my fishing magnet.
    Magnet fishing is gaining popularity and there will be some interesting things coming out of uk rivers with fishing magnets and there is loads of cash box found magnetfischen.

    • @drasticg
      @drasticg  6 років тому +1

      hi Andrew you never know where is the best spots, even I go out and find nothing all day but to increase your chances you need to go to any local rough areas with high crime rates and fish under and around bridges
      and the more populated the area the more stuff you will find
      on a side note even remote areas could have still in the water so just go out and have fun

      I use a few magnets like these
      I wouldn't buy cheap small ones as you will waste your money

    Sorry, not a weirdo here as I have been commenting a lot but I have an idea. In regards to the bikes being chucked over the bridges. What if there was a Marathon Magnetic Competition where financially disadvantage kids could win a bike if they participated in a marathon magnetic competition. A large garbage bin per competitor and whoever got the bins full could get a bike. The sponsor could be a bike company or a store could sponsor the competition. It would clean up the water way , get kids out from their phones and give them a sense of accomplishment by doing something and receiving a just reward. About a 4-6 hour competition. There could be smaller prizes as well like MC Donald's gift cards etc.

    What type and pull of a magnet did u use for this? Going to start and just ordered our first magnet - thinking its a great way of keeping the kids off the xbox!! Plus, they would be outdoors. Love your videos - only subscribed to about 6 u tube channels ever but didnt think twice about yours - thank you for the minimal 'bad' language. My 13yr old daughter loves watching u! Are u ever in Ireland?

    For pulling bicycles out a bigger magnet be ideal about 500+ kg something with some real sticking power 😁 What being used here looks like no more than a 200 kg which seems it doesn't have enough to stick to coin let alone a bicycle. I wouldn't use anything under 400kg myself but, I'm not you. Each to their own i suppose. Maybe take a more powerful one with you just in case it is needed could be a good idea. 🤔

    Cool video. Do you always tie the rope to something?. With cold hands it would be easy to let it slip out the hands
    I've just discovered a technique to try and find my bracelet I lost in the river 4 years ago 😂 . First throw of a tennis ball into the river and my dog dived in catching my £350 bracelet and taking it in with him . It was a night of crying and drowning my sorrows with beer 😂 .
