We helped recover some stolen rods before..
Do it again.
Please contact Fishers or the police if you have any information

BREAK IN - Just a quick update to address the rumors. On Thursday night our store Fishers Direct was broken into. We lost quite a bit of kit that included items such as;
Hardy, Sage, Greys & Vision Fly Rods
Hardy, Sage, Vision & Airflo Fly Reels
Shimano spinning reels
Sea and spin rods/kits
And various other pieces of tackle
There's also been a bit of damage to the property, our till and computer systems, this will no doubt mean a little disruption over the coming days/weeks until we get back up on our feet.
If anyone has any information they want to share, anonymously if preferred, please give me a shout.
I'd like to personally express my sincerest thanks to the friends that rallied round to secure the property, deal with the police, forensics, alarm companies and clean up. You know who you are and my words can not express how grateful and indebted to you I am. You'll never know how much that meant and how lucky I feel to have such great friends.
My aim is to get back to business as usual asap, however, I ask for a little patience and time to catch up with orders and get re-stocked.

Looking forward to seeing you all again soon.
Thank you!
Mike
