[QUOTE="MS_Strut, post: 5821160, member: 22863"] I agree with the challenges public land can present. It has made me a better hunter. The person showing up before first light or first in general has the right to the spot. Period. If someone wants to claim "their spot" and shows up late they are in the wrong to react at all (other than moving to plan B) if it's public. Regardless, of whether they've been hunting the sign all year or just put the camera up. To think that they can run someone off because they are monitoring the public area with a camera is hunter harassment. Obviously there are people who will make a big deal out of this type of scenario. I am not one of them. Again, they are the problem, not the person who wakes up earlier and shows up before them. I've turned around and walked out silently many times after spotting another hunter. Even if they are just on the path of the direction or spot where I am trying to get. That's part of it on public and creates a new challenge for your hunt. It's not always fun but sometimes it turns into a blessing. There isn't an animal that I hunt that is worth a confrontation in the woods with weapons/guns involved. They can have it. I would 100% report the person to a game warden immediately if they show any hostility towards me though. And would be even more ecstatic that I have a picture of them from my cell cam to show the game warden's too. Maybe I could pursuit another offense for them messing with my property if there is one but I doubt that's a thing. [/QUOTE]
