Idiot arrested for poaching turkeys
Last week, not more than 10 miles from my land in Louisiana,a man was arrested for shooting two turkeys in a pasture from the road. He stated he got out of his truck and snuck up on two gobblers in a pasture on private land off the road and shot them. Someone who witnessed it called the G.W. Good for that person. They arrested the man at his home, which was a good 15 miles away from where he poached.He was arrested for shooting a firearm from a public road, trespassing, shooting over the legal daily limit, and hunting without a turkey license and stamp. What an idiot. Unfortunately there are thousands of slobs like this who get away with it. I can't understand how a person can just walk on someone's land not having a clue who they are and do something like this.What pisses me off is, most of us turkey hunters work our butts off to get a longbeard, and an idiot like this just rides around shooting turkeys off the road making it harder for law abiding hunters to bag one. At least they caught this guy.
