Two weeks ago the exact same thing happend to me... Only I was in Williamson County, TX. It cost me $7500 to get out of jail, (couldn't get a bondsman to post bond because I was from out of state), $360 to get my truck out of impound, and 30 hours in jail. The officer pulled me over for failing to signal a lane change as he pulled out in front of me on the interstate. Let me go with a warning, and pulled me over again about one mile down the road with a K-9 unit behind him. This time I was pulled over for weaving. On business, and already late for a meeting, I also told the officer I would prefer him not to search through my SUV stacked high with equipment, suitcases, and tools. The next thing I knew I was cuffed and off to the local barn yard so Goober and Cleatis could tear my truck apart and forget how to put it back together. They didn't know why my SUV had been undercoated. I guess there is not much snow and ice in Williamson County. Their drug sniffing dog scratched up all four doors and fenders, and the two "Fishing Buddies" left their blue "reeling" gloves and tackle box ("evidence") in the back of my vehicle. I'm now out about $8000 and awaiting a court date that will never be set to be reimbersed for my bond. I'm also anxiously waiting for the $160 in cash that is "to be mailed to my residence." With my estimate for new paint on my vehicle, along with two new door panels and switches, their "Fishing Trip" has cost me about $10,000. And I never did hear the dog bark...
Thanks for another fishing story.
