Story
Billy moved house 4 weeks ago! He went to get his fishing kit from his old garage last night for a session today (birthday trip) and someone has stole EVERYTHING. They haven't just stole around £2000 worth of gear built up over a lifetime, some with sentimental value from his late father ..... they've stolen a hobby!
having just moved house, having one young kid and another on the way he's got slim chance of starting up again any time soon, and is already talking about having to ask for gear for Christmas!
how is it right that someone can just ruin someone else's release! And nobody wants a free weekend ruined with house chores when you could be down the lake!
so lets try and raise £50 for a rod, reel, bank stick, hooks and a float or £500 to get some way to where he was before,
The only saving grace he has is that they stole a bag of stinky bait too, and when billy last picked it up there was something alive in it.... so let's hope whatever it was gave them a nip when they opened it up!

My father also introduced me to the hobby, but I rarely get a chance to go these days. Here's hoping you get back out soon enough.
