There were 30-40 chatterbaits stolen from Bass Pro yesterday. Thanks for leaving some for the rest of us, losers.

A friend that works there told me someone stole all of the megabass jerkbaits too. Jerks. I went to buy a few and they were all gone.

Seems that just being honest is to much to ask for!

what no cameras..... inside job? Cameras don't help so much when people are wearing masks. By the time you notice something is missing, the thief is long gone. Going back and watching the video doesn't reveal much for the police. Shoplifting has become a very costly and frustrating problem for my store these days.

Must be why they donโt carry anything expensive at the San Antonio store, too many scumbag thieves.

Covid approved thieving masks required I was in BPS today and they do not have a mask requirement any longer or at least the signage is gone.

The days of facial recognition are coming to retailers to help identify habitual shoplifters.

I guess this is what happens when you over price your lures....
Chatterbait customs fished just as well as the jackhammer.....well...that was the case until the jackhammer came out and then they redesigned the chatterbait custom when the jackhammer came out for whatever reasons ๐ค๐คทโโ๏ธ
Try picasso's bladed jigs if you havent yet....they start up about just as quick. Jackhammers stay down a little better, but beside that its really a wash.....in my opinion.
