Some people are just idiots
I hunt a marsh for ducks all the time and it's public land and I have no problem with that. My problem is people shooting hoodies and then leaving them to rot, now one corner of the marsh is hardly bareable to jump anymore. Also the "skybusters" must of shot at least 2 boxes of shells and left all of their hulls out there. So me and my dad picked most of them up, but there's still a few here and there. I'm ending my rant now, so whatdo you guys think??

That's unfortunate. We sometimes hunt public ground here in Kansas. We see a lot of the same things. It is folks like that, that give hunters a bad name. I appreciate your efforts to make it right.
Good luck next time.

You are doing the right thing. Keep up the good work. Also if you see someone shoot a duck of any species and leave it to rot, turn them in. We don't need slobs like that ruining our sport for us. They are guilty of wanton waste and definitely would be arrested by a CO if you give him the info!

I see the same BS here in Ohio on public land .
I picked up a 5 gallon bucket of hulls the other day .
But a lot will be used for reloading

I agree with DR, if you see any animal shot and left, please...please call your local law enforcement, and turn in any info you can obtain without being confrontational with the offending party. It is through these calls that we will be able to catch, ticket, and prosecute people that are in violation of the game laws. Thanks for the hull pick up, it shows you have a great hunting ethic, andgood luck on your hunting season.

I think Utah is Skybuster Capitol of the World. Soooo many of those people here on public land. I always wait til it gets cold and freezing, then all the hardcore waterfowlers go out.
