Went out with a buddy on Monday from kniefel ramp and someone hit my boat trailer in the parking lot mid day. They hit my drivers side taillight and bracket. The bracket is bolted to the frame with 1/4" x 2" x4" pc of steel and has a 1/8" x 1.5" x 4" angled coming off of that. They bent and twisted both pieces beyond repair and obliterated the brand new led taillight I installed on Friday. It put a small bow in the trailer frame where the light bracket was mounted which can be fixed with a big enough hammer and cracked the top weld on the rear cross member. It's a fairly lightweight trailer for my 14' boat but it appears to have been hit pretty hard. Not just a glance where the guy maybe didn't know he hit anything. Didn't leave a note or anything. A-hole.
To top it off my buddy was driving back to grand forks after that and went thru minot to drop off some work stuff and stopped to do some shore fishing at devils lake at sundown. He stopped and fished under a bridge for about an hour. There was about 10-12 "Asian" ish people there at the same time. He said he had topped off his gas in Rugby and had an almost full tank when he stopped. Someone siphoned off his gas while he was fishing and he barely made it to the gas station his car was literally shutting off as he pulled up to the pump.
Anybody else have stupid shit happen when you're trying to enjoy fishing?
