Default RJ Boyle Robbery... True?

Was fishing with TunaDevil this morning, and we heard chatter on the VHF that RJ Boyle's store was robbed last night. Is it true?

If that is true, that really sucks! Bobby is such a great guy just trying to make his way. Spent a lot of money in his shop this winter and he bent over backwards to put everything together and deliver to the boat down in Miami. Couldn't ask for better service from a nicer guy. Hope they are caught and strung up.


By the way, hello everyone. Been reading for a while, but, first post.

Yes it is true unfortunately. They got in from the vacant place beside him thru the wall. Took big ticket items. Bastards. It sucks having stuff stolen. I had two Tiagras stolen from my boat in the Keys right before easter. Took those and left everything else. My name was on all the rods and all that. RJ was in the Bahamas as well. I am sure he is on his way back.

I am bewildered how someone can steal, especially from a family man trying to make a living in a difficult industry. I'm in there at least once a week and have no idea how someone can go in there, case the place, meet Bobby and everyone else and say to themselves "Yeah, I can steal from these people." It's just wrong and I hope the thief or thieves get caught and the police drop them off at the next swordfish club meeting.

Awful. I went in there a few weeks ago and bought a few things. He seems like one heck of a nice guy. When he gets back up and running he has my future business.

Went in their yesterday afternoon for the first time and thought what a great place, grat tackle selection, and everybody working their was very helpfull. This is just a shame that something like this would happen to such a great place. Thieves are scumbags and should be strung up and

Chaos,

I'd be interested in the squid. What should half of it run me and how many do you figure that would be?
