Found portable along road!!! Owner Found!!!!

[rmk600]

My brother found a portable along the road in the last week and would like to get it back to the owner. He looked all over for a name or a number on the portable but nothing. If someone can give a detail description of the portable he can make arrangements to get back to the owner.

How about giving us a rough found area with a few surrounding lakes? I'll keep my ears on...

[rmk600]

It was found about 15 miles north of Wadena on Hwy. 71. No lakes within 15 miles of location.

You may want to also post this in the Ottertail forum as its in the general area as well. Good luck finding the owner!

That's very honest of you. Way to look out for other fisherman. One might think that it came from someone with a snowmobile as I've seen stuff come off of our trailer more than once. Good luck with hunting for the owner!

I don't know anything about it, but I wanted to give you kudos for posting this and being honest. Read to many threads lately about thefts and this is great to see someone find something and want to get it back to the owner. I hope it all works out.

[rmk600]

We know that it is a long shot. Just doesn't seem right not to try.

Also seems likely that it could be someone from the cities, or Cloud area, that was headed back from "up Nort". Maybe try craig's list .org?

I would also suggest posting it in the Detroit Lakes/Pelican Rapids area Forum. Lots of guys from the Fargo/Moorhead area and all the way in between on that one.

Park Rapids forum also. Only a skip and jump from wadena. I'll ask around too, I know a couple people in Wadena.

Owner was found through local sheriff dept. Owner described it perfectly. Just waiting for him to pick up.

Great news RMK. We read stories on here all the time about the dishonest and thieves, and here you actually found something and took time out to try and get it back to its rightful owner. Good job

WTG rmk!!! Good to hear the owner's going to get it back. Sadly to say, you don't see that happening much in this day and age. Bet he'll be happy, maybe he'll clue you in on his favorite fishing hole now.

RMK you are a fine person! You should sleep well tonight.

same thing happened to a friend of mine last year. fell out of the back of the truck. he didn't notice it fell. got home portable wasn't in the back. he retraced his route but found nothing so he went back home angry at himself. about an hour later his phone rang and it was a nice gentleman that saw it fall out and picked it up. he tried to catch him but couldn't find him so he took it home and was going to report it to the police when he saw a name and phone number on on his radio(from when he was a little kid). so he thought he would give it a call and see if they were missing a portable. ended up getting everything back (vexilar, auger, aqua-vu, and the best radio he ever had). so good for you for doing the right thing and you found him even better

Nice job rmk600! I bet the owner is very happy.

[SSCHOPSHOP]

Very nice RMK. Give your self an AT-A-BOY!

[Sandmannd]

Great job RMK, be honored that you did the right thing in a world that doesn't always do that. Kudo's to you.

[lovebigbluegills]

Good job RMK, you could've made quite a few bucks just selling it, but took the high road and spent the time to find the owner. That's quite commendable, and hopefully the owner offered you a finder's fee/reward-you deserve it.

Nice!!!

[wolfman-k]

Very good karma! What comes around goes around. May you and your brother be blessed for doing the right thing.

[Rick G]

Good job.

[knoppers]

great job RMK. it would have been a lot easyier if the owner obeyed the law and had his dnr number or some identification on the ice house which is required.

[RonWBasser]

Great job. Always good to be paying forward in the karma bank.
