Catastrophic Magnet Fishing Expedition: Uncovering Hidden Hazards Around Lake Michigan!

Catastrophic Magnet Fishing Expedition: Uncovering Hidden Hazards Around Lake Michigan!
Join us on a thrilling and perilous journey as we travel from Menominee, Michigan, around Lake Michigan, ending in Green Bay, Wisconsin. Our adventure takes us through popular and dangerous cities such as Mackinaw City, Traverse City, Bay City, Saginaw, Flint, Lansing, and many more.
Our trip took unexpected turns: we discovered a gang member's gun, felt unsafe due to a suspicious reporter, and had to make a quick escape from a city. We eventually turned in the firearm to the state police in Lansing, only to witness a drunken kayaker nearly drowning, leading to a dramatic rescue and arrest.
A near-crash due to a faulty brake system and a pothole forced us to drive cautiously back to Indiana, cutting our trip short. After a bout of illness and ongoing car repairs, I’ve had time to reflect on the dangers we faced.
This journey has profoundly impacted my life, making me view magnet fishing more cautiously. If you decide to try magnet fishing, be aware of your surroundings. Stay safe, and happy fishing!

Definitely need a part 2. When you get the van in safe working order! Favorite part on this trip was you and the young fellows. Kindness is contagious! ✌️🐢

[@danidip]

Will do!!

[@sandraedwards9943]

That rock you didn't know what it was is a Youper Light. If you put it under a black light, it lights up. In my younger years, I used to go hunting them at night, when I was back home.

[@danidip]

Thanks for the info!

[@pamelamurack2322]

That Guy was CREEEEPEEEEY I really liked this video. I want part 2. Hope all goes well with the van and we can see you on the road north to Green Bay I have been to Charlevoix, Mi and we went or the Petoskey stones too Found ones that were a complete fossil Cool side trip for sure Glad you showed us that

[@danidip]

I’m glad you enjoy it, might do more videos like it!

[@roylove276]

Helping and giving those kids the magnets

[@paulettek3682]

Since we retired, magnet fishing is on the list for cheap entertainment. But have to catch up on home projects first. We want to get our old aluminum boat in the water and cruise rivers like The Fisher.

[@JoKayS]

I know you have a good heart, but you really need to be cautious around strangers. That guy was off. Thank God you made it home safe..sure it looked frightening dealing with that guy. God bless you and your friends .Stay safe always, and many blessings...

[@jerrydw_racer]

Yo. Such an amazing trip. I've always wanted to do magnet fishing here in Canada but where i currently live it's not very big. But I hope to continue watching your videos and take huge inspiration soon and maybe start doing some magnet fishing myself. Thanks and great video!

[@BoldLion]

Awesome! Thank you for being great big brothers to the next generation!

[@TheLittlestViking]

Check out wine barrel strapping, it looks like your "wagon wheel" might be that.

[@carlacarter74]

[@danidip]

[@danidip]

[@paulettek3682]

[@BoldLion]

Yes need part2

[@michelleneal6860]

Hi Dani These videos are great! I’m so interested in this hobby. I’d love to see a video about “getting started in magnet fishing.” A beginners guide, per se. What are your thoughts on the cheapo kits they sell on Amazon? If I just wander down to the creek by my house (Chicago River/Middle Fork) do you think a cheap kit would be do the job?

[@danidip]

I’ll make a video soon on my thoughts on cheap magnets I’d say you pay for what you get!

[@michelleneal6860]

@@danidip lol! I figured as much. But for a novice just getting started, who isn’t ever going to be a pro like you, it might be a jumping off point.

[@gingerguzman2022]

PART 2 PART 2 PART 2 PLEEEEEAAAASE 😊and please keep safe. i enjoy your videos

[@chellee]

Omg, you found the controller for the titanic sub that imploded... lmao

[@danidip]

Yes indeed they do

[@katey3789]

[@danidip]

[@kevinhavens8289]

[@roylenesnider3814]

yes please do a part 2.. but be safe ..

[@TheLittlestViking]

I really want to do magnet fishing, but I've got a pacemaker now (since 2022) and am afraid of exposing it to the magnet. Even though the warnings are only for magnets close to the chest, and my pacemaker is "MRI safe," I still worry.

[@kevinhavens8289]

U should see them rocks all polished up they are even more amazing

[@danidip]

I know still haven’t touched them

[@faithross4757]

BTW that rock is a pudding stone 8:29

[@user-zv2mj6ry7i]

[@rogerwachal3718]

[@kathyfreeman5281]

[@jaheimjohnson6639]

[@danidip]

Have to have a reason

[@user-be3bn3be4t]

45 miles from my house.

[@mandytull]

Heck yeah go back

[@mikehigginbotham585]

Play background music when you're talking

[@danidip]

It’s so hard with copyright that’s why the music over the bridge was all messed up I had to change it and KZbin did a crap job fixing it…

[@dreamers_den_ph]
