Had a guy climbing into boats on public water in eastern NC threatening to kill them over some ducks a while back. His mistake was he climbed into the boat of a game commisioner and the cousin of the Governor. Not sure what the outcome was but if he had tried that with our group he would likley have been eating some steel shot. Given his previous actions I'm surprised he didn't. Locals on the Core Sound can get like that as well...they spend a lot of money each year baiting ducks and don't appreciate dingbatters hunting "their" ducks. Sad what folks will do over a duck or deer, prayers to the young men's families. Unless they leveled firearms against the old codger and it wasn;t out of self defense, they didn't deserve that.
