FishAbout Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Why would you leave a portable hut out over night where lots of people fish. I don't know why people can't leave things alone but you cannot trust people anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Caster Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Why would anyone leave a portable shack unattended overnight? I'd be embarassed to report that one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davey buoy Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 To me,that doesn't sound like a hut you would leave overnight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAW Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Don't you need numbers and registration on any hut left over night? Never seen numbers on a flip up clam before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Live2fish85 Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Some people are retarded. Last year my cousin and I were I fishing at bayfront in Hamilton which I guess that should be a indication to not leave thing alone but we did and walked around the bay came back and our hut tackle eveything was gone. Just had our flasher and a rod each. Got to love these punks that would rather steal then work for something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rod Caster Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 These days kids are bad? Teenagers and thieves are not a new phenomenon. Adults do some pretty dumb stuff too... Ask a police officer. I'm not defending the people who stole said portable, but c'mon, leaving a portable shack overnight in a high traffic area is just asking for trouble. Years ago I left my tackle unattended at a quiet shore spot and it was gone the next day. My parents said : then stop leaving your stuff behind.

camillj Posted February 13, 2012 Report Share Posted February 13, 2012 Don't you need numbers and registration on any hut left over night? Never seen numbers on a flip up clam before. I leave mine for the couple of weeks I fish in Muskoka every year ... I actually registered it years ago and sewed my numbers into the side ... perfectly legal ... I try to secure it into the ice to prevent any chance of the 'screws' coming loose and blowing away ... been doing it for about 10 years .. and yes ONCE ... it did disappear .. but honestly couldnt tell you if it really just blew away. I figure if you have to work that hard to protect your property (worth about 200 bucks) maybe it isnt worth protecting anyways ... anyhow ... sorry to hear about your loss .. but dont lose faith in your fishin brethren .. sure there are a few bad apples but most of them are actually stand up guys.

Dabluz Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I see in the foreseeable future, groups of grumpy old men wandering the streets causing damage to cars with mags and very low profile tires, cars with heavily shaded windows, breaking the windows to hip hop clubs, beating up people who wear their baseball caps backwards or those with pants so low that the crotch is between their knees, stealing cell phones from youngsters while they are texting, intimidating young people who drink energy drinks, punching anyone who says "yo", etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beans and I go on patrol whenever we get the chance, sometimes it just "DEPENDS"! LOL (Oh, and you wouldn't want to tick us off, we are too short tempered to put up a fair fight)!

As for the OP I think someone should do it know to these morons with no respect. Mind you it isn't just people in that stereo type that need it or not all of them deserve it but it is true for the most part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
