Reward for information about this fella. Donkey Cr. area on the Oly Pen.
-
maybe not a lot of help, but it looks like he has a higher end rifle... maybe a Christensen carbon wrapped barrel and thumbhole stock? maybe ask around if anyone has a rifle like that. not all that common
-
Thanks. Unique rifle and individual. Hope to run into him someday.
-
All I see is a guy looking around in the woods. Why a reward?

:yeah: Fork, did you set TWO trail camera on two diff trees appox 20-30 feet apart what I see pics that you posted and one was took by him since he didnt know there is another trail camera? :dunno:
Explain more how it got stolen since you have picture on ur hand. :dunno:
-
Three cams total, the two that were nabbed were two hundred yards apart a little further down the drainage. Orange flagging tape was left on trees that stolen cams were on. I figure the person came back with a power saw. The cams have been out since March and this is the first human photo. I would just like to have a chat with this guy.
-
Hope someone give it back to u!
-
Well, here is my crazy idea.
He is either a convicted poacher who is hunting without a license or a convicted felon who is possessing a firearm.
Which would help explain why he went to so much trouble to get the cameras.
Maybe you should run his picture by F&W and the local sheriff.
-
I will tell you right now who is in your pictures. It is ME! I saw that camera on the grade and did NOT disturb it! Dont accuse me of stealing your cameras because I also setup cameras and know what its like to have them stolen. I didnt see other cameras in there. If you think I am the only person that goes in there, you are heavily mistaken. You might want to be careful about posting pictures of people online calling them theives before you know the facts.
-
So you must have been bear hunting then.
-
Looks like beardown gets the reward!
Wonder how much it is? :IBCOOL:
-
Tagging along........................ :yike:

a free camera! :chuckle:

What you need to be hunting to carry a rifle in the woods?

Hey, beardown.......was Bullblaster correct about your rifle being a Christensen or carbon wrapped barrel?
-

:chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: :chuckle: Thanks I just blew coffee out of my nose! :chuckle:

Its just got K.G. Guncoat on it
-
Sorry to hear about your cameras forks. I know beardown personally. He's a great guy and a phenomenal hunter. I know what he's not and that's a thief.
-
I want to see the reward paid to beardown..

I don't see where he called anyone a thief, just wanted to ask you a few questions..... Maybe, who is your daddy and what does he do? :dunno:

Hoofsandwings, What??????????

One thing that is worse then a thief, someone who falsely accuses someone of being a thief.
Another reason to not like game cams.

I don't see where forks has accused anyone of anything. He just said he'd like to chat with this guy... and I don't blame him. Maybe he's seen other guys in the area? Simmer...
-
This guy got his camera stolen and was mad as we all would have been, the only picture he has of a human is obviously the guy he is going to expect to steal the camera. He said he wants to know who it was so he could talk to them. Give him a break..
-
"Reward for information"
"Hope to run into him someday"
"I figure the person came back with a power saw"
"I would just like to have a chat with this guy"
Maybe I am taking it wrong?
-
Im sorry for being upset, but when your picture is posted on something like this, people assume that the person in the picture is the theif. ANYONE in my shoes would be upset.

Understandable, I would be mad if someone posted a picture of me on here but the guy didn't know you were actually on here :chuckle: he's just trying to get answers seeing as he just lost more or less $400
-
No, I think you have a right to be upset. I would hate to have my pic plastered on the internet with innuendo's. It is a shame but that's how things are now days..... No privacy, even in the woods.
-
:cmp1:
-
You have all the rights in the world of being upset, and I will remove the photos if you want. I wont remove the topic at this point. This is one of the reasons I am leaning towards hating trail cameras. I don't really feel like being photographed when I am on the mountain enjoying myself, and YES there is enough innuendo here to make it like you are the thief.......
and yes, you should get the reward.
-
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
-
Only place for trail cams is on private property. Ban them and be done with it. Flame on!
-
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.
:yeah:
Whether he was accused or not, he was offered a reward.
-
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.
-
Now Sky, it doesn't say reward for my cameras....
Reward for information about this fella.
-
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!
-
I had noted it was rather vague. :chuckle:
-
Your photos have been removed Forks.
-
I am against deleting this thread. Hope Forks gets his cameras back.

Forks replied as well as anyone should want. I also think this topic should stay online in hopes of Forks getting more info about his stolen cameras. Also it is a good reminder to be careful about accusing anyone and just to look for more info if you think someone is involved.
Boneaddict, I can see both sides of the trailcam issue, I sort of agree with both sides of the issue, not sure what the answer is? :dunno:
-
I love them...We are on camera everywhere else we go nowadays....
-
Spoke with Forks and all is good. I also have had trailcams stolen, so I know how it feels. I put up cams for scouting purposes and also just to get cool pictures of critters. And to all you guys that want them banned, why dont you hand over your firearms and any of your other rights as well. Might as well ban everything.
-
Mods:
Thanks for keeping the thread up...interesting discussion
Maybe the discussion should be...do you allow posting game cam pics of people (as humorous as some are)
-
yes....we have a whole thread going on it.
-
I want to see the reward paid to beardown..
:yeah:
