Its a he said / she said as far as value that I will lose in court every time.

I was all ready the first time it happened. But I was told its a loser. Nobody broke in, they simply helped themselves to something left out after hours. Would spend more in court than its worth to watch them get a slap on the wrist, MAYBE! Unless they had a prior record or something. Best bet is ID them to the locals and chase them off the fishng spots when they are spotted. No violence, the shame of others knowing is enough to chase them away and stop it.

In the end...... they have more rights to steal from me than I have to go after them.

Just post a still frame from the camera, ASKING If anyone knows them , at this point you dont even have to imply why, just that you would like to know who they are
