I discuss what is my choice of magnet for magnet fishing and which magnet's to avoid. I discuss in detail the pro's and con's of my magnet along with the cheaper magnets that are readily available at your local hardware store.
Other items I think you'd like to look at for magnet fishing:
65ft rope with carabiner

Still lookinh for link where you get your magnet
Garjohn Garrido I personally get mine at brute magnetic. Just google it
I know I am pretty off topic but does anybody know a good site to stream newly released movies online?
@Wells Nolan Flixportal =)
@Nash Houston thank you, I went there and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :) I really appreciate it!!
Wow! That is a new shape of fishing magnet! These are some great tips for the hobby!😊
Glad I saw this video! I was just looking up Doublesided vs single sided magnet. I just ordered the cone Magnet you had linked in this video. So far, the only thing I found was an auger for ice fishing that's still usable! I'm already hooked on this new hobby up here in Michigan!
It's fun for sure. A great new way to go fishing so to speak. Hope you find some bangers.
Me too!
Sir_Stranger WOW ! Michigan ! Hi from Erith in Kent In the UK what’s the weather in your area ? Regards Kev
Nug can you show us how to tie a good knot?
I used to search under docks with a snorkel and mask. 40 years later,I still have the scissors and BB gun that I found. The golf balls are long gone. I just ordered my first magnet and I am looking forward to trying it out. No snorkeling for me at age 60. I am also looking into a metal detector since it is what retired folks do, right ?
I’ve been trying to talk my daughter into doing this with me. I wasn’t sure what magnets to get. This helps! Thanks!
Always nice to see a video that isn't just a sales pitch
Going back and watching all your old video's and oh boy, wished I had seen this one a long time ago. I did buy a cheap magnet and didn't realize they would come apart and within a few hours, my rope came up without the magnet. Thanks for the info!
Thank you for the information and sharing your experience.
Man I’ve got probably 20 bridges I can think of right of top my head, this has really got my attention and I’ve gotta get some gear and get at it.
Thanks, bought the cone like you suggested. Awesome 👌
As a noob I found this info very informative. Keep posting. Thx
Well thanks for that. I just like to share what I've learned over time and hopefully that helps others out.
Good information !!!!
Nice instructional video. Thanks for posting!
Anytime buddy. Thanks for watching
Thank you for the info. Now I know what type of magnet to purchase.
Thanks! I'm checking out pros and cons for a future purchase.
Awesome. Glad I could help you out.
I use the Palomar knot recommended by others on the Tube with an extra knot above and the tag end cinched up with 3 zip ties spaced evenly apart. Same type of rope as yours.
Great video! This helped me a lot!
Glad it helped you out some.
Poly Polypropylene, That`s the missing link I was wondering about a better rope/cord to tie off with mine are the Neodymium Magnets. Round not cone, One is 360 degree rotation. cords are like 60 feet way to short for me, been shopping for different cord, I was undecided well this video was educational so to speak
Great video good advice I have lost two magnets up to now when they have got stuck on the bottom
Yeah, Losing magnets is never fun. And those babies aren't cheap either.
Glad I saw this video... haven't seen the cone magnet yet ..thx
I think brute Magnetics still carries them.
Great video. Subscribed
Great info
Very helpful info thx
Thanks for sharing
Man, I tie the same knot on my bout anchors and things like that. That is the best knot u can tie.
Thanks! Maybe I'll start magnet fishing.
It's pretty fun. Especially if you find a good place where people throw stuff like bridges and canals
very good my friend :) like !
Very informative!
Thank you. This was my first attempt at a review video. I'm glad you liked it. What did you find most informative?
I have a cheap Magnet from Harbor Frieght, and eventually buy a real magnet. So the ability to look at what other people buy, and look for in a magnet is always good!
I recommend getting this magnet. It's a kit and comes with everything you need. amzn.to/2Rfv01u
Good video..Curious how brittle the cone is? I've read it chips easily.. how many have you gone through?
Good job buddy
I just lost a 1500# magnet in the river, and it sux. Rope was cheap, although it was supposed to be strong. I'm going for the cone magnet. Thanks!!
THAT is THE Shape I keep thinking of - so it Does exist!?! Cool & -> Thanks! Nice to have someone that speaks of - - subject, not . . ~ well nice job! ~ peace!
thanks for the vid!
Anytime
Nice different video than the normal dive videos. Keep up the good work! Do you dive with the cone magnet?
I don't dive with it but I have used it while kayaking. It's so heavy, you get fatigued fast with it.
