I think I wil be more careful when walking past scaffolders working in the future given how dropsy they apparently are. I think there’s loads more scaffolding down where I pulled those up but it was the last spot of the day so I only had time for a few casts.

I let a couple of passing kids have a go and they managed to find someone else’s small fishing magnet, so they were pretty pleased to get one for themselves, and I saw them again later that day having a go in Castle park. I also pulled up another larger single sided magnet that someone hadn’t loctited their eyelet on properly.

I didn’t find much this time around but that’s frequently the case when trying new spots. I definitely want a bigger magnet, there was a lot of deep mud and a larger one would really help finding stuff buried in there.

I was very tempted to create traffic chaos using this sign I pulled out, but I decided that Bristol has enough of that already

    Some coins are magnetic. I usually get 1p, 2p and 5p coins, but I’ve also found a couple of Israeli and Romanian coins, and an Indian one.

    £1 and £2 coins aren’t magnetic, so unfortunately I won’t be fishing out any of those.

      Didn’t realise that. Thanks!

      And happy 'fishing!
