Same here, living in the sticks, I saved all my fishing tackle, in the hope the son may use it, I lost
Whicker basket, float box
Abu ledgerlight, match rod, my Legendary Hardy Carp master, even bitten through Abu 506 & Mitchell match 440.. landing nets, keep nets.
Pretty much the lot was gone. Insured, but irreplaceable some of the gear..I now shoot on sight, or Annie is partial to shaking them like a rag doll, when the terrorist comes out, in her.
