Title: Fir Island Quality Hunt Rule Breakers
Post by: h2ofowlr on October 18, 2011, 09:21:52 PM
It is supposed to be one rig per field.  These guys had 3 parking locations "3 fields" tied up while just hunting one field.  They were keeping anyone else from hunting around them.  In order for the program to work, you have to follow the rules.  You can have up to 4 guys in each field, but you are stuck carpooling with only one parking spot available at each marked sign.

Too early in the season to be playing this game again, especially since they only have about 8 QH fields open at this current time due to late harvest.

Call the region four office and send them the pictures!   It is private land so the the bio in charge can talk to the land owner and then all of them can be 86 from the properties!  Then when agent contacts them at the site they can get a nice criminal trespass charge.  At the very least they can get some extra special attention from an agent.  Been known the occasionally ruin someones hunt.

That's *censored*!!! Pisses me off when I see other hunters purposely taking away someones ability to use a spot just because they don't want anyone hunting around them.

Turn their azz in!!!!  :tup:

I didn't recognize the rigs other than the black one.  They would drop it off in 17 & 18 last season.  Then hunt Polsen RD.  Just ask them to set the decoys at the multiple field corners if the are going to group up.  They were in the far NE corner.  The plates were taken down and PM sent.  Better me being the reminder as I don't issue tickets. :tup:

Do they have the maps posted somewhere of which fields are participating in the Quality Hunt program this year on Fir Island? Last year they were on the WDFW website but I cant seem to find them this year...

I shot 3 in Edison last year....The sheet on Fir Island makes me sick to even go there anymore. What people will stoop to shoot a snow goose.

Doesn't matter. The term "poaching" has no legal affect in WA. It's more of a slang term for somebody exceeding limits or closed season. It's like to some people fishing with barbed hooks in a barbless area they consider poaching, but others only consider unlawful taking of big game poaching.
