Thank you all for the comments so far. It just goes to show how common tackle theft is which is sickening. Hopefully it has encouraged a few more of you to improve security. As mentioned in the video, for a lot of us, sheds are the only option so it is a case of doing what we can with what we have. 👌🏻
Comments still blaming myself and generally giving me grief will be removed. This is intended to be a helpful video so negativity won't be and doesn't need to be tolerated on my channel. I address all of the negative points raised within the video so it also shows people are not fully watching but choosing to jump on the blame band wagon straight away. Cheers, Joe
It happened to me last year still haven’t got al my gear back thousands spent now got a fraction of it
@@nuffinbutfishing I am really sorry to hear this. Have you made a list of the things you know were stolen?. We could all share it on our pages. The angling community is normally a good place and people hate it when others have their things stolen. Nice fish at the end :)
@luke_angling there is a post on my Instagram with full list of stolen kit. You'll see it on my page with big red text. Been up a month or 2 now and has been shared a lot which is great but unfortunately nothing recovered yet
It's the new generation of crack heads,thayll pinch anything and everything
Wtf.. people blaming you.saying it'd ur fault for puttin on utube and stuff.. get a grip.. sorry to hear that gutted for you..takes a lifetime to get all the kit u use and got confidence nit to mention sentimental value
Police done nothing when my tools got stolen twice. I even had cctv footage and knew the people.
Just a thought mate. Have you thought in investing in a 24hr access lock up? They are secure, with an on site security gaurd, CCTV, a fob to open the barriers, and keys to unlock your cubicle. I used one for a while and they are great. But they aren't cheap. However, because your fishing is your business, you can probably claim it's a legitimate business expense, and offset some of the cost against tax.
Broom handles fixed from wall to wall 50 pound tied on plumb bomb to floor them biggest barbed hooks tied at every twelve inches rolls up and down guaranteed dna left at the scene
In the 1960s you would have had police there right away. Society has been degraded
It’s sucks that this is the world we live in but it is! It was stupid of you to advertise you going away online. Thieves have no morals and the police would not have hurried to a shed burglary even if you could have seen them doing it
And the mad thing is the thief’s are Probably reading through these comments as we speak looking for the next target,,,😚
100%. I just put my story up about A younger age crime spree for years. But wasn't getting me no wear. I been out of jail now 25 years now. I fish i got expensive stuff too. I just said to him if he needs any thing message I'll get it in post to him . Took 15 years for my name just to be stopped using Wen things was going on. But a bad criminal back past will follow you. I got grandkids 1 fishes with me. I always tell him and all his mates. Don't steel from another angler. Ask if you need something. Or left bank sticks home or something always happens. Same in my camping tours don't take from another camper. We will give or lend or help u get it going or needs doing to get the rod back out. Tight lines spring fishing i love. Happy fishing days.
Good to hear dude you turned it around,,,,,💪🏻,,,,
All my fishing gear barring smelly items always stays in my home , always has done , don’t let women make you store it in the shed tell them to sleep in the shed and take your tackle indoors
I keep my kit in my bedroom, it's unsightly and intrusive but I know it's safe there. Sorry to hear some arsehole decided to steal yours but glad to see you're back on the bank at least.
Had mine stolen from a secure facility storage container. Thieves came in and within 20 minutes they accessed 31 storage containers in the complex. It is gutting and cost me a fortune, but sadly these things happen.
This will get worse in the coming year as people struggle for money. Second hand fishing kit sells well on ebay etc.. Iv'e had van , house and garage broken into. I've had a motorcycle stolen. I feel your pain Joe.
Happened to me,they came back 2 months later but had fitted an alarm to the shed so got nothing,police weren’t interested until I said I’m out looking for them with an axe handle,they threatened to arrest me😳🤷♂️ keep mine in the house now
Little tip people nail carpet grip upside down on the top of the fence.. said theith comes along tries to pull them selves up on the fence they slice there fingers like ham not legal but necessary.
