    Default Found: Rod and reel combo

    G and I found it today when we fished S of PP in OC.

    It wasn't a high-end setup, but I'm sure whoever lost it is bummed out. For obvious reasons I can't give more details. We posted a note on my van with my phone # as we went fishin.

    However, no one called me yet, and I would really like to see this returned to it's rightful owner.

    If you can contact me via PM or e-mail and tell me the street you lost it on and the make of the rod and reel, I'll be happy to return it.

    If people read other message boards and want to post it up there as well, feel free. If I can't find the owner within 7-10 days, I'm gonna give it to someone I know who doesn't have much gear, or money to buy gear.

    So please get in touch with me before I do that. Thanks, people.

    Hey people I still have this rod and reel combo and would like to see it get back to its original owner. If anyone hears of someone who lost a combo south of Point Pleasant on 11/29 please let them or me know.

    Another 7 days and I'll be giving away to someone else, so I would really like to make sure no one is actively looking for it before I do. Thanks, all.

    I thought you had to hold it for 30 days before it becomes yours. At the end of the 30 I'll email you telling you it belongs to my long lost uncle Joe.

    Default Found: cell phone and fishermen's knife

    I found a cell phone and fishermen's knife after fishing this morning, Monmouth county, Raritan Bay.

    Phone: T-mobile
    Knife: fisherman's knife, name brand

    For obvious reasons I can't give more details. The phone looks like the battery died and may have some damage.

    However, I believe the phone contacts may still be able to be transferred or downloaded. I really want to get this back to it's owner. My phone took a dump last week and it was a bummer to lose my contacts. I can imagine how this guy must feel.

    Feel free to let anyone at any site out there know about this. If anyone can pm or e-mail me here at the site with details of the phone and knife, I'll do my best to get it back to ya ASAP.

    Capt loses tuna gear and dog when car is stolen.
    Man if they took my car with my dog, God help them if they found them, I would break thier legs with a baseball bat! Ristori reported this on Tues. Hope you get the dog back, Capt. "Capt. Lou Grazioso of Striper Mania suffered more than a material loss when his car was stolen in Hazlet a couple of days ago, as his four-year-old yellow lab, Dusty, was in the car. Grazioso's tuna tackle, including Shimano rods and reels, was also in the car. Anyone hearing of Shimano tuna tackle being offered for sale by individuals should get in touch with the police and call Grazioso at 732 687-7673 as that clue could lead to recovery of the one thing he's most concerned about -- his dog."

    Cart was claimed over the weekend. A fellow kayker who was with me when I found the cart was at Allenhurst over the weekend and saw a guy dragging his yak down the cement ramp. He made a suggestion to him about getting a cart. The guy replies that he had left it on the boardwalk at Allenhurst a few months ago. My fellow yaker told him I had found one and it was at the police station. The guy who lost his cart described it perfectly. He was one very happy and thankful kayaker!
    What are the odds of one person who was with me, running into the guy who lost it a few months later...??

    We found the owner yesterday, happy ending to the story.

    Still waiting for someone to claim that Platte River cap, though.
