Do you mine iron in the swamp using wishbone or crypts? (programming.dev)

It seems like the nodes I find using wishbone are small and underwater. Are they even worth it?

I have to use the wishbone, I don't know how anyone couldn't. I only get handful of crypts per swamp and iron doesn't go very far in crafting. Aka I need every piece of scrap iron I can get my hands on in any way I can. I'm creating things pretty far past iron and it all still needs some iron it seems like.

I'm probably doing things wrong.

The swamps that have the Bomemass altar usually (but not always) have a lot of crypts. On a new run, I'll usually try to find a crypt that's right on the waterline somewhere so I can get in and out with a little less risk and hope it has a location stone for the boss. Once I find the boss location, I'll make a longship out of my first crypt iron and hopefully a shield and head to the boss marker and see if I've got a good collection of crypts to work with. Finding the boss marker can be trouble sometimes, so I also keep an eye out for it up in the ruined towers as I'm sailing and mapping swamp coast line.
