Brute Magnetics Wildebeest Magnet Fishing Kit | 4250 lb Double Sided Rare Earth Neodymium Magnet, Waterproof Case, 65ft Rope with Heavy Duty Carabiner, Gloves, and Threadlocker

The magnet has worked as advertised! We have taken it out 4 times now. The case, rope, and metal carabiner are made of durable materials and seem like they will hold up well. The gloves are typical rubberize palm work gloves and do help prevent rope burn when throwing the magnet and provide a sturdy grip when pulling the rope back in. You can feel the strength of the magnet when it locks onto something in the water and when trying to pull smaller objects off of it (got a break caliper on it and it took about a minute to work it off). I like how the design of the double sided magnets. It allows the full string of one side of the magnet to be pulled face down over the bottom. The magnet stuck to a large 4 foot long, curved, 1 inch thick round tube bracket on our first outing on a bridge. Because of how the bracket was shaped, only about a quarter of one side of the magnet could connect. It probably weighed around 25-30 pounds and would fall off right before we could get our hands on it. We were able to lift it out of the water and get it to the side of the bank with the small area it was able to attach to. If there would have been a place for the magnet to attach completely to the bracket it would have definitely been able to pull it all the way to the top of the bridge. I would buy this setup again! There are stronger magnets out there, but for the quality and price this kit is hard to beat. There is one small drawback that is hardly worth mentioning. Sometimes the metal carabiner will get stuck to the magnet. Usually a quick yank on the rope will free it though and it is not really much of an issue. If an aluminum carabiner was used, that was the same size, it would prevent this from happening, but it would also sacrifice some of the carabiners strength (though I think it would still be plenty strong). Hope this helps.

Nice very professional looking case. The magnet is strong. I work in filtration and this is right up there with some of the strongest rare earth magnets I've seen. I got it for my 6yr olds birthday, looking forward to trying it out. I got the 1200lb one sided magnet for reference. Very pleased.

This thing is strong. The day it arrived I was so excited. I went down to my boat dock to try to retrieve a chain I had dropped, I nabbed it first try. I was playing around with it, throwing it out to see if I could find anything interesting, and got distracted which ended up sticking it to the metal frame of the dock by accident. I was standing on the side of this thing jumping, trying to get it to slide down and off, no luck. I finally had to duck my head in shame and call my husband to help. After a few minutes of laughing at me, he arrived and wrapped the rope around his waist and pulled back with all 250 lbs of himself while I held a 2x4 against it and used a hammer on the end. We slowly, centimeter by centimeter, finally got it to drop off into the water. It took us at least half an hour. I can’t wait to take this thing magnet fishing, I’m just going to be WAY more careful when pulling it back up out of the water. It’s an awesome magnet.

its a good strong magnet and it comes as a kit with everything you need except gloves......my only beef with it is that it starts to rust and corrode as soon as you start using it. i knew it would start corroding at some point but did not think it would happen so quickly. anyways its not a deal breaker this kit with travel case is a good deal and i am overall happy with this purchase.....I just wish there was some kind of coating they could put on this thing during manufacturing to delay the rusting and corroding a little

This is a fun thing to buy. I got it after seeing tons of videos of people magnet fishing. I looked all over and this was by far the best deal out there. Other sites sell this for way more than Amazon, so kudos to them for having it at a wonderful price. Only used it a few times, but let me tell you wear the gloves. Got rope burn my second time out and let's just say, "Ouch!" Honestly, a great product and I can't imagine having to buy another one anytime soon. The magnet is super strong and everything is more than durable. If magnet fishing is your hobby then this is the best starter kit out there.

i bought a 2600 lb magnet fishing kit as a way to go enjoy the outdoors with my girlfriend. first thing we did was take it to the lake, on a steel fishing dock and after playing around with it, i became skeptical, thinking i got ripped off. I tested it against the frame of the fishing dock, but i could only find a section of angle that was half the size of the magnet to test against. bracing my feet against the dock, i yanked the magnet free. i felt a bit cheated, but continued fishing. the day wrapped up, we headed for the car and as we walked across a pedestrian bridge (all steel) i got a wild idea, “i wonder if it’ll stick to the bridge framing”, as the square tubing of the bridge that i was looking at was clearly larger then the magnet. Right as i started to put it to the framing, I heard my girlfriend start to say “baby you might not want to do that, “CLANG!!!”. Too late. Holy smokes, it was on there, like really flipping stuck. it wouldn’t slide or pull free, it was stuck. we spent nearly an hour sweating and bending a cheater bar trying to free it. several times we considered leaving and coming back with better tools to remove it. it’s a 2600 lb magnet and if it flatly sticks to a large steel object, IT. WILL. BE. ON. THERE!!! the only thing i caught that day was a bridge and i couldn’t take it home with me, HAHAHA

My husband and I decided to give magnet fishing a try and after a lot of research we started with this kit. We weren’t disappointed! The magnet is powerful, the rope is sturdy and strong and the gloves work great. I highly recommend this magnet kit!

Quality product, awesome case, rope could be longer possibly thinner and fit, that's what we'll end up with but this is the perfect setup night before and just fishing for your treasure. Recommend bringing a 5gal bucket, rest assured you'll find something with this bang for my buck.
