You should post up camp there on that fencline. Camp fire, cold beer, and a little max stalling.

I am reading a lot about going down to a level that we as outdoors folks should not go. I would like to know a few things I am new to hunting and the laws with it, so can some one tell me some thing about about feeders on fence lines?

1. Is it legal to have one right on the fence line? Yes

2. I do know you can not shoot over across the fence but can you shoot down the fence on your side? Yes
3. Is it hurting anyone with it being there? If they are shooting down the fence line no

4. Is it ok to break the law to try to get him/her to move the feeder? No

5. doing some of the things I read on here today sounds like it will be breaking the Harassment of Hunters, Trappers, or Anglers (Sportsmen's Rights Act) is it? yes but not all

6. Is it worth taking a chance to be punished by a fine of $200 to $2000 and/or 180 days in jail? No
In short should we as sportsmen and women go down to a level that will make us look bad to the rest of the world, we have enough problems right now with out making more for us? If they are going to be shooting across your fence I would stop them ASAP my daughter and wife go with me sometimes and I need to make sure it is safe for them. It is just not right for someone to shoot at your property. Lets say I do this with my 7mm ok I shoot a deer next to your fence and hit it. Say I am hunting 100yards from your fence but I shoot towards your fence to hit the deer my bullet goes threw the deer and goes say 200 yards past your fence what could I possible hit that is within 200yards of your fence.(ALOT)

We all know others read this let show the everyone we are better than this.

Since finding leases can be a pain I have considered buying a small couple of acres strip of land next to a big hunting ranch. How far should a feeder be away from their fence? The firing lane would be parallel.

nope, no law about where a feeder can be placed.

But, their bullet cannot cross the property line.

We have had this problem a time or two lots of silver streamers and those little cheap whirly wind mills on the fence work pretty well and send the message. I have also been known to pour some real stinky stuff on my side of the fence. Just make sure it is natural and not a threat to the enviroment.

That rules out your old jockey shorts!

Just another example of the many situations that occur in hunting where just because it may be legal, that doesn't make it ethical.

I always use this example to challenge those who try to claim that anything is legal must also be considered ethical. There may be no laws against sleeping with another man's wife, but ...

that easy to fix a pvc pipe and a push after a time or two they will move it
