Someone stole my tackle box and cooler out of my boat at Enid while it was parked at my camp site and I was in bed. The campground host told me there has been several satellite dishes stolen as well.

Trypman's truck got keyed at the ramp at Enid last year.

What I considered doing was getting one of the motion detectors and put the sensor in the back window of my SUV and the receiver in my hotel room.They work pretty good but you might have some false alarms when someone walked by.

My brother had a very nice Camero back in the '70's with a great stereo system in it. Someone busted out his side window one night and stole the stereo. We replaced it with the same unit he had only this time, we super glued razor blades to the bottom rear of the head unit. A few months later, someone broke out his side window again but this time they didn't get the stereo. There was a bunch of blood all over the inside of his car though.:biggrin

Pay back can be hell.

This is true. As far as I have been told, it is illegal to set any trap that could cause any sort of physical harm. It's like people who carry wasp spray instead of mace. A lady just lost a huge lawsuit against her when the attacker that she sprayed sued her for intentional poisoning. Not that I agree with any of what I have said, but sadly this is the world we live in.

I also take everything out of the boat. I lost all of my tackle and electronics to a thief last year.
