Magnet fishing is becoming a popular hobby amongst people throughout the country. From the short list of supplies needed, to the rush of pulling your magnet out of the water, it is easy to understand why so many people are taking the opportunity to see what they can find in nearby streams, ponds, etc. While fishers may partake in this fun activity for a number of reasons, one Maryland man has recently made national headlines for magnet fishing for a cause. Cleaning the Pier Baltimore resident Evan Woodard worked for a company known as Salvage Inc. during the pandemic. After spending time excavating and digging in the area, he said that he wanted to find other ways to spend time outside with his friends while making a difference. That’s when the group headed to a nearby pier to start magnet fishing. Despite only participating in the hobby for a few months, Woodard says he has found all sorts of items, big and small, in his pursuit of cleaning up the pier. While a news crew followed him around for their story, Woodard removed six e-scooters from the water at the Broadway Pier.  While the activity usually draws the attention of others walking by, Woodard says most people are incredibly appreciative and actually thank him for what he is doing once he gives them an explanation. Attention, however, is not why he does this. Instead, he says it is all about making a positive change while having fun at the same time.  Cast A Line With Apex Magnets If you are interested in seeing what you can discover while magnet fishing, we can help you get started!
