Stolen Gear! S. Pas / Highland Park LA
Update: Car found in LAPD Hollenbeck's territory, after twelve days. Signs of being rode far, and hard, real hard, but already belongs to Insurance Co.
Paddle and pole spear the only things not stolen. Go figure. So my car was stolen in the Highland Park / South Pasadena area last night with a s-load of kayak, fishing, diving gear. Ready for a week off of tooling around down the coast. Yeah it was all beneath the rear cover, I packed it at work in a private lot, and the vehicle has no hobby stickers betraying valuable contents, so it's just a random act of sociopathic thievery. Eff thieves. Stolen (besides my old pos cr-v with 248k miles, lol, and miscellaneous crap that collects in a car owned for 18 years): Kayak Gear Seat with a broken zipper. Nearly destroyed gray and blue PFD with signal whistle and mirror Adventure Technology Ergo Paddle. $$$. Carbon handle, white fiberglass paddle Red 10L dry bag, holding clothing items. Columbia PFG Sun Hoodie, white with american flag graphics White, Tan sun hoods and tore-up sun gloves Green XL speedo, lol Lifeguard style woven straw hat Thule rack with kayak saddles Red Offroad Crocs, which usually were left in plain view to throw off thieves, i.e. "Can't possibly be anything of value here." Medium size otterbox, brown and clear w/fishing licenses, grrrrr 2ft fiberglass gaff Basspro bogo knockoff Giant dive stringer, homemade from a spear shaft Scottie conventional rod holder Opportunistic Tackle Box (red plastic Folgers container, black lid, yellow lash cord with small tuna clips, fits perfect in a 6" hatch) 1 each white and chrome/blue surface iron and yoyo jigs Couple each lucky craft 125, bomber long shot 5" crankbaits, in fluorescent chartreuse and custom painted dark bronze Some jig heads and powerbait swimbaits, in white and dark brown red flake Miscellaneous live bait hooks, mostly Owner, little spools of 40 and 20 fluoro Some 1/2oz - 1oz tungsten pitching weights and powerbait worms, gamakatsu 5/0 hooks, miscellaneous plastics. The small stuff is packed in unusual containers, re-purposed bio lab plasticware, boxes, vials. Very distinctive. "Opportunistic Summer Dive" stuff Cheap black mask, low volume style Large Rob Allen "Cray Bag" holding most of the gear Homemade cable stringer Hyperflex Access gloves, some glue patches Sporasub? camo snorkel with fluoro tip Shortie Silicone Fins, mostly gray, Speedo Earplugs. Good ones. Argos booties Sporasub Black 1.5mm lined 2-pce waist-high and beavertail suit, XL, some seams giving Generic belt rubber with 4 TinMan weights, ~9lb Oyster knife, modified, sharpened tip, serrated sides MY MFING LINGHUNT 3-PIECE POLESPEAR WITH PARALYZER Can only hope my car's on channel 9 tonight, "tragic end for suspects in a stolen car chase" or something. I'm all about understanding and compassion, but thieves and bullies can die painfully and go through the wood chipper, so Yahveh can't make them rise whole at the resurrection. Sorry, I'm a little vulnerable now. Cross-posting to CA Forum, if there's a problem with that lemme know.
