Magnets - where from?

Am making fishing game for ds1 and need to get some cheap but effective magnets - does anyone know where I can get some from? Not the really little ones, need something small but sturdy (enough to lift a laminated pic of a fish with a paperclip attached).

Thanks Sue, but its more the magnetic thing that picks up metal that I'm after, if that makes sense.
I've drawn the marine-life and they're all paperclipped up and ready to be fished - just need something to attach to some string on a stick to make the fishing rod.
I should just have spent a fiver on the ELC game - would have been much easier.

Model shops should stock basic bar magnets. Remember that they will wipe audio and video tapes if put close by..

Thanks Anteater. There's not many shops in the tiny town I live in, but one of them happens to be a model shop, so will go tomorrow.
