beamish78 142 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 Had a go at this earlier, brilliant fun, got soaked through but well worth it. Managed to drag out a road sign, bridge number cast iron plaque. A shotgun hammer, necklace and earring and loads of iron ore. Will be defiantly having a few more sessions, 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

walshie 2,804 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 I read about it a week or so ago and wondered if you could "catch" anything of value as obviously gold and stuff isn't magnetic. Does anyone mind you hurling a big magnet in the river over and over? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CushtyJook 1,097 Posted November 15, 2017 Report Share Posted November 15, 2017 sounds good but unless picking up decent non ferrous metals like gold silver even copper and lead brass and all that don't seem worth it finding rusting scrap guess those old cast road signs can be worth a bit Quote Link to post Share on other sites
