Opening a can of worms (Team Mossback)
« on: September 07, 2011, 03:02:26 PM »
So I am just throwing this out there. This is just some thoughts that have been going thru my head since I heard they were here and I am wondering what you guys think?
Team Mossback has a repetation, I cannot say if it is true or not since I have personally never been around them. But the repetation is that they do whatever it takes to get the bull they want.  I said earlier on another thread that I was told by a private source that they were doing everything legit and things were fine, Please do not ask who my friend is because i will not tell you just know he has been involved from the beginning when he heard they were coming..
 Anyway, I heard later yesterday that is not true, apparently my friend cannot be everywhere, But team Mossback can. Word is they have been tresspassing, Hopefully the landowners will start complaining about it,
I would recommend to any of my Hunt wa friends if you are in the blues and see their activities take pictures and report them. Guys like this are gonna ruin it for all of us if they do not think the rules apply to them.  Also I know it is a free country and people can start businesses where they want but I would love to see them out of here and the business they are here for go to guys like mtcook or other local outfitters.. These are the problems I see happening if they stay here.
1. with the money that they make you can bet they will slowly start worming their way into the private landowners pocket, Thus pretty much eliminating any chance that guys like you and me will never get permission to hunt these lands if we ever felt the want or need to ask..
2. The Blues are getting enough attention as it is  we don't need tham here to make our draw odds and such worse.
And with the attention it is getting along with the wolves I am afraid what it will be like in 10 years.
To close  my can of worms what is stopping team mossback from tresspassing?  The tag holder obviously has alot enough  money so what would a tresspass fee be to him.? The land owner could not let him retrieve the animal but the land owner better have a tag otherwise he faces a fine as well.  so what is really stopping them from tresspassing?.

So lets hear it what do you guys think?

I don't believe a landowner would be in violation of any law for not allowing someone to trespass in order to retrieve a dead animal.

Yea I think it sucks.....They're gonna shoot my bull!!  :chuckle:

I agree with what you've said, I've actually been thinking about this as well.
Right now I'm worried that this may affect my chances to access some private lands down there...

I don't really have a problem with it if they follow every law that you and I have to as hunters in this State.
This includes, guide license (if applicable to what they are doing), trespassing, hunting regulations, and any other RCW that applies to their adventure.
They step on their dick, throw the book at them just like it should be thrown at each and every one of us who violate the RCW while partaking in our outdoor activities.

I think if they are doing illegal things then the proper authorities should be told, and these things documented...as you said.
Problem is... cash can get you alot, and out of alot!

Well I have made a trip or two without the misfortune of running into them. I would really like it if the word could be put out and no landowners let them in, if they cross, slam them. I don't care if they do they're thing as long as they are held to the same standard as every other swingin richard out there. I did however buy a nice new 25,000 lb tow strap for the ol truck if I happen to see any roadblocks  ;)

I have had it happen to me in Utah, they come in harass everybody in the area until only they are the only ones  there then block the roads with unmarked vehicles if you try to go around them they start to threaten you. have had on actually start to pull a gun on me because i try to go around him on a quad.  when i reported the incident to the game warden he told me they aren't allowed to mess with him, county cops said the same thing something needs to be done but most states , especially Utah won't touch him. he spends to much money, bribes to many people.

Well they certainly tout themselves as reputable service.. maybe everyone should send them an email asking if they trespass or block roads. http://mossback.com/about-us/

Their 400 gallery is impressive and likely a testament to people with large bank accounts and little hunting prowess.

I say they need to make that tag a public land hunt only.    :twocents:
