I went fishing at Denison Dam today with couple of friends. When I drove off the parking lot on TX side by the second stair cage, I left my rods and reels behind: two 11' surf rod, one 9' customer built. One 11' surf rod with reel, one without; 9' rod also had reel on it.
I may never see my rods and reels again. Just hoping that some one found them and keep them safe for me.
Send me a PM if any one had any information. Thanks!

Sure sorry to hear this. Hope you do get an honest person to be looking for you to return. However, I lost 2 surf rods w/reels and one $200 set-up all in a red Bass Pro rod/reel zipped case. This was at the old Denver's bait house in Surfside while getting a quart of live shrimp. This was several years ago and lesson learned when we now stop, we always leave a person at the truck when transporting. Couldn't believe it but do remember a small white pick up that just pulled up at the bait house for a second and took off. I didn't realize it until we got to our favorite spot on beach. We looked for hours and gave up. I wouldn't doubt that they were sold/or pawned. All told $500. lesson learned. You might check a pawn shop. Again sorry to hear about this.

Thank you for your kind word.
Mine were not stolen. I just totally forgot them, and drove off leaving them behind. It's my own fault. No one else to blame.

That is a bummer.
Hopefully someone grabbed them and just did not know who to return them too.
Have you thought about posting an ad in craigslist? They have a lost and found.
Someone maybe lookin for you just not here on TFF.

Maybe post a little sign near where you left them?
The same guys fish that place and many know each other. I am sure whoever found them told some of his buddies about it and they told some of theirs...
Someone knows where your stuff is.
I have found that 95% of folks are good and want to do the right thing. That would include returning the gear to its rightful owner.
Good luck man.
