[cool][#0000ff]When I lived in Sacramento (CA) I lived close to the American River. I had some holes and runs I liked to fish and all of a sudden they were snaggy and impossible to fish. One of the "regulars" discovered that these favorite spots had been booby trapped with old bedsprings...so he and a couple of buddies waited one night and caught a couple of guys with diving gear going out and retrieving the springs...and getting all the lures and gear off them...and then throwing them back out.

[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]The perpetrators were forced to wait for fish and game to show up and were made to remove all the snags. Their ill-gotten gear was confiscated by the fish and game...along with their diving stuff.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Since then I have heard more than a few stories of favorite fishing spots being rigged to steal gear and then being "harvested" later by those who put it there. [/#0000ff]
