Best Magnets for Magnet Fishing
Neodymium Magnets
Neodymium magnets are a very specific magnet made of an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron. This combination creates a very strong bond between metallic surfaces. Because of this extremely strong magnetic bond, neodymium magnets can be hazardous. Pacemakers and other sensitive electronics can be adversely affected by strong magnetic fields. If you wear a pacemaker, do not handle strong magnets.
What is magnet fishing?
Magnet fishing is a type of metal detecting that can be done with a neodymium magnet and a strong rope. This activity can be done virtually anywhere. Neodymium magnets are strong enough to remove large metallic debris from bodies of water.