Then they can get you nicked it's a mental world mate
I know what you've gone though because I went through the same only difference is I new who stole my gear and I sore him using it on the river bank so I got a police officer which was in the area and took him to the guy was using it I just got told if I don't have proof that it's mine he couldn't do anything and if I tried to do anything myself I would be the perpetrator I'm not going to tell you what i said but you can guess
The problem i have with the police is after the theft has happend they put the onus on you to make things harder for the criminal instead of acutally trying to arrested the individuals who are committing the crime. After having my van broken into twice in a few weeks and knowing i was being followed daily just for the right opportunity to strike, it juat doesn't seem right that the police just brush it off knowing its happening multiple times a day
I had my entire kit stolen when I was about 15 and I was gutted. Sure insurance helped (kinda) but the worst part was watching being unable to fish while the local lake was fishing the best it had in many years. Thankfully I live in Canada now and theft is far less an issue than in the UK.
Same old police. They do sweet F all!! Same thing happened when my work tools were stolen!
I’m so sorry what happened to you. It’s the worst feeling. Away from your beloved fishing gear being wrongfully stolen. It’s the breach of privacy. How it makes your family feel!!
That’s where the police also fail.
Again, as you said this isn’t a police bash. However, in my experiences. They have been highly useless! Rant over for me about the police.
I hope you and your family are well.
I’m so sorry to hear that bud but please don’t try to play it down that the police were actually helpful, it’s disgusting some
People would never be able to afford to insure and replace there tackle which in my opinion could trigger serious mental health issues, all the police are doing by not acting on it checking cctv on the roads buildings ect which we can’t access they would be able to find them if they really wanted to simple as that , by not acting they are making it a common thing and for people to except it
50 nowadays aren't fit for purpose. All they care about is so-called hate crime and being obsessed with being PC. Complete waste of time.
I'm from Europe and leaving in England for 6 years before a few differentcountries, and what's happened there in uk with robbery fishing stuff and tools from vans I'm in shock each country have thief but England it's no 1 for that
Same happened to me years ago absolutely gutting
Look at a company called Asgard sheds there police approved, not cheap but cheaper than replacing your tackle, that’s what I’ve used since my kit was robbed and same as you lights facing it and cameras and alarms
Good to see you back 👍🏼
Keep mine in the house now. Air rifles in a secure cabinet in the kitchen floor...
I keep mine indoors.. and have a dog plus cctv and dont mix with bums an drug addicts lol. plus i dont post much on social media i know its your job. my Dad had his van robbed while on his job took hes tools he had for yrs not nice..hope you got stuff back now an the scum dont return🎣
Bless Joe sad times, it seems you've been targeted, it's a nasty crime, Police used to take burglary very very seriously, they should of sent forensics. Glad you and your wife are OK 👍🏻 🎣🎣🙏🏻
A dog is a great addition, (though needs looking after properly) ... as is a CCTV setup, they come up in Lidls regularly for cheap money... and keep the most spendy stuff in the house, Delks, Deeper... stuff like that, also, a second locked steel (a sheet of concrete rebar is cheap enough) mesh door inside the main shed door will also slow the bastards down, hopefully while the shed alarm (again a cheapo will do) is screaming....
Sorry state the world has become now....😕
Tight lines, lad
☺️👍☘️🍺
Sorry to here that you have had some bad luck . I keep mine in the Loft I built racks and shelves up there . But know how you feel . Good luck sorting it all out . We are all behind you . Best of luck to you both
The moral of the story is NEVER leave you're gear in a garden shed, Or in the back of a van, Never safe there
The bloke literally said this is for the people with no where else to put it
The moral of the story is you never listened to what he said !
Nightmare! Mine is in a brick built shed with a steel door and then in a locked steel cabinet and my seatbox is chained to the floor. Still have the fear with that security
Absolutely gutted for you. It's happened to me twice now. I even ended up selling my house and moving. I keep all my fishing trips to myself. I don't put anything on Facebook or social media .I've even left my embryo syndicate because they wanted every capture put on social media . unfortunately there are some nasty people in the world.
ffs the little scabs. happened to me years ago, it destroys u mate. all mine stays under the stairs in the house with 2 big dogs now, no way will that ever happen to me again.
