I went to the lake yesterday to take my boat out for a little fishing and discovered that my (full) 12 gallon aluminum fuel tank had been stolen. The fuel line had been cut and the fuel gauge had been ripped out. My portable weather radio was busted-up and a pair of binoculars were missing. Several other boat at the marina were also missing their gas cans.
From talking to some of the other boat owners out there, it sounds like it happened Friday night. Some of them are now staying the night at the marina, armed and dangerous, waiting for the scumbags to make a return visit. I hope no stray bullets find their way into my pontoons.
I went to Conroe and after spending about $100, my boat is no longer dead in the water. I took it out and caught a small hybrid bass. As I was removing him from the hook, he flipped off and finned me on the tip of my nose. Not a good day. At least I didn't get skunked.
