Mn you can retrive but dont have a weapon with ya,asking is allways best but if push comes to shove the it time for Mr Warden to come out...Ive never had troubles yet....What happens around here big city people buy big properties and become a-hol's..some will drive around and watch you hunt(gun season is the big one)to make sure you are staying away from thier property.I have a guy(north of my property)that came from thebig city and bought 80 acres he wont let you hunt it but then asks everyone around him if he can hunt thier property and cant understand why people say NO..TWO FACE is what I call it....They think thier (you know what)dosnt stink and it gets worst every year......
