Hey guys,

I know this is a long shot but I thought I'd give it a shot. Smitty and I saw a gentleman loading his kayak and leaving right around the time we were launching into the Guadalupe at Cypress Cove/Rebecca Creek. I didn't get a chance to talk to him before he left.

As I hopped into the yak, I noticed he left his crate. Due to all of the people around, I figured his best chance at getting it back would be for me to set it in the truck and post it up. I did leave my phone number with 2 people at the ramp who were bank fishing, just in case he came back for it but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't/didn't.

It has some very distinguishable items in it that I will gladly return if they can be identified. I wouldn't say it is expensive but it would still bum me out if I lost it.

So, help me out here - if you know anyone who was at Rebecca Creek/Cypress Cove boat ramp at the Guadalupe on Sunday, ask them if they are missing a crate. The guy told someone else there that he had a 1.5hr drive home. Austin?

Feel free to email me if needed to identify or ask about it.

Class act Shawn... not many would go to that trouble. Decent seeing your efforts to make something right. ^5

Defiantly a classy thing to do hope you find the owner

Ya never know if that person you help out can return the favor ten fold. Plus, It's the least I could do.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

I can't imagine how relieved that guy will feel when he gets his stuff back. That's freakin' integrity at the top of its game, Shawn! Coming from a submarine background, I know a thing or two about integrity. Hope you inspire others to follow suit. You are more than welcomed to ride with me in my boat at Canyon anytime, Pal. Say the word.

You might try posting this on www.luv2paddle.com/
Good luck to ya.

Perhaps also on TKF , even if they aren't members there someone there may know of them.

Hey guys,

I just received an email from the rightful owner and hope to be returning the item soon.

Thanks for the help guys, and TFF for allowing me to post this.

Shawn, it is good to see that there are still people like you out there!!!

Way to go Shawn!!! I would have thought this would be a "needle in a haystack" kind of thing. Shows once again the power of the TFF!!!! Nice to see there are people still willing to do the right thing out there.

Way to go Shawn!! Great thing that youve done!!!!

Why cant we have more fishermen that will do things like Shawn?
that is a good thing you did!

It was the least I could do guys...but thanks for the kind words.

I think I am going to put my name/number one a few more pieces of gear, especially yak-gear as it is easier to lose.

Tight lines to all,
SQ
