Now that all of us have our equipment together, I was told by my insurance agent to take alot of photos of it and give him a copy and put the other in a safe place. This is the only way to prove just how much tackle and equipment we do have! It's also a good idea to open Plano lids and photograph the contents. As an earlier post said, "no one would believe just how many tackle boxes I have!" It's amazing the amount we aquire and I recommend doing this while the wife isn't watching......

It only took once to have my tackle box stolen. That wasn't the worst of it my wife told me the week earlier to take photo's of everything. Needless to say I didn't! Since than I keep every receipt and take photos of all the tackle and rods/reels. The important thing is to keep the receipts in a place your wife can't find them.

Good luck and tight lines!

Excellent idea! I'm an insurance broker and always advise people to do this. I know myself how much it's worth because I just can't walk by tackle in a store and NOT buy any! Another thought is to use a video camera. By doing it this way you can also verbally discribe things as well. The toughest thing after a loss is to remember what you owned.
By having either pictures or a video is an excellent way of proving what you owned and reminding yourself just what you did own.
