Got Robbed

Post by Salmonseeker »

Hey guys be on the look out for me, Some one broke into my Essex Jct garage last night and stole all my fishing lure, spoons and sticks.
Over $8,000.00 in tackle
5 boxes in spoon caddies full
1 blue soft side tackle bag with 4 plastic containers inside filled with rapalas and other walley gear.
Army back pack and other military equipment
2 ea Diawa reels

PM me if you have any info on this.

Thanks

I hope they catch the guy. It should be easy (to catch) if it was a druggie trying to make a quick buck as there are only so many places you can sell tackle...

loser to steal that stuff. messing with anybody's tools, wife, kids, or means of relaxing is disgusting to me. I don't know how it is for you but it would put me out of commission for years if my tackle was stolen. it's taken me years to accumulate what I have now.

that makes me sick. I really hope you get your stuff back.

This really sucks. I've had tools and fishing equipment stolen, but nothing like this. If we all get the word out, the rat(s) will try to sell the stuff, and hopefully to an LCU member.

What low life... I hope the next time they go to rip somebody off, the owner catches them and gives them some quick justice like maybe with a 12 ga or 40 cal.

Sorry to hear your news Don; but I hope the word gets out and they get their just dues.

Don, watch Craigslist and ebay. Hopefully they will be stupid enough to try and sell some of your gear online.
