Public land...people acting like its private

I don't want to feel that I have to walk on pins and needles because of a picture. Like I said, even if it was on public land, there are areas like this that are legal.

My friends, family, and myself have spent alot of money and time fixing land that the dnr is responsible for fixing and I don't want to be treated like a redneck hillbilly with an atv that likes to go muddin' just because of a picture and someone else's personal judgement.

Like I said, it's easier to just simply ask.

As for having only a few posts, I too went for my own assumptions and apologize. Some people just lurk and jump in when they think something is wrong or they don't like. I take this forum as a community with seperate but similar goals.

Roofer, it looks like your still bickering with yourself.

does this really help matters any?

Look guys, I know Roofer personally and as a DNR Instructor, there is no one person on this site, let alone in this state, who is a bigger steward to the environment than Roofer. I have been to his cabin and have seen the mess left behind by unscrupulous slobs which Roofer has repaired.

As Roofer mentioned, ask before we jump to conclusions. He would be more than happy to give an explanation where his photos were taken.

Now, with that being said, let's put this issue to rest now. Keep in mind that as years go by, what we might interpret in the laws today, are going to be different tomorrow.

No more snide comments, no more poking jabs at anyone. This site is the best that I frequent and it's all because of the members. Let's not turn FM into one of those "other sites".

Thank You.

[bowfin please note:]

Recon,

your statement about someones avatar:

so looking at a picture of an atv being riden in water does little to impress me, actually it makes me ----ed!!

violates forum policy twice. It is a veiled attack and you and bowfin are going off topic in an obvious unfriendly direction. Please be sure to read forum policy before posting again. Let's please get back on topic as well.

Keep it fun and friendly please.

i had a problem with some guys while bow hunting this year. i was hunting some public land that had several monster bucks. 3 guys on four-wheelers did not want use to hunt there because they were going to rifle hunt it. everyday i hunted it they would drive by my stand on there four-wheelers and go drive around in the bedding area. it turned all the deer nocturnal. i just don't understand some people.

I saw this topic and had to post. This year for duck opener we got to our spot at 5:00 a.m. We were outside the truck talking in the WMA parking area. We were going to hunt a small pond that was a 40 by 100 yards. Only one party can hunt this swamp without shooting the other party. About 6:00a.m a truck drives by than pulls into the ditch about 200 yards away from our vehicles. They procede to get out and run to this spot, its pertty obvious that we were going to hunt the same spot. I walked down and talked to these guys and politly asked them where they were going to hunt. They said they were going to hunt the same pond that we were. I informed them that we had planned to hunt this spot, instead of saying oh will find another spot, they said they had hunted this pond for the last five years and proceded to point out 5 or 6 other spots that we could hunt. I told them that we had been in the WMA parking lot since 5:00 a.m and I told them I know its public land, but next time I would be a little more considerate and find another spot or talk to us and see where we were going to be hunting. They still didn't get it so we left and went to another spot. It definetly urked me because these guys had no clue, this was their spot and this is where they were going to hunt. I realize it's public land but a little consideration goes a long way.

I have to say it does annoy the [PoorWordUsage] out of me. It happend to me this past deer season. I had my stand in a section of woods and was the only one hunting it for bow season until gun opened up and out of towners from michagin came in and drove down the path where they were not suppose to be and camped there. I walked back and we talked a little bit and after i saw all of that i went to go pull my stand and they tryed to stop me saying that his buddies are back there and you might spook them or they think you are a deer. I didnt care, i walked and talked with my friend like normal and wasnt quiet at all cause we knew we werent going to hunt there at all. Then when i went to go look for my stand they took my markers down so that i couldnt find it. Fortunatly i found it and we left making noise.

I know i was being a little bit of a [jerk-bait] making noise, but i was pretty mad that someone from another state come up here and try to say we have this spot and hunted it in the past years.

I hope i dont run into this continuly every year.

We were duck hunting some wma we hunted it since i was a little kid.There is enough room for a lot of people to duck hunt here without shooting at each other.We get out there at four o'clock in our blind waiting for shooting time.When a couple guys a kid come out there we flashed a light at them so they knew were our set up was going to be.They pulled there boat like twenty or thirty yards from our boat.Thats were they stayed to.Come shooting time they made the biggest mistake ever we shot every duck flying in from our way.We were nice enough to let a couple go so the kid could shoot at least.They never even got a duck.His dad must not of duck hunted much to be like that.

    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
