Post by: spur_ride on November 23, 2009, 11:02:12 AM
well, i went to check a trail camera i put out friday on my property. Mind you, i put the camera about 500 yds from my house and went down, pulled out the photo card, put it in my camera to view the pics and the magority of them were of some guys pheasant hunting on my place.  >:(  >:(  >:( Then to top it off i even saw the guys driving down the road and they smiled and waved as they drove by me in my drive way. my place is fenced and posted so all i have to say is WTF!!!

if you want i can come out there with my gun and dog and "rove" your perimeter to make sure that doesn't happen again... all joking aside that sucks... My old man in West Texas constantly pulls trail cameras that have pictures of Illegals crossing the rio grande...

Maybe you need to add "Violators will be shot and buried" to your posting on your land!   :dunno:

you could e-mail the pics to the police department stating that you would like to identify said trespassers.

LOL how do you think the blood-sucking vultures in paparazzi's make their living? You can post pics you take of people on PUBLIC land, let alone when they're tresspassing on your land.

If I owned land I could hunt, it would already be slathered with No Tresspassing, Violators Prosecuted signs. Then I'd first hand the photos over the sherrifs dept. If they didn't do anything then I'd post 'em.  

There's nothing really stopping you if you just want to post them, but I'd be careful if a bunch of people started spouting off posts like "all tresspassers should be shot" or something and here you've been putting their pictures up... Could lead to being investigated if those tresspassers met up with unfortunate accidents.

That is true, and  my other thought was that i was just really hoping i wasnt going to post up a pic of someone from this site or one of their friends.


it isnt a big deal that they were hunting, its a big deal they didnt just ask. it wouldnt have bothered me one bit if they would have just asked.

Spur, if you wanted those birds killed, you and I would have already killed them. Those guys were way to close to your house. Turn the pics into Frank and let him get some deputies after them. That is pure BS that they tresspassed!

i have several cameras on all our properties, it is amazing ALL the people that go through your places, at all times during the day or night.  And the kind of people that do it.  Do what i do, keep a file handy with you, and when you catch them, approach them and see what they say, and it is a good idea to notify the local sheriffs office, and give them a file as well.  That way its documented that you did that, and you have had a problem before.

I would post the pics and hope it is not someone or a friend of someone from this site. Tresspassing will always take place weather posted or not. The reason I say this is it also happened to me and my place this year...twice in one day. (And this is not the first time). I don't mean to jack your thread but what happened at my place was people driving through my gate on my driveway....past a privite sign and up to my cabin. I have had road hunters shoot towards my place from a paved county road...find gut piles in my driveway and a$$holes try to give me crap for them being on my place without permission. The last thing I want to do is load my place down every ten feet with posted signs but I think I will have to just for the safety reasons. I do not have trail cams up (YET) but that will be next.
 
Ironbuck was there for the last ones to come through and got a lic. plate. They will recieve something from me in the mail. If they do it again they will be charged for tresspassing. If I get pics..........I WILL POST THEM.

Turn them in to the Game warden. They are state patrol and it is also what they do.

Big deal if they are members!!! Trespassing is the same isn't it. I think we need to have a section on this board for stuff like this or if we see a poacher or something we can post what ever info is gathered on them (pics names lisc plate numbers etc). Kinda like a community shame board. Maybe we will recognize a few people.

i was just really hoping i wasnt going to post up a pic of someone from this site or one of their friends.

 I ran into a similar situation with someone on this site. Hunting in Montana on my friends property and ran into a member that "took a wrong turn". We stopped and waited as he drove up the the main road and stopped to talk to us. Asked if I knew who owned the property and I said yes. He said he had spotted a buck on the ajoining state land and was going to shoot but before he could it walked onto the private land so he left it.

 I didn't think anything of it until later that day my brother and I were walking down that road he had just come out of and found his tracks backed up to a drag. At the beginning of the drag, about 5 yards away, was a big blood spot but no gutpile. Another big puddle where they had dragged the deer to the back of the truck and loaded it in whole. He had a canopy on his truck and the whole time he was standing there lying to me, my brother and M_Ray the buck was in the back.

 After we got home I sent him a PM and pics of the site and asked him if he wanted to tell me the real story, which he did. The part that pissed me off was that he lied to me. If he had come to me and asked if it was alright to go after the deer I would have told him no problem and thanked him for asking.

If you put a sign up that says fee hunting only instead of no trespasing people might drive right on by.

There is a sign kinda like what you just said in GMU 501. Except it said tweekers not violators.

I have caught tresspassers and poachers on my place with my cameras. For that matter that is what two of my cameras are for is tresspassers since my cabin gets broke into about once a year. First time I got pictures I posted them on a couple of the fishing websites becasue the guy had fishing gear with him, got a reply within a couple minutes because people recognized him. Was a local guide up poaching boot springers of my place. Had him arrested for tresspassing. Last winter I got broke into again and sent those pics right to Cowlitz county sheriffs office and the caught him also. Turned out he had been doing break ins up and down I-5 form norht Vancouver to Castle rock and my pics helped get him. SO they do work and at least Cowlitz county will take a look at them as well as WDFW.

I'm sorry that happened... its incredible how many people can walk past a no trespassing sign without even blinking.

A little confession!! I actually tresspast this year in deer season. A buddy his wife and I had walked way into an area that we had not been in before. One of those trips we weren't seeing anything and just kept going. We walked across one clear cut right into the next when a truck drove up to us. We didn't think anything of it. The guy rolls his window down and tells us we are on his land and to turn around. I calmly ask where is yer line. He points to a cedar tree behind us and says that is it and you just walked right past the No Trespassing sign. My buddy and I looked at each other strange as if to say. "did you see it". We asked if we could walk down the road another 100 yards and drop back over the ridge into the timber. The guy got kinda snotty and wouldn't let us. We turned around and walked back the long way. We looked for the sign and it wasn't around.

We would have never passed the sign but someone must have taken it down. We really like the area and were seeing some really big tracks but we won't be going back. Wish I knew who the guy was cause I'd like to see if I could work something out with him to hunt his land.

I'm also thinking of getting a gps so a can overlay an area before I go hunting and see where private land might be before I get into trouble. It would have been bad if we had shot something on his land!!!

There certainly different ethics for everyone. Makes me sick to think of this type of thing >:(. Our cabin burned in 2000. In the 25 years it was there it was broke into twice. Once a mattress and our kitchen utensils were stolen within a month of construction. Then 10 years later a guy broke in and moved in for a few months :yike:, did no damage just moved in. We are going to rebuild this summer and I am not looking forward to the potential issues of having a place 350 miles away that each time you visit you hope is in the same condition you left it. Maybe a reason to get a smart scouter (or 5) :chuckle:

My buddy and I did that on accident last season also.....area new to us......we were on stateland and droped over but I guess about 20 yards down the hill it turned into Private......No signs at all.......ran into the owner hunting it and he told us that somebody probably pulled the signs down but it was truly his land but he went ahead and gave us permission to hunt his land anyway......nice guy.
