How much?

Actually Phil there are very few fishermen compared to the general public that require rescueing as fishermen tend to know the tides/areas etc.

Yes but fisherman put them selves at risk its not a accident like it is for general public. Never been rescued but a few times though sod it one more chuck.
 
A few years back a member of the public thought 2 fisherman needed rescuing from there and phoned the emergency services , if remember rightly one of the national news papers covers the story and said it cost about 40 grand
 
How do u no it was a genuine mistake just look at early this year roker pier police incident van amulance hellicopter the lot for how lads fishing and u are saying that the public should no better how should have put that bill the lads how was fishing man
 
Does your family have more common sense than everybody else then ? How can you say they should be charged ? Accidents do happen mate and the rescue services are there to provide the FREE service
 
When people decide to risk their lives sailing their expensive "toys" around the world, no one seems to bring up the cost of rescue when they get into trouble. Instead they're regarded as "heroes"
Just thought I'd get my pennyworth in.
 
Accidents happen, fact. Without sounding disrespectful what about the fishermen that put their life at risk in stupid weather and the ones that have lost their lives due to that ? Look at the people that affects, loved ones and freinds. The emergency services are out in foul weather putting their lives at risk with a possibility of losing their lives and leaving loved ones and friends behind all because some so called proper angler wants a bag of fish to put a report on here and the likes. Anglers are the worst offenders for putting themselves at risk, all for what ? A pb ! Very hypocritical post I think.
 
Not going off track, just making a point of how pointless that post was. Just remember what you've said if you ever need their help mate.
 
No matter what we are all entitled to our opinion and that was mine, thanks for the compliment don't often get called unbelivable
