Yep it's true.

He's offered me about £5000.00 worth of gear for £1000.00

There's a ton of gear, rods, bite alarms the works.

Most of my gear is top end and I don't need / want anymore gear!

It just Fûçkž me off with dirty thieves.

I've contacted Hatfield police station and have informed them that I know of the whereabouts.

Let's hope someone gets their gear back.

Nice, hopefully they get most it not all of it back.

Makes me think I should get some Apple AirTags. When I had my van broken into a few years ago my work bag was stolen.
It had GoPro, Nexus tablet and an old/spare iPhone 5 in it.

Thanks to the thief being a retard they turned the phone on when they got home and I gave the police the address. The police immediately got a search warrant as the occupier of that house had form for breaking into cars.

I got the Nexus tablet and a load of the personal items back. The phone and GoPro had gone.

Apple Air Tag batteries last for a long time...if they were concealed in the luggage you could watch that AirTags movement and let the police know where the kit was.

They are very worthwhile when I travel overseas on business I can track my stowed luggage as it makes the way to the plane and when I land to the carousel.

Small price to pay for the chance of a successful recovery.

I found Amazon had a 4 pack of the AirTags for £99 so got myself a pack.

Arrived at home today, but I am away for work so will stick 1 in each car and one in the fishing gear on my return
