Why cant either law enforcement or the stores/marinas get a grip on this problem? I have a hard time believing this couldn't be put to a grinding halt if there was some sort of cooperation from the authorities up there.

The more I hear this the more I'm starting to believe its not a meth head doing all the stealing. Probably a guy that's lived in the neighborhood a long time and knows his way around.

I agree, methheads would get caught a little quicker because their methheads. I am not going to guess at who some of these people are but one of these days one of these folks will get caught s and people may be suprised.

Camera is mounted at the restaurant facing the boat ramp; poor view. No cameras at the boat ramp. Whats weird is the same guy that lives at the boat ramp area was standing at the ramp Friday and Saturday when I came off the lake. I had a few words with him and stated my truck door handle was pulled out and that someone had tried to break in. He looks at the door handle and says its just broken. It was very obvious that that the key hole was damaged and the door handle broken inside the door. He also says he is from Houston and would see it all the time there. I have a feeling it is some one local.

Get a sticker on the window that says "smile, you're on camera". Even if you don't have one in the vehicle.

I'm a real cop and will be up there next weekend guys. I have an rv right behind minnow bucket and not fishing the tourney. I'll do my absolute best to keep an eye on things for you.

Nothing pisses me off more than a #{^*]}%^} thief!

I'll be ready pistol in hand!

Sounds like the BIG & MIGHTY McDonalds folks need to step up and hire guards for ramps.....I'm sure they could afford to support those that have supported them so well for soooo long.
