Racoon! Don`t laugh  I was once on a slip with a few other guys at Tawakoni and we couldn't understand why minnows were coming up missing that were left overnight and even our catches.Everyone was upset with each other until the culprit showed his hand.It turned out to be one rather large RACOON! I personally had a tug of war with this rascal after he tried to take my stringer of a few Crappie that I had tied to the B dock @ Anchor Inn Marina and left it to go fish the A dock.When I returned to add more fish to the stringer,he had gotton underneath the boardwalk ,taken the stringer out of the water and was having LUNCH! except some of his tackle was gone too. Good point but my theory was for the crappie thief only

I use to keep my unused minnows in a 5 gallon bucket. They kept coming up missing and I could not figure out what was happening. I sprinkled some flour around the bucket and that his how I found out it was a coon getting them.
