Logui Projects 1200 LB Magnet Fishing Kit with Case - 2 Fishing Magnets in 1 (Double Sided Magnet) - with Grappling Hook, Heavy Duty 65FT Rope, Gloves, Carabiner and Foldable Bucket.

I bought this for my kid and he had so much fun in the creek with it. We found a few cool things, and he used the hook to pull branches away from his fishing spots.

Great kit to get out and find what lost underwater. I've dragged out a few bikes with ease. The magnet is really strong and even being stuck to the front tube of a bike it didn't come off.

Good

Really cool item. Value is in it if you find stuff! I have not had the best of luck, but my day is nigh!

Still waiting to find something valuable enough so I can retire from magnet fishing, but I can confirm this magnet definitely works. Funny story — before buying it, I saw a bunch of reviews saying stuff like, “It claims 1200 lbs but I’m only pulling up fishing hooks and they fall right off. This thing sucks.” That’s not really how these magnets work. The holding power depends on the type of metal, thickness, surface contact, and angle. First day I got it, I took it to a bridge with a big steel structure underneath. Maybe my third throw, the magnet slammed onto the steel and got completely stuck. I mean STUCK stuck. I could not pull this thing off to save my life. I didn’t bring much with me, so I started looking around for a branch or stick to wrap the rope around for leverage. No luck. Then I checked my car and found a snow brush. Wrapped the rope around it a few times and started pulling. Finally got the magnet to move maybe two inches… then SNAP — the snow brush broke. At this point people on boats are driving by looking at me like I’m some kind of idiot fighting a bridge. I was honestly close to tying the rope to my car, but then I pictured the magnet finally breaking loose and flying through my back window. Eventually I somehow got it close enough to pry it loose from the steel. Long story short: the magnet absolutely works. Maybe a little too well.

Loved the dual sided magnet and I prefer this over most other shapes of magnets. Grappling hook is a good addition, even though it's terribly welded and a little scary in that regard. Currently I'm using it as a window deciration in my nautical themed windowsill. I upgraded this 1000lb (500lb/side) kit with a few items from the hardware store and here on Amazon. You need Locktite thread glue ($5) or another type of thread locker glue to fasten the bolt to the magnet. Used two old Rubbermaid food storage containers to store the whole kit with a little modification. Magnet had bolt attached with Locktite, waited 24 hours to completely harden, then cut the foam to fit the bolt...then slid it into the container. Bottom of the shipping foam from the magnet was cut as well to shorten it to better shut the lid (see closeup magnet pic). Gloves and Locktite with the supplied extra bolt sit in there nicely as well. The 65' rope that came with the kit (blue rope in my pics) came with one not great carabiner, but it does the trick. I bought an 8 pack of the screw lock carabiners here on Amazon for $11 and put a few in that Rubbermaid, then tied one to the other end of the rope for extra security. Lastly, for $10 my local Ace Hardware had this yellow 100' rope with a 750lb capacity. Used a 36" rubber strap to secure it all, and doubles as a little carrying handle. Other than a little heat shrink to better secure my knots, this kit is good to go for this somewhat beginner! Definitely a good magnet to do your own upgrades to as well that comes with a good bit of kit to start out. Lastly, the gloves fit but are slightly tight. However, I'm a 6'1" guy with large hands. It's to be expected. I have different gloves I'll use when these break.

The rope is a little lacking. Could have used something better I think. But the magnet works good. The hook does what it is supposed to do too. But I would recommend getting a better rope.

The magnet on a flat pull is very strong, don't listen to the people who say they are weak while trying to pick up the hook or eyelets it comes with. The hook is not ferrous, and the metal the eyelets are made from is barely ferrous. Magnets cannot pick up every type of metal out there. I hooked it to my coffee table leg, and it sticks to that very well, stuck it to my front door for a straight pull from the center of the magnet and heard my door frame creak before it let go. This isn't going to pull out street signs and such like some of the guys do on videos online, but it is a great beginner kit, and that's what I was looking for. The hook is made out of some sort of light metal, not sure if it is an aluminum alloy, or what it is. It might be stronger than I think, but I feel like if you got anything of serious weight on it, it would probably bend or the ring welded on the end might come off, but I could be wrong. I would bet it will handle anything the magnet will though. The rope is typical paracord you can get anywhere but feels sturdy enough. The gloves are like a light gardening glove with rubberized palm and fingers. The gloves won't save you from sharp objects, but will help, and will help pulling anything rusty, just watch for sharp edges. The case feels very sturdy, it has a channel for a rubber seal, but mine didn't come with one, not sure if it was supposed to or not. The "collapsible bucket" is essentially just a canvas bag, it will handle anything smaller and of any value you want to bring home, but I would get a plastic bucket for the junk items you pull to get rid of. Good buy for the money, I bought magnetic coat hooks for the sides of my tool box that cost more than this set, and have similar strength magnets in them, maybe a little weaker. Great beginner set, and a good way to get outside doing something off the couch and away from electronics, plus you can clean up some of the junk in your water ways in your area while having fun at it!
