I have to say that although I've lost 2 cheap bite alarms on the rocks in Fuerteventura, I've actually found more than I've lost - floats (I always have a quick look at the windward end of any pond or lake or take a small spinner to anything out of landing net range); half a rod, for which I made a lost tip; umpteen swivel clips; discarded hook lengths that still look OK;
baiting needles and hooks; bank sticks and tops and a sunken reel that scrubbed-up OK; a sunken large landing net, ditto. All without trying due to my eagle-eyed partner and because we take our dog with us and always scout for discarded hooks around the peg before starting.
Can't grumble really.
