If were at RayRoberts “Jordan Park” boat ramp this afternoon between 4-8 pm and witnessed someone running into my white Basscat trailer please PM any details you might have. They hit the trailer hard enough to set off my truck alarm so you might have noticed that as well. Damn shame !!! that someone would do this and not have the decency to leave a note or anything.

At Roberts, I park in Handicap or at the very top of the ramp where the grass makes a traingle between the road incoming and out going.
I try to take away the DumbArse factor of someone like a non boater who gets the trailer for the boater and isn't used to driving a trailer.
Seems like a lot of my buddies have had thier trailers hit at the ramp, and no note was left.

Sorry to hear about the hit and run. I had my trailer hit a few weeks back at the Bob Sandlin State Park ramp. There was a small club tourney going on at the time so you think someone would have noticed, but no luck  .

Same thing at Jordan weekend before last. Scatched and bent my Triton trailer. Broke the right rear stop lamp. I'm looking for a teal green trailer with a little black paint on it. I hope I find your sorry ARSE !!

I was parked on the very top of the hill in the last parking space, the field was on the drivers side of my truck and the 4-5 spaces on my passenger side were open to prevent this from happening. This is the area that people use to put their transom saver/straps on, wipe down the boat, help drunks out of the boat ect. The trailer was ran into not backed into…. unless someone was backing up the one way which wouldn’t surprise me. I’m filing a report with the Pilot Point Police this afternoon so who ever done this will charged with hit and run if they are caught. If you’re unsure about the guy, gal parking your truck do the right thing and beach the boat or let them float around with the trolling motor down. It was a joke yesterday both bassboat trailers and pleasure boat trailers were parked taking up multiple spaces, trailers 6” from each other ect. I think I learned my lesson about fishing on the weekends.

fished roberts early sunday (left jordan around noon) when we loaded up i noticed about half of the trailers were parked crooked over the lines. i figure if they cant park em straight they cant drive well enough not to hit something when they leave.

if i had to guess i bet it wont be a bass boat trailer/truck that you are looking for. I saw a guy at Jordan come back completely obliterated to get his truck and trailer. He had ripped his lower unit off on the other side of the lake. Then when his buddy dropped him off to get his truck he almost had a wreck leaving. People are unbelievable.

I had a jag do that to me earlier in the year at Jordan, backed up into my trailer hard enough to dent it and take a 1 inch gauge out of both tires. No note, nothing. Was an aqua green paint on my trailer, could be the same a-hole still doesn't know how to drive.
I think you have to take pictures of the 2 trailers next to you, as well as anyone behind you so you can give the police a starting point when they have to investigate. People in this country are ridiculous, nobody take responsibility for their actions anymore.

Be sure to ge tthe license plate numbers in the photos too. I'll start doing that. Easy precaution that could save a lot of hassle in the future.

I may have seen that guy rip his lower unit off, he was in what looked like a smaller Ranger coming out of Indian and he rounded the corner too early heading back towards Jordan, the boat came to a complete stop from on plane! I also seen a guy backing his truck out of a parking spot at Jordan and catching his fender with a trailer that had the post coming up on the rear of the trailer, did not hurt trailer but put a pretty good scar on the Ford fender, probably was his buddies truck and he told him he had no idea how that happened. if i had to guess i bet it wont be a bass boat trailer/truck that you are looking for.