If you have ever needed the police in the UK, you soon realise how little you are to them. They are pretty much 0 help unfortunately.
WELCOME TO BRITAIN 🇬🇧
1. Make sure you light up your garden really well, so the thief doesnt trip over and hurt themselves as that makes YOU liable.
2. Make sure you pack away any paddling pools and ponds and swimming pools are fenced off, so the thief doesnt drown, as that make YOU liable.
3. Train your security Dog not to bite, just incase they hurt the thief during a robbery, as this makes YOU liable.
4. Please secure your roof on all your buildings, just incase the thief falls through and hurts themselves, YOU will be liable.
5. Dont secure your doors too great, just incase the thief strains themselves while trying to force the door, as this makes YOU liable.
You have to laugh or else you'd cry 😩
@@nuffinbutfishing nothing more comical than the justice system, for sure 😂
Buy an xl bully
Sadly there are some people amongst us that would steal anything, some would steal a wasps nest! The police may be able to help you if you can tell positively who has done it and provide precise evidence for them, also tell them where the thieves live and what time the they will be in, and also guarantee that the thieves won't turn confrontational.Then every consideration will be afforded to them, the thieves may be asked if any social factors influenced their actions, had they received enough affection and nutrition as a child and did they injure themselves in any way stealing your gear, which could have implications for you. You will get a crime number so you can claim on insurance and the insurance will offer you a fraction of what your gear is worth. Painful but true.
I had the same thing happen to me years ago, most of my shooting and fishing gear was meticulously gone through and taken. Equipment that took me years to collect, he even used one of my own rucksacks to load gear into.
I did however find out who broke into my shed and I had a game of base ball lined up for him to take part in.
Anyway the sad part is, this guy turned out to be a local well known smack head thief etc.
Turned out his daughter played in the same football team as my daughter 🤷🏽♂️
I met him face to face while watching my daughter play football along with his daughter.
My daughter begged me not say or do anything to this individual for his daughters sake and all the other kids and parents.
I still don’t know how I never lost my temper 🤷🏽♂️ but I kept my composure to date.
I claimed off my house insurance luckily enough and replaced most of my gear along with a cash payout into my bank.
All I’m saying guys, always think three steps ahead so you don’t get caught breaking the poxy law doing some damage 🤔
I still see this individual around my local town and he knows I know and steers well clear of me.
All my gear secured out of sheds now as you all know, if they want to get into your shed or garage, the ba..ards will 😟
just happened to me thursday night early hours friday took out securitiy lights two locks on shed climbed 6ft fence an on to shed roof get in so nash titan 2 man camo gone brolly system gone 3 esp classic rods 3 diawa long cast reels 4 delkim txi nash takle box all stuff inside cooking gear list goes on lucky got insurance but headache sorting that lot out
My neighbour as a kid wired up 4 air horns to his garage that had his prized XR3I and fishing kit in it!
Got woken up at 2am once to the horns blaring out but they disturbed the thieves and everyone in the whole estate!!!!
I do sympathise and hate thrives but when will fishermen learn not to leave fishing gear in ya sheds ffs it costs a lot of money and unless insured is hard to replace wake up guys and get it in ya house if you haven't got room make some it saves on this
i got a warning from the police for securing my back garden and shed containing my fishing gear it looked like something out of the western front lol they told me if they got injured trying to break in i wouldbe in trouble and was told to remove the sharp implements i didnt and ours was the only shed along the road not broken into !
Old Bill bloody useless mate can't even find the 💩 on the end of their shoes please take no notice of the old bill if they can't help us all to help us get back our fishing tackle who can
I lost my kit in November never thought they could get over 7ft fence had 3 locks on the shed doors used bolt croppers. The police weren’t bothered really can’t afford to replace my Harrison rods and Diawa reels absolutely gutted
When Jan Porter's kit was stolen on a Saturday night, he got up early on the Sunday and trawled the local car boots, he got most of his kit back.
