    Default Good day bad day that the Ville


    Good part of the day started on the south end of the lake catching catching a 2 person limit of overs and 5 unders. We fished 3 to 11 feet deep I'm standing timber and downed trees on the main lake . Using Perl glitter tube jigs . The bad part of the day was getting back to the parking lot to find someone head kick out the tail lights on my trailer. And leaving a note on my windshield explaining he did not like the way we park. Which was puzzling because there was there was only one other truck in the parking lot. We use this ramp a lot and I've never had any problems and hope this is the first and last. With that being said I wonder if any of the rest of you have experienced any vandalism at any of the ramps at Lake Shelbyville. Good luck and good fishing

    Wow! It is amazing what some people do!!! I had a guy kick tail lights out of my new truck. It was for a different reason tho! Small price to pay for a gal!!! I hope they don't do something like that when I am around!! Low!!!!

    I can't believe such acts of cowardice! I'm reminded of what a good welder, who I still work with this say told me, after losing most of his left eye in a fight, "E, I wish I had just simply walked away!" I hope this incident was reported. Hang on to the letter, it's evidence of a crime.
    Most men spend their entire life fishing, without realizing its not the fish they are after!

    Id like to know what ramp this is as well. I have never had any bad luck like that there but that's some bull hockey for sure. Hope it was reported!

    The ramp we were at was possum. My fishing partner did call the conservation police. I haven't talk to him today to find out what they said. I hope this is just and isolated event. But on a happier note I got the lights replaced and ready to go again. Heading to mississippi to fish sardis for 5 days. Looking forward to that. I'll let you know how it goes

    not many people use that ramp. I'll bet it's some goof ball that lives in that neighborhood. what in the heck was that guy thinking. I wish I would have saw that happen. If they would do it to you, they could just as easily do it to any of us next time. keep the note.
    doesn't feel like kids. drive around and see who has a boat sitting in the driveway just outside that park.
    could be wrong.
    LOL what if it's the C.O.?
