Oh no, it didn't work! 😭😭 I had seen other people do this in the past and saw some cool snakes chilling out after a few hours. Maybe it wasn't out long enough or, it was already too nice of a day...
I'm not giving up though!! I put the pan back and will check it tomorrow morning. And, if nothing else, I'll find a snake the old fashioned way and try to get a photo/video for y'all! 🐍
Huge shoutout to those who reminded me to go check! Sorry I didn't have a cooler result this time!

I've always wanted to try this snake finding trick but always forget about the pan after a few hours.
I will absolutely go check the "snake trap" if y'all help remind me! 💙🐍

A small post on a few tiny finds: because treasures are treasures, no matter how big or small! 😁😁
1) The turning k**b from an old lantern. The "West" and "East" are directions of which way to turn the lantern off and on. 💡
2) A piece of costume jewelry: An old ring that has been smushed, but still has a bit of shine on its stone.💍
3) A catfish bell: a common magnet fishing find, particularly on fishing piers, but they always delight me, especially when the bell still chimes!🔔🎵

A whole new level of treasure hunting has just been unlocked!! I'm honestly disproportionately excited about this!😅😅👍👍👍
There were some cheaper options out there too, but I picked this one for being the deepest, transparent bin I could find in a rush.
Doubled as a camera gimble for my GoPro too, and I could just set my phone face down in the bin and record the river as I walked along.
Honestly? Might be the best $8 upgrade I've made to my adventure gear!

Throwback Thursday! Here's a few random finds from last year that I'm not sure if I ever shared here or not. 😁👍

Gone but not forgotten! 😭😭
(I was feeling a bit silly so made this edit of all the cell phones I've found while magnet fishing. Enjoy!😅😅)

Not everyone will understand, but that's okay.
Thank you to those that follow along on these adventures!
