Title: Help Me ID This Criminal
Post by: UrbanTrapper on April 16, 2020, 04:50:45 PM: I have good video of this kayaker tresspassing at a private marina, illegally knocking over my traps, and throwing one into Lake Washington. If you want to see the videos they are uploaded to the Washington State Trappers Association Facebook page (they are both too big to upload here). I gave copies of the video to my local WDFW Enforcement Officer and he wants to help. He says he has all the evidence he needs to issue this guy a citation but he needs his name. If you know who this is, please let me know.

This could be a good idea... Although you would have to post it to the general r/Seattle subreddit, as the local outdoorsy subreddits are pretty much dead. In which case, make no mention of trapping whatsoever! Because... You know... Seattle! If you framed it as looking for help to identify a criminal trespasser and thief you'd probably get just as much help there as anywhere.

I used the Bushnell Trophy Cam HD for this.
