Still Praying for my lost rod

Last Easter I left my rod on top of truck at Girard park. It was found and set on the railing but was not there sunday morning. Please help if any advice. sage 5wt I can identify reel and line and most likely fly's that were on my first and best fly rod.

    hope you find your rod. I had a similar experience with a nice set-up a few years ago.

    Best advice I ever received at a fly fishing seminar in the mid 80's was from Lefty Kreh.
    He told us, "Always put your fly rod on the HOOD of your vehicle after returning from fishing. You'll never leave without it."
    Have'nt lost one since.
    Smart man, Lefty Kreh.

    It is probably time to give up the quest and buy another one.

    Everything I say can be fully substantiated by my own opinion.

    Sucks you lost your rod, know all too well what that is like. Best to get on with another one to ease your troubles.

    I bought another one that week and went much cheaper but an "OK" outfit. Hasnt caught nearly as much fish yet and doesnt balance as nice, but oh well. Happy to be fishing with whatever i use. Loved that rod/outfit though. Please keep ye rears open for that guy that found it, he may be happy bragging.?.

    I hope whoever found it spreads the word, writes a note, leaves info at the bait shop...sumthin.
    If I find a fly or an indicator that's one thing, but I can't imagine any fisherman finding that setup and not making an effort to get it back to the owner.

    "Come, follow me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men."