You feel violated after you've been burgled. That was the first word that came to mind after being burgled myself.
Shouldn't leave ya gear in a shed, i have mine in a utility room in my flat, no chance would it even go in my garage, even my ebike comes in my flat.... Sad getting ya gear nicked but totally preventable!
Get a German Shepherd !!! Amazing dogs and you'll feel much safer
A simple thought here: Imagine if you had lost your keys to where your kit is stored, how easily could you get into it? I had all my kit stolen because I didn't think it would happen to me either.
Had the same happen to me twice I was 14 yrs old at the time and my mum and dad and me lived in a ground floor flat my tackle wasn’t expensive brands like diawa or anything but Woolworths own brand but it took me ages to get it together and to have it stolen not once but twice was devastating not just because I had my tackle stolen but because there was some scummy twats in my mum and dads flat it took ages for us to feel safe again and at that time there wasn’t many if any insurance companies that insured fishing tackle. I’m now 62 yrs old but I can’t remember it as though it was yesterday. I hope you and your wife get over the feeling of having your property invaded by some thieving arseholes. All the best and congrats on the birth of your baby.👍👍👍👍👍🥂🥂🥂🥂
My decent stuff is in a cupboard in the house. Nets, bait, cradle and other low value stuff is in the shed.
Had a load of gear nicked I had good cctv what car they were in and a partial reg police shut the case 8 hrs later
The copper actually moaned that he couldn't read the reg number on the car
As someone that knows about locks that one on the pic you showed is a piece of shite you can open them with a bit of tin can. You need a lock that is bolt cutter proof also a light inside your house that has an outdoor pir sensor so it comes on when with the flood lights. Trust me it works
Another tip, fill any screw heads with metal filler or use allen bolts and hammer little ball bearings into the heads. to stop them being drilled out.
Almost like offering up a challenge 😂 all jokes aside this has gotta be heart breaking! Get some bushes grown along your fence no one wants to jump over a fence into a hawthorn.
Let's be honest at the end of the day the police will help you stop this from happening again but pretty much useless when it happens!
Absolute bastards and I guarantee you had high end gear not good for the average angler tho that’s there life screwed I dunno what I’d do if mine got nicked took me ages to get all I want
sorry to hear that i have 5 padlocks also i use Blink out door cameras so if anybody comes in i get warnings and alaarm on my phone
There are some scum out there with no respect for peoples properties.
I when we go away, we never post anything on social media.
Its such a shame that the scum who think it's OK to steal our hard earned tackle and the police can't do much if anything about it
Anyone recomment insurance companies for said people who have stuff in a shed that their contents are insured
Gutted for you mate , at least you and your wife was not harmed etc , tackle can replaced not people 👍
All my gear is shite, that's a good way of preventing theft 😅
Always leave it your gaff or in storage ,never a shed
This happened to me last year they took every think
Bloody hell mate that’s awful 😮
Had my shed broken into a few years ago. Didnt even realise until I went to find some tools and were gone. They also took my pike box as well with floats. 6months later realised they also stole my Nippers mini moto, when I went to get it out for him! Also had my Motorcycle stolen last summer, all caught on CCTV, kids posting on TikTok with it, but the police were not interested. Lucky got it back after 2 days!
Had my Fox Camo Low Level Carryall stolen from my car back in December 2023.
The Ring doorbell didn’t pick up the theft unfortunately as it was just outside the parameter of the motion sensor.
Inside the bag had an original Fox F box double that was loaded with over 20 years of tackle that i had collected most still in packets.
A set of 4 Fox SX alarms,a Fox black label swingers in a presentation set,a set of RH specimen hunter scales and another Fox camo bag full of about 12 tubs of pop ups and goo’s.
I reckon in total it was around £800 worth of tackle.
Thankfully my rods,reels,bivvy….etc were all safe in a locked garage.
So for the last 3 months i have been starting to build my terminal tackle up again.
