Wade, I'm with you. I'm a pretty big guy and can be scary at times!

RAWR!

For real though, I think the local news idea isn't a bad idea.

I'm curious to know if he knows he being sought after.

So, the mirage drive must have been removed prior to landing right? I leave mine in and drag the kayak up the beach with it attached. Its pretty hard to get it off that way till the rods have been removed (or stolen) off of it.

Tom- thats what he does too...

Sorry to hear of that Jeremiah...

Bet scrawny boy didn't know he was on film, he'll be found soon enough.

I'll keep an eye out up here for that truck/yak combo, even hold him for you until you arrive...:evil:

Grrrr

Wow, 45 posts in seven hours. I guess the slow fishing has not sapped all the energy from our community.

From what I have read, enough evidence has been gathered to find these thieves. I am sure that the cops are busy and this will be way down the priority list. On the other hand, if we want to, some of us can do the legwork for them and hand them the perps with everything they need to bust this guy, (and his lady). We have photos, a license plate and a motivated group of volunteers. Some of us need to do the legwork and then hand the bad guys over to the authorities.

I live a ways away but if a posse is being formed, just send up the Bat-Signal. I will be there.

Have a chain and lock on the ready... When you see the truck lock the wheel and call the cops! He wont be able to drive off at least! And you won't have to deal with the guy. Also make sure the info is on craigslist. Anyone looking to buy a yak will find that info first and call you if they come across this idiot! Maybe he fishes lakes so send some pay to play lakes and give them the info.

Damn. I was there Sunday. I recall the "thief" launched early around 6 when I did, unloaded from a truck onto the beach.

When I landed he was sitting on the triangle next to the grey hobie. Seemed odd at the time, since he was there when I landed and even after I was wheeling my Hobie to my SUV. I was wondering why he had not moved off the beach. He talked a while to a yakker (bearded, young, nice guy) who had landed right next to me, also in a hobie. I could identify the "thief" if it helps--but the tats and shaved head pretty much close the deal.

Wheelez is the way to go. Just wish Hobie had put a 10 inch hatch in the rear to store the Wheelez.

If you have a witness that saw the girl lift the drive from kayak, and get into the brown Ford truck Ca. lic#8W0805 - the police will absolutely take the complaint.

Go to SDPD Northern Division and sign a criminal complaint.
4275 Eastgate Mall 92037

Its a simple procedure and an easy go from there....
-------------------------------------------

The time lapse videos are using images captured once every 30 seconds. With this recent incident, I'm changing it to every 10 seconds. I never expected that these would be used to catch someone stealing something.

I work 2 blocks from the launch and live just up the street. if i see this cocksuckers truck i will call the cops ASAP. If he has the balls to come back to my neiborhood he will be caught (or delt with).

Will keep an eye out at Dana Point. Also available if needed for the posse...

There is a guy that lives by me with a truck just like that duchbags, so I had to go look, no match.

That's some real jacked up stuff! Do you think he fishes out here or is just stealing peoples stuff? I would check Craigslist for postings.....he's prob the kind of dumbass that would post his yak with the peddles sitting on the truck. Then we could all go pay him a visit to "check" out the yak. Stomping time!

Jer, this sucks, cause it could'nt have happened to a better fisherman. When it comes time to visit him let me know. AZ Kelly.

Will keep an eye out around MDR, PV, and Cabrillo. Add another one if needed for the posse...

Perp:
White Male mid-late 20's
shaved head
large tattoos on chest

Glad I dont have ANY tattoos on my chest, cuz I would fit the description rather well....

There are many things the Police are good for when you need them. But this is a matter best resolved by the local governing body of friends. I think we all know what kind of justice is deserved here. I sure hope one of us finds him before he sells that stuff for a bag of meth and a forty. I am sad for this isolated event, but I am happy to see us all band together for our buddy. :cheers1:

I'll keep an eye out in North OC, Garden Grove, Westminster, thru Long Beach. A truck like that will be very easy to spot.

I'm in Carlsbad and I'm home the rest of the week. I'll keep an eye out for this dirtbag.
