The Original Old Farts Club

Local bars and pawn shops would be a good place to start looking.

Maybe even Bait shops in the area too

Rocky, your homeowners insurance will cover the loss. Same thing happened to me years ago. My motor home was broken into. I lost thousands in rods and equipment. Can't help with the sentimental value but at least it's something!

 

[Rockymtnbuds]

My insurance company says no dice. I have no proof of all the antique lures and the rest of my gear probably won’t reach the $1000 deductible. I found a used Ugly Stick with a decent reel on marketplace so it’s a start. Some hooks and weights and I’ll at least be able to sit on the bank and drown worms.
To be more precise my agent wants a detailed list of what was in the box, brand? model? Color? Approximate year? I don’t even know exactly how many lures were in there. Probably 30 or so plus the big Muskie lures in the bottom. She wasn’t optimistic of a claim being paid.

That friggin' sucks, Rocky.

Didja try the no-runnin'-around phone call idea to pawn shops?

It worked worth $36K when the computers were stolen. And you might well get some much-needed schadenfreude out of it if the MF'r gets nailed because you were on the phone for half an hour.

Please think about it.

Walt I’ve got my local tackle store on alert and I’ve been to 6 or 7 pawn shops. I was looking at old lures on eBay but I couldn’t prove any were mine if I saw them. I’m afraid I just have to suck it up.

 

[boo]

that sucks rocky, karma will get the bastages...a treble hook in the eye would be a good start...

 

[Rudedude]

Sorry for the shytstorm Rocky, I am glad to see you here though. I am off to watch golf and smoke pot. I'm not having ice cream tonight but I am going to have some strawberry shortcake. Enjoy your evening brother Boo and the rest of you elder cool cats.

Those are the bastards that need to feed some Alligators or Alligator Gar.

 

[Rockymtnbuds]

Does anyone here still run Pukeberry? I ran across some old pix then while digging through my seeds I found a package marked Pukeberry. I remember the last plant I had produced this little handful of seeds. Probably hermies but that stuff was so good I might just pop these seeds.

 

[WeedHopper]

Never have but it looks good.

Better yet

 

[Hippie420]

Rocky, make sure if you do a claim to pad the heck outta it. Look how many years you've paid premiums and now the bastards don't want to pay off?

 

[Papa Indica]

@Rockymtnbuds I've already apologized on your thread and in a pm to you but, I'd still like to chime in with Hopper and apologize again for my reactions. We're all old enough that we should know better that to react so swiftly, you never know what might be going on in someone else's world. I hope those bastards suffer for taking your stuff man. Karma

Wishing you well.

Well, I'm at about 9 1/2 hours of football today myself. One; I started every game after the Anthem, so I didn't see that crap and two; I won't allow myself to put enough stock in what athletes and/or celebrities think, or say, to affect what I do. If I did, I'd never be able to watch and enjoy another movie or tv show because they all suck.* I enjoy watching football and it's actually something that I only started getting into in the last couple years, so I'm not ready to give it up yet either...
I called it right from the first game too... I think the Ravens are going all the way this year. We've been Patriots fans all along, being from New England, but I'm a convert now. The wife doesn't like it much but, oh well. Following Brady and Gronk with TB too.

Good night

 

[Rudedude]

Good morning old farts, I hope everyone has a great Moanday.

 

[ROSTERMAN]

Good Moaning

 

[Drifting13]

G'Morning, y'all! Harvesting last plant from old cabinet & then tear it down. I'm going to rearrange grow area veg & flower. After HVAC is done I'll put up a Gorilla tent.
