Getting ripped off is one of the worst feelings you can have in fishing and boating. I never got ripped off fishing but did get ripped off twice while boating.

Weekapaug is well known for numerous late season rip offs. Several incidents reported every year.As people work their way towards the west in the late season , there are fewer and fewer fisherman around and more and more spots with nothing but a parked vehicle and a car full of thieves stopping by.

Andrea is not so well known for rip offs but it has a lot of traffic of non fishing people so the oppurtunities are there.

I also have a ski rack for driving around but when I leave the vehicle everything gets locked inside. Late seasom I try to bring only what I think I will need. No extra stuff to leave in the vehicle if possible. yes the surf bag gets heavy but you hang onto your gear one more season.

What a shame to break the rods to get at the reels.
