Great starter kit. Good strength magnet.
Great starter kit that has a really strong magnet. So strong in fact that I lost mine on the first trip out. I am fully to blame as I didn’t bother using the included thread locker on the hook that screws into the magnet itself. My top tip would be to definitely use the thread locker! I purchased a replacement magnet made by a different manufacturer which had a similar claimed strength and it wasn’t a patch on this one. I am tempted to buy this kit again so that I can get another decent magnet. I would highly recommend this starter kit if you are just having a go in your spare time. My included picture shows what I collected after a few dunks in our local river.

Not as strong as advertised but that might not be a good thing!
When I ordered this I was concerned with the thought of it holding on for 580kg’s worth as sometimes you end up getting the magnet onto metal bridges or fences. If it was truly 580kg I’m not sure how you would free it from there!? It is strong though and getting a 2p coin off is a challenge. Saw other reviews saying the eye can unscrew after a few throws so I used 2 part adhesive to glue the length of the bolt and the washers and tightened it with a screwdriver and pliers and left it to harden overnight and it hasn’t budged at all and I’ve been out 3 or 4 times. This magnet wasn’t cheap so to avoid losing it I recommend glueing the bolts and washers, use a strong rope, look up proper knots for magnet fishing knots on YouTube and duck tape the ‘eye’ closed to avoid snagging on rebar or other underwater debris. So far I’ve found coins, fishing tackle, very old nails and spikes and I’m looking forward to going out again soon!
