Can someone help identify each of the 10 marine creatures? Not mentioned anywhere on the board.

I was also wondering about the purple creature. My kid has a Big Book of Sea Creatures and we thought it was a Ornate Wobbegong; but I believe you are right with skate fish. The wobbegong has a very similar form but has whiskery mouth tassles and the skate has more of the pointed face indicated. I was calling it a horseshoe crab until this was really brought to issue. :)

I see that the magnet is a long red block for some of the fishing poles. Is the magnet inside the block or attached at the end on the outside?

It is inside the block. But it doesn't work unfortunately. The magnet is not strong enough to pick up the pieces.

Can I replace the pole. I lost mine.

You would need to contact Melissa and Doug directly. Most companies would replace at no charge.

Does the fishing pole have a magnet at the end? (one that can come off & be accidentally swallowed by a child) Or is the rod itself just magnetized?

magnet at the end of pole but doesn't look like it would get loose.....we just supervise the little one when she is playing with it and then put it away
