Un loisir tres en vogue et tres addictif d apres Anthony qui a laisse de cote la pratique de la peche traditionnelle, pousse par la curiosite de decouvrir ce qui a ete jete au fond de l eau. Un cote sportif indeniable, une sorte de chasse au tresor moderne et tout ca dans un but ecologique.
FRANCE - MAGNET FISHING
Anthony and his friends occupy their Sunday afternoon by fishing with a magnet, under a bridge in Choisy-le-Roi in the Val de Marne. The activity consists of clearing a stream of all types of metal objects using a large magnet attached to a climbing rope. Anthony brings to the surface some sometimes surprising objects: bicycles, guns, crowbars, ammunition, motorcycle frames, ... He calls on the municipal services to come and collect his catch.
A very fashionable and addictive hobby according to Anthony who has left aside the practice of traditional fishing, driven by curiosity to discover what has been thrown to the bottom of the water. An undeniable sporting side, a kind of modern treasure hunt and all this with an ecological purpose.
