Bass Smacker Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 Ok OK most people I like. But its the thieves I hate. I fish these ponds that are way out of the way and you can only get to them by walking way to far or riding a bike. Iv been riding my bike out there about 3 years. Yesterday i was bringing in some stuff and my bike was gone i asked about it and every one looked at me and said Isent it in your truck . Some not so kind person came into my garadge walked past my wifes bike my kids bike all my tools and a troling motor and took my bike. now its not that the bike was one of those that cost 400 dollars. It was a gift and i think that cost 60 bucks. Its the point of it all. Its was mine.........................mine mine mine > not theres. to boot now i'm all freeked out that they can come into my house and take something and nobody had a clue and now they know what i have in my garage. Dose and one know how much crack one can get for a snap on tool box or a troling motor?? Quote
bassattack1990 Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 that sucks....i understand fully i had my wallet and cellphone stole at school. there was like a dallor and a phone card in the wallet it just the point that it was mine and the wallet was a gift i just dont understand people.......... > Quote
BucketmouthAngler13 Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 O had a jon boat stolen a few years ago. 14ft and in perfect condition. I had it tied up to a tree in a creek behind our house, and one day it was gone. :'( I wish i never left it there. Now i have to spend $600 if i want another one. Quote
fishbear Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 That why I padlock my trailer even at home, the tms all have locks on them, and I have a 15 ft. logging chain, I wrapp around a tree and around the trailer, up thru the handles for the boat, and padlocked again. The funny thing is, here at home, I have never had a problem with anyone messing with anything. It is always when I am somewhere else.... like at the lake, and I am out on the boat fishing... My dad used to say, liars and thieves are one thing I can not stand,, and they all should be shot on sight. I think he was on to something..... I feel for ya man, it just is so wrong. Quote
northgabassfisher Posted October 16, 2006 Posted October 16, 2006 that sucks I work at a tackle store and not to long ago we had some one try to steal a bunch of lucky craft lures and stuff it totaled out to around $100, like you said I hate thieves. I hope you get your stuff back and they lock that guy up for awhile. > Quote
Bass Smacker Posted October 16, 2006 Author Posted October 16, 2006 It just sucks. The more I think about it the madder I get. What is wrong with these people? Don't they know better??

Don't they ask where did that bike / boat / wallet or cell phon come from i don't recall buying that for you if my kid came up with something like that id make him take it back and bust his but JM Can't assume it was a kid. Not these days,..like you said, how much crack can you get..... Actually, sounds like someone needed a ride. With all the other "good" stuff there, why take a $60 bike? And why not the wifes bike?

Super User roadwarrior Posted October 17, 2006 Super User Posted October 17, 2006 I am so sorry for you. I live near a sewer (Memphis) and I know EXACTLY how you feel. I don't want any of these animals breaking into my house, but I fantasize about it...DOA...They deserve nothing less. Quote

Your description of that misguided crook reminds me of the thief who entered my house in Sayreville, NJ. Obviously a youngster, he broke into my den through the sliding glass door and passed by a treasure trove of unlocked rifles, shotguns and bows. Instead, he grabbed two 6-packs of beer from my garage, but left one 6-pack on my ping-pong table so he could ****** a handful of arrows from my quiver. I can picture him running across my backyard in the darkness of night with a handful of razor-sharp broadheads!!! Roger Quote
Guest avid Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I don't know what the law is in your state. But in many states burglarizing a garage that is attached to a house is considered a violent felony. Very serious crime. If somehow this guy gets caught and is not a minor, you can smack him pretty hard. Just make sure the DA knows your serious I too had a jon boat stolen. It still makes me want to go postal. Quote
Josh VanderMeer Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 man i hate that so much .... i got my bike stolen wen i left it outside a convienience store for like 5mins and it was gone ....stuff at my high school is stolen every freaking day its so gay Quote
nboucher Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Right after college, I was living in a cabin whose back porch literally overhung a slow-moving river. I'd come home from work, grab a rod and cast off the porch. Or at least I did until I got home one day and all my fishing stuff and my favorite sleeping bag (which was spread out on a cot) were gone. I didn't fish again for more than 20 years . . . Quote
Lady Bass Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I had pool floats stolen out of my pool this summer.what get's me is that my yard is fenced in so they had to jump the fence late at nite when we we're all sleeping.now I don't leave anything outside at nites now and just leave on the lamposts and censor lights.sorry to hear your loss about your bike.

