Fishing Magnets

Magnetic fishing, similar to underwater commercial salvage work but on a more amateur level using handheld units instead of commercial machinery. This involves using magnets to trawl underwater, attracting metal debris or lost metallic items.

As retrieving submerged metal objects requires substantial holding power, Neodymium fishing magnets are the most commonly used magnets in this increasingly popular recreational activity.

These specialized Neodymium pot magnets are strong and durable, making them ideal for magnetic fishing. Accessories like hooks and eyelets attached to the metal pot allow ropes or cables to be secured, making it easy to cast into lakes, dams, rivers, or other waterways. Some creative metal anglers have even designed tools that use multiple magnets attached to aluminum angle iron to cover a wider area with each drag of the riverbed or lake bottom.

We stock a wide range of fishing magnets including those with two exposed magnetic faces to allow for a greater chance to attract to a ferrous object when being used to trawl through bodies of water. Also in our range is a complete all in one kit meaning one the unit arrives you can put it to immediate use without needing to purchase any additional accessories.

Much like conventional sports fishing, magnetic fishing enthusiasts experience excitement and thrill as they search for hidden metal objects or treasures that may have remained underwater for decades. In addition to being a rewarding pastime, magnetic fishing helps remove metal contaminants from local waterways, making it both an enjoyable and environmentally friendly hobby removing objects that would otherwise rust in waterways.

As any caught objects are likely to have rust due to corroding in the wet environment users should always should wear protective clothing, gloves, and eyewear to ensure their safety.
