Travel Insurance when Angling & Fishing

Some conditions may apply to travel insurance when fishing:

Fishing and angling – travel insurance specified item option

For anglers and fishermen looking to protect their equipment, the option to specify items for cover allows for an additional layer of security for fishing rods and gear beyond the standard luggage and personal effects limit if specifically added under the specified item limit option available on certain travel insurance plans.

This specified item limit option is available under the Essentials, Comprehensive, and Annual Multi-Trip plans, which provides cover for items without a rate of depreciation if the items are listed under the specified item option. Proof of purchase is required for this added travel insurance cover. If a existing medical condition is exacerbated by your taking part in a fishing expedition, your medical travel insurance may be inhibited.

You may wish to consider appropriate safety equipment when you go fishing. If you are travelling on a boat you may wish to consider that your boat has enough fuel, life vests, oars, and that your radio receiver is functioning.

Annual Multi-Trip Ttavel insurance plan: Fishing and angling multiple times in a year.

Travel Insurance Saver's policies also provide cancellation cover for prepaid travel arrangements, which may provide travel insurance cover through a range of benefits. For those planning multiple angling and fishing trips within a year, the Annual Multi-Trip plans may offer a practical solution.

In summary, Travel Insurance Saver's travel insurance online for angling and fishing offers extensive travel insurance cover options dependant on the trip specific details and may include cover for angling and fishing for fishing enthusiasts.
