It would make me feel like I was stealing. I wouldn't take it and keep it, but if it is up night after night I might take it and drop it at the game wardens office.
As years go by I run into more and more duffuses. I feel guilty posting, but I did post a quarter this year. It's not mine, but belongs to a friend. I have never used a camera before so decided to take one from my back yard and try it for fun. Someone opened it, turned it off and yanked my memory stick. They didn't take anything, but they did delete all the pictures.
Two days later a stand shows up ten feet from where my camera is at. The guy drove a four wheeler a half mile through corn and sunflowers and built a stand. He must be afraid of height because he has eight four inch screws in each one foot section of 2X4 that he is using for steps. Then he uses 14 steps in three rows to climb ten feet. What's up with that?
So the landowner asked me to bring as many posted signs by as I wanted to and post anything I want to hunt. I could have posted a lot of land, but I only posted that quarter.
Since posting another guy put up a ladder stand. I know he is using it because every other day there is another five gallons of corn. I know there are four different guys hunting that belt now and none have permission. It gets a little worse every year.
I think I will hide a camera to take a picture of the first camera to see who is messing with it.
