Most of what I found was keys and coins, mostly coppers but I might have a quid total if I'm lucky! Not sure who accepts dirty, heavily tarnished coins though.
Two bikes this time, but I'm pretty sure there's two more down there in the mud. It's really thick mud in that section so I think all the heavy scrap is sunk in there deep down.
I developed a bit of an audience while trying to pull out the second bike and got a round of applause when I eventually pulled it out! It was good to brighten some people's day but I think I'll go somewhere quieter next time. As always I was very pleasantly surprised with the overwhelming majority having positive reactions to what I was doing, and one woman even came and had a go.
Most interesting finds were these two Israeli coins and one Indian coin:
What kind of setup are you using to fish? I've only recently heard about this hobby. Is it a magnet on the end of an actual fishing rod or just tied to some paracord or something so you can haul heavier items out.

I bought a kit from Magnetar with near enough everything I needed to get started, including a grappling hook which I swap out with the magnet to pull out bikes and shopping trolleys mostly.
