The thought of someone running over my line also crossed my mind. We searched high and Low down wind for the bouy but didn't see it. There were a lot of boats out there. I was trying to be very careful myself around other bouys to not run over any lines but it was certainly tight quarters with all the pots and boats. I think that I had plent of weight in the pots ~10#. and I had about 350 feet of line with a weight clipped on about 20-30' down. (which also makes me wonder how it could have gotten run over.

I think the lesson here is to make your Bouys highly distinguisable and keep a watch on them.

Wouldn't it be fun to catch the guy stealing it?
