I went back to the beach today and don't want to leave the missus with that stuff, so will leave it as is till I get back on Monday as then I'll be there for around 3 weeks. Then I'll put a note in a zip lock bag on the camera with my phone number saying that there is not going to be any hunting on my property without my permission. Then he can either pack his stuff and leave or give me a call and then pack up his stuff and leave.
I don't want to just hand it over to a game warden as it could have been a mistake so will give the guy the benefit of the doubt.

Sounds like a wise choice to me.

Got back home yesterday. So had a proper nose around the place where the trail can is. Found a deer feeder there as well now. So I wrote the guy a note and stuck it on the trail cam. I did take the SD card out of the camera and turned it off. Got a nice picture of the guy scattering corn. My neighbor had no idea what was going on back there. I put the picture on my phone and will show it to my neighbor as in a small community like this everyone knows everyone else. It a young guy late 20s early 30's would be my guess. He has had some semi heavy equipment in there pushing a short trail through the bush with what looks like a tractor with a front loader on it, going by the tracks. So I am guessing he is from a farm near by, or borrow the tractor from a farmer near me. As far as I am aware it is not legal in TN to hunt over bait and that setup is put there to do just that. The feeder was empty and the camera out of batteries. So I guess he has not been there for a little while. Which seems strange with deer season going on. I'll wait a week, then hand things over to the DNR I think.

What was the date on the picture of the trespasser, if there was one? It looks very early to put out corn for deer.

What was the last date of the pictures on the camera?

Are there feral hogs or wild boar in your area?

Nope no feral hogs around here. The dates on that camera are messed up. But my suspicion is that this dude does not care much for the game laws. I mean what keep to the seasons if you are trespassing on someones property and hunting over bait, cut down bushes and trees that are not yours. Why bother with sticking to the hunting season?

Forget what I said about being nice about it, as far as I am concerned it is beyond that. Go straight to the wardens and the sheriff. Now he is out of line. He has not only trespassed but now he has destroyed your property and if it is illegal to hunt over bait there, there is that issue too. Take multiple pics of everything, give a copy to the wardens and a copy to the sheriff. I am sorry you gotta go through this Scuba.

It seems bizarrely brazen, if he did not think he had permission. The trail he made should lead back to somewhere.

I have this funny feeling that that is not going to happen. Sneaky ones like that usually don't have it in them to man up to their wrong doing

X2 I'm betting he mistakenly thinks he's perfectly legal.

What’s the date of the pics of you? Whatever amount it’s off for you it’s off the same for him. Easy to figure.

Is the lawnmower better than yours? Could swap them out....I for sure wouldn't go back in there without my pig castrator! I am sure that is a given though. Good luck!

As I said, the camera was out of batterie juice so did not take a pic of me. And I left it there and only took the SD card of it.