Dane Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 As Dubya would say.. Fool me once...sh-shame on you... Fool me twice...ya..ya..Fool me once, I can't be fooled again. nah really, too bad man.. Quote
GAMEOVER Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Not to promote violence in anyway but, if you stole from me id kick your teeth in.. then id pray for you. I'm from one of the biggest gutters in the country, Detroit. Quote

Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted October 17, 2006 Super User Posted October 17, 2006 I FEEL YOUR PAIN. LAST SUMMER I WAS SELLING A 16' PRINCECRAFT WITH A 25 HP EVINRUDE. ONE EVENING MY WIFE AND I WENT TO ADD SOME INFO SHEETS. WHEN WE PULLED UP I NOTICED THE MOTOR WAS GONE. SOME JERK HAD CUT THE CHAIN AND WALKED OFF WITH THE MOTOR. THE INSURANCE PAID FOR THE MOTOR BUT IT STILL INFURIATES ME EVERY TIME I THINK ABOUT IT. Quote

Roger Yeah, and then if he fell on the broadheads, he would sue you for being injured on your property. And I'll bet he'd have a decent chance of winning the suit. Many laws have been turned upside down. Many have forgotten that laws should be created in the service of justice, not to serve some lawyer's pocketbook. Quote
Guest the_muddy_man Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 TAKE IT TO THE POLICE VIOLENCE GETS YOU NOWHERE I grew up hard and fought my whole life end result I got shot and that opened my eyes I have lived a non violent life for over 14 years now I dont need to prove to anyone how tough I am The most important quote I ever read FATHER FORGIVE THEM THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO Quote
FIN-S-R Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 Had my deer cam stolen last week. I just dont get it. I had another cam set up to keep an eye on my feeder cam and stand. Got him on the 2nd cam, posted his pics in all the local gas stations stealing. I hate thieves Quote
anglerintraining Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I guess we all have a story--had my new digital camera stolen a few months back when I left it under a table @ a restaurant. Went right back, & "No...we haven't seen it"...right...no one seated there since I left. It IS infuriating--I was SO MAD, but we can't give these crooks any more power than we already have. We didn't choose to have them steal from us, BUT we can choose to let them alter our view of mankind. I think the hardest part is that we don't get to "vent" at the right person, and we really want to let them have it. My parents were pretty much ruined financially by a scam artist a few years back, & I can't tell you the level of anger/hatred I felt toward him. He's in prison, thank goodness, after stealing almost $1 million--all from senior citizens. Now my dad works the local elections occasionally for $7/hr at age 82, and we support them financially. HOWEVER, we all have chosen to move on. The real treasure is my parents themselves, and thankfully I still have them. The other things are just...things. They just are in someone else's custody now! When you're ready, life is infinitely better focusing on the good, and I'm grateful to say there's been a LOT of wonderful people in my life...even the kind people who I just meet in passing--like a lot of you guys on this site! Bass Smacker, hang in there--don't let it get you down for long. Quote
bassholebuster14 Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 i pulled a bike out of the middle of a lake took it home fixed it up and tried to sell it for $30 well ges someone didnt want to pay the cash for it. havent seen it sence :'( (PS i had to mow my lawn 3 times insted to get the money for my reel) Quote
Bassassasin12 Posted October 17, 2006 Posted October 17, 2006 I feel for you bass smacker. I recently fished with a member from the board, camofish, and I biked down to the ramp because it is so close to my house and I biked down there with two rigs, a big tackle bag, and a bunch of other stuff in the bag. I put my bike way out of the way underneath a tree and bushes and made sure it was barely visible. camo pulled up and we were off. When we got back We loaded the boat and Camo was gonna put my boat in his car, and I was siked about that. Go back to get my bike and what do you know, its not there anymore. Now I have to walk everywhere when I go fishing it is really annoying and now I have to save up for a new bike, which interferes with my tackle money. > Quote
