    Default Thieves at Grenada


    First time to ever fish the lake and somebody made off with my tie-downs. The next day, my buddy had his adapter stolen off the truck.

    I went out Fri. afternoon at the local marina at Lake Brownwood and left my stringer and minnow bucket and came back Sat. morning and it had been stolen. It takes a real lowlife to steal someones stringer and monnow bucket. Just shows you what this world is coming to.

    It's not just at the boat ramps, we have a cabin at Grenada and it has been broken into about 15 times. One time they took our stove and refrigerator.

    They got the tie-downs at Greysport (south) and the plug at the Gums ramp. I usually put them in the truck and lock it but I had already locked the truck and just put them in the bed, lucky I locked up my motor-toter.

    There's an abundance of thieves everywhere, and boat ramps are just one of many prime areas that's handy for them to perform. Fortunately, I haven't had anything taken, but if it can be stolen, they're gonna have to cut a lock, or bust some glass.........that's hitch, trailer, and anything else. Sorry you had this happen. It gives a sour first impression of the lake.

    I go to Grenada Landing frequently to eat lunch. One day last week, there were two trucks/trailers in the parking lot. One (from TN) had several assembled jig poles hanging out the back of the pickup........not another soul around. They may have been taken later.......hope they weren't, but if they had've been mine.......I wouldn't expect to see them when I got back.

    I once left a cooler with 6 walleyes in it between 27 and 29 inches in it at a marina for a couple hours because we were coming back to fish more. While we were gone someone stole the cooler and the fish. I hope they choked on em. A couple weeks later my buddy and I were fishing the marina again and a guy stops by to fish. While We were fishing the guy mentions that his buddy found a cooler here with these monster walleyes in it and took it. He was telling this story laughing and like he was proud of it. I casually asked what his buddies name was and the guy turns and looks at me and my buddy who are both intently looking at him with blood in our eyes. The guy turns tail and bolts. He was probably the thief. It wasn't worth chasing him and I have never seen him again. It was worth seeing the look on the idiots face when he realized it was our cooler he was bragging about. Moron!

    Stuff like that really PO's me big time. I had my boat stolen once. When I got it back, a lot of damage was done to it. I have my pistol permit and my pistol with me whenever I head out now. It is a sad reflection on just how lowdown some folk are!
