[QUOTE="Spurhunter, post: 5827523, member: 5695"] I started duck hunting on the MS River in the 90s. Back then you could hunt anything that was flooded that you could access by water from the river without getting out of your boat. Seems the big money that is taking over hunting (especially duck hunting) is affecting the legal system too. Every year you hear about more trouble. The rich buy the islands and then there's a dispute about what water is public, when are you trespassing, etc. Nobody seems to know what the law really is. I hear things like "if you are hunting out of a boat and your boat is anchored or your decoy weights are touching the bottom you are trespassing." Then you have state lines coming together at the river and more confusion. Many of the lakes and chutes we used to hunt on the river are now private. Big money came in and bought all the land around the water and closed them down. Money and greed will eventually make any kind of hunting an exclusive sport for the rich. [/QUOTE]
