get reciepts or valuations and try to get them on your house insurance. its called anytime insurance i think. doesnt matter if their taken from a car, beach or just break, they'll replace them. if they'll put them on it shouldnt cost much. i put something on last year valued at E1800 and it only cost E35 extra per year. small price to pay. might think about this myself.

reinsured in april sent a list of my rods reels ect ,because no one item is over 2000 yo yos they are covered in the all risks policy 8) no extra charge on mine :D also covered if taken from the car or van ,the all risks and accidental part of the policy is a bit extra but well worth it ,keep a list of any new gear and receipts if possible if your shed burnt down could you remember all your gear?my list was larger than i expected :shock: and much larger than the wife expected :oops:

I've mine covered on the all risks policy for the house as well. Useful for stuff like waders too, if you've invested in a decent pair.

I was warned though that I won't be covered if I damage something through its intended use. So if you break your 5g spinning rod hauling in some monster from the deep, don't expect any payout ;)

Done the same. i took out "all risks" on the house insurance with "Fishing tackle" as a named item with Eagle star. €50 extra for €3000 cover.

now where those 6 zziplexs ???
