Wv Hunter if all that is going on and right on the farm where you hun t and you personally know of people doing this then have you turned them in in my opinion if you know them and dont turn them in you are just as much to blame.

Peppi....I didn't say it is happening where I hunt (our family farm), but in our area.....if you read my post a little better, I was not putting down the folks from WV, just stating the facts as I know them. Like I said, I know alot of ethical, law abiding folks, but I also know alot of folks all over the area (probably a 50 mile area, covering a couple counties) where similar stuff goes on. That doesn't make it right, but it does happen. And yes, I'm sure it happens everywhere to some degree.
As for the game wardens, maybe it's a little better where you are, but we don't have many resources in the counties I hunt...therefore they can only do what they can do. And yes, we have called them numerous times on folks...but I can't personally babysit everyone that hunts in 2 counties.
