I agree 100% and if your going to tear down the one I built too build another one 20 yards away at least make it as good as the one you tore down and pillaged all of the material from.

I understand that but every public pond I know has some sort of a blind built...and just because theres a blind there dosent mean there are going to be ducks there...I agree on picking up spent shells...

I pick up all trash. Everything that comes in goes out. Usually end up picking way more than what I brought in. On public some people are real a $$holes about leaving trash (not just hulls) which is disrespectful on many levels and can jeapordize our hunting privileges on public. But a pile of my own shells from taking a full strap or dove vest at a honey hole? Oh, thats a pleasure not a burden! Gotta protect my spots! For that matter i never clean birds at my spot either, I leave my coyote offerings where the birds are not

The gf and I picked up a tons of hulls and trash from one spot recently. What's funny is that some weren't even shot. What wasn't funny was a lot of them were illegal shot sizes. Another not so funny thing was it looked like a lithuanian army marched through that spot.

Another not so funny thing was it looked like a lithuanian army marched through that spot. This reminds me of two years ago...some guy with a 20 gauge shooting yellow hulls was hunting a spot of mine. Finally ran into him. Asked if he picked up his hulls and boxes. He said no, hat the sun and elements just break em down so fast it aint worth it. I said oh really and invited him to see the bags of his trash in my bed. He got the message. Ended up making a hunting buddy...his lab saved me many a wet pair of boots after that!

I used to pick up other people's trash. I'm too dang jaded now. I mean if I see a stray hull or two, I'll pick it up. If I come across a trash pile on an army corps lake, it stays there. Let those fools hunt in their own mess. For 30 years I have been picking up trash after other people and I'm tired of it.

I also pick up others peoples shells when I'm out. It bothers me a little bit but I'd rather have a clean hunting area than an area with shells everywhere. Still doesn't compare to the amount of shells I see during dove season though. As far as tearing down blinds. I won't tear someone else's blind, I'll use it when I'm hunting tht area. The way I see if that there's a blind on public water and you woke your butt up early enough to beat other people there. Then you should have the right to use it regrdless if it's someone else's blind. You don't want anyone else to use it, then tear it down. But I do tear any blind that I build so others won't know that I have been there.......

Pick up all trash and shells we see and tear down any blind we see. Where we hunt typically it is guides on public water that build them.
