Has anyone ever been on a fishing trip that they’ve had to take our travel insurance for? Any recommendations if so?

Is “world travel insurance” the name of an insurance company?

I've used Allianz in the past, and made a successful claim for broken gear (Stellas and high end rods) and also cancelled days of fishing due to weather.

The adventure pack is what covers for this. However, if there are individual items above a certain value you need to list them at the time of purchase. Can't remember what that value was but I use this for all my overseas trips.
