After I had a great evening on Strawberry earlier in the week, I persuaded a friend from school to go out with my on Saturday afternoon. A stiff afternoon wind forced us to start away from the main points I had previously fished, and we didn't pick up any fish in the first hour or so. After moving to the Haws Point area for sunset, a slight breeze stayed up, and there was no surface activity. We ended with no fish and no strikes--my first complete failure of the year.
When I arrived home, I unloaded my float tubes, fins ,waders, etc. in my underground parking space and then moved my truck back to the street. By the time I got back to my parking spot, both tubes and all of the equipment were gone. I talked to the police department, and they said that things are routinely stolen from (open) underground parking. But who would take some muddy, wet float tubes and waders? I would like to believe it was a fisherman who really needed a way of getting out on the water. That wouldn't be so bad, then.
