I was with Wade this morning and I have your stuff. PM me and we can make arrangements for you to get them back.

The guy that found it was named Dante. Solid guy. He has a pickup and couldn't lock your gear up, so he asked if we would take it. Everything is safe and sound, and rinsed off with clean H2O.

Way to take care of fellow anglers gents!!!!! Great community!

Or Dante ? Surf was a little sketchy today . He taught me how to come in backwards on the PA .

. What a righteous person for returning your gear . Imagine seeing a floating tank at grey light , with a bunch of rods secured to it . Like a wet dream .

gunghosd · 05-30-2014, 06:12 PM

That was my buddy Dante who found it! Good karma brother, nice work recovering the gear!!!!

alanw · 05-30-2014, 07:00 PM

Damn dude that's rough. I'd probably be pissed all day and just end up leaving. Glad a stand up guy found your stuff and it's on it's way back. You owe that dude a steak dinner or some beers

Aaron&Julie · 05-30-2014, 08:16 PM

That's great news all around. Only thing better, to alleviate your DoH!ness, might have been sticking a nice fish with Andy's rod.

LDO10 · 05-30-2014, 08:19 PM

Glad your gear was saved by some very good people...

JeffB · 05-30-2014, 08:24 PM

Sux, but nice to know you're getting it all back. Glad we have a community like we do.

Cadillyak · 05-30-2014, 08:27 PM

Karma paid forward. Stand up guy for sure. Glad u are getting your gear back.

Happy to help out. Unfortunately the battery fell out of the bait tank and is gone.

landwhale · 05-31-2014, 01:40 PM

Dante I thank you so much you saved not only some expensive gear but some killer memories

And in the other hand, I saw a rod and reel at 3rd and Orange in Coronado this morning. In traffic, smashed flat.

Was a bummer to see.

tptrench · 06-01-2014, 09:20 AM

That is so cool. It put a smile on my face!

oneyedeer · 06-06-2014, 02:46 PM

Is it Dante or Donte? If its Donte google it and look up the meaning of it in Wikipedia
