By all means don't take a gun when confronting poachers. Get descriptions and license numbers and let the law do their job.

You might drive around at night and record license numbers of any cars you find parked.

Put your local law enforcement phone number on your cell phone so it is at hand.

Don't take any chances with poachers and don't have any reservations about turning in neighbors and locals.

There is a digital game camera on the market that does not flash when taking a picture. It makes no noise either, so poachers have no idea they are getting caught. I had a trail cam stolen this summer by a trespasser who got caught on film. It was a regular flash-style camera so he knew it was there.

I plan to get a couple of the digital cameras so I can catch the SOB.

Stay safe and good luck!
