man thats sad,how bad was it?
Dent one back corner and knocked the taillight out. Had to have hit it hard, it was slid over into the next parking spot.
Had the same thing happen to me once at Sardis
That's from people who don't know how to enter a trailer parking slot. They short the turn and their trailer bangs into the one that is parked next to them.

It has an alarm and will draw some attention, plus hit and run on a vehicle is a felony, hitting a trailer may me at best a misdemeanor destruction of property. Hope you find them, sorry, sorry sapsuckers....
You can bet it was a fellow fisherman, I have picked up trailers and moved em so I could back out several times and them moved em back, never seen a need to run over one tho. It's crazy around the lake right now, very little respect for anyone else being shown and I just can;t afford enuff ammo for my flare gun to go down there!!!!!!:bash
Sorry to hear what happened. Most guys out fishing are pretty much honest people. I know their is always the 2% of the population who should be institutionalized, but for the most part, folks are honest. Always a good possibility the guy never knew it happened. Think about an old codger in his partners vehicle, which he is not accustomed to driving. It can happen. Again, sorry to hear about your bad luck, but don't let it get you down. Hope you can get it fixed without much trouble.
Sent from my iPad using the best two times to fish are "When it's raining and when it ain't.
Bad deal! Hope it works out for you.
who ever hit it tore something up on their trailer cause they moved barry's trailer 3-4 feet and his is heavy double axle trailer. so they dang sure knew he hit it.
I'm sorry that happened to your rig.
The things that get me is very few parking lots at boat ramps were designed by fishermen. Most were designed by the folks at WalMart or most hospital parking lots where you have to park then crawl out a side window if you drive a full-sized truck or car. They try to maximize the number of parking spaces at the sacrifice of not being able to swing wide to allow the rig to go into the parking lane without having to make a dozen tries at it.
Still no excuse for hitting somebody's rig then hauling arse.
Grenada Landing has plenty of room if everyone parks as they should, probably the best set up I have used. Somebody made a mistake, it happens but they could just own it.
The problem with this deal is there is plenty of room to maneuver. No excuse to hit it and darn sure no excuse for a fellow fisherman to not leave a note. Hopefully they tore up more on their rig than Barry's.
Sad, sad, I am sorry for you. There is no excuse for leaving the accident, sounds more like a kid.
There is no telling who actually did it. I would almost think that "pride" would be a factor in a lot of people, and not leave a note.
Something tells me that they could find the hit and run rig this week with the nationals going on. Just have to put a little time into it.

To many boats at Grenada this week. Every parking lot. Could not even get into Lakeway the other day because folks were parking their rigs longwise while buying ice/minners/snacks..... Bout ready for the Grenada reputation to take a few hits. Never seen it as bad as it has been the last few years.
I am like John (Rees) on this issue. Enid is a better, safer bet for a local fisherman looking to have a nice peaceful day fishing.........
I had someone hit my truck while parked over at Butla and then just last time I went to Butla, Someone stole my jack I had inside the back of my blazer,,,,,I hate when people steal from me,,,We sure do pay a lot for licenses and parking permits these days for a lack of security... be nice if they'd set up parking lot cameras at least in case of car jacking or someone's truck getting stolen,,,,Just can't trust anyone, anywhere these days,,,
Sorry about your trailer. FYI if you want the reputation of Grenada to go away folks need to quit posting pics everytime they catch a fish on a forum or Facebook if you show them they will come and if you decide to show them then expect them to be there. I can tell you this 98% of the people that fish for crappie won't be at the lake unless you give them a report cause they have no clue on how to find them.
That sucks. Someone caved in the rear quarter on my f250 couple weeks back. Surprises like that can ruin your day, if you let it.
