This may have been discussed here before, not sure. Anyway, I read recently that there has been a problem with catalytic converters being stolen at boat ramps on several lakes, including Rayburn. Anyone on here had that happen to them?

Not boat ramp related but we have a rash of these in my town. We are currently working several different rings that do this all day, everyday across the state.

I had never heard of it until Hawkeye's was stolen. Never even thought it was an issue. He cranked up the Dodge after we loaded my boat and dang was that V-8 Hemi LOUD!

Anyone on here had that happen to them? It has happened at several ramps around Rayburn. Groups of people coming up from Houston to hit several places at a time.

So I would have to assume that they use a sawzall, how are other people around the ramp not hearing this racket being made? Those ramps are bound to be busy.