To get me fishing again asap i got most stuff on a budget.I got a set of 3 mini micron X alarms and receiver second hand from Facebook Marketplace £100, a cheap NGT Carryall and budget terminal tackle including ready made rigs.
One silver lining is that my work had given me a £40 gift voucher which i could spend at Jack Frost Tackle shop in Crawley. So with this i bought a new Fox tackle box. One thing i did spend a lot on and treat myself to was a brand new set of Limited Edition 165 RH Specimen Hunter yellow dial scales 😏
Unfortunately i have learned the hard way never to leave anything in my car again even if it is in the boot covered up.
Sorry to hear mate. Used to fish 3 times a month on minimum 24 hour sessions all my free time basically, all my gear got stolen and haven’t had the heart to get back into it. That was 10 years ago finally got some gear back together and going to go for my first session this summer but it’s a killer man
Sorry to hear that. It really does suck..hope you enjoy your first trip back out soon 👌🏻
He’s always selling fishing gear
I keep my tackle in the house fuck the shed
Sorry to hear that bud! 😢 ignore the armchair police. Can’t understand anyone who would want to steal someone’s kit like that….Surely it must be people who are not anglers.
You have my sympathy mate. Back in May last year some low-life put the back window of my car in & had away with £1400+ worth of our stuff. None of it was top end but it was ours not theirs. Thanks to ebay I've replaced most of it,but I've only been out once since the theft. Completely lost my mojo.
Hope you get back on the bank soon. Maybe another match against Luke?
Merv.
This happened to me years ago, the stuff that my uncles & parents brought me hurt the most. as they have passed away. BUT I had the police come round with just a landing net handle…….” Do you recognised this “. Yes I said, “ take the bung out of the bottom & stick your finger up the handle” they pulled out a laminated sheet with my name and address on it, ….. Bang to rights, sentenced but a lot of my stuff sold for drugs 🤬
Really sorry this has happened 😮 Utter scumbags.I live on my own so am able to keep my gear indoors,except nets.Also it is covered under contents insurance.Best security though is a rottweiler.
Sorry to here this ..gutted for you
Keep the fishing gear in the house, and less important "crap" in the shed. Everybody has crap in their house. Just secure what's more important to you where it's safer....
It isn't practical for every angler particularly with priorities like raising a family, but if you can keep your tackle indoors (even if it's only some more valuable items like your bite alarms or reels) in a spare bedroom, basement or loft space that can help. Unfortunately garden shed's, garages, lean to's etc tend to be less secure places and as pointed out, no place can be 100% secure.
Sorry to hear that you had all of your tackle stolen iot must be sickening. One of the things that I do now apart from the hightened security etc. is to keep a full inventory, including makes and how much it costs to replace, of what I've got right down the the contents of my tackle box. its a pain to do but it is really helpfull whenyou have to go to you insurance company and detail whats gone. I've also marked all the expensive stuff with a product call "Datatag". Its normally used mainly for motorcycles but its veri easily hidden and easy to identify. The location of my Datatag marking is also listed on my inventory.
Absolutely gutted for you pal hope your all ok. These people are scum of the earth 😡. Can you recommend a good insurance company for fishing tackle as I really want to cover mine but my only concern is I don’t have receipts for most of my gear and I’m concerned that if the worst was to happen they wouldn’t pay out as a result.
I know how you feel fella. My gear got nicked whilst i was in hospital. Intensive care after a work related accident. I was gutted . luckily i had insurance. They even broke into my flat.. nicked a £1.000 stereo.two air rifles, tv ,dvd player hoover.. evn the light bulbs then Shit in my bath. You actually got it lightly
My gear is stowed in the loft, bit of a bugger mauling a 2 man HQ up there but bags and rod hold-all are easy and I know some toe rag ain’t having it off with my chit.
Hope you both recovering ok from the ordeal?
The audacity of these thieves to come back again in a short space!
Had my shed broken into couple years back and had my gear lined up outside ready to take but they must of got startled at some point in the process and left them there!
Although I was lucky I still felt angry and pissed off!
I am able to find a bit of room in the house for the gear since.
