    Co-Angler theft?

    Just got done watching a vid on youtube where a coangler stole about half a big pack of custom colored worms. In the video the guy admitted he took some and gave a few back but not all of them.

    You all ever seen or heard anything like that? I cant imagine how id feel if some joker I let on my boat stole from me. Kinda mindblowing to hear...figured there was honor amongst fellow fishermen?

    %’s in every group. Chances are one of your friends is not above stealing. You let 3 strangers on your boat, one of them is not trustworthy. Chance you are willing to take.

    Yup. It was prolly like 15 worms, and they were custom made with a "special color" and even at that its only a few bucks. Crazy that someone will throw away their morals and values for $5-10 worth of baits. I figured the social stigma from getting caught would be deterrent enough, but guess some dont care at all.

    Agree. Never know who will steal your stuff.

    Very low class move. I would have reported it to the tournament director. Should fall under unsportsmanlike conduct.

    If it happened to me he would need a ride home.

    No longer welcome in my boat or truck.

    I've had stuff disappear during tournaments years ago and figured I misplaced or had it fly out of the boat. Never thought a co would take it.

    What is the guys name that took them? I can't imagine doing that without asking, nor imagine anyone I fish with doing that. Even friends ask if they can use something, and they ain't taking them home.

    Should be banned from tournaments. If he will steal something small, he will cheat.
