nice buck

did you hunt near the river?


Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting.......holy kaka.....What a Ride!

I grew up there and my families been hunting there for 50+ years, I think I know what's allowed and what isn't. You spend alot of time hunting deer in NE Iowa, do you?

In fact.....i do hunt Iowa a bit.

Here you go direct from the Iowa DNR web page:

“Trespass” means entering property without
the express permission of the owner, lessee or person
in lawful possession, with the intent to commit
a public offense; to use, remove therefrom, alter,
damage, harass, or place anything animate or inanimate,
or to hunt, fish or trap on the property. The
term trespass does not mean entering the right-ofway
of a public road or highway.

Railroad right-of-ways
are considered private property.

This paragraph does not prohibit the unarmed
pursuit of game or furbearing animals lawfully
injured or killed which come to rest on or escape to
the property of another.

The OP might care. The way I see it he was just tryin to help out because he saw something that likely sounds illegal that was posted on a public forum. He was just tryin to help out the OP who might want to remove the content.
