They do not insure whilst in use(night fishing). They only insure if you have had your equipment forcibly removed from you.

I presume it covers my personal items to same amount,so assumed that covered my tackle whilst out and about.

I would definately ring and check because I dont think that "personal possesions" covers your fishing tackle in use unless it is otherwise stated on your policy. I think tackle would be classed as sporting equipment and most companies do not insure it whilst in use.

Most people with household insurance have got cover on their tackle, only if it is nicked from the home, garage and sometimes your car, which leads people to believe that their equipment is insured on the bank, but unfortunately it is not. Unless it is specificaly stated on your policy, ring up and ask the questions and get peace of mind.
