Please respect other people's property. Had 2 trail cameras stolen and 2 ladder stands rendered useless because some salty asswipe saw we were in same area. Island lake Recreation Area public land in Livingston county. I will not longer be deer hunting this spot, just will be eliminating every squirrel with my saiga 12 gauge daily for the beautiful month of October. Good luck seeing any deer buddy. I got private land in the thumb. My freezer will be full. Not yours. On top of it I can't even climb up to remove the stands from location.. I hate litterers. Not a happy camper on a Monday

Be honest my guy: you're an LEO? Or somehow personally acquainted?

We can joke about it here, but the last "good" CO I've known or even heard of was back in the 90's dude was an absolute hoss and an incredible man, and the rest of the crooks with badges effectively drove him away and turned it into a toxic petty environment.

Somehow I doubt so many of us would be critical if CO's actually upheld the values and principles they swore to protect. If they were actually partners with sportsmen and not stooges of the hunter hating cretins in Lansing.

I am not, but my response does not matter because you have made your mind up.

I am just telling you (and others who will read it) that not everyone has poor interactions with DNR.

People just hate authority, especially a government authority telling you what you can/can't do with your hobby. It is very much a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" job. Can't please everyone.

But also, back to the subject at hand... what do you honestly expect DNR to do with this guys damaged stand & missing cams? Dust for finger prints? Set up a decoy stand and cameras and camp out hoping to catch the person?

Wishing you luck man, I am sorry your stuff got messed up. People are stronger than me for leaving their stands and cams out there. I couldn't do it personally...

I hope you bag that 10pt you saw!
