    I am told one of the ways thieves unload stolen goods is to sell on EBAY. I would monitor this site too. Sorry to hear of your loss.

    Don't forget to watch Craigs List as well.

    Sorry to hear of that David. I was there on Saturday morning, saw the plywood covered door, and bought $300 worth of supplies.
    Glad to find you guys. I hate paying shipping charges and the wait for materials and tools.
    Tell the guy who lives out in Santa Clarita I said "Hi!"

    I'll be watching and keep an ear to the ground.

    As most of you probably already know, we were burglerized in the early hours of Thursday morning. They smashed the front door of the store with a hammer and then shattered the reel display cash as well. They pretty much cleaned out, or damaged, every reel in the case (101 reels gone and 18 damaged) and they got 35 rods (4 others damaged) off the rack as well. The alarm company called us and we found the store in shambles when we arrived. Police did their thing and they did find blood where one of the thieves cut themselves on the show case glass, the hammer and a plastic garbage bag that had been left behind. I put the word out on the flyfishing forums and we have a lot of eyes looking to see if this stuff starts showing up. Steve and I wanted to thank all of those who called, posted on the boards or emailed with offers of help and condolences we are truly part of a great community and we appreciate your kindness and support.

    Here is a list of Rods and reels that were stolen from the shop last Thursday. If you see any offered for sale online or are approached to buy them by someone please let us know asap at the following number (81785-7306
