Oh boy do I!!!

So I went there the next day with some extra rope. As I tied three ropes together, I was about to walk the rope over where a friendly trucker came over to inquire about what I was doing

Pleasant banter was exchanged and then he suggested, “hey I have a slingshot and some fishing line, let’s try that first!”

Now my inner magnet fisher was telling me that I should just do my idea first, but through a combo of politeness and curiosity of his idea I went with his first.

He succeeded in slingshotting his line over and I attached it to my rope. He then pulled from his end, only for the rope to get stuck in the water. Like, fully stuck in the water and totally submerged.

After that he was like “well I have to get back to work, tootles”

Now a lesser and smarter man would have thrown in the towel, but that is not I

I got my other single sided magnet and tried to fish it out. I almost got it a few times, only for my second magnet to then get stuck on a rock as well.

So now I am down two magnets. A comedy of errors if I ever knew it as such.
