Specialist fishing insurance for anglers, fishing teams and fishing coaches
Fishing can be a safe sport, and with the right kind of preparation and safety precautions in place, it’s a fantastic activity for even the youngest of children. Yet when water is so close at hand, there are always risks, whether injuries to yourself or other people, as well as damage to expensive equipment. If you’re a fishing instructor, there’s also the risk that someone could hurt themselves when fishing under your guidance.
