keep an eye on ebay and craigslist. one of my students had her camera bag stolen from her family's car in san fran and the idiot perp posted it a week later on craigslist! not sure what came of it after authorities were called though.

was this gear stolen off a boat?

People really suck! We buy and deal in used tackle, but I ask for Drivers License, and several questions along with other ID. We have already found 2 different guys who have tried to sell stolen tackle and had it returned to the rightful owners. I can tell when they get uneasy, or I say I am running it against the Pawn List of stolen goods. The both said they were going to their car to get something and took off. While we didnt actually catch them.... the gear was returned.

Check the local flea markets too. I heard somebody was just snagged 2 weeks ago on RT 70. So keep that in mind. I will keep an eye out Rich....... will let you know if we see it.

Unless it was another fisherman thats going to use the equiptment which is highly unlikely. ..its most likely a drug addict who make up for a very very high percentage of thefts. Local pawn shops are the place to go.

Cliffwood beach, along the bay is a popular place to sell stolen gear. They walk and ask whoever is fishing if they want a "good deal" on fishing gear. I usually call the game warden when they are walking around with gear in hand. Young druggies lookling for a quick fix $$$$.
