It'll be a nightmare on ss too as they'll come flying around the round end and up the seaward side of the pier towards the beach. It's bad enough now never mind when they build this. This is bad news

Bloody hell I never heard of that one Dave! Is there any way to object to this proposal?
Deano, quite gutted for you. Think I would have made a jump for his boat if he was that close. It takes a while to build up your gear and to see it vanish in second would be hard to take.
I am gonna make a conscious effort to fish with the ratchet on more often.

Unlucky mate. Could happen to anyone of us at some time.
Hopefully someone will reel it in and PM you.

This really anoys me. Why when you can see people fishing would you deliberatly head towards them or be in that close anyway. I fish the river a lot as its usaully easy fishing apart from the a holes who think they own the river. And the best part of it is they have been fishing themselves in their poxy little bath tubs ! It seems to be a source of great amusement for them to cut in at the last minute and when you ask for them move out your met with hand gestures and sniggering.
I wonder what they would think if someone damaged their boat when its berthed in the marina ? I imagine they wouldn't be happy ! So for all the boat owners out there use a bit of common sense man eh.
Deano I hope someone is lucky enough to drag your kit up for you mate, I know I would be like a man possesed if it was me.

Sorry to read about what happened, I hope some one gets it back for you.
Anyone deliberately doing that not only risks damaging your gear but also runs the real risk of getting line fouled around his prop.. That can damage the seals that keep water out the boat, or on an outboard which the rib probably had it keeps the oil in the gearbox and water out. Repairs to the engine could cost him as much as the loss of your gear that he’s caused. No one wins; any decent skipper will go out of his way to avoid causing hassle like that.
It can be difficult to see a line when you’re on a boat, you’re looking out for other boats, stuff floating in the water, trying to keep to the right part of the channel and occasionally suffering from glare off the windscreen and water.

Thats bad news as we dont ever want jet-ski/s flying around the area where we fish as that would be a disaster

Gutted for you mate, I've had a few near misses myself and a jet ski went into my line nearly look the blokes ear off, the lifeboat at 1 o'clock in the morning didnt her him coming with my hat on and hood up in a winters gale and also a Kayaker last year on a sunny day luckly managed to hang onto the rod each time.

I'm afraid your wrong there matey,as I boat owner and user I know props are a costly doo,and no one in there right mind would risk replacing one for a quick giggle at someone's misfortune of losing there rod,I do feel for anyone who has lost there tackle like that,but to be fair the boat owner is well within in his rights to go close to the pier,even pull up and jump on land,and most of the piers around our coastline ban fishing,including my local(south shields)the authorities just turn a blind eye to it,so who is really at wrong

Listen mate there is no ban on sheilds peir its a public pier and as for you saying you can come as close as you want this isn't the case I too also used to own a boat just because you have a boat it doesnt mean you own the sea and can do as you please also 18lb mono isn't going to cost a new prop
