Hope you find them.
'Hog Doggers' are our greatest problem where I live. They go wherever they want, whenever they want. NO regard for property lines.
Spartans ask not...how many, but where!

Looks like I got a poacher problem also. Camera got a photo but its a bad one and does not show their faces. This is about 3/4 of a mile back in my property from the road. I'll be sending to GW in the morning.

A couple of laminated photos of them posted around the property has done wonders for me in the past. Add a note that says "the law is on notice and they have the better photos of you" and if they see them I doubt they will be back.
Poachers are cowards and when they know they've been caught on camera it generally pushes them somewhere else.

JMHO- 90% of people that trespass and poach are locals and neighbors. They watch you come and go and diddle with your personal property while you're gone. I've had a lot of people declare that they don't have a problem at their lease, but they've just never seen any signs of any trespassing or poaching. If there's nobody there full time, you can bet there's someone watching you come and go. It's just the way it is with people these days. Some of the people I've talked to justify their trespassing by saying something like " well old mr. so-and-so always let us do whatever we pleased when he owned this " Those are the ones that vandalize your stuff and burn your RV and fill your tractor with water

If you recognize or know these poachers/trespassers in the Canton area please let me know. They were caught on one of our MANY cameras attempting to avoid all our visible cameras while making themselves at home. Near Canton, Tx. We've had farm equipment and cameras stolen and vandalized. The property is surrounded by purple marked trees with "No Trespassing" and "No Hunting" signs everywhere. The thought of someone so bold, with zero fear or respect for private property simply pisses me off. Game Warden and local LEO already involved. Should not have posted here. Should have just SSS.

I've had the problem for years South of Bowie. I don't live there and the GW can't camp out there. I have 6 feeders with cams. Also a couple of no flash cams in areas that should catch someone. A couple of years ago I went to pull cams and cards at the end of the season. He/they left the cams but pulled the cards.
I don't live there and the GW can't camp out there. I would like to catch him/them but realize that I will probably be confronting an armed hunter/hunters. That could cause trouble. Grown Grandson and his buddy hunt there and they are young enough (21) to have more balls than brains.
Without a sense of urgency, nothing ever happens.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley, Rancher Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP

the stupidity of some of these idiots... I have a longtime fishing charter customer that is a retired marine that was force recon for umpteen years. this is one bad dude (thankfully he is as kind and gentle as he is lethal.). he laid in a creek bed for 2 nights to physically detain a local scumbag that was growing Marijuana on his farm. the scumbag had no idea he was even being watched until the cold barrel was touching the back of his head.
you take a huge and stupid chance sticking your hand in someone else's cookie jar, there are some truly lethal and scary people out there that own cookie jars. hope you catch them!

Of course, the marine spec-ops laying in a creek for 2 nights would be my preference, but, alas, I never signed on with the devil dogs. 'Hope I never come across evidence of trespassers/poachers, but if I do, I will screw with their minds, at the very least.