Great advice on the security 👌🎣
Reolink Go camera
Not that it makes it any better but I had fishing tackle stolen off a boat which included a nice Penn multiplier reel. Friend of mine had his rods stolen from his car.
Hi mate first of sorry for your loss 😢I understand 100% HOW you feel had house break in just before Xmas was only out for about an hour and half came back in doors all open things chucked all over the place fishing tackle nicked, clothes, bit of savings for bills and all that and a lot more nicked I have to say this even if I don't want to, but if someone wants something they will find a way in not nice I know but it's true mate ,do hope that one day the 💩 gets caught for all us.we all save hard for everything in life and yes it bloody well hurts when it happens to us all the best anyway ps just had to have my say cheèrs
I have been a victim of theft from a garage. but my tackle was not taken and thousands of pounds of my dad's power tools were not taken .I think was somebody who knows me as they only took my bikes.
But when I was a lot younger I had saved for months and had brand new gear stolen from the bank so I now go to places that are safer places road sides busier area...
keep it in the house if you can
Gutted for you pal I have cameras on my garage they aren't getting in without me knowing we have a dog all so are cameras a linked to are phone's but yes they are scum and definitely some one who watches you not some on your channel they will have be watching you going fishing find your local smack heads chances it in there house as my ma
8 found out and went round and had a good talk with them
Sorry to hear wot happened mate not nice at all there’s a lot of people/scrum bags about always looking at taking advantage of opportunities and other peoples hard work for there gain
Hope you n wife can eventually relax again in your own home good luck mate 🤞🏻
Get the shed alarmed and get a trail camera stashed in the shed .There's some scum about I've had a few grands worth nicked myself from my mother's garage it's not nice.
i know your pain. did my workshop and then my garage all my fishing gear and my bike. and 21 grand in tools.
If that is your shed in the pic yer the thing is not safe u are on youtube and that shed looks easy to get in see you are online u should have a safe shed and proper locks
Isn't my shed in the pic don't worry. 👌🏻
Would never leave my tackle in a shed etc, locked up in the garage, alarmed with my car parked in front of if. I know everyone doesn’t have a garage but I would take it in the house if not.
Commenting before watching it all 😜 I address this as unfortunately not everyone has that luxury
@@nuffinbutfishinglol, no I pressed the finish button before I had finished writing 😂
@@LeeHadley haha no worries 😁
Hi Joe, I'm really sorry to hear about this. Like you said, it's the worst nightmare anyone can go through. It's a violation as well, like you said on an emotional and safety level. I hope they catch the scum bags!
Take care Leo
So sad... but you've definitely prompted me to add security features to my shed I've just bought! I'll be doing the same!
sorry to here about ur kit and what you went to though mate there are to many scumbags in the world content and some great advice to keep ur kit safe keep up the great content as a new sub this is great advice
Thank you for subbing. 😁 much appreciated!
@@nuffinbutfishing any time pal keep up the good work
Happened to me years ago, 15yrs of kit gone.... didn't have freebies to get it back though 😂
Great video Joe. 👍🏼 It’s certainly got me looking at more ways to secure my tackle! 🔒
…And that was a lovely catch too! Newton Park is a nice place to fish. 🎣 Tight lines my friend.
Gutted you and your wife have gone through this! Horrible to see nice hard working people suffer at the hands of scum bags! Hope the three of you are well 👍
I lucky to live in safe sea side town in Cornwall. But I still do keep gear in the shed
Best way is to tell you misses how much carp gear cost and she will def be guarding it
Best wishes Joe. Awful trauma for you and your family. Hopefully you don't have to go through it again, cracking carp too 👏
Hope you get over the emotional aspects of it soon. Don’t let them stop you sharing / doing the things you love to do. All being well your videos lead you to riches that lead to a house with garage etc.
Burgled once when I was asleep in bed always had a dog since then, if you can have a German Shep thives will stay well away, a house with a GSD is theft proof.
Feel for ya man im the same got things in my gear that aint worth alot but couldn't eva replace and have a centimental value
