Lots of rocks and a very tall bridge so I like to throw the water shoes on and go wading around at this location.
I ended up finding an extremely heavy compressor and a decent sized rim.
Other finds:
•Motorcycle kick stand
•A couple pieces of a sign
•Half of a jack
•Lures
•Steel framing
•Lures
•Screws
With the help of a friend who is far better at restoration, we managed to restore what appears to be a 19th century pistol. This is by far the oldest treasure we have discovered magnet fishing. Im so happy with the results!
It feels very solid and weighs about 5 lbs. AI search says it may be an industrial fitting
I was rushing to get ready for work and looked over to see GL lounging by the pool. 🤣
Here, we can observe the hen calmly watching her owner prepare dinner (dont tell her it's chicken strips)
We found quite a few gun parts and car parts. Even with all that, this was still my favorite catch of the day.
Lots of other finds as well. Big thanks to Dallas PD for taking all the gun parts.
It was barely on there. It was my favorite find of the day!

We had quite a few decent catches off of Webb Chapel in Dallas including a storm grate and an alarm clock.
Here's the clip of my buddy catching an old revolver. We've caught 3 guns at this place in the past, yet we find something "new" every time we fish here. We are thinking the heavy rains are moving things around in the Trinity River.
Irving, Texas.
Today we found a variety six pack of beer, an air filter housing, a spoon, pieces of a sign, bullet casing, floor board of a vehicle, sockets, a screw driver. I haven't been magnet fishing in over a month so this was a pleasant come back!
I think we found someone's dump spot under a bridge.
