I see several folks post they have permission, it needs to be everybody or nobody, tired of seeing them empty for days on end when I want to hunt a area and I feel like I should move on because of them even though nobody is in them
Probably gonna get raked over the coals

It ain't gun season if you're not finding cigarette butts and snack wrappers at the base of a tree

I always leave the woods with pockets full of others trash, the only thing I don't pickup is bottles with unknown liquid in them.
Public hunting and fishing sucks because of the public.
I never understood why there is a specific rule for trout fishing on Tellico & Citico that states only one rod/reel per person can be at the water. That was until I fished a local public pond that had been stocked with winter stocking trout. People were down there with 3-6+ rod/reel setups spaced out down the bank. Essentially there were 3-4 people that had an entire 100 yard side of the pond blocked to keep other people from fishing there. Of course there are some people that would just go down in between their rods and fish anyway. Same kind of person that if they see you catching fish on the river, they'll start heading your way and try to stand on the same rock you're standing on. Or get in the boat with you lol. When I hunt or fish, I want to be away from people even if that means I'm not in the best place or spot. I like the solitude.
