I have and stood right next to the CO when they gave the SOB a ticket:lol:

 

Is this the same guy you told us about last year that shot a buck during the EAS????????

 

The only thing that I wouldn't report would be if I found somebody baiting.
I'm not going to break the law, but I'm not going to rat somebody out for violating the ban when I feel that it was wrong in the first place.

Are there other neighbors around? If there is, how would he know it was you and not someone else? If you're the lone neighbor and it would be obvious that you called, I agree it would be a touchy situation. But I love to see violators burn.

No, that was another friend.

Yes there are and I wouldn't turn any of them in either. He doesn't know but has a good idea who did.

 

Is there any more to the story?? I mean, are you cordial with him, do you talk to him very often? Maybe ask him why he does what he does??
Or tell him that the CO came over and really put the screws to you as well, thinkin' you were breaking the law too, and that they were really gonna be watching, both of you.

 

I personally wouldn't, unless it was something that threatened your family's safety.

I'm sure he already knows you can kick his tail if he were to do that, so I'm sure he's not doing that.

Like you say...you have to live next to him...probably best to just talk to him and say "stop shooting deer at night."

 

Hard for me to answer really. How close of a neighbor is he to you? Is he otherwise a good man, parent, husband? Is he a jerk? Is he receptive to good advice? etc etc

Great reply....but there is a grey area here. I don't care who it is, spotlight shooting (whatever you want to call it) if a first class felony in my book:rant: Happens every year around us. I would run any of my neighbors up the creek for that, and I think most of you would. Now would I turn them if I happened to see a bait pile near my fencerow, NO, but would make a phone call to them and tell them that they might want to be a little more conspicuous. Now, I do have a neighbor I would rather see default on his taxes and get booted out by the county, but I also have to live next door to that DB and want to at least make it bearable, but because tresspassing and night shooting are such hot-button issues with me, I vote yes

He is very cordial, been his neighbor for 10+ years, he is always willing to help and never causes any commotion. They can watch me all they want, don't have a problem there. I think he got the message last year as he was pretty shook up after it all went down.

Sounds like a pretty good neighbor....

 

I guess it all boils down to your personal character.

I would agree, talk to him and state that you really would prefer not call the COs.

 

I guess it all boils down to your personal character.

So you have a questionable character if you mind your own business?

Don't see it.

 

I voted NO but I guess it depends on the violation.

If he learned his lesson hopefully he won't put you in a position where you even have to worry about him doing something illegal. Pretty crappy situation.

 

I dbout very seriously that I would. I have a tendacey to mind my own buisness.

 

I would have a real hard time turning in my neighbor to a CO.

there would have to be an extreme sitiuation to provoke me to do something so un-neighborly.

If he puts me in that position, I will deal with it face to face and still wouldn't call...That's just me, leave me alone and I'll leave you alone..

Some may think "questionable character", I look at it as being neighborly. Just as I wouldn't turn you in for speeding .

 

What's really nice is to have a CO as a neighbor....:evil:

 

Is his wife hot lookin'?

 

Is his wife hot lookin'?

:lol::lol::lol: Actually, not bad at all :lol::lol::lol:

 

Yep he's as good as guilty and I would call, however I would require it be anonymous because I still have to live next to the guy. So does my family.

 

I would not rat him out.But i would hope hes only shooting does and not bucks.If he nailing bucks then i would say something to him about it.Leave them for the real hunters.I knew a guy that dropped 3 bucks in one yr.Hung them on his wall.What a joke.I told him what i thought about his poached bucks :lol:.Funny thing it came back to bite him in his ass.Next few yrs he had nothing on his land.And cryed like a baby.He even blamed his neighbor for partying to much outside.If he shooting for meat np here,Mich
