Stolen Cameras

[h20hunter]

Looks like a dude out hunting to me. I'd need to see pics from a second cam showing our perp (not pictured) laying hands on the missing cam.

This is one of the reasons I am leaning towards hating trail cameras.

 
Bone, I agree with everything else in your post

[whiteeyes]

Only place for trail cams is on private property. Ban them and be done with it.  Flame on!

[boneaddict]

I think I feel violated Jonathan.   I want to be able to go out and hike without being filmed and studied maybe.  Its like I climb a mountain to get away.   I'm self analyzing at the moment.

and yes, you should get the reward.

 

Whether he was accused or not, he was offered a reward.

[Skyvalhunter]

No reward unless he gets his cams. Does saying your innocent really mean you are? You are probably scoped and photographed anyhow. Can't say I agree with public posting.

[boneaddict]

Now Sky, it doesn't say reward for my cameras....

Reward for information about this fella.

[h20hunter]

Ok.....I'm claiming the reward:

Beardown....aka Fella aka buddy aka hey you
Male
Approx 5-10, 210 lbs
Facial hair...sparse and unattractive
Tattoos....none that he can talk about...he was in the service and Frank is a buddy....you would have to have been there.
Likes: Wine coolers, camo anything, talking about his feelings, light beer, pansies, football......soccer...not American football you sissy.
Known affiliations: NRA, PTA, Nascar 4 Ever


How'd I do?

Pretty sure that is a flashlight on his scope too. And yes that is a bobcat in the 3rd picture.

I'm not in vehement contest with you by any means.  I actually dislike a portion of the trail cam users. 

Like when people set up on every trail and road within a 2-square mile area (I'm talking to you Mr. Primos Truth in GMU 117)

I guess I balked a bit when I read that sentence in your post because it seemed anti-trail camera use at first glance and I am a huge proponent of not necessarily the use of them but the ability to use them.  I am very sensitive to issues that divide sportsmen and it worries me that we're going to start losing rights.

boo hoo..jesus

 I have spoken with Beardown and have met he and his hunting partner before. I obviously didn't recognize him. He is a quality guy and most certainly not a poacher. I was very careful in the beginning not to accuse him because I have proof of nothing other than missing cameras and a person than enjoys littering and cutting trees down in our national forests. His reward will be getting to see all of the nice bulls that I have pictures of since March. Moderators, please remove pictures of this thread as soon as possible and I will ask to have the entire thread removed as soon as members have a chance to read this reply to clear Beardown's name and reputation. Thanks for understanding.

Now Bone neither does it say what the reward might be, could be a kick to the Jimmy's!

[boneaddict]

I had noted it was rather vague.
