I like the idea of magnet fishing, but it seems like you just pick up metal trash.

So at best, you find something rare and valuable, and at worst, you're removing trash from the waterways. What's not to love?

Once I went magnet fishing in a grate near my school's cafeteria, managed to get a lot of coins which felt like being rich as a kid

Yep, my bluetooth earbuds charging case gets some coins stuck on it every time I place change in my pocket

But occasionally you find $100000.
