Odd not to be using a suppressor
Won't be long .... especially if there's a reward in it. :P
Only thing I know It wasn't me :)

The article reads as they are trophie hunting ? . If His photo wasn't posed there would have been a good chance his mug would have been on the front of a hunting mag in a months time photo shopped with his trophie . Take a special kind of arsehole to poach a trophie ! .
$20,000 worth of venison that is a lot of steak. He don't have gumboots.
No trail of lion browns either ! you're free to go :thumbsup:Quote:

Ha ha. My mate texted me I was in the local paper a few weeks back :P
One comment on the facebook page says the 'temptation' is too great, what with all the money the farmers are making. But these poachers are just shooting and leaving the animals so money plays no part in it. One thing that puzzles me, surely it is legal to shoot poachers? Or should be.
No. You are not allowed to shoot poachers. Nor are you likely to be able to in the future.Quote:

You're fugly but not as bad as the fella in the pic.
Had a fag gun on him as well so couldn't be you either way.
Love how everytime their is an incident of poaching it is always dramatized to the point that someone is going to get shot to esculate a situation.

Dawson runs foul of the council [emoji23]. Cops couldn't get him so they set the clipboard brigade on him [emoji422]️[emoji412]Quote:

Can't poop in your own backyard I suppose. Well you can but you pay the price eventually.
Maybe he just popped in to ask for directions ;)Quote:

So basically if someone is caught poaching they just get a Tresspass notice and basically can wrap up as many of those as they want? if they are caught with a farmers trophy stag they can be charged and get reparations? probly at $5 a week for the next so many years, no big deterrent then aye.
this is more a question than a statement.......
The Bayview Cop addressed a Deerstalkers meeting I was at last year to talk about the poaching that was going on in the same area this Game Camera photo was taken.Quote:

To start with.

The old school rules used to be get caught once get a bluey "trespass notice " not really a big deal as far as a learning curve goes but get caught a second time while the trespass notice is still current and they could prosecute ...but these days get caught once you could loose more than your gun licence ...and you probably wont get it back...farmers have basically had a gutsful of rude arrogant tossers wandering around leaving gates open and dogs worrying there stock with a I don't give a F#@k attitude not to mention theft that's rite up there and the cops like to put the 2 in the same basket sadly its ruined it for the good guys I cant believe the latest trend...hunting rights !!! wtf...anyone else heard that phrase ? it reminds me of the UK .
He came to ours too and in all honesty I found he came across like a real asshole. Almost like he had a personal interest.Quote:

Looks like a lost yank to me, get many photo of poachers not often this clear. We need to name and shame these people they are costing us much more than taking our deer. Private land owner don't like giving permission for hunters to hunt their land remembering only the poacher.
Post that Man Pat ;)Quote:

People may recognise who's in your pictures even if the pictures aren't that great, especially if they are looking at themselves or their mates :ORLY:
I've caught Four people on my DOC land Game camera so far ...... Myself , My Hunting Mate, A Fella from the near by farm and a Member of the Hastings Deerstalkers.
All are legit .... no poaching going on here.
Cheers
Pete
Surprised you saw a Hastings member on public land! [emoji4]Quote:

He had only been in the country a week , had been decked out in all the gee whaas at a local Hunting & Fishing store and had told his misses he was going hunting in the Kawekas.
I found him in the Ruahine.
we climbed out of the creek and I took him back to his car. That made him much happier.
Don't think he hunts at all now.
Cheers
