So... has anyone did the magnet fishing thing?
I bought a cheap "kit" on sale before Christmas from Brute. I'm looking forward to using it, but feel like I need a "101" or "for dummies" guide. There's probably instructions in there though.

Not going to ask the question.
Compared to parenting, Cat herding is less complicated

cool hobby but I went to metal detector which means I can more easily 'find that metal, hmm, gold' where I think it has the best chance to be but yea that is a hobby I might easily do LOL
throw down a magnet and see what comes up!! Luckily bones of any kind are not gonna happen so I won't bring up a skeleton or other creepy crap HA

We bought a kit also. Haven’t used it and I think it’s lost in the barn.

See that's part of my questions. The locktite. I've never used it. I've been working on other things today, but I'm hoping to get it down and look it over again one day soon. I thought at first it went on the rope (knot) but then that didn't sound right. The threaded part of the magnet/"hook" does make more sense.
