I actually almost got a ticket once for picking up someones spent shells. I was duck hunting and on my walk back out I was picking up the trash I passed. Got stopped by the GW and he looked through my spent shells that I had been picking up and just throwing in the same bag as my shells. He noticed they werent steal. He started giving me the second degree, but once I explained that I was picking up crap left from other hunters, all was good. Ticks me off that I walk back to my truck with more than I went out with.
We interrupt this marriage for hunting season.

This morning I went to scout a private spot that had supposedly not been hunted this week. A few weeks ago it was loaded with birds and I wanted to take my boy and two of his buddies there this weekend. Hmmmmm, no birds. Drove along the east side of the property and there were hundreds of spent shells, empty beer cans, and feathers. Somebody was even nice enough to get some corn from the field, take if off the cob, and put it in a nice pile. Salt in the wound the @#%@#$@s were squatters. That sux. Did you tell the land owner? If he and his buds made the mess you are SOL.

Couldn't agree more fellas. I thought fishermen were trashy till I spotted an area yesterday littered with what looked like a case of empty hulls, an empty box of blue rocks and many beer cans. No wonder land owners don't want us trespassing on their properties!

I picked up over 100 empty shells and water bottles that a group left this morning. It takes like 30 seconds to do, I don't get why people can't just clean up after themselves

Cleaned up again this morning in front of hunters to make a point. They were laughing at me. I hate them.

Did you tell the land owner? Hopefully they care about keeping their property clean and will not allow that group to hunt there again. I have seen some land owners not care, amazing but true. I picked up a whole trash bag of hulls on private one time, told the owner what I did and he did not even care, most of the hulls were probably his lol. Hey I don't pick mine up when I'm on my property....It'll give my kids something to do later in the year and they're still young enough that they think it's some kind of game. Definitely pick them up when you're on someone elses place though, you'd think some things would just be common sense.

It is 100% disrespectful. Monday we picked up over 200 shells....in two sitting spots! It is disgusting how people could disrespect another man's property like that. I will just keep picking all them up just because I know it is the right thing to do. The only upside is I found some AA hulls, so when I do decide to start reloading that is less money I have to spend.

And thanks a lot cleaning your birds on the hunting spots.
Now all the good spots are full of ants and the place stinks like rotten eggs.
Duck hunting cant get fast enough now.

No S***! Clean your birds at home, I know they are apart of nature but some landowners do not want to see mounds of feathers all over there property.

The farmer just texted me:

Thats just sums it up.

Is this a lease or a public land that people are trashing? Idiots need to learn the pack it in, pack it out rule. A couple hulls overlooked is a common but if there's cans wrappers and hulls all over its just lazy, don't give a damn A holes. Go ahead boys screw it up for yourselves and everyone else.

I guess it just goes along with everything else we see these days. Many people just don't have respect for anything or anyone. You're a good sportsman beaversnipe. Don't let anyone lead you to believe otherwise.

My biggest pet peave is this. It is no wonder farmers don't let anyone hunt their property anymore. If you leave trash on my place, you will never have the privilege of hunting it again.

Zero trash on our lease, but then again there hasn't been any shooting either.

And soon enough, those who lease the public land will grow tired of the slobs that hunt. I hunt private and rarely see mant hulls.
I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.

The spot I hunted today was very very clean and had been hunted quite a bit. There are some good spots and good people. Need to tell people about the good and the bad...
I think I picked up maybe one or two hulls total and there was no other trash.
