    stolen canoe

    Calling on the mighty powers of the Green Screen to help find my stolen canoe. On the one hand it's "just a canoe" but this boat means a whole lot to me. I bought it new about 25 years ago and she has taken me on many, many incredible adventures down most of the navigable rivers in Texas, Southeastern Oklahoma and Western Arkansas. I've caught literally thousands of fish out of this fine boat and had some pretty crazy awesome adventures with her. As such, I'll offer a $300 reward for the safe recovery of my long lost canoe. If I can find and successfully prosecute the sorry SOB that stole it, that's worth another $100. Seriously, who steals another man's canoe???

    Details:
    I kept it at my bud's place east of Lone Oak, Tx (about 30 miles south of Greenville and about 60 miles E-NE of Dallas). His property has a small lake and I kept it there behind a locked gate and back in the woods. The boat was stolen sometime between March 26 & April 6. It is a green Old Town 169 Discovery canoe with many stickers including a Texasbowhunter sticker or three. At the time it came up missing there was (is) a new home being constructed across the lake. Very coincidental considering I've kept it there for the past 20 years off and on with no issues until now.

    If anyone knows of anything I'd appreciate a holler. My guess is that it's now in Greenville or possibly Emory, most likely in someone's back yard. Could even be in the Tawakoni area or even Quinlan.

    This old boat means a lot to me. I've enjoyed too many great memories just to say oh well and forget about it. If you know anything, please call or text or PM me. Paul 214.460.3464. Thank you Green Screen people.

              My Weimar was stolen in broad daylight while my neighbors looked on...

                Did you report it to the Sheriff's Office? You may want to if you haven't yet. I work the Greenville area and will keep a look out for it around the city lakes and pawn shops. If it was stolen on the hunt co. side of LO call Kenneth Peters with the SO, he has a nack at finding stolen stuff.

                  Find out who the GC was on the new home and visit with him. See who his subs were and go from there...with LEO.

                    I bet it will be for sale at the HWY 80 yard sale this weekend. I will keep an eye out for it. I will go from Hawkins to around 80 and 19.

                        Yep. The TBH sticker takes it to another level!

                            Thank you so much. My son said he would watch for it also.

                            I know it's just a canoe but like I said earlier, it has taken me to incredible places. I can't just let it go without some kind of fight to find it. And it has TWO TBH stickers. And it's green.
