ouch that sux.a hardy and a marryatt,ouch.

probably stolen by some addict that doesn't realise how much their worth.they may be sold at some bar for $5 a piece.

Jeff,
I hope you somehow get your stuff back. My stuff isn't nearly as nice, but I would be devastated it someone stole some of it.
Good luck.

Contact your insurance agent some homeowners policies cover theft of property from cars. It's worth a call. It may not cover all of your loss but may help toward replacement. Good Luck

I am not following your story...Where was your car when it was stolen? Was it in your driveway over night or did it happen at the area where you had planned to meet your buddy?

We have had a rash of smash and grabs in our neighborhoods...actually not "smash" but people leave their cars unlocked in the driveway. There have been laptops stolen, GPS systems, purses, etc. Seems to be kids who open the door, take what they can carry easily and move on.

if they didn't take the rods and waders, they weren't fisherman and probably have zero interested in anything. My guess they ditch them in the woods somewhere along the road - probably keeping stupids things like the sunglasses
if it was me - I'd be scouring the area. Also get a police report for insurance purposes.

Sorry for your loss.

Watch ebay like a hawk. Check out local pawn shops in the area. Any teen age kids in the area?

It's just a shame that we live in a world that people will not leave their hands off things that are not theirs. I hope you get it back or at least you here someone bragging about their action, Good luck.

Good to hear!!!! At least there wasn't too much loss other than sentimental.
