I've seen quite a few videos about this subject in other locations and they usually just find junk but there's always the possibility of finding some interesting or valuable historical artifact.

This is the first time I've seen someone attach a video camera to the rope to see what's near the magnet. A light might help too. The water is surprisingly clear until the mud is disturbed. Grappling hooks are sometimes used to retrieve nonferrous objects. Gloves are necessary. A crowbar might help.

Unfortunately two weeks ago my camera for the underwater footage hit a large piece of ice and is now in the bottom of the river. looking to get a new used one so we can continue getting the underwater footage. thank you so much for watching and sharing our videos.
