No tools needed. Apply the adhesive on the nut and it will seep between the nut and bolt to secure it.

Direct pulling force is on one side of the magnet. 360º magnets pull on all sides, so combined pulling force sums all sides and is the best indicator of strength.

Yes and no. Any strong magnet could be used, but your success will be lower. For effective magnet fishing, you want a heavy, powerful 360º neodymium magnet that pulls on all sides. All Bondi Magnets are 360º neodymium magnets made especially for magnet fishing.

We offer a range for all levels: The Nugget (beginner), The Jackpot (all-round), The Bondi Gold (Bondi’s choice), The El Dorado (heavy-duty), The Holy Moly (extreme—only for highly experienced fishers). A Magnet Quiz is coming to help you choose.

Magnet fishing magnets are specific. Many cheap ‘fishing magnets’ are just normal magnets and disappoint. Bondi Magnets are designed for magnet fishing and tested by Bondi Treasure Hunter, so you get a genuine magnet fishing magnet at a fair price.

A magnet that pulls on all sides and uses neodymium, a rare-earth metal. It gives a strong, consistent pulling force that doesn’t weaken over time. Perfect for magnet fishing.

All Bondi Magnets are strong. The Holy Moly is the most extreme magnet for magnet fishing—only for highly experienced magnet fishers. Stronger isn’t always better.

Not always. Stronger magnets pull more but can also stick to large metal you don’t want. Around big metal or unknown waters, start smaller and work up. The Jackpot is a good all-rounder for adults beginning the hobby.

It’s measured in lab conditions with all sides combined. In real life, mud, rust, and partial contact reduce that. Higher advertised strength improves your chances of pulling heavier items.

You can fish with just a magnet, but a grappling hook lets you catch non‑magnetic stuff and helps with big pulls like bikes or safes. Two people can pull together by looping the hook through the rope carabiner.

The protective cover is engineered thin and the bottom stays exposed. You won’t notice a difference in power. Covers are included for free with every Bondi Magnet.

It’s probably strong enough, but climbing ropes soak up water and can knot permanently. Bondi Heavy Duty ropes are water‑repellent, have carabiners on both ends, and are easy to untie after a day in the water.

Neodymium is powerful but fragile. Our magnets come pre‑assembled with a protective cover to reduce impacts. Chips can happen and won’t affect magnetic strength.

It’s already on your magnet. The gold‑coloured outer layer is the protective cover.

All magnets include: Golden Bondi Magnet Cover, Durable Waterproof Gloves, Bondi Extra Tough XL Bucket, Foam Travel Cover, Pre‑assembled, Loctite. We recommend at least one Heavy Duty rope and a grappling hook. A budget‑friendly kit is a great option.

Kits include: a 360º magnet of your choice, 3‑point grappling hook, Heavy Duty Rope 10mm, Golden Bondi magnet cover, Durable waterproof gloves, Bondi Extra Tough XL Bucket, Loctite, Foam travel cover.

Merch is on the roadmap. Keep an eye on the website or sign up for the newsletter for updates.

Check with your airline. If allowed, pack it in the original box with the protective cover to minimise magnetic attraction.

We ship the next business day. You’ll get a tracking code. Most packages arrive within a week.

Sometimes processing takes longer. You’ll get a confirmation email when processed and a tracking number once scanned by the carrier. Check your spam folder as well.

We already use the fastest available air shipping for all orders, so there’s no separate priority option.

Unbox in an open space, away from metal objects, electronics, bank cards, watches, etc.

Main risk is getting fingers between the magnet and an object or between two magnets. You can damage surroundings or underwater habitats. Only fish at responsible locations.

For firearms or explosives, call authorities immediately. Don’t touch—leave it attached, lower it back, and step away. For historic finds, keep it wet and muddy, inform authorities, and contact a specialist or local museum.

Magnet fishing helps clean waterways, but be mindful of wildlife and habitats. Balance cleaning scrap metal with not disturbing nature. Check with local authorities to ensure your spot is appropriate.

In most cases no, but it depends on your country, state, and municipality. Always check with local authorities for your spot.

Step back to add distance on the rope. Pull with short, sharp pulls from different angles, ask for help, and bounce using body weight. If it’s still stuck and unsafe to enter the water, use a winch. Always stay safe.

Take it to a scrap iron dealer for cash or dispose of it properly. Don’t throw it back or leave it on the sidewalk.

Almost any body of water works if it’s safe. Rivers with many boulders and rocks may trap your magnet.

Salt water accelerates rust on neodymium magnets and can reduce power over time. It also degrades other metals, so it’s not the best place for finds. If you still fish salt water, rinse your magnet with fresh water afterward.

All year is fine. Most people prefer spring and fall when water levels are lower and visibility is better.

If you think it’s valuable, check with local authorities for how to proceed. Non‑historic scrap or coins are usually fine to keep.
