I shouldn’t be surprised but I am. While out fishing on Thursday someone stole my Kayak dolly and bungee cords! I used to hide them behind a rock at the edge of the woods. I say I’m surprised because I have been going down to this pond for 25 years and always met some of the nicest, friendly people. It’s very secluded and not a lot of people know about it. And about the nice people down there, I was lucky enough to have a kid that looked to be around 19 there at the time I told him about my dolly and before I could ask he offered to help me carry it up to where the cars are, it’s a very rocky and rough 300 foot walk to the cars, I could not have made it alone. His mother was there also and I made it a point to tell her she had a good kid! Oh ya, the new dolly arrives tomorrow and I’m going to strap it to the back of my kayak behind me when I go out from now on.🎣😎

It's sad but true. When I park at some spots I try to keep anything of value outa sight. Some will break in no matter what. 🤬

Always worry about leaving my truck alone somewhere. Thank God there was a good guy around to help you
Gary I’m sorry you’re having to deal with a thief which is the lowest scum on earth. It leaves you with a sick feeling. I know, I’ve been in on losing stuff to thieves. I’m fortunate I have a couple of places that I have permission to enter and don’t have to worry there. It’s the public places that concerns me.
I never leave anything of value in my truck when I go to these places to launch. Hope karma comes down hard on the worthless scum. Have a great day 😎👍
Thank you Andy, not really a big deal, $50.00 to replace, but it’s the principle of the thing, I don’t have a lot of money and will never afford to retire, but I “work” to earn what little I have!

It's just the point that people think they can do what they want and no respect for others.

Well if that ain't a bite in the ***. Sorry to hear that Gary. Maybe the thief will use it someday at the same location. And a little payback would be nice.
Wife works at a clothing store, and yesterday someone came in took a set of new clothes off the rack, put them on and left.
Cheaper to loose some clothes then hire someone to maintain the changing room i guess. Thieves are everywhere.
Thanks Plumbob, yes they are.🎣😎

I hate thieves. For future reference I have an idea for you.
There is submergible locating devices that are not very expensive. They can be attached to crabbing equipment or anything you want to find. They connect to your phone etc and you can track them.
For future reference maybe research the devices I’m suggesting and then the cops or you can locate and confiscate your private property. Be nice to hide the devices and never deal with this sort of thing again. Can attach them to any of your gear so thieves will be busted.
