Tires slashed at boat ramp in mississippi yesterday

[marfeez]

I think it's really sad that there are such mean and jealous people out there in Mississippi. Me and my bf have crappie fished in Grenada, MS for years now, but we've always heard of people from Missouri and other out-of-staters getting their tires slashed at the boat ramps. Well, so sorry to say but it happened to us this year. We arrived in Grenada on Thursday (4/1) with my little grandson, fished on Friday until 2 p.m. Noticed that our boat trailer tire was low, and then when we were pulling our boat out of the water, some men from MS pointed out to us that our rear passenger tire on our truck was also leaking air. Had a hell of a time changing the boat trailer tire (good thing we had a spare). Took off of Water Valley boat ramp to get the tire on the truck fixed, and the boat trailer spare tire totally burned rubber, so we had to leave the boat/trailer behind. Started driving a little down the road, and the truck tire completely went flat, so my bf had to change that tire. Some NICE MS ppl offered to help us, but we refused the help. We were really looking forward to this trip with my grandson, but we came home today unfortunately. I guess we'll just stay in Missouri from now and fish. I am definitely notifying the state of MS and the COE about this. This is total BS!!!

Sorry to hear of this.

Really sorry to hear this. Most all of us have good friends, i.e. speck from MO , billbob, DonG, etc, but it seems there is always a bad apple or two ready to give the rest of us a bad name. Hate that happened to you.

I am not condoning someones ridiculous behavior for cutting your tires but please don't blame it on MS folks. I wasn't there and really wish I had been there but you aren't sure whether it was someone from Missouri or MS that cut your tires. Please call the COE and the sheriff's department. Maybe they have heard about other tires being cut. Rather than than worry about getting your tires cut again, plan a trip to Barnett Reservoir next year and let the c.c guys know your coming. We'll help you find some fish and y'all can have fun.

Are you sure you were at Grenada? The Water Vally ramp is at Enid. I must not be reading something right.

We were staying in Grenada at the Comfort Inn, but yes, we were fishing Lake Enid. All the years we've gone down to MS, we've always said how nice everyone is, so we know every state has a few bad apples. Maybe if they ever get security cameras on their boat ramps then we can come back down because we always look forward to going to MS every April. The crappie are unbelievable! And thanks for the offer crappieholic. We may have to take you up on your offer next year!

If it gets to the point we have to have security cameras at boat ramps I believe I will have to hang up my rods.

Hate that, but please dont judge us based on a cpl of idiots...there are idiots in every state, and ours is no exception. The vast majority here will help you in any way they can. I hope you will come back, and have a better experience next time. Let us know if we can help.
