I pulled out 107 in about 3.5 hours as well as one big bonus canister. Nearly every single cast I pulled more up. Nothing particularly interesting this time unfortunately but I did get 2 bikes from the old YoBike scheme and a Voi scooter with the battery removed (presumably stolen).

Near the end of the day a young woman asked to have a go and promptly got hooked after a few casts, so hopefully I've helped create another future magnet fisher!

Bonus bicycles and scooter, reported for the council to collect. Everything else went in the car to eventually be weighed in for scrap.

It looks like the quiet aftermath of a war movie. I know people are, rightly, concerned about disposable vapes but that's pretty serious.

I did find one disposable vape, and I do think they are an issue but NOS is definitely a way bigger issue for me.

I was walking in Wales last month and found a big canister left up by a trig point. They would have had to walk it up there full so I don't se why they couldn't just walk it back down empty. Instead I had to carry it back down the hill for 30 minutes until I found a bin.