One thing you should mention is it depends a lot on how you are fishing. This magnet could get caught just as easy in the V of a log/tree if you are throwing/dragging it. There are also double sided magnets that are good for dragging. The flat one sided magnets are also good magnets for bobbing say off a bridge or pier.
Agreed. This was an older video and I’m still learning. Good input buddy
Thank you! 🇳🇴
I recommend adding a metal thimble to your rope, and glue it in place with waterproof glue.
I'll look into it. Thanks for the tip.
Metal thimble ??
@@kevinsnelling6202 I think they meant some kind of reinforcement of the rope right where it attaches to the magnet, since that's going to be the part most exposed to wear and tear by rubbing up against the edges of stuff underwater. I would just use a noose knot like the guy in the video did.
What kind of magnet does your cat use? Mine likes the cone shape. He throws it farther than me.
Very informative
Thank you. I filmed this so long ago. Think I should do another one?
I recently subscribed and ben backtracking yr videos.. I love all of them..great work
Many thanks for the vid.. Now i can go back and retrieve my $250 fishing rod & reel set up from a failed kayak trip lol!!!!
Glad I could help! Really old video but still gets the point across.
Like it ! Wath about Magnetar 🤔
Interesting
Was wondering if you could weld a stronger magnet to it ... def like the design better than luck version and flat are even worse when fishing from shore .. hard to beat flat when fishing from boat or bridge though
Hi good video. Is the whole cone magnetized or just the flat end?
It actually has a hockey puck size magnet in the end of the cone. The cone is steel.
Liked and commented to help with the algorithm.
Thank you as always.
Jeremy, I haven’t seen you use this one, what happened to it? THX
Good
Years back company called "magnitizer" claimed very strong magnets used for cleaning water pipes etc! (I worked for water pump company an tested to work) also single polarity good for plant growth good for fuel lines, all in various shapes an sizes an strengths! When out of business! But I got box of them! Their even rubberized coated! I have info if you wish! Ask an ill find it! Some you can't pull apart have to slide across faces to separate! Oh Baby for what your doing here! Look up magnetizers!
Thank you for this informational video. I want to go do this with my 2 teen kids. What weight would you recommend?
Uhhhh just search brute magnetics website. 500lb pull ones are a good go to
Many thanks for the vid. I watched, then ordered materials to build 2 rigs (for myself and daughter) for about $60, and that should buy us LOTS of fun and bonding time!Take care, my friend -your time/insight/experience/instructions are greatly appreciated.
Cool. It's a really fun hobby. Just like fishing if you think about it. If you ever find yourself at www.brutemagnetics.com, use promo code NUGGETMAN to get a discount.
You have a kitty! Beautiful
yeah she's my buddy.
you even have 13 knots on that noose, RIGHT ON !
Great little video. But are finding safes a thing?
Surprisingly it is. I guess people steal them and dump them in the river when they empty them
@@exploringwithnug ok makes sense now. Thanks.
if I can ask we’re did you get that cone magnet
I got it from brute magnetics many years ago.
What kind of magnet is the cone magnet if it's not a ferrite magnet?
Neodymium magnet
Say you toss that thing in a river and it latches onto a '57 Chevy... Do you use a vehicle to break it loose?
RhYn0n if need be.
Only if it's a 63 vet..
Instead of electrical ripe I would get a piece of heat shrink tubing.
for me this video was uploaded at midnight!
Zero yeah sorry about that. It was11pm when I uploaded it here. Not an ideal time but I figured what the hell.
Can you make a video on how to tie good knots
Sure. I'll get right on that for you. Thanks for the suggestion.
wish you told us what type of magnet it is ?
Nice pfp xD
How much does this magnet itself weigh?
I don’t know for sure. It’s not the worst. I actually lost it so I don’t have a way to weigh it right now
I live fishing magnet sre my canal D&M Magnes Neodymowy from Poland ;-))
Bet you find some cool stuff there
👍👌🙏
blood in the water
Okay.
You lost me at ..."I forgot the magnet"
I’m in the uk and last night I went fishing with my one sided 400kg magnet and it snagged and my partner also does fishing and magnet fishing and we love it. So my magnet is stuck and we need to get it out by buying more rope and pulling from the opposite direction but I also said the shape of my magnet it’s bound to get stuck but I’m in the uk and the cost of exporting would be way too expensive, I also don’t like how everything is from Amazon so is there another route for me to get one of these come shaped magnets 🧲
Interesting
Yeah that's an old video
