He sure aint no fisherman. Guys who use ambassodors put line on their reels not string. 99.99% sure them goods are hot.

Get'him!

I got $5.00 that says it stolen.. I mean borrowed.

This is like watching a good detective movie! Hope justice is served...hey Ronnie you need to quit fishing and go into law enforcement!

trying not to assume anything, but it's kinda hard.

Will have to agree. Would be interesting to see if the po-po can do anything about this. I normally wouldn't care (all that much) but my father and I have had our stuff taken before. Hate me some thieven sissies.

i see one really big screen in the background of all those graphs. I imagine its either a bird 1197 or one of the Lowrance 113,or 110... someone got ripped.

Law enforcement.. heck no- then I would start looking like Mike Keenan!! ewwwwwww !!!!

Like they will really do anything, the cops in this town are too busy giving out tickets generating money so the Chief of Police can go get another DWI. We had a work Van window broke, they were kids though. Windows Broke all the time up and down our road. The cops would not even throw the almost 20 year old young Man sniffing around my at the time 14 year old daughter in jail. They do not care

what are yall talking about thats my post!

"not being serious"

HaHa about the string comment. I put 10 pound "cord" on my reels. haha. This is too funny but more sad than funny. Whoever found this is exactly right, the guy couldnt catch a fish off of his plate in red lobster. Nothing worse than thieves that prey on fisherman.

Doesnt look ripped out but i would say it looks to new!!!! Fu%&ing low lifs

No reply so far for NRHPD.

I'm about as sharp as the butter knife i tried to cut my steak with last night. but spelling is not my best attribute but i get by. And to bend a mount or break one and fix it to just get by is not unheard of these days with the price of everything. I have kicked a depth finder off the bow of my boat when i missed a big fish. the six pack added some fuel to this deal. but i did fix it to just get by. Old boat and didn't really care. but also have friends that buy things at yard sales and garage sales and then sell them on ebay. I guess my point is how does one know if things are stolen or if they are bought other places to resale or so forth. just food for thought.

WE don't know for certain if the items were stolen. We do have our suspicions however and based on the way the items were listed and the response the seller gave when someone phoned him, I would say those suspicions are not without merit.

I am impressed that they took my email serious and tried to pursue it.

Here is a reply from North Richland Hills Police Department:

Mr. Holcomb,



The North Richland Hills Police Department would like to provide assistance in this matter. We realize there is a possibility the equipment could be stolen. We encountered a problem immediately after beginning our investigation. Upon receiving your email about the suspicious fishing equipment I assigned a detective to look into this matter. We have not been able to get a response from the phone number listed on the advertisement. This may be due to the all the �chatting� about this issue by the many people emailing each other about the equipment on a public forum. The suspect may have gotten scared and shut down operations, at least temporarily.



The detective assigned to this matter is very familiar with the Texas Fishing Forum as well as many other people in Texas. Since the suspect is no longer returning calls we have to assume the suspect may have been alerted to all the talk about fishing equipment on the website. The suspect may even monitor Texas Fishing forum himself/herself.



I realize that a police department cannot please all citizens in all matters, but in spite of the negative comments about our department on the Texas Fishing Forum website, we are committed to providing a quality service and will continue to monitor this situation.



We do appreciate you bringing this matter to our attention.



Please contact us if there are any new developments.
